“I always find something special when I come here!! Truly lovely, curated selection of good quality clothes (really love the diverse sizing) and home ware. Staff is very kind and helpful.”
“The best jean buying experience ever! I didn’t catch my sales associates name, but she was great, and helped me find the perfect pair. It was a really collaborative process, and made shopping fun. If you visit, I 100% recommend doing an appointment as opposed to just browsing. It’s worth the money and a bit of extra time. I will be buying all my jeans here!”
“I went here a couple times, and the staff had always been extremely sweet. They always have unique pieces that go well with everyday wear. I absolutely love this store and all the vibes. It is also VERY affordable, an absolute gem. Will definitely come back every chance I get!!”
“These guys genuinely know vintage. They lived it and understand the backstory of every piece in their store.
In an industry of fast fashion and clout chasing, this spot is the opposite. Go in and talk with them. Super kind, approachable and knowledgeable. That’s rare.
Store is a thoughtfully curated selection of items with zero judgment or pressure towards consumers. Great place to browse, reminisce and find the right nostalgic item.”

“We only had a couple minutes, but this place is so well curated that it didn't matter! Scored a fantastic Isaac Mizrahi coat for my son and a sweet black United Colors of Benetton sweatshirt just as they were closing!”
“Was here for digital copy of my passport and got help so quick, thanks to Divine Team for their help. Noticed its also a One stop shop for most household needs and business services like Notary , fax, copying and wireless services and much more”
“I could spend hours here. Always so much to look through and new inventory what seems like every time I stop in. Love the music and old school feel of the place. It’s a nice little escape. Always find something! But it’s nice to just even come here to browse and look at all sorts of different antiques. Definitely one of my favorite antique shops in the area. Prices seem fair for what most of the items are and jewelry is also fair. Love it here.”
“Definitely gonna go back there and get me a vanson and the red coca cola racing jacket.Would be game set match if I can find a iceberg or coogi sweater 💯🔥”
“As NY as it gets! A joyful experience. Staff is super friendly and relax, the stuff available there is quite interesting, of very good quality and prices are spectacular . When we visited, Robert was playing the piano and singing. The cold and rainy day turned in to happiest (¿hippiest?) shopping experience. If I lived in NY I would definitely buy my furniture there!”
“Found a beautiful silk scarf on sale rack outside for $5 and on walking inside found a lovely space filled with treasures I want to go back and discover. I'll be back & big thankyou. The scarf made my day! I'll be wearing it everywhere.”
“This store is amazing! Always a great selection, super low prices, and the staff is incredibly sweet. Made a few purchases a few days ago and they let me know the profits that day were going to breast cancer awareness. Love their mission!”

“Walked past it and had to go in. Some beautifully curated items in there. My word of advice, go to the back room and search for the hidden gems. Found a vintage coach devon bag in a beautiful color in gorgeous condition. Price was reasonable, as it is vintage luxury. The owners were so so sweet and kind, if I ever come back to New York I know the first place I’m going to.”
“One of my favorite stores in New Jersey. I’ve been shopping with Richie for years and I always get amazing things that worn over and over again! Great customer service and Richie is all about giving back to the community, which is awesome!”

“Well, for $120 my daughter and girlfriend got a black skirt, a pair of silver high heels, a fluffy red jacket, a sequined black party dress, and a red sport coat. They loved it. Like any other used clothing store you have to hunt and search.”

“Absolutely cute thrift store. Great customer service.
Things I recommend
1. Small, Medium and Large needs to be separated and highlighted very clearly to avoid wasting time searching
2. Kids corner needs to clearly labeled too.
Otherwise no issues”
“Very nice staff and they have some nice options. Not all items are secondhand, some still have tags on them. I got two pairs of pants for 23 bucks - one was banana republic and the other caché. 10/10 recommend checking out.”
“Great store, a wide variety of brands and a good selection. I recommend it; it was a good experience. By the way, the staff is very friendly; Sulgey helped us a lot with everything”
“Extremely reasonable prices on good quality high end pieces. In a world where the vintage clothing industry has become pretentious, this store is a breath of fresh air and Tony the owner couldn’t be nicer!”
“Very thoughtfully curated and well organized thrift shop. Far superior to some of the others in the area. Very reasonable prices. I overheard a staff member say they don’t carry fast fashion - I found a few fast fashion items on the racks but it was mostly good + higher quality items.
Don’t miss this if thrifting in the area!”
“Very happy we reached out to for donating our sectional. Its important to me to pass on to those in need as I was at one time.
Pick up scheduling was smooth and the driver handled the furniture with care and very personable.”
“Filled to the BRIM with beautiful and vintage pieces. Owners are so nice. Items are also very affordable. It's packed, so whatever you're looking for, you can find almost everything here. Not even just clothes, so much more. I personally love fashion and thrifting, and this is my new FAVORITE store. I was so, so satisfied. Going to shop here for the rest of my life. Found out about this place because I saw it while walking down Cedar Lane. Thank God I did!”
“A great little shop with very fair prices. They only take cash FYI and I wish they would give receipts... It's the only downside to this obviously lovingly presented shop”
“this location gets a lot of NWT sample sale leftovers, which can be a good thing but often oversaturates inventory. their prices are very hit and miss, but this is one of the better and larger housing works locations”
“SARC has some beautiful vintage pieces and more. It’s in a great location and I cannot wait to go back. I just brought some fly boots for $14. Her prices are amazing as well. If you love thrifting and finding unique items that you won’t see other people wearing (such as myself) please go check SARC out!”

“Interesting items, mix of different brands, not just fast fashion stuff but some nicer items too. Ladies who work there are very kind. They have a dressing room but the door is small so not easy to try items on. I would return.”
“Well-organized, nice selection, fair prices, and the volunteers are super welcoming. Easy street parking too. Note - the first floor has a few steps, and the clothes are up a flight of stairs.”

“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.”
“East Village Thrift Shop in New York is the kind of place that makes you walk in for “just a quick look” and then somehow walk out forty minutes later holding things you did not know you needed but now cannot live without. The selection is surprisingly good, especially for a shop that does not take itself too seriously. You can find everything from genuinely cool vintage pieces to the kind of weird little items that make thrifting fun in the first place.
The prices are fair for the neighborhood, which in the East Village is basically a small miracle. You are not paying luxury boutique prices for secondhand finds, and you can actually walk out feeling like you scored something instead of feeling lightly robbed. The staff also deserves credit for being helpful without hovering, which is exactly the balance you want when you are digging through racks like a determined raccoon on a mission.
Is everything perfectly organized? No. Will you occasionally have to dig a little? Absolutely. But that is part of the charm. This is a thrift shop, not a museum, and the slightly chaotic vibe is what makes finding a great piece feel like winning a small lottery.
Overall, East Village Thrift Shop delivers exactly what it should: fun, affordable, and genuinely interesting thrifting in one of the most entertaining neighborhoods in the city. If you like a little attitude with your shopping and a lot of personality in your finds, this place easily earns five stars.”
“Tons of clothes, furniture and electronics (movies, games too) spread over 3 floors. Very helpful and nice staff. Decent prices that got really good due to extra discount. Well worth a visit!”
“I love this place! Sarah, the owner is so nice and super helpful if you have any questions. I just came across this shop while driving one day and now it’s on my regular thrift rotation. It’s clean and items are easy to sift through. Also, there’s ALWAYS new things coming in so I’m destined to leave with SOMETHING. A perk is puppy Lulu who is always happy to greet customers! Absolutely stop in for some great finds!”
