“I loved this place! So many cute trinkets, vintage comics, cassettes, and toys and soooo many pokemon cards (graded and ungraded). Amazing hospitality and so much love goes into this place. Do visit!”
“Was advised to check this place out since I just relocated and needed several furniture items. Not only did I get some furniture, but there were also some other small home items and cool shoes that I went home with. If you need help with delivery, they do have a list of three private people that they refer customers to if you don't have the physical means to move purchased big items. I didn't spend too much time in clothes and shoes since I was on a furniture and home mission, but everything looked well organized and selected where some donation stores look as though items aren't well sorted or some items may not be in good condition to sell. All staff were extremely patient and kind and I will be definitely returning in the future. I feel they have strong community pride, and the business is well worth supporting.”
“Such a lovely store. Can’t sing Jen’s praises enough. She made my husband and I feel so welcome. Wonderfully organized but you can still have that “digging around” thrifting experience. Support this business!!!”
“This shop is truly a hidden gem! My husband and I discovered it while celebrating his birthday, and we’re so glad we did. The owner is incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even more special. We found so many wonderful treasures—my husband picked up a collectible book, and I couldn’t resist some gorgeous jewelry, a lovely scarf, a chic hat, elegant glassware, and even a stylish wine carrier. Every piece felt unique and thoughtfully curated. You won’t be disappointed when you visit!”
“The store is well-organized, clean, and filled with a thoughtfully curated selection of clothing, home goods, and unique treasures — all at affordable prices. Every visit feels like an adventure, and you never know what incredible items you’ll discover. The quality of the merchandise is consistently impressive, and it’s clear that everything is carefully chosen and well cared for. The layout makes browsing enjoyable, and the welcoming atmosphere encourages you to take your time exploring.
What makes Monarch Thrift Shop truly special is the warmth and heart behind it. The staff and volunteers are kind, helpful, and passionate about supporting the community through their work. They go above and beyond to create a positive experience for every customer, and the proceeds go toward a great cause, making each purchase even more rewarding. You leave not only with something wonderful but also with the satisfaction of supporting a business that gives back. Monarch Thrift Shop is more than just a thrift store — it’s a place where style, value, and compassion come together beautifully.”
“If you’re into thrifting give New2You a try. I’ve found some great pieces and antique furniture in here for a really unbeatable price. The only downside is the close kind of early at 3:30 but if you get in during the early opening hours you’re sure to find some goodies.”
“The store manager was helpful and kind. She shared different content creators online to get inspiration from. I will definitely be returning with my mom to show her the place as well.”

“Give Jovan a raise and less responsibilities right now!!
I was in here and it was slammed and there was a line even with enough cashiers, which was no one's fault, everyone in line seemingly had some edge case issue. Jovan was handling helping fellow cashiers with their edge cases while handling my own which was that for years I've had two emails on my account and it's been confusing every time for me and the cashiers and no matter what no one could fix it. Well Jovan took notes, told me I was the second person today with this issue, and explained to me that he could not fix it but explained to me what could be done.”
“Well organized and friendly owner. A great place to browse for home improvement projects as they have lots of flooring, toilets, and light fixtures from Home Depot and other stores.”
“I recently found this thrift and I really like it, but I really want to say I think it’s a really beautiful service they’re offering that they will help trans folks with appointments to help them learn to dress for their new body! I love to support somewhere that’s willing to be so kind to the community”
“A worthy charity and my favorite thrift shop for clothing and housewares. Prices are very reasonable and you never know what you’ll find. They no longer sell furniture but decades ago I scored big time on a piece of Western Shaker. If you’re there early enough you too might find an antique treasure.”
“Some great finds with amazing prices! I also appreciate knowing that it's going to a good cause. The workers are volunteers and we're very friendly and helpful. I'll definitely go back to both donate and purchase items.”
“I cannot express enough how much I love this place! I always leave with the best finds. I find the prices to be very reasonable. The store associates are always super friendly. I've had a great experience both in person and over Instagram when they post the new items.”
“Great small thrift store! Prices are tagged by color, and the price list is posted behind the counter. The employee working there was very nice, and the store was clean, organized, and easy to browse. They have dressing rooms available, baskets to use, and a rack where you can hang items you're considering so you don't have to carry everything around. There's a good selection of women's and men's clothing, jewelry, and shoes, all fairly priced and affordable. I would definitely come back, and it's also very accessible by transit.”
“Happened upon while driving on Roosevelt.....Love the interesting finds and the fact they support a Cat Rescue!! They also have some Incense and Sage sticks along with some cool vintage threads! One of my finds were these 3 tiny Deer figurines! Purrrfect for my Fairy terrarium!!!”
“This is one of the best thrift stores in the north shore. It began years ago as a clothing exchange for the preschool that shares the building and evolved from there. They are so well organized and do an excellent job of putting items on sale when they have too much of something. They are volunteer run and donations go to local charities. It’s a gem of a place to donate and shop.”
“I walked in there just looking around and was met with such a great experience. The staff was so welcoming, helpful and kind. The items were all organized and really gorgeous. Such a beautiful boutique!”
“Love coming here!! It is a treasure chest of jewelry, clothing, shoes, house stuff and more. Today i found Salvador Ferragamo boots, in Chocolate brown in my size!! I bought a flower arrangement in a basket in perfect condition
And brand new mugs. I started Xmas shopping for sure! Nancy the manager is always so friendly and helpful. Thank you for expanding the store. It looks bright and shiny! Congratulations Wings and Nancy on a job really well done!”

“We had a wonderful experience here! We bought some sweaters and a few cute patches. They have stainless steel pet bowls here, as well as leashes, harnesses and other dog gear. Definitely a good place to stop if you're on a budget and want to support a fantastic rescue.”
“I had time to kill between testing at Lutheran General so I stopped in to roam the aisles and I’m so glad I did!
The store is extremely organized. The shelves are neatly stacked with countless treasures, separated by holiday, frames, kitchen items, serving dishes, mugs, decor etc. Everything was easily visible without having to lift or move things.
I did not shop for clothes but was impressed by the endless racks of items. Everything neatly hung separated by size and color. A coat did catch my eye which was vintage cashmere Mark Shale for $6.99. I snatched that right up. It’s gorgeous.
Next trip I will be spending more time going thru the clothing. The shoes are separated by color and there were many that caught my eye but I was running out of time.
The staff was incredibly friendly (well, the young man that checked me out was really the only person I interacted with) but he was great.
Looking forward to stopping by again.”

“Very nice affordable clothes! Bought khakis for $7 and a Google tshirt for $2. The people at the front desk were super friendly! Definitely coming back for some summer dresses soon! ❤️”
“Ms. Nicole Wingate is spectacular at her job. She made me aware of jobs I had experience for that I never even considered when I was searching. Nicole is a people person. She has a great way of tailoring a person's work background to fit potential job leads. I have to compliment her on helping me write a great resume which is going to improve my chances of landing a new job successfully. Awesome recruiting. I can't praise her enough. Thx!”
“Great place, great staff, but be aware that they close in December the Food pantry. Myself and others were walking up to the door today and a bewildered desk person was wondering why we were there, it was Thursday after all. No sign on the door.”
“One my favorite thrift stores. The prices have gone up in recent years but the selection is always good and the Monday and Tuesday sales are worth the trip to this gem.”
“Fabulous shop with amazing finds! One of the best curated thrift stores I’ve ever visited - with the best owner! The selection here is incredible; every rack feels intentional and thoughtfully chosen. Clothing, accessories, and home décor are well organized, making it easy to find high-quality pieces.
The store is clean, welcoming, and has a boutique-like feel while still offering great prices. There is care put into sourcing and displaying items.
If you love thrifting but appreciate a well-curated, stylish experience, this place is a gem to seek out. I have found some really unique items. Highly recommend!”

“Stood by dressing rooms to see how long it takes them to serve you. They looked and saw I was there but never asked if I needed a dressing room. Finally went and asked for one. This store otherwise has friendly staff (may just not be very tentative). Good selection and fully stocked with good options.”
