lovely people too!!
Thank you Thunderbird for saving all of the UArts furniture, art, and other materials that you could. I went in on Saturday to grab a stool as a memento from my time there in the 90s. I didn’t realize how much I needed to be immersed in it all to help with a little closure on the abrupt ending of what we all thought would be an institution for years to come.
This thrift shop is a gem. They’ve got everything: clothes, incense, sneakers, crystals, dishes, toys, jewelry, even ’80s and ’90s electronics. It’s got that real mix of nostalgia and good finds. The selection is huge, and the prices are reasonable. Whether you’re looking for a unique fit or just want to dig see what's available, this place fits the bill.
Spent a wonderful couple of hours at Thunderbird today. Staff were super helpful and kind and I came away with a few great finds all for a really reasonable price. 17/10 : highly recommend
Such a great place to explore vintage items. A good assortment of old playboys, magazines and other books. Lots of unique collectables and interesting items. I saw a really pretty stained glass lamp. Fair prices. Definitely worth a visit!
Love this place. Have bought my dinner table, several pieces of furniture, a reptile habitat, and a vibrating chaise longe there. Always cool to browse.
Really fun and chaotic gift shop in the old First Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ. There are two shop kitties that are very friendly, lots of local art, lots of plants outside, and tons of random treasures. Some items are priced individually and some items are fairly priced in bulk. Definitely worth a visit!
What a cool spot! Walked in unplanned with a 4yr old in tow, so I got to see about 1/8th of what I would have liked. I’ll be solo next time I visit, and will likely never leave.
Did get a cool chair and some VHS tapes, and luckily for you all we did leave this hotdog phone behind, for all your important calls!
The team working here is so kind and fun to talk to, their collection is incredible and diverse. The crystals! OMG! Fantastic place, fantastic prices, fantastic staff!
I love everything in this store! It’s the perfect mix of thrifted and antique items with a store cat as well! I purchased a book and my friend got a nice brown leather jacket. I will definitely be back when in Philly again.
Stopped in for the first time last week, and I’m obsessed. I could spend hours in this place (pretty sure I did spend hours in this place). Granted I’ve only been once, but I thought we landed in a reasonable place price-wise. Definitely plan to return.
aesthetic in this place goes crazy, love that thrift feel, but it doesn't necessarily have the thrift prices. staff are friendly, and there's a section with handmade plaid pieces that are cool and i think made by one of the staff members? awesome vibes all around
They’ve got everything…books, records, knick knacks, clothing, shoes, accessories, home goods, electronics, etc. Pricing isn’t absurd. They have adult magazines close to the entrance and other framed adult images scattered throughout so take heed if you’re bringing young children here.
What an amazing thrift store! The quality of their book selection, wall art, home goods and decorative miscellany is truly impressive and their prices were unbelievably fair. I highly recommend!
Huge variety in the inventory, from jars filled with marbles and buttons to vintage bar furniture, and original artwork. Not well organized (could be for aesthetic reasons) or clean. Prices are $-$$$.
Such a cool store! Lots of fun items to look through and admire. Found some really neat things and everything had great prices. I’m glad I stumbled across this place and I’m definitely excited to go back to see what other treasures await.
Man, what took me so long to get here ! Was here an hour and still didn't see all I wanted to see. I will be back. Both the employees I spoke to were super great. The one showed me a lamp she made from product salvaged from Wanamakers (I heard that and I was stoked)...it was incredible!!! The huge space did it no justice ! Go check out the lamp and all the other goodies yourself.
This is most fun vintage shop in all of Philly. The staff is really nice, it's totally cool to browse around for hours. They have so much stuff. Def check it out. I bought a really great industrial cabinet there and made it into my baby's changing table.
