An interesting place. An old timey antique place which has some really cool stuff. Kind of a Antique Store meets an Estate Sale. Now that they are combined with Books by the Falls, its gone from 4.5 to 5 stars to me. I think I Im just the right age for the merchandise ... a lot of nostalgia there from my childhood ... late 60s to 70s

I am in love. Fair prices and the store has some semblance of order. Great friendly staff. So much to take in, I think I was there over an hour.

Ive been coming here for underpriced antiques and vintage items for over 10 years! This place is a gem! Yes, items are dusty, yes its crowded, but if youre a real thrift shop hunter youll love all the hidden gems. The prices are very good FOR WHAT YOUR GETTING! Authentic antique and vintage items. If youre looking for a boutique experience and need to have your hand held. Please go somewhere else. I think the staff is wonderful and very down to earth people. This shop is not for babies that will throw a tantrum that they didnt get a candy with their purchase.

I love this place. I go here to pick up my Wish orders. If not for Wish,. I would never know this gem existed. There are so many cool pieces in this place! Everything from old sicklles to computer monitors to sleds for the kids next winter to a 1980s muppets show Animal aluminum lunchbox to clothes and boots and shoes to tools to toys and so on. Definitely give yourself time cuz there is a ton of stuff to look thru. But dont worry, they have the merchandise separated pretty damn well. Its pretty well organized. So give this place a chance. Especially right when u walk in. Its a little overwhelming. But its sooooo worth it. Trust.

Oh My God!! I never saw so much great stuff in one place. I feel like a kid in a candy shop when I visit Roosevelt Tower. So much to choose from. And the staff is helpful! This is a must see place to visit!

Great staff and knowledgeable about the store and its contents. Yes some items have dust, but guess what unlike people who leave nonsensical reviews. Their stuff gets sold and finds happy homes. Stop in and have a look at Roosevelt. Will be back!!!

Dont bother going unless you want Covid-19, both of the men working here were not wearing masks even though several customers were in the store. Will never return.

Review №14

What a gem! There is something for everyone. Staff was helpful and after we broke the ice a nice conversation took place. There are many levels and rooms in what seems to be like a small shop from the road, featuring anything from statues and business sighs to golf clubs, bikes, furniture to collectibles, toys and so much more.

Wonderful variety of antiques and unusual (but desired) items can be found in this great HUGE store. Great destination for a fun afternoon. Leave plenty of time to browse, as there is so much to see. I never leave empty handed. The owner is such a nice person. Always ready to make a deal, and always ready to help you find something you need. I love this place. China, Christmas, furniture, house building supplies, windows, doors, commercial equipment, household decor, jewelry, pipes, coins, lighting, outdoor furniture, patio sets, outdoor baby toys (cozy coops, etc.), bikes, I could go on and on....Not to be missed. A+++++++

Interesting collection of items from long ago to today. Furniture, books, vinyl records, knick knacks, and odds and ends. Something for everyone. The store is a good size and there is plenty of parking.

What a great place! Very interesting. Some of the people that wrote negative reviews must be smoking cheap dope. People, get over it . It is an salvage and antique shop. There doesnt need to be any organization, and it should smell musty, its old stuff, thats the fun of being there. Their prices may be high, but some people have no idea how hard it is to run a business in Connecticut. Taxes, fees, and all kinds of restrictions. Everybody has a right to make a living. Dont like it there go to Walmart!! There is too many losers and complainers out there. You people---GET A LIFE>!

Rather expensive. Sort of like a Habitat for Humanity Re-Store but with everything being full price. Otherwise an interested collection of stuff.

Lots of interesting pieces, like furniture, cookware, clothing, books, and toys of various age/vintage. The organization of the items is a bit scattered, but its nice to browse if you know what youre looking for.

Theese people that own this place should be ashamed of themselves. There very pety and split hairs on everything. The lady and her husband( the guy with the goatee/Texas hat) fought with me over a few bucks. Not only this but all the people who work here are worse then car salesman. They follow you around when they see you are looking for something. An try to sell you everything except for what you want. I reapeted more than once Im good I looked and you dont have the size i need. But what about this what about that. Ughhh hello you def or you got some screws loose? I said Im good more than 3 times. Overall theese people give thrifters/ collectors a bad name. Cheap, very pety, and no respect for the same people who are paying their bills. Dont go here its a waste of time overpriced and there definition of negotiable is knocking off 5 bucks off a 100. Once again to the owners/workers SHAME ON YOU !!!!

It is smaller than you would think from looking at the outside, and some stuff was over priced but if you are looking for Antiques and other odds and ends and and youre in the area might as well stop by.
