Good options, combination of new/vintage, some trinkets and fun accessories. Little expensive for a thrift store but they have sales and deals pretty frequently.

Definitely not a 5 floor army surplus that's advertised. 2 floors, and it's a lot of Halloween costumes with a few old bdu tops.
Update:Not my cup of tea, but staff was very nice. The proper description was a couple clicks away on the Google maps page.

Wide variety of formal and casual clothing. Lots of Halloween costumes and accessories that were still abundant up to the holiday, not scarce like other stores' sections get as it gets closer to Halloween. Fun environment with eclectic decor

This is by far my favorite vintage store in all of Chicago! I have not visited Belmont Army Vintage without purchasing an outfit or having deep regrets of not snatching an incredible outfit. I always receive wonderful compliments from friends and strangers about my outfits bought from this incredible vintage store.Their selection is vast and does not disappoint at all! The atmosphere is very engaging, colorful, and always fun! Customer service is always pleasing!

Very fun vintage store and one of those stores that wherever you look you see a surprise to make you smile . It was one of my favorites to visit when I was in the Lakeview area.

Overjoyed our local vintique is back. There was a fire in the store last year where they relocated to Andersonville for a year. I assume for whatever legal insurance concerns they had. Honestly this is probably one of the best spots for clothes. There are so many unique finds if you want to be a little more extra or a lot extra and go for a full on costume. There period pieces are amazing. Classic print, roaring 20s, funky 70s, radical 80s. I mean they got some great pieces. They used to have an additional basement level but I think that still being renovated. I know you're hanging out on Belmont hitting the bars and food. Perfect time to swing in and browse and support a great local business and especially support yourself in looking good and unique!

Loved this store! Huge bummer they are closing this spot. They had great product from brands that I loved. Their shoe selection was top notch and if you ever needed something for a costume or theme party then this was the place to find it. It's going to be a bummer when they close for good. We need more local shops like this in Lakeview.

Couldn't tell if the whole place is closing or just part of it. There's definitely some clearance sales happening.
