Located above the ground floor shops, this one has space to pursue without the excessive visual clutter. Bought two gifts and feel quite satisfied. Shop keeper is pleasant and attentive. Thank you!

An excellent shop run by enjoyable, eclectic people! You'll find anything and everything here, and unexpected surprises wait around every corner. Whether you're looking for midcentury furniture, primitive decor, cottagey china sets, or assorted porcelain doll pieces, you'll find it here! The music is also the best, definitely not the stuffy generic 50s-60s 'oldies' a lot of antique shops tend to prefer. Located on the lower floor of the building, wheelchair access is possible but many of the booths themselves will be difficult to move through in a chair, so definitely bring a friend to enjoy the hunt, too! Gateway is a little like time travel and a fun way to spend an afternoon.

It may seem crowded and difficult to move through the aisles at times, but this is store has real quality antiques and a little bit of everything for everyone. It's not a place you go for furniture though. The staff are friendly and always willing to help with questions. I have gone during their posted hours a couple of times and they were closed, which was disappointing because I live an hour away. Overall, I recommend them because their prices are fair and it isn't just a bunch of yard sale fare

Walked into the basement area and never was greeted, no hello, no welcome not even a thank you for coming in. The gentlemen upstairs was just as nice as he could be but downstairs basement area... Rude. Store is so packed in areas you cant walk, definitely not a place to take kids in. Lots of smalls and dishes but after we wasnt even greeted I was done. Hospitality rings big in my book especially when shopping at a small business.

There is a great variety of items and well organized. Hubby and I have different interests and we both enjoyed exploring for a while.

Amazing selection of vintage housewares, decor, books, furniture. Beautiful selection of Pyrex! I bought a set of vintage salt and pepper shakers and a cookbook. Plenty of parking. Super friendly staff.

This place is very cluttered. We also encountered a very unfriendly staff member that raised her voice at my young children. We will not be buying anything from here, or going back.

Lots to see. Some areas full of glass hard to maneuver. Know what you are buying pricing varies. Would go again. Love the variety. Staff very friendly.

Man, what a wild place. A thousand things scream out for your attention here. Looking for unique antiquated glassware? They have it. Looking for authentic, individualized chess boards? They have them. Looking for 1950's designer coffee sets? They're here. If you spend even a small part of your free time at thrift stores, it's a fantastic upgrade to that experience to come here. They're at the heart of the Ruckersville antique journey path. They are an anchor of that experience. I've never visited the restaurant, but I surely should. The people-watching is supreme, and I've fallen in love at least twice while visiting here. The authenticity and irony of the experience is second-to-none. This place sets a high bar for an antiquing experience. Service is kind and welcoming. The prices are reasonably high, but you get a high value in return. You won't find trash here for sale like you might at my favorite Goodwill. The diversity, genre, and historical value of the collection here is outstanding. Highly recommended, thoroughly encouraged. Please visit, observe, peruse, and purchase. This place needs your support to exist and thrive. It should exist and thrive.

This place was awesome! A Great variety of items. My husband was impressed by the record collection and I picked up a few items too. Also the owners were really cool and we had a good time just chatting with them at the end. Definitely recommend and will return when we're in the area ?

Lovely couple and the shop is amazing… this is not a small shop.. you could easily spend 2 plus hours they have such a variety. Definitely going back…
