Tiny little hole in the wall in the heart of beautiful and charming Menlo Park. The clerks have a heart of gold. Affiliated with the American Cancer Society so you're doing a good deed by donating there, or shopping there. The jewelry selection leaves much to be desired. Only the cheaper looking jewelry is displayed, and in a haphazard manner.

I always enjoy popping in to see what The Shop has in stock. They are a higher-end resale shop that benefits the Junior League of Palo Alto-Mid Peninsula, a nonprofit training women to be leaders in our community, and that contributes to projects to get/keep girls and women in STEM careers. The Shop carries designer clothing, shoes, and accessories for men/women/children, but also mid-range items that are in style and in good condition. They have housewares including decorative items, dishes, china, glassware, candle sticks, etc. as well as books and a few nice children's toys. The team does a great job of curating their merchandise to only carry items in pristine condition. The end-of-season sales are pretty great, too. I've found a number of cute outfits, purses, shoes, and other items here! They are also really helpful if you want to donate items. Just ring the doorbell at the back door and they will help unload your items. You'll receive an itemized donation receipt by email afterwards, making it super easy to claim a tax deduction for your charitable gift.

I enjoyed shopping at this second hand store. I found a ten dollar Vera Bradley purse. I will be back the next time I'm in the Menlo Park area

I needed something a little different to wear and was pleasantly surprised by the variety and brand names on the clothes. Wonderful women there, clean, fun clothes!

Very cute shop with variable prices. I was able to purchase a cute sleeveless top for $5, which I consider a steal considering the original price was closer to $50.

Donated better items from my closet and received a super fair tax receipt for my clothing, shoes, and home decor items. The staff (setting up an appointment, reviewing my items, correspondence afterwards) was excellent and really a pleasure to work with. I'll be sure to call The Shop for future donations to a good cause.

** During Quarantine Review ** I love thrift shopping so when my good friend recommended this spot as a bay area gem I definitely wanted to check it out. On my visit I was able to browse in with no wait; however, I believe it's a limit of 7 shoppers at any given time. The selection is very well curated and the brands they carried were all very high end. Majority of the clothes looked as if they were maybe worn once and a number of them still had original price tags. I saw Tory Burch, MaxMara, Saint John, just to name a few. The few items I saw were in the size 6-10 range a tad larger than my go-to size. There was a brand new with tags J Crew White Pompon sweater that I was eyeing (Originally Priced $128) and it was priced at $50. It's certainly a bargain considering it still has the original tags, but the pricing of many garments looked closer to consignment prices as opposed to a thrift range. The prices here are much higher than what I'm use to, but if you have somewhere fancy to be, they will surely have something nice for you to wear!

This is a nice looking thrift store. Goodwill it is not though. The stuff seems to be curated nicely. I was looking at their tea pot sets and other delicate items. They had these really nice plates with a gold leaf design that I liked. Prices are not cheap though; the tea sets were definitely like $50+ if not more. I also even saw a Tiffany's serving knife in the cabinet as well. They have clothing but I didn't really examine that section too closely. I did eye a pair of black leather boots that looked really sleek. It was $40 but what prevented me from buying it was no zipper (I need a zipper to fit into these boots).

One of those moments when you are hesitant to enter and you friend convince to go inside and take a look. The reason of my doubtfulness to get into the store was fear. Fear that it was a too posh store for me and it would look weird to just say the classic 'just browsing today'. What a great surprise to find out that The Shop is, actually, a thrift shop. Posh, but second hand clothes at really good prices. Everything in the store is impecable, clean, well organized by colors and styles and in great state. I got 2 great deals that look simply fantastic on me (will post pics of that soon:). Got a jacket from Max Mara for just $20, very chic and fitting and another dark brown corduroy blazer for just $15 of no name brand but equally super fitting and flattering. I was beyond happy when I left the store. This is not your casual Salvation Army, this is high end stuff well taken care of at great prices (even the high brand with higher prices were not very expensive).

The Shop is a fresh and clean place to find gently used clothing and some lovely home decor pieces. You don't have to sift through battered clothing to find good buys. They are selective in what they sell and I find the prices appropriate for the quality and condition.
