“A wonderful gem! 1000s of great finds! A found object spot for those that enjoy thrifting and repurposing! Go.. spend time searching through all the incredible treasures this shop has to offer... if you cant find it.. it's in the back.. just ask!”

“Great stuff for going out. Lots of dresses & high heel shoes (didn’t check out the men’s section).
Items are in great condition.
HUGE (women’s) shoe selection.
Large, easy to see selection of costume jewelry.
Well organized/merchandiced (feels like shopping a boutique).
VERY Friendly staff.

Not so great small home electronics.

Nice other-home-items (furniture, plate sets, etc)

A bit pricy. Not for resellers but good for people wanting to get some nice things at good prices (just not Rock Bottom prices).”

“The folks working at this Habitat Restore location were so kind and helpful! No only did they help me locate an affordablely priced staple gun for my upholstery project they also helped me chose the right staples!
I'm super excited to get started and am looking forward to making the Restore my 1st stop when looking for project supplies!”

“If you've ever strolled thru the Paris Puces market just fascinated with the antique cooking pots and utensils, you can almost smell the cakes and pastries and roasts they produced - and in this tiny treasure Uptown, the gumbo pots and fish moulds and cornbread pans are just screaming to be put back to work on another stove. If you're a cook, or just love to eat, steal an hour from the office and sneak in to plan your next culinary triumph, with the inspiration of someone's grandmother's iron pot and sherry glasses and maybe her embroidered napkins or apron.If a huge beat-up knife screams at you to chop onions, grab a big thick seasoned chopping block and just imagine the ratatouille or coleslaw that were piled up for a beautiful garlicky feast. You'll even find a cookbook there with the recipes. Just holding a great old copper pot or a heavy cast iron skillet will set your mouth on a path to glory and for less than the price of a few onions. And best of all, you're right near Martin's Wine Cellar where you'll find the perfect Chianti for your Cacciatore. !!”

“Overall great store. They've gotten a bit pricey for a lot of the stuff but there's also definitely deals to be had. While we were there 3 large pallets of food (produce and bread products mainly) were dropped off and they let people shop them for free which I thought was really nice.”

“I've been going to the RW&B for 20 years. I do love it; however, the prices have gone up & up throughout the years, you just have to be selective with what you buy.
They've left the anti-theft device on twice. The first time I went back with my receipt and they removed it. The second time I removed it myself without any problems using a saw and a vice grip.
It does suck that they do not have fitting rooms; I wear a dress to try on jeans, shorts & skirts. With shirts I just put it on over what I'm wearing and so far I've had good luck with that.
Staff usually are helpful and friendly but occasionally they'll be someone rude and uncaring....I avoid those staff members.
Even with the prices higher than they used to be still beats paying retail price.
I do donate to them but never donate anything to Goodwill because their CEO makes over a million dollars per year; so do your research before donating to anyone, especially money.”

“I've been here twice and it seems like a great thrift store to find boots as I found a cute selection both times. The first time I left without a pair I liked and went back hoping they would be there but of course where gone but I did find another and didn't make the mistake again. They have a section to grab last chance items at $1. I will say the prices are high so once you take the 50% off that I received both days I went it brings the price closer to a thrift store bargain. I wonder if certain items are always 50% off as I see a slash through the prices of clothing and other items besides furniture I believe. Maybe the pricing is a way to make the customer feel they are getting a discount while making sure they make enough to support the cause? You must spend $5 to use your credit card or donate the rest to get to the $5 charge. I feel it's supportive for the community Grace House serves so I will continue to buy from there. Plus I want more boots.”

“Halloween!!?????? looking to unleash your inner costume designer this Halloween without breaking the bank, the local Goodwill is an absolute treasure trove of creative potential! Their racks are overflowing with unique pieces - a vintage blazer that could turn you into a flamboyant detective, a bright silk scarf for a quick "fairy" transformation, or even a pair of old ski goggles for a futuristic cyborg look. The staff is super helpful and always game to brainstorm ideas, making it a fun and collaborative experience. Whether you're aiming for a classic or something totally offbeat, this Goodwill is a must-visit for anyone looking to craft a truly one-of-a-kind Halloween costume that's both stylish and budget-friendly.”

“babyyyyy the reviews are a LIE! This is an AMAZING STORE, AMAZING STAFF, and a friendly environment incased in one of the most mesmerizing part of town. Everyone smiles and treats you so respectfully in the store. I have come multiple times and I never had one problem, complaint and/or issue. This store is 10/10 and they handle a vast majority of cliental with the upmost professionalism. They fairly and accurately price clothing and shoes. They are unbiased and operate in equal and fair mindset. Please come here if you need a SMALLER CLOSET❤️❤️ it’ll brighten your day!”

“The female manager at the store was very helpful today in making sure I was able to purchase a full set of glassware even though one of the glasses had a missing sticker. The cashier didn’t want to ring it up and had a bad attitude from the moment I walked up with all of my glassware. I even said hello to her and she didn’t respond. When she told me she couldn’t ring up the glass I told her it had happened before and they told me to go to the back to get a tag for it. She said no, she can’t do it and I went to the back anyway and asked for one. The manager said that would be fine and she would ring it up so I could have the complete set. Thanks to the manager, who is always friendly and professional, I was able to get the set. This is not the first time we’ve experienced the bad attitude of the cashier. She should not be on the cash registers with an attitude like that. It’s unnecessary and unprofessional, as well as unprovoked. Thank goodness for the manager who always makes our shopping experience at Goodwill a great one!”
