“Small, but very nice and organized store. Nice selection of American sports apparel, mostly jerseys, jackets and tees. The owner is talkative and friendly without being pushy. Prices are on the steep side, but not more than what you’d pay for online. Lucky for me the store did a 50% sale on everything that day, so I ended up buying three cool pieces. Knicks + USA basketball. Will return!”

“Very cute with interesting vintage items. A truly vast collection, valuable objects, especially clothing, watches, shoes and much more. In my opinion it is a small museum. It is one of the most beautiful places I have visited in the United States.”
“This is one of those places you wish you knew about earlier. I'm used to going to places where I have to kind of dig for what I like, but this place...seems to have something I like everywhere i look.
Tip, don't forget to look up and down, don't just stay at eye level. I found a hat I liked which was pretty high up and i'm glad I saw it.
You can tell the people who curate it know what they're doing and that they care - there are amazing brands, quality materials (at the moment - they just put out their fall collection- that includes a lot of cashmere!) You can get inspired by the products they have (I've learned about brands and types of jewelry) and even get ideas from the way they style their mannequins.
I didn't notice it consciously at first, but even the music they play in the store seems to have been chosen with care. I find myself dancing when I go in. That's the vibe i get in here - deliberate and careful curation done with heart.
The people who work here, at least every single person I interacted with, was very kind, friendly and down to earth. Just the right amount of friendly chatter, and no one ever made me feel pressured to buy anything - just made me feel at home and welcomed.
The pricing is extremely fair in my opinion, for the level of quality you're getting. I am trying to learn to manage my wardrobe, decluttering and whittling things down to favorites that I will wear for years, and I think some pieces I recently got here will be favorites for years to come. They're unique items, made of great materials with interesting design.
There is a downstairs where they have books, furniture and housewares like candelabras, espresso sets, that kind of thing. They do take donations.
This is one of my new favorite finds and it's for a worthy cause. I got on their mailing list to learn about events and sales they have. I sound like a salesperson but have no affiliation with them....I just appreciate this place and the people in it. The only 'negative' for me, is I wish it was closer to where I live but I will consider it a place to go when I need to get away. I've been twice and each time found/bought things I loved and have been on my wish list for a while. I'm glad I finally learned of this place; better late than never.”
“I stumbled upon the Upper East Side Thrift Shop recently and was pleasantly surprised by the wide selection of items at fantastic prices. It felt like discovering a hidden gem with each aisle I explored. The staff was friendly and helpful. If you're in the area, be sure to check out both locations on 1st Ave and 87th Street, as well as 2nd Ave and 89th Street. Support this local business, you never know what treasures you might find!”
“10/10 experience. I’ve never shopped for clothes for myself before and had a lot of anxiety going in. Leo was super helpful, knowledgeable, kind, patient, and understanding. He’s super chill and instantly knew which clothes would fit the aesthetic I wanted to go for. If you go to this place and Leo is there, you won’t be disappointed. Trust me. Thank you Leo. Hope to see you again!”
“I discovered this shop in the East Village and I love shopping the curated beautiful items they have. It’s now my favorite place to visit and the owner and staff are so helpful ❤️”
“I absolutely love this store. I recently started learning how to sew, so I decided to buy a few different blouses and dresses because I want to redesign them to my liking. However, I didn’t wanna spend a lot of money so I went to two different thrift stores in New York City and it just so happens that I came across this one and I love the store because all of the clothing is so inexpensive thank you so much and the kindness is really nice and the sore too.”
“i've been looking at a Dolce Gabbana leather jacket and i'm wondering why it has stripes on the sleeves, when others don't. Can someone answer this question please.”
“Been living in East Harlem for a year and this is easily my favorite thrift store. We’ve gotten so many items for our apartment at great prices. Additionally, the people working have always been kind and helpful.”
“Found some amazing vintage clothes at a reasonable price. The place can feel a little overwhelming and get extremely packed. But it can be an explorative experience with friends to find goodies. They do charge a credit card fee, so bring cash if you don't want to pay that. They also sell bags to carry your purchase for $2, so bring your own in case you bought a haul of goodies.”

“Really love this place. The prices are great and it's in a good location. I always find something I like. Today I got these great biker boots. It's affordable, ranging from $5 to about $50. My boots where $26 size 7. I also got a beautiful pink jacket/ coat like 2 weeks ago. If you spend some time and look around you will find gems.”
“Love this location! Friendly staff, beautiful selection, and unique pieces. The store is small but intimate. Everything is hanging up on shelves or hanging properly on the racks. I prefer this store than the Buffalo Exchange next door.”
“Me and my fiancé visited today and saw a typewriter for only $50! As a writer my eyes lit up once I saw it! The employees were so sweet and even tested it for us! We are 20 year olds from a very sad part of queens so we only came to window shop but no one judged or followed us! I’m so happy with my visit :)!”
“I normally donate tons of expensive stuff here and the ladies working there are super nice. Today though (12/26/2023), there was a white older woman who was a witch! Mean and rude! I have never seen her there before but I hope to never see her again. If she is volunteering, she should just stay home and avoid working with people since she doesn't seem to know what customer friendly means. Super cranky and horrible attitude!”

“Great place. My sister's and I were looking for interview clothes and found some beautiful sleek black pants from guess and a button down white top. There clothes are affordable (some thrift shops are pricey). The lowest priced item I saw was $5 t shirts and highest was $50 pink coat I bought from DKNY.”
“I make it a point to visit this location every single time I travel to NYC. Such a warm & welcoming staff, and of course great vintage finds! Love from Toronto!”
“Great selection of clothing, home goods, and other miscellaneous items. They started to carry plants as well. Def a gem in the neighborhood with affordable prices!”
“Great cause & great space . Keep an eye out for cool furniture. Friendly welcome when you enter . We've loved this store and donate here often from our own retail biz . . But a couple months ago one tall slim fair haired male employee has been out right rude , More than once when asked for a form when donating . For manager, hopefully he's gone or was reprimanded”
“this is my go to thrift store the prices are fair I have found great gems at this location. the staff is always supper helpful and friendly. keep up the good work!!!”
“selection is definitely hit and miss like any consignment store. you can find some awesome designer items for great prices if you're patient and sift through everything/come back periodically. for example, i got an 100% cashmere brooks brothers peacoat in near perfect condition for $125 but have also walked out of here empty-handed many times. don't expect thrift store prices, but items are generally in better condition than other thrift stores in the neighborhood”
“do not expect real thrift store prices at this location. for example, a men's polo ralph lauren button down goes for about $35. that being said, their items are well-curated and include good brands like theory, DVF, emporio armani, etc. they are also consistently in good condition and support a great cause. shoe selection at this store is also exceptionally good in comparison to other locations - manolo blahnik, ferragamo and jimmy choo are regularly spotted here”
“I had a fantastic time shopping here last Thursday. I stumbled on the store while walking to a meeting from my hotel. This is the way I like to vintage-shop: curated, quality pieces in a range of prices. I like classic & quality items that will last a long time. The owner and an employee helped me find a gorgeous leather bag I needed for my computer and a cotton/linen dress from Italy. They were both so helpful and positive and made me feel welcome. I left feeling fabulous and wishing there were stores like this near where I live. I can't wait to come back the next time I'm in the city!”

“Spent 6 months of my life here...came out on the other side a changed man. I kicked booze & drugs , got my Drivers license back, social security card, NYC ID, Medicaid all taken care of over that time. Had medical procedure I had needed done for years accomplished. I became Born Again in Christ. I worked out every evening in their top flight gym including internet enhanced (NordicTrak Bikes,rowing machine,elliptical, and treadmill). Picked up good work habits as part of a wharehouse crew.This place is a hidden gem . Im writing this almost a year to the day of my first walking through those doors. I have a career now , my own place, and a life that I am proud of with plenty of opportunity going forward.Amen”
“The BEST place to get clean and beautiful bargains! The manager, Cathryn, doesn’t allow damaged or soiled goods. I’ve been donating to them and shopping in Cauz for Pawz since they opened and they have excellent prices and beautiful merchandise!”

“Great place !abundant, styles of clothes more than enough styles to be good looking. Excellent and knowledgeable guys to help you find out what you want. Great price, highly recommended.”
“I was expecting vintage clothing, but hardly anything here is over 10 years old, which is fine, just not my style. The prices are very fair and they do have a discount rack out front.”

“I used to volunteer here in 2017-2019 and they had very good clothing donations that were all sent to auctions or best of season events. What you’re left with every day is $15 USED h&m t-shirts that cost $9.99 new, random trinkets that if you buy, you get rid of after a year, and stupid overpriced designer items.
So today I walked by the store and saw that they were doing the best of fall. There was a line but im disabled and I showed them proof and asked if there was anywhere I could sit while I waited and they said just ask the person at the end of the line if you can join them when they’re at front. I said ok and waited 50 minutes. The person I talked to left and I asked them what I could do. They said they I could just stand at the end of the line, disregarding my disability. The third person I asked said she could give me a folding chair and wait at the end of the 100 person line. I waited for like 5 minutes and realized I had to pick up a prescription sooo. Bye chair lol.”
