A must visit when in Graton. This shop is a favorite among the many antique and vintage shops in Sonoma. Constant turnover and a good mix of material keeps things fresh and the folks behind the counter are lovely too. Some good rustic items outside in the side yard too and often a half off cart out front.

So after this shop was recommended to me I have been excited to visit and made it there today, a quiet Tuesday on this tiny main street of Graton. The outside of the building is completely charming with striped awnings and large display windows. When I walked towards the the entrance I was delighted to be greeted by a little dog on the bench in front, then by another, and another and yes one more! Certainly the best welcome at any business I have ever had by four beyond sweet and friendly dogs of assorted breeds. I would have been happy enough with that experience alone, which made my day, but the shop was why I came. I really enjoyed the the layout and creative displays by the several vendors who share this coop antique store. The shop is well curated, not packed to the gills, like others. The prices and selection are affordable and eclectic. I highly recommend the visit, come for the dogs, stay for the shopping.

The space is shared by a variety of people who love antiques, ephemera, and vintage. Fascinating miniature curio-shop, arranged in masterful signature vignettes that reflect the loves and cravings of the individual vendors. Is it hyperbola to compare to the Paris flea markets? Our tiny neighborhood Marché aux Puces de Saint-Ouen? Peut être. Violin sonatas played live at the counter when Alison was there. Senseless wandering welcome.

I just love this shop! Expect the unexpected here. A true gem tucked away in the tiny hamlet of Graton. Great merchandise at reasonable prices, helpful and genuine customer service, simply a little shop with good vibes and merchandise displayed in charming vignettes. Also, they are very pet-friendly here, and almost every dealer has provided a better life for at least one rescue animal. Worth a day trip off the beaten path. There are several tasty restaurants in town, as well as an art gallery.

I LOVE everything about this great store... the prices! The wonderful helpful, friendly staff. The selection of everything from "soup to nuts" in wonderful condition. The "back room" finds. Even if your not in the buying mood don't pass up this great gem, is a delight to just wander through the store and DO read about the wonderful dog, Mr. Ryder, who sadly to say, is no longer with us, but you not want to miss out on his story or the store that carries on his name.

I do love this little shop! A friend of mine introduced me to it last fall and I go whenever I am up in the area. Great customer service, dog friendly and reasonable prices. Very well procured items - these folks have a great eye.

Reasonable prices. I purchased a lovely vintage ring and admire and love it daily. It is worth a stroll in. There's something for everyone. They will deal with you as well if you ask.

I was lured in by their 1/2 off rack located right outside the entrance. This shop is quite a neat little blast through the past. It has a little bit of everything.... Ranging from plastic doll appendages all the way to original 1920's flapper gowns. The entire shop has the rustic antique vibe... It's really quite lovely. The prices were actually pretty decent compared to the quality and age of each item. The customer service was great as well.
