    Delightful Store With ODDEST (ie. COOLEST) Things! SITREP You're in Austin? And you want to know one of the ways how they "KEEP AUSTIN WEIRD!"? THIS STORE. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/aarons-rock-and-roll-austin?select=S4Ttw_aczgCIbueraZ71Dg THE SETUP One of the main drags in Austin is E. 6th Street. But if you really want to get the flavor of this street - and Austin in general - you need to get yer ass outta da car and walk it. Otherwise, you are gonna miss absolutely fun chestnuts like Aaron's Rock & Roll ("Aaron's"). STUFF! COOL STUFF. ODD STUFF. RANDOM STUFF. You walk in and it's a veritable plethora, bazaar, (cornucopia?) of absolutely gut-wrenching laughter items and very cool clothing. [For my Sacramento-yeeps, think of a smaller version of Evangeline's in Old SacTown - same vibe!] But...... ....I also had a more sinister purpose in mind....(which will make my cats hate me...) * WIZARD HAT - this is coming out during Halloween for my Pocket-Panther Jack - he gonna be a wizard! https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/aarons-rock-and-roll-austin?select=fUrJ_BLD3AV4UcN9ojxR3g * MY FAVORITE ITEM! A UNICORN HORN! - my Pocket-Panther Bobby is gonna absolutely hate me, but...he'll look pretty dam festive with it on. ;^D https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/aarons-rock-and-roll-austin?select=SD7BSyU7Zw8y2dfA6xXnKg THE LOWDOWN Give the store a perusal chance, grab something WEIRD for you and/or grab something to make your cat hate you EVEN MORE!

    when you first walk into the store

    One of my favorite shopping experiences while visiting Austin ! Love all the band shirts , horror movie action figures & sick posters . You should definitely visit while in Austin or going down 6th street.

    Baby "break on thru to the other side!"

    We recently had a really fun trip to Austin and stumbled across Aaron's Rock & Roll. As a music player and lover this store took me back to my high school daze! We got our favorite band shirts for ourselves, family, and even our grandkids! This is the kind of novelty shop we appreciate! Cheers to the crew at Aaron's R&R for being there when we came through town!

    It doesn't matter what time of year it is, it's always Halloween in here!

    Spencer's at your local mall only wishes it could be as half as cool and awesome as Aaron's Rock & Roll store. I've been shopping at this place for over 20 years now and it will always be my go to source for unique gifts. Not just another cookie-cutter souvenir store, you'll truly be hard pressed to find such an weird array of retail odds and ends gathered for sale in once place anywhere else.

    Shopping local for stocking stuffers for the wife and the former teen. Shana was with me so we…read moreseparated, this place has so much stuff, almost too much, it can be overwhelming and you know you missed things. There are 3 or 4 separate areas you can visit and they have things from locally made earrings and art to coasters, desk plates, rubber ducks of famous people, religious candles with random famous people, funny socks, clothes, and so much more. The staff is friendly and outgoing, they even had a woman at the door greeting you and offering you a hand basket if you wanted or needed one. There were 3 or 4 cashiers and at least one lady walking around greeting you and seeing if they could help. It is pricier then your chain store but the products are cooler, unique, and many times locally made. Things you can't get at other stores or amazon. Like so many places, it's one downside is parking. It is a small lot, if you part in front you basically have to back in to spot blocking traffic or back out into traffic. There is a small side lot that is better but you basically have to 3 point turn out of that spot. Always willing to pay a bit more to support local. We don't get out of our area/comfort zone much but we do love this place. #Supportlocal

    Alright, so it took me about six years to return to this place because I had some major PTSD from…read morean employee (who still happens to work here unfortunately). However, this time was a lot different and I was able to find the perfect gifts for my friend's birthday as well as fun items for myself. It seems like the selection has remained the same although Atown is keeping up with current and modern trends. For example, there were a lot of ICE based items tucked away as well as current celebrity crushes who are on everybody's minds. The coolest thing I found was a James Talarico candle but other than that, a lot of the items that were for sale were pretty kitschy and I believe they are the same wholesale items I have seen before. I must shoutout the incredibly helpful service from Audrey who went above and beyond to help me find items for my friend's birthday. She was super sweet, and I would've been wandering around the store aimlessly if it wasn't for her direction. Additionally, she even came up with combination gift ideas which was pretty sick. Atown is lucky to have her! I think my PTSD is no longer because of her assistance. Great store, unfortunately high prices. However, no one does it like Atown!

The dresses mostly run over $100 and aren't exactly my style. The prints are mostly fun and colorful and almost 60s-70s ish. I found their sterling silver jewelry and earrings to be more interesting. They had lots of unique flower shaped earrings that ranged around $32-44. They also sell kids clothes and gifts. The interior was a little dark. The dresses were mostly made of stretchy or comfy fabric. The dresses are more casual in nature (wrap dresses, summer dresses). They also sold bathing suits for around $80. I don't know if the bathing suits are made in-house.

Dresses I looked at were between $120-$200+ but I it was clear that they used inexpensive materials and not natural materials much at all. The sale items were still overpriced to me too. The sale items I saw in this place go for about $15-$50 max at a cheaper fast to fashion places in Michigan. The styles and trends are on par with every H&M store or blank fast to fashion spot you can think of. Do be aware of what you wrote in your review as the owner is quite sensitive and spiteful and can be mean if your reviews are not glowing towards her store or her products. 3 stars was tantamount to a slap in the face to her. First she had my revised review removed by Yelp because she didn't like my honesty and then she wrote me a nasty personal message telling me I have no style and no design background to be giving her only 3 stars, but she assumed this out of anger and not because she knows anything about me. Well she went down from 3 stars to 1 and if I could have given her 0 stars I would have gladly done so, given the opportunity due to her extremely foul personality. This is her customer service face, do be aware. I can see how Csilla is overly protective and it's abundantly clear how she can get when someone isn't glowing in their reviews. See the other only honest and low review on here. Perhaps Csilla may one day realize that we all have a right to our own opinion, that's the point of Yelp, to allow for honest and frank opinions about a person's experience with a business on here. Am I wrong? Is the credo of Yelp to put false and fabricated niceties of friends and family of the business owner to make it appear they are better than they are? The message may have seemed innocuous to her, but not to me. I hope she keeps her venom and foul personality far away from me. I might add instead of wasting her time replying and making that public scene on here she didn't want, why not work on honing your clothing designs and using better and more natural fabrics or possibly changing your pricing scheme for the quality and fabrics used. I can only guess now after my unpleasant dealings with her that she must have bullied all of her 5 stars into their reviews, that's not the first time I have seen this from a business owner on here. Bullying is not okay on here.

    I was so glad to see this spot was still here when I visited Austin again a few weeks ago!…read more I visited this fun store about 5+ years ago when visiting a friend who lives in Texas and I remembered on this trip that they have a table with a bunch of crystals on it. We were nearby having lunch and walked over and it's still there! Tons of beautiful crystals and I was able to get a Rose quartz and two smokey quartz towers - all really good quality for insanely good prices. They have some great vintage clothing inside and some cute accessories and fun items. Great location near to some other cool shops and finds and Hillside Pharmacy for fabulous bites. Super friendly staff who wrapped my gems up with love and care for the trip back to VA. A+

    Charm School Vintage is one of my favorite stores in our neighborhood…read more They've carefully curated vintage pieces with western flair (clothing, jewelry, etc). In addition, you'll be able to find items from various eras as far back as the 30s through the 70s. I've seen some stuff there even older than the 30s. Everything is of exceptional quality and condition. Not only do they sell but they buy as well. If you've got vintage wear you'd like to get rid of, try them. They give cash or credit for things they'll buy from folks. As with most stores like this, you'll get more in store credit for your stuff. Fun fact: they've also got a location in Waco.
