Worth a look and very nice to actually see a bunch DoD goods for sale and not just work boots and Carhartt clothing. Small and you have to work your way and around. Books, pins and medals, and uniforms. Various accoutrements and all at very good prices. Clean. Lots of foot traffic. Very nice staff too. No negatives. read more

There was a lot of neat stuff in the store, but unfortunately I couldn't look at half of what I wanted to look at because it was too crowded and then I did wait and the store owner was looking at me. Wait while she was helping another person and another person cut right in front of me and I had to wait another almost 20 minutes and finally I just left the store. It was not something that I wanted to spend any more time at. They have a lot of great stuff expensive but good so if you're in the area, check it out maybe you'll be able to see something that I didn't. Thanks for listening. read more

There are not many people who can remember what a real Army Navy Store was like. This place brings on some nostalgia. It's a great place to browse and maybe find something you can use or display. Change of pace from the other stores in this part of Mystic. read more

This was a very cool store set amid all the boutiques in Mystic. It's a nice change of pace from one bougie Knick knack store after another. I loved the selection inside and ended up purchasing a vintage blazer and button up at VERY reasonable prices. They have a combination of true antique pieces and newly made replica pieces. Staff was super friendly, available, and helpful. read more

Been there years ago and may get back soon. This is not a hipster kind of Army Navy but a real throw back with substance read more

The Army Navy Store is a pretty unique shopping experience. Here you may find all types of army gear, uniform, boots, pins, hats, protective hats and more. They also have some baby dresses and outfits, and things that are more costume. This store has been here for 30 years. It unfortunately has a bit of that "been here a long time" type of odor. I went here in hopes of finding an authentic, weather proof American flag, to put on my currently bare flag pole in front of my home. The young man I spoke to seemed to be very informed on the subject. I told him the approximate height of the pole, and he immediately pulled out a flag, that seemed to fit the bill. He explained the quality of the material is designed to withstand the harshest of winds. Also the way the stitching is done, is made to last through whatever blows and comes its way. Naturally this flag is made in America. It was $55.99 and was not taxable. My friend got the Connecticut flag, also from the same maker. I was very pleased with my shopping experience at The Army Navy Store. I will be putting up my brand new flag as soon as the winter's snow is over. read more

Really polite staff and great support for veterans but every last thing inside the store is made in China which was very disappointing. The selection of things is huge but the quality and value of them is very low. read more

Mike and I stopped in here while visiting the area. They have a great selection of current military clothing. They also had things for children and camouflage type things in different colors. I was interested in the dog tag machine which is so old. They still make dog tags there. I kind of wanted to see more of the old stuff and I really didn't see anything that I wanted to buy. The prices are really expensive I thought. They had a Gilly suit in adult and children sizes and I was interested in the story behind that. I am glad that they included the history of it. read more

Came to Mystic for a day to visit this beautiful town. Was shopping and came along this Army Navy store. I walked in to browse around. The gentleman behind the counter gave me a warm friendly greeting. There was a lot of merchandise to choose from. I came along some Navy hats and I thought of my friend Bill who was in the Navy when he was younger. So I text him some pics and he choose one and was delighted. Of course I purchased it and I told the gentlemen behind the counter who it was for and I could see he was pleased. I just had a good feeling being in this store, sort of patriotic. I always remind myself the reason I can live in freedom and safety is because of our brave members of the military protecting us in our wonderful country. When you look at other parts of the world you can see the difference. So for the selection of merchandise, reasonable prices and a warm friendly feeling from the staff and the customers which created an inviting atmosphere I give this store 5 Stars. read more

Mystic Army Navy Stores - Military Surplus Near Me - Mystic, Connecticut

See all

Cool stuff at cool prices The Mystic Army Navy Stores has been here for around 20 years and really hasn't changed much. Many of these army surplus type places tend to morph into higher priced and fashion oriented stores but fortunately this store still puts the emphasis on cheap and cool merchandise. The store is small and the aisles are cluttered with all sorts of stuff so you have to squeeze through in places and take care something doesn't bounce off your head. The front of the store always has various jackets, hats, ammo boxes and other sundry crap hanging around so people have to step over or around them. Makes navigating a bit difficult but also makes poking around lots of fun. This is the type of store that is always changing but the basic idea is the same, lots of outdoor, cold weather and survival type stuff. Jammed into the store are boots, jackets, gloves, hats, knives, tents, stoves, sleeping bags, flash lights, compasses and lots of crummy t-shirts. They also have some cool books, maps and posters and I've found the old artillery cases and old ammo boxes quite useful for all sort of things. They also have a section for kids and women. Great if you happen to know someone who wants a camouflaged bikini or lingerie. The prices in the store vary a lot, some of the stuff can be quite expensive but much of it is dirt cheap. Sure, you won't find fancy brand names or the latest fashions but you will find lots of cool, strange and useful stuff that will last a long time. And that never goes out of style. read more

Very helpful. Good selection! American pride and support for our military is of utmost importance!

Very nice people, only talked to them over the phone but there were very helpful and polite.

This place has some pretty cool stuff but the lazy girl at the register could not be bothered with helping people. She was on the phone the entire time we were in the store (9/4/2015 @ 11ish) and did not acknowledge anyone in the store. Word of advice, not all of us are tourists so try not to act like a bunch of pricks. read more

My husband has taken us into such stores all over the Midwest. This store is hands down the cleanest, most well organized one ever -- guest friendly to the max. Worth a stop in even if you aren't with an military vet. read more

I have been going here for 4 years now! The staff is always informative and knowledgeable about the products. Whether you're in the market for something more functional and sturdy, a memento of your time in mystic, or stylish (military chic, anyone?), the staff are helpful and can recommend what might work best for you. There are a good variety of products to explore for yourself! It's not really a trip to Mystic if you don't stop in! read more

I had been to this store once before and they were very friendly and helpful....I am getting ready to march in the 2017 Washington DC Memorial Day parade and needed camo pants the same color as I had in desert storm... Michele and her crew were very professional and prompt with email and when I showed up to get them they made sure everything fit properly.... hands down the best army navy store I have been in so far and would recommend them highly.... I will definitely be back and won't hesitate to call or email if I need something. read more

Great stuff and staff. Especially that guy Rich.

I would like to preface my review by stating that I understand that this store has been in Mystic for a long time and that my husband frequents this store. With that said, I recently accompanied him and asked (or begged) politely to use the restroom (I'm pregnant). They refused to let me go and instead directed me to walk to the public facilities (which were not close - especially for someone in their third trimester - and it was raining). I understand that local businesses cannot offer their facilities as public restrooms, but as someone who has worked in retail in the past, I also know that exceptions can be made and I feel strongly that they should be made for a desperate pregnant lady who simply had to pee. The gentleman that I spoke to was not only rude and unreasonable but he also certainly didn't give us the respect that I would hope to get as a regular customer (it's not like we haven't spent money there over the years and were just tourists looking for a bathroom). After this experience (and as I mentioned before we have frequented this store for years) my views of the staff have changed and I would not recommend this store moving forward (unless they decide to act more polite and empathetic). read more

It is one of the first virtualshops created by me and Marian! And I think the best virtualshop! The counter of the site was created by me and it is truly amazing that it's functioning right now since 1997 and the date of counter is my birthdate, ha ha! Keep up the good work, folks from Mysticarmynavy! Sorin (sorinpetcu@gmail.com) read more
