    Great stop while in Roswell! Great location on Main street near the UFO McDonalds and right down…read morethe street from the UFO Museum. They have a great selection of items, some you wont find anywhere else. Chuck was so helpful. We couldn't find some shirts in the right size and he was quick to find them. There are also some great photo spots right outside the store - with aliens, the mural, or the UFO prop. The prices are fair value (some items were a little more expensive then elsewhere) and in my opinion worth it.

    Our first cheesy alien tourist gift shop stop at Roswell! It's located on the northern end of Main…read moreStreet and worth a stop for the photo ops in addition to all the alien themed gifts inside! There is a large mural on the outside wall by Eddie Macias. A local artist whose artwork you will find all throughout the city! There are also alien and UFO statues you can take pictures with on the roof and right outside the building. Cassie was a gem and made us visitors feel welcome and gave us great tips about the city and was SUCH a good representative for the store and Roswell. Thank you so much Cassie for the great experience! The shirt designs and tie dyes as well as the magnets behind the register you can ONLY find at this shop. If you are interested in unique gifts I recommend asking what else can only be found at this shop!

    Loved it here! Comfort color Tees, cool hats/beanies, stickers, magnets, coffee, plushies and more…read more Spoke to an associate named Diane and it was such a great experience. She made sure to let us know of any pricing and deals that were going on. There was also coffee to try! My partner and I had went to another store up the road and it was night and day experience - Hangar 209 was better 100%. Great customer service, selection, and overall vibe. Price is good/fair for what you're paying for but for sure not a "budget" option. Quality is great though - shirts I got were comfort colors. The only thing I regret is not getting more stuff!

    To us, this was the nicest store in Roswell...so nice we came here twice actually!…read more As soon as you walk into Hangar 209 you are greeted warmly by one of the employees. I believe they even offered us free coffee and they are dog friendly so we were also greeted by some adorable pups! I love that and I especially love any space that makes our dog feel welcome. The vibe and aesthetic are relaxed and luxurious and it's immediately apparent that they're selling very good quality merchandise. I spent a lot of time looking at their custom shirts and sweaters and my husband spent a lot of time looking at their beef jerky. They have a local line called abduction jerky that had an amazing variety of flavors. On our first visit we were still checking out the downtown area so we grabbed some snacks and drinks and headed out but after touring the town a bit more and realizing what a gem this store actually is, we headed back before we ended our day so that we could pick up some more items. How often do you find a shop with ONLY 5 star reviews? This place is a gem. It really feels like they have something for everyone. If you're exploring the area and you're looking for a shop that's a bit more thoughtful, welcoming and well done, this is the place.

    Fantastic Experience!! The staff are fun and friendly…read moreI love the interactive displays It was truly creepy, and really exciting! I will be back again! Great value Thank you so much!

    Not counting our hotel , or shopping or eating , this was the activity we spent the most money on…read morein our time in Roswell, and it was by far the least worth it. I was really taken aback because of all the good Yelp reviews. I don't know if I am missing something or I came on a bad day but this is definitely not worth it in my opinion, especially when there are so many other fun things to do close by. When you enter The Alien Zone there is a tiny gift shop in the front and the girl behind the counter was watching a movie on her laptop. We asked for two tickets and paid $17.32. She pointed to the curtain and said "You're fine to go back and check it out. You can touch all of the props and take pictures." Once we walked through the curtain, I thought we were getting pranked. There was a wall full of toys like aliens and rats and spiders but they are all behind netting that has been zip tied together, so you can't touch any of it. Then you see a few displays with aliens that look like they are left over from some old escape room or something. Underwhelming is an understatement. We figured since we had already paid, we might as well try to have some fun, but it is so dark in the room that It's difficult to get a good photo. There are only two rooms and once we got into the second room it got really really warm. At the very end they have a lab coat that you can put on for photo ops I guess but we were literally sweating, so we just left. If you are reading reviews to decide which things are worth doing and which things are not, definitely put this on your not list. The UFO spacewalk is just a block or two away, it's less expensive, and way more fun. There are also plenty of alien photo ops all around the city, including the visitor center, that don't cost a penny.
