I drove over an hour to visit Pattye's Closet after seeing photos online that made it appear to…read morehave a great vintage selection in a charming area. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing from the moment I arrived. During posted business hours, there was only a handwritten "back in a few" note on the door. After waiting about 20 minutes, the employees casually returned eating popsicles and never once acknowledged or greeted me when I entered the store. I attempted to engage and asked about inventory, but the staff were extremely unhelpful and seemed completely uninterested in assisting customers. On top of that, much of the vintage merchandise was heavily worn beyond what I would consider fair used condition, yet priced far above market value for the quality. Sadly, the lack of professionalism and poor customer service alone are enough to keep me from returning.

Unfortunately had a bad experience here a couple weeks ago and probably won't ever return…read more The most unhelpful and unfriendly store associates work here - when customers walk in, they hardly say hi nor take their eyes off of their phones. In my particular case that left a bad taste in my mouth was I wanted to purchase some cute rings which were quite affordable - they were $2 each. But when I went up to the register, I was told that the minimum amount for a card purchase was $10, which I did not meet. (I picked out 3 rings for a total of $6) I also did not have any cash on me. I then proceeded to look in all the nooks and crannies of the store to see if I could find something else so I could meet the minimum. Mind you, I was a very committed customer that was wanting to purchase items! However, I couldn't find anything else and got zero help or attention from the workers. I think what would have helped is if they at least asked what I was looking for or help directed me to some places to look. So I then just walked out without purchasing anything and took my business to another vintage store down the street!

Having worked on vintage spaces, I can be a bit of a snob. The bearded beagle is such a perfect…read moreintersection of taste, service, and customer service. The space offers eclectic options for lots of different styles, but more importantly - they offer SIZING for most/all body types - which is uniquely uncommon. The price point is fine, most items in a 30+ range. I LOVE their jewelry selection, tons of good options and unique pieces. lastly the staff is very engaging and welcoming, another sadly unique quality. They only offer trade for what they buy from community, but I feel the relationship with the sellers reflects the quality of items they are bringing into the space.

Pros: Very organized (separated by category, color, and men/women), unique items (they take time to…read morecurate items that you may not find elsewhere), and good quality (items seem highly satisfactory to almost new). Service workers are usually friendly. One of the better thrift stores on the street. Cons: Price (some pieces may not be worth the price and you could be better off buying some shirts or other items new) and you could have trouble donating your items there as they could be selective in what they choose to keep. Note: There is metered parking.

She's been really condescending on other visits too, like asking me to leave when I'd have my phone out sometimes when I'd come by, not even when I'm on the phone. I don't know what her problem is but definitely won't be back anytime soon. Really disappointing cause there's a lot of cool stuff in there but her attitude really ruins the experience. If you're looking for a good thrift store experience in the area the Out of the Closet a few blocks up is a lot better.

Dresscue was a nice find as we were making our way to a different store after lunch…read more At first glance, we were quickly intrigued but became confused at the same time. We couldn't figure out how items were organized. Each rack had a mix of different styles, brands and sizes with a few showing varying percentages off. Pricing was also inconsistent. But since we enjoy a good hunt, we just started digging into the racks. The husband was first to find a vintage Van Halen concert t-shirt. I then spotted a Farm Rio (NWT) shirtdress. Both were very reasonably priced. At the register, it was explained how the store is organized and the options sellers have in pricing -- then it all made sense! What a smart concept! Super friendly people. Clean, organized and overall well-priced. The nicely curated items are in good to excellent pre-loved condition. During our visit we saw a staff member steam cleaning clothing that had been tried on before returning them to the rack -- love that! Dresscue is now a must visit when we're in Atwater!

There is a 14-day minimum and each rack holds up to 50 items + 5 accessories (shoes & bags). The racks were nicely curated and a wide range of styles were on display. Some items were reasonably priced others were on the high end. However, you will find some deals that are 10% or 15% off. I happened to spot one rack where 100% of the proceeds were donated to Dogs Without Borders, which I think is fantastic. If I'm in the area again I'll stop by to see what is new.

The front of the store showcases a great selection of clothing in amazingly good shape. Along the walls and on a large table were some glassware and kitchen items. As I looked back, large lettering that spelled out FURNITURE directed me to the rear of the store. I took a couple steps in, then quickly went back to grab the husband. We spent most of our time looking through every inch of this room. There was so much to appreciate in the beautiful handcrafted solid wood furniture and in all the lovely decorative pieces. The nostalgia was wonderful. We've been on the hunt to complete a mid-century wrought iron patio set we found at Pasadena Flea Market. The Lucky Pig didn't have what we needed today, but I suspect we may find it on another day, so we'll be back!
