    Amazing selection and very friendly staff ! Very knowledgeable and gave us tips for what's around the area since we're not from here. It was a very "homey" feel ! Thankyou !

    It's amazing how you can pass a place every day and not know how much of a gem it is... I came with my uncles because one loves classic cars. The cars were nice - I'm not a great appreciator of classic cars but they were nice to look at. We went inside and and I automatically was drawn to the nine foot Pep Boys statue! I don't know why but I was diggin' it! Then I ventured behind there and there was a pristine antique shop! This place is much bigger than meets the eye from the outside view. Neon signs, classic gas pumps, old Hamburgler models, classic bicycles - I was mesmerized! Really cool and classic pieces you could nicely incorporate into your decor. Jon was awesome! Very nice and checked to make sure we were okay and didn't have any questions before he told us about the slot machine room and upstairs show room! Awesome place to check out! When I win the lotto, I'm coming here! Guess I should play...

    I have been driving by this place for years and I finally stopped in and checked things out. Most if the cars are junk and most if the cars are over priced. Walking through the showroom reminded me of s road side museum you would of found near Barstow, CA back in the 1960's Some of the signs that are for sale are really KOOL. Old fuel pumps and I the automotive memorabilia. I will go back from time to time just to check out the new inventory because it changes all the time.

A 1923 Singer sewing machine, unusual glass creamer and sugar bowl, and matching set of Czech teacups are just some of my prized finds from this place. Moreover, I have always felt comfortable with the price point of Antiques Station over some of the other vintage/antiques stores in the same plaza, which are expensive for the quality of items they carry. For example, the Singer I mentioned was about $40 and tea set (which I used as birthday favors) $48 for the four cups and plates. They stock a good mix of apparel/accessories, housewares, and Disney paraphernalia (Orange being, after all, near Anaheim and Disneyland). If you appreciate good carnival glass, there's usually a good selection that's hard to walk away from - see the stunning Fenton hobnail lamp. I can't speak for other's experiences, but I have always had positive interactions with the ladies who work here. They'll frequently ask if they can help bring anything up to the front, always with a big smile!

We are going to be coming back more often now to pop in and say hello to our new friend and pick up more rings while we are there!! Pat is definitely a top notch representative!! What an incredible experience!!

There's an entire downstairs section, which is a little less organized, crowded, so I'm not quite sure if I've seen it all. When you walk in, the register is to the right. They sell all kinds of things. Whatever you can imagine, old and new, is what they sell: Clothing, jewelry, purses, stuffed animals, houseware, decoration, furniture, paintings, shoes, blankets, etc. I can go on and on. When I was looking for a table scale, I found one and it only cost $10. Because all the stalls are based on consignment, prices depend on what the seller is hoping to fetch on their items. The people who work there are always friendly. The manager and/or owner makes an attempt to greet shoppers and ask if they need any assistance. Parking: There is plenty of free, street parking.

So much more than a hardware store! Basically anything you need if it be shabby chic, vintage, or distressed, then this is the most likely place to find the repair parts. This store seems like it's been here forever, I've been to the store for the past 30 years. It never comes to mind until I have some project I'm working on or somebody needs something that they just can't find anywhere! The price are reasonable too, mainly because you'll be driving all over the place looking for that item come on when you find it. The value of it can be priceless.

It's clear this store takes great care in curating its collection, and I'm so happy it's still around. If you're into vintage or just looking for something special, this place is a must-visit!
