The staff were helpful, they have baskets around to collect all your goodies for purchase. They had a small sale/clearance section. They also have a cute pet and kiddo section. This store is always in my go to for all my shopping needs.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience here shopping for (and purchasing) an engagement ring. I…read moreknew I wanted an antique ring and I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted from a lot of online shopping. We went to a more ritzy place in DC first, and while their rings were gorgeous,they were also way out of our price range, and the selection of antique rings was pretty small. So we popped in to The Antique Guild after I looked at their website. Mara, the owner, and her staff were so warm and welcoming. They took the time to listen to me about the style I was looking for, and showed me several rings in our price range. We ended up blowing the budget just a little when Mara showed us something that was just perfect! I'm so happy that we found such a beautiful ring, but also that I have such great memories of our experience purchasing it. I highly recommend The Antique Guild and will definitely be back. (If you're not looking for a ring, they have a beautiful and diverse selection of other antiques!)

Will never return or recommend and will use every opportunity presented to remind others of how horrific this shop is and better alternatives (THERE ARE PLENTY OF BETTER, NOT RACIST OR PROFILE-LIKELY VINTAGE SHOPS IN OLD TOWN AND WITH BETTER ITEMS TOO!) nothing was priced right as well and most things were extremely dirty disgusting dusty and disorganized.

I like all of the plates and decorative items near the entrance, but the sections of items are not clearly labeled and I'm unsure of the logic of the organization. Paintings are also scattered on the first and second floors - hanging items in general aren't organized well. Photo frames, especially the small ones, are overpriced in my opinion. The appliance section is very limited and I haven't seen much of anything worth buying. I haven't really interacted too much with the people working there, but I've never had any issues with checking out. Most of the items worth checking out are by the front, but I've found some great clothing and artwork in the back areas. Plus, they have discounts on select items that changes on a regular basis. Overall, a typical thrift store and a fun stop if you're visiting Old Town Alexandria.
