The service was really nice. There are a lot of older books and not as many newer books. I did think that the sections were well organized and alphabetized so it made it easier to search through. The prices were good as well. It's a nice place to come and browse and look for a hidden gem of a read.

How can you not love a small community, public library that is solely focused on Mystery books and…read moreauthors? The two women working there when my family and I visited the last time were funny and intelligent. We enjoyed talking with them and hearing about the history of the library. The building itself is one of the original buildings in Milford, and I enjoyed venturing on to Water Street, aptly named, since it's right next to the Little Miami River in Old Milford. You won't be disappointed if you stop by here- especially if you are a mystery writer! TIPS- The staff was quick to point out to me that even though the overdue fines are 10 cents per day, it's only 30 cents per week since they are only open three days! Oh yeah- they are only open three days a week, so check the hours before making a special trip!

It has a selection of mystery novels much larger than most libraries - separated by genres. Worth a visit if you're a mystery or history fan. The library also welcomes small groups to use the space for gatherings - with advance notice of course! Hours are now: 10am-4pm Wed. & Sat., and 2pm-7pm on Thurs.

It's wonderful to see this pretty landscaping not far from a fairly busy road. Do yourself a favor and visit them sometime. What a gem!

I think if you are looking for some furniture at a reasonable price this would be the place to go look. They had desks, chairs, tables, and freestanding curio cabinets. There was quite a bit of home decor. I found some of the items were definitely overpriced compared to other thrift stores. But I still ended up getting a good deal on a couple of pairs of shoes. The day that I was in there they had a buy one get one free shoes and I paid $3 for two pair of shoes. Probably be worth another look at some point.

From the moment you walk in, you are greeted with smiles and great music. They always have coffee ready to be made and all the goodies for it. The lighting is perfect and welcoming. Everything is beautifully organized. Everyone is friendly and helpful. The art on the walls and decor could not be better. Perfectly priced records, cds, guitars, books, I even saw some cassetts in there. The bathroom was well stocked and clean. We were there to see local bands. What a great way to support the community!

The prices have…read moreconsistently been wonderful, and because pricing is managed independently at the store level, it never gets outrageous the way some larger chain thrift stores can. There are multiple sections of the store that are especially rich in great finds. The kitchen section is fantastic, with tons of glassware and kitchenware to dig through. They also have a large selection of wall art and picture frames. You'll also find plenty of trinkets, vases and planters, and furniture scattered throughout the store, which really adds to the treasure hunt feel. The main body of the store is filled with many clothing racks, and I've found a lot of great brands here, including plenty of Levi's jeans and similar staples. This is always the thrift store I recommend when someone says they want to start thrifting but don't know where to begin. It's approachable, affordable, and consistently rewarding. The staff has always been wonderful as well. There are a few employees who have worked here for years, and every interaction I've had with them has been pleasant and friendly. Sometimes the store can feel a little chaotic, but honestly, that just adds to the fun of searching through everything. Overall, I don't think I've ever left this store empty handed.

There have been a few employees that I am not sure love their job...BUT THEN THERE IS DARLENE. Darlene (and even Mike) are the shining stars in this place and they make up for any deficiencies. And if the truth be known, Darlene is one of the reasons we go there- she is a beautiful soul with a heart for people and I have seen many other people come in who also greet Darlene by name! So she knows her folks- and when you know your folks, you are treated right and want to keep coming back. There isn't enough room here to express our appreciation for Darlene. Mike, the current manager, is a good one, too. He is kind and warm and he genuinely cares about his customers. One day this will all be gone. Time and space will overtake us and we will all move on. BUt for now, this is my place, and I enjoy every minute I am there. Darlene, don't you ever change. And Mike, steer that ship! You are appreciated more than you can imagine.
