“What a great place. Old books, cheap 2$ for hardcopy. Cafe with friendly folks, 3$ coffee. And fantastic places to sit amongst old books, old brickwork, wood floors. Lots of character. Attached thrift store, everything is cheap and old, mostly busted and dented but that's ok.

Small goat pen, plant store, outdoor seating. Great place to spend a few hours and a few bucks. Donations accepted of old stuff.”

“This store has really come a long way, and its current management and selection are very good. Prices vary, as they offer a number of different individual sellers’ lots. The vinyl records will definitely appeal to savvy listeners and collectors alike, and as a huge music fan myself I can say it was hard to leave without finding a very good record, in excellent condition, at a fair price. I highly recommend this store! It is a wonderful place, excellent location on Historic Route 1, and really should be checked out alongside Clinton Antique Center, Clinton Goodwill, and other vintage + antique boutiques and stores along the way such as Fringe Clothing. Music lovers (and clothes horses, too!) check this place out!”

“I've been here a lot, made purchases every time. There is a wide variety of things, staff is usually friendly and most things are priced fair enough that you are willing to buy even if something is tad higher than it should be. However, after my recent visit, I had the feeling to look up the items I purchased, only to find that a few of them were so grossly over the average current prices found across Etsy, eBay, multiple online auction sites and more. A vintage bowl I bought, I paid $40 for (and that was WITH the 20% off that booth was having) turns out it is sold everywhere else for around $15 with some places offering free shipping. I love what I got and will keep it, but I won't be buying anything blindly again in the future. I still like this place, I will still come here, but I definitely urge them to be more realistic and fair with their pricing, it's not right to take advantage of peoples trust.”

He showcased an impressive collection of antique firearms and even gave me a small gift as we left. If you love antique guns, this shop is a must-visit. Thank you for a wonderful experience!”

“I met Akill this weekend when my husband, son and I stopped by his shop.What a beautifully displayed shop. Even the smell of the shop was so pleasant, not musty and stuffy like most shops.My son purchased a metal sign and I some specialty soap. The lemongrass soap and the other green soap. I forget the name. The smell of the soaps was so soothing. I exchanged my connection to the lemongrass one with Akill.Akill is such a knowledgeable, interesting, and kind man. I did not meet his wife but I read that she designed the layout of the shop. I’m sure she is just as interesting as he is.The short time we spent chatting he made us laugh, smile and travel the world looking at his collection. He took his time to explain some of his cherished findings and we loved listening to the background and history.I wish I could have bought more. Maybe another time.I am so glad we stopped in and believe I should share good experiences. We hear so much bad in the world. I like to highlight the good.So if you find yourself in the area stop by and walk through his shop and look at all the beautiful pieces he has collected.”

“The employees at this store are fabulous. I've been watching a chair on Chairish for months, and it was finally reduced to a really excellent price. They held it for me until I could get there today. I guess I wasn't sure how big it is, but it's HUGE. It for sure didn't fit in the back of my SUV. so the employees managed to get fit it in with just a small portion protruding and bungee corded it very securely in my vehicle so I could make the seventy mile drive home with my new purchase. Thanks so much for the effort. I'm thrilled with my purchase.”

“Like a fancy Homegoods. I did not purchase anything, but saw some really beautiful pieces. I thought the prices were not bad & the staff was very friendly. I was greeted twice while browsing and was told if I needed any assistance just give a whistle!”
