Check out their men's vintage clothing. Ask for Adam, he's terrific in putting an ensemble together in addition to being knowledgeable re eras. read more

This is a great place for a rainy day (or too hot day!). It is very crowded so while wheelchair accessible, there's not much area a wheelchair can go. There is a good selection of vintage clothes, matchboxes, buttons, loose silverware, audobon prints, colored glass, vintage post cards (some written on) and old playboys to name a few things. The prices for the most part seemed affordable. I was delighted they sold me a replacement top for a Pyrex dish that I had broken the top off. I paid $5 for it. There is limited furniture for sale but a few things like lamps at a good price. read more

Nice vintage shop in Carroll Gardens. It's organized and by no means small and there's a lot of items that you could slowly browse, including furniture, toys, clothes, dishware, old postcards, maps, jewelry, and more! Definitely a fun place to check out when it's too cold to be outside in NYC. read more

If you like vintage shops then you'll like Yesterday's News. They have a collection of vintage printer's box trays (love them); antique Brooklyn centric signs; vintage books, dishware, jewelry, etc... The prices run the gamut from extraordinarily good to pricey. The atmosphere is cluttered, as expected. I've had a pleasant time each time I went. If you're in the neighborhood it's worth a stop. read more

everything is still very dirty - it's as those items haven't even been wiped down - super inflated prices

This is a pretty cool antique place. It was fun to look at the items but this place is too pricey for me. There were some furniture pieces that i really liked but when noticing the price , I backed off a little. I do recommend going and perusing if you are by the area. You never know what you may find. read more

Great antique store! It's not super huge, but I still spend a lot of time in here. Good (not huge) selection of clothes but they're all very cool pieces and it's definitely curated. Lots of other cool things throughout the store. Would recommend to any vintage shopper! read more

Yesterday's News - Antiques Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

It's been many, many years since I visited this store (I think I may have bought a coffee table here many moons ago, but it's a good 30 minutes' stroll away) and it took THE LOCKDOWN to rediscover them. I started following them on Instagram- after noticing their daily posts on their vintage treasures for sale. The prices are always reasonable and the items are always unique. They offer curbside pickup after you pay online. I stopped by this week to pick up a a pair of vintage 80's Monet earrings I bought for $10. I'm not exactly sure when I'll be wearing them in my quarantine life but who doesn't need more costume jewelry from the garish 80's?I happened to spy a cool mid-century planter in the window so I ended up buying that too. I can't wait to check out their shop and vintage goodies IRL when they re-open. read more

This place is definitely interesting. It's the only store of its kind in Carroll Gardens and the surrounding areas. Each day that they're open, the store employees put a large selection of their items out on the sidewalk for potential buyers to peruse. That, alone, looks like so much work. Inside, they have an unimaginable amount of items to look through, as well. It ranges from plastic clothespins in a bowl, to mid century modern furniture, to old vintage dresses, and beyond. The staff can be a little abrasive at times, but I think it comes with the territory of being a really established small business that isn't particularly looking to please; they're just looking to provide. Honestly it adds to the charm of the store. I always stop to look at the vinyl records (they have some baskets of records for $1....amazing quality and value!). This is a really cool place to visit when you're in the neighborhood! read more

Poor customer service. When checking out, the clerk/owner decided to raise the price on an item I was buying by over $15 because they claimed it was too low. I'd look elsewhere and support an honest business. I wanted to like this place and would love to support local businesses, but places like this are disappointing. Save your money and buy online. Similar items are about 20-50% cheaper elsewhere. Most stuff here seemed to be new old stock or low quality costume jewelry. read more

There is this strange, but unsurprising phenomenon in NYC antique shops where they charge insane amounts of money for complete bullshit. Not here. Here they just have a lot of great furniture, kitchenware, posters, postcards, jewelry and more to discover. All of it is reasonably priced. And as an added bonus, they have an abundance of old Playboys, which appeals to the 12 year old boy in me. read more

Very disappointed with my experience at this store. I purchased an African braided hair band. As I proceeded to browse the store I was followed by a store manager(middle age white male) the whole time. Cute store. Avoid the anxiety of being followed and buy somewhere else or at least buy black. read more

Walked in for a weekday visit and saw that the owner has a few Donald Trump items prominently displayed by the register. I ignored it. We don't have to agree on politics. I just want to score some great vintage finds. That said, the way he stared at me while I browsed (it was Omicron and I was wearing a mask, he wasn't) and the two reviews from the people of color on this thread make me think there's something deeper going on here. I would avoid. It's mostly paper ephemera and old war stuff, anyway. read more

Best vintage furniture store in NYC. I just bought my dining room chairs here.

This is my go to place. Their variety and constant changing inventory makes me go back time and again. The staff is so friendly I've gotten to know them all. I frequently go into the city and this is on my route home and I'm always finding different and unusual things there. Love ya! read more

I admit that I only come here for the four for a dollar photos. They are kept in an old wash bin in the back of the store. Today I realized that looking at them is like viewing my own family photos. I have gone through them so many times that I recognize the subjects. This one goes to the beach and that one goes to church. This little boy is a boyscout and his dad is in the military. These people enjoy family picnics and boating. There are also nice furniture items and some eclectic kitchenware. Today I saw 6 collectors plates from my home state of Tennessee. It was strange to see them in Brooklyn and I chose to leave them behind. Cash and carry items are always available outside the store. These are usually wooden chairs, mirrors, end tables and the like. If you enjoy antiques with a little dust and no pretension stop here and give it a whirl. read more

Yesterday's News - Found Photo from Yesterday's News - Antiques Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

LOVE this store! It has great secondhand furniture at awesome prices. Everything is in very good condition. My roommate got a beautiful wooden chest for $140, which is basically the same price you would pay at IKEA for a cheap wood dresser. I got a beautiful side table to go in my living room for only $100. It is in great condition and has so much character! Linda the store clerk is an absolute gem, super helpful and even gave me a hug when I came to pick up my table. I will definitely shop here again soon! read more

I'd bought my first "grown up" piece of furniture here (a sewing cabinet), after years of vagabonding and living in furnished places. But it's not about me, it's about you, and what you can find at this NYC-priced-but-not-BK-Flea-shameful-markup antique shop. It's worth a stroll past to look at the furniture and items they have displayed on the sidewalk: usually pieces like tables, chairs, various houseware, and storage options from the 50s-70s, sourced by the proprietor(s) from estate sales in the tri-state. Inside the shop, there's more furniture (bigger pieces like cabinets), jewelry, household items, and paper goods like cards and stamps. Some great things I've seen but not purchased: typewriters, a school desk with ironworked curlicue sides, a flashy 1970s vanity with a mirrored top, all the better for your extracurriculars. Closed on Mondays and sometimes during rainy or bad weather. read more

I heart you, Yesterday's News! Though I'm never around the area, I am going to have to now because this is quickly turning into my favorite thrift shop. Wondering why? Oh, because the people are nice and not pushy. Plus, they have more than used bowls and charming costume jewelry; they've got vintage knickknacks that will make some squeal and furniture on the cheap side that will make others stop in their tracks to ask how much is for that dusty armchair. Usually the end result being cash thrown down and a happy camper skipping home with their newfound affordable love. read more

Definitely one of my favorite vintage stores to drop in around the neighborhood. They sell a nice selection of vintage furniture, jewelry (brooches, necklaces, earrings), a small selection of clothing, and general ephemera from the 1940s-1980s. And the prices are definitely reasonable when compared to some of the antique shops up on Atlantic Ave! It's kinda a small store, but packed to the brim with treasures. Somewhat narrow walking area inside the store, so those with claustrophobia need not step in. The stock rotates often (due to the reasonable prices) and new stuff is always flowing in. Say hi to Linda behind the counter--she's super friendly and loves to chitchat about vintage fashions! read more

This is probably my very favorite non-clothing vintage store in NYC so far. What I love about it is that even though, it's somewhat curated, you still have to dig a little to find hidden treasures. And when you find things, whether in plain view or hidden, the prices are more than reasonable. Heck, it's on par or even less than what Midwest dealers charge. That should tell you something. As I mentioned, you do have to dig a little. While it is curated, it's also a tiny space and not immaculately curated like a store in the city that would probably charge five times as much for the same pieces. That's part of this store's charm. They've got loads of cute vintage items for around the home... very few antiques (100 years or older), if you're looking for that, specifically. There's tchotchkes and some furniture inside, with the bulk of the furniture being outside. You can also find old metal milk crates and wood soda crates outside. It's like a rustic, industrial vintage paradise out there. The owner is also pretty nice in that gruff-Brooklyn kind of way. Also, extremely knowledgable. They sell old seltzer bottles for $20 - cheaper than anywhere else I've seen - and he was going into this story on how there's only one place in Brooklyn these days that does genuine seltzer refills. Seriously, he knows his stuff. The sad thing on my part is that despite having gone there a handful of times, I have yet to purchase anything from there. But hopefully they'll soon have the few items I'm looking for so I can buy them. This is really a store I want to support. read more

Jackpot. The prices are super reasonable. In fact I thought they'd be more expensive considering Brooklyn. I found a ton of bedroom furniture I wish I could lug on the plane ride home. Happily picked up a few vintage signs with awesome typography. Only $2 for 5! If I lived in town I'd visit frequently and develop a super dangerous habit. read more

I was seriously conflicted about writing this review. I mean, this might very well be the last place in Brooklyn where you can still get cheap, secondhand furniture that's in good shape. And every time i go there everything i love is already sold. It was a secret i wasn't sure i wanted to tell. But in the end, i want them to stick around and i want others to have a place where they can get a side table for $30 or an Art Deco style dresser for $150. They've got chairs, tables, wardrobes, odd gadgets, dishes, jewelry, posters, clocks, mirrors--general thrift shop finds. I go out of my way to stop in even if i don't need anything just to see what they've got b/c the prices ensure lots of turnaround, so there's often new stuff and it doesn't stick around long. I'm shocked (shocked!) that this place exists. I wish there were more places like it. P.S. These folks also run Brownstone Treasures, a few blocks away at 220 Court Street. Same great stuff. read more

Great for old photos... I sat there for 2 hours looking through the giant piles. The nice lady gave me a discount when I didn't even ask for one. LOVE read more

Love this store. They have really cool furniture at very fair prices. I've found everything from an antique rocking chair to an old piano bench that serves as a platform for the cats to eat on. Yesterday's News rotates merchandise fairly quickly, so if you see something you really like it's probably smart to buy it right away. The owner is very sweet and will give you a wintergreen LifeSaver if you pop in to look around. What more can you ask for in an antiques store? read more

I absolutely love Yesterday's News! I've lived in the neighborhood for about 11 years and over the years have purchased an awesome, mid-century upholstered chair for $60, wonderful, sturdy hardwood oak dining chairs (from a nun's retreat!) for $30 each, a set of cool retro water glasses, vintage wooden crates/boxes, jewelry and other assorted odds and ends. The prices are incredibly good. At an upscale antique store the prices could easily be double (or more). Linda and Craig are staples in the neighborhood and ask me about my life and just make the experience wonderful. Most of the time I'm just walking by and window-shopping. Highly recommend browsing for treasures on a regular basis! read more

They're in the Sunday NEW YORK TIMES for a reason!!! Way to go Colleen and JP! They know vintage quality. There's a lot of love and pride in this store, each piece they choose tells a story.

You know what I love about this place? It's the only decent antiques store I know of in NYC where you can buy cool, old stuff that isn't ridiculously overpriced. They've got new stuff to look at every time I stop in, the people that work there are nice, but they don't harass you too much either. If you see something you like, better snap it up quick! There's pretty fast turnover here. read more

This is the sister store to Brownstone Treasures, which is further north on Court St in Cobble Hill. This location is about twice the size of Brownstone Treasures, though the Cobble Hill location seems to get the more prime furniture pieces as far as I can tell. Like the other location, there is pretty good turnover in the store, and a good variety of pieces. This may not be the place to find that rare Louis 14th dining set, but they have a lot of great looking, very affordable items. It's definitely one of the best priced antique stores I've been in in NY. My favorite are the lovely wooden wardrobes that are actually cheaper than the fiberboard Ikea ones. read more

You can find less expensive, higher quality antiques at city flea markets or small town thrift stores. All sales are final at Yesterday's News, so if you realize your antique is in bad shape when you get home, you're out of luck. I purchased a 19.5" x 23" mirror there. It's probably from the '70's. The heavy, wood frame was a bit beat up (like all their wooden furniture), but It was pretty enough for the $50 they were asking. The mirror itself was very dusty since they display their mirrors outside. When I went home and dusted it off, I realized that the mirror had a rusty patch behind it, and the left side was warped. It was also generally dull (the reflective metal behind the glass is wearing away/beginning to rust). In other words, the important part was not worth $50. I carried the mirror back to the store two weeks after I bought it, but the nice woman that worked there said sorry, I couldn't even exchange it. She was nice about it, but we both knew I was getting ripped off. I believe the owner (who is not the lady that works there) has an all-sales-final policy because he knows a lot of his inventory isn't good. That's why I say, unless you're just there to browse, you're really better off at a flea market or small town thrift store. read more

Hands down one of the best vintage/antique stores in New York City, the prices are great - they have wonderful finds, the staff is friendly and helpful. I always have a good time shopping here... heck I might make a trip tonight. I would highly recommend anyone visit this store. read more

Love this place. Extremely nice and cute antique items for a reasonable price. Got a very cute plant stand (well, I'm making it a plant stand) from here! :) They take all forms of payment and are currently open for business with masks required--if you're wondering. read more

I have a love hate relationship with this place. i think their merchandise is cool, chabby chic and constantly revolving which is nice. What I have a problem with is their prices. I was looking for a dresser on craigslist and found one that was nice for $10. Unfortunately it was sold. To my surprise, the next day I saw the same dresser for sale at yesterday's news for $300! i understand that they have to make money but greedy is greedy and these people are as greedy as they get. No deals to be found here. read more

I pass by this antique shop a few times a month on my way to work and yesterday I saw they were selling a vintage produce crate with a blackface image on it. In this racially divided climate when so many in the public eye have come under fire for either wearing or defending blackface, I found this to be highly inappropriate and insensitive. Yes, blackface is a part of American history, but you can choose not to sell items that are offensive to many Americans. And I know African Americans who collect black memorabilia as a way to reclaim the stereotypes, but this is a predominantly white and Italian-American neighborhood. So by having this item visible in plain sight on the street to everyone who passes by, are the owners of this store sending a message that they endorse the sentiment behind blackface that mocks and degrades African Americans? Whatever the rationale, selling such items is in poor taste. read more

I've been in the neighborhood for about 18 years and always like perusing this shop for bric a brac, tzochkies, and oddities. I just wish they didn't tack on an extra charge when you pay with a debit/credit card. I own a small business in Brooklyn, and it's standard that businesses, no matter how small, eat the cost for a paying customer's convenience. This practice is not only illegal, tacky, and passe, it's about as outdated as the register machine they use to ring you up. Be prepared to shop with cash if you don't want the annoyance of taking part in penny pinching. read more

I initially walked in here to browse as I do with most antique shops. Reason being, it's usually ridiculously overpriced. My first visit however, ended with m buying a CRAP LOAD of stuff cause I felt I was getting a tremendous bargain on everything. And I was :) I can't recommend this place highly enough. If you have a soft spot in your heart for antiques, you should definitely visit this place. read more

It should be called "Grandma's Basement," because that's what it feels like browsing in here. Incredibly low prices, fun, interesting finds (last time I was there they had a big stack of old rock music fan magazines from the late 60s-early 70s), and the older woman at the counter is always welcoming and friendly. A must for lovers of vintage kitsch. read more

This place had so much fun to look through! Some items were so old, so vintage, so antique that I didn't think anyone would carry them. They have cards/postcards/magazines from past years and some were even addressed to people. I'm a postcard collector so when I saw all the postcards they had, I was enchanted. I ended up buying two postcards of old Brooklyn, which were really neat. What I liked about the store is every time you thought you were done looking somewhere, you opened a drawer and a whole new world unfolded. It can get overwhelming, so make sure you have enough time to browse. They have some pieces displayed outside of the store, which unfortunately the one I liked was already sold. There were so many items to look at and so little time. Staff was super friendly and knew the neighbors pretty well. I would definitely go back! read more

I have been shopping at this local vintage/antique store for many years but have been careful never to go overboard. They have fantastic inventory which turns over quickly, a very friendly staff (JP, Colleen, Craig, Linda) and excellent prices. Whether it is mid-century art, Pee Wee Herman trading cards, vintage women's clothing, or really cool furniture, this is a great place to shop. And now that it has expanded, it really is the place to shop. read more
