I'm not sure where to begin, as I am no antique expert nor am I a thrifter. I am merely in search of a previously-owned dry bar, preferably in good condition with a dash of character. I was so utterly overwhelmed with the sheer volume of items in this shop, it literally took me a few minutes to get my bearings and being rummaging. Lots of furniture - curio cabinets, headboards, end tables and every kind of lamp imaginable. It was all stuffed in so hap-hazardly, had there actually been a bar in there, I don't know that we would have spotted it. I relented and asked The Voice From Somewhere, and alas, there was no dry bar to be had. I can't imagine anything in there is especially precious or considered a real "antique," but stuff there is and loads of it, so if you're in the market for a funky coffee table or a gilded mirror, this is your treasure trove, fo' sho'.

I ended up stuck in the store for probably 15 minutes more than I wanted to as the man working there, who seems like he is a friend of the owner droned on and on about the most random things. For most of the conversation I was completely lost, and it took away from me being able to actually look at the goods. This place is jam packed with stuff - They have a large selection of beautiful stained glass windows and 60s and 70s modern furniture. If you're looking for that style, this is the place. The man did say that if there's something in particular you are looking for, that he would know whether they had it or not, and I think that might be the way to approach this place, because finding something on your own seems a little daunting with the sheer volume of the stuff.

One is more like a thrift shop and the other is a little fancier and has bigger items like furniture. You can find anything from costume jewelry, linens, art, and furniture to yard and garden decor. The owner, Barbara is delightful and has lived in the area her whole life. She gets new items in all the time so it's worth it to pop in from time to time. If there is something special you're looking for, you can let her know and she will keep an eye out and call you when she has something for you. The name comes from the fact that the Warren Times office was actually where the fancier store is now. Originally she only had the thrift store and that was called Behind the Times. This store is a great addition to all of the quaint vintage and antique stores in the neighborhood.
