P/DM M. Furniture sofa tables. All seem rather contemporary than vintage or antiques. Owner friendly. Prices seem Reasonable

Mask-optional.  Yuck.
Pamela W.

Three times while visiting this shop the owner was wearing his gaiter around his neck despite there being a mask mandate in Durham at the time. I think it's important for other customers to know this as Covid worsens with the Delta variant. We did purchase a cute picture there at a decent price. But the lack of responsibility with the mask was very unusual for this community and honestly made me question if I would ever return.

This review is based on one visit, which may not be totally fair since consignment stores are by nature hit or miss. But on my recent visit, it was mostly a miss. The store is spacious and houses lots of furniture, and I especially liked how they set it up like a showroom (even complete with Christmas decorations!). I was surprised by the number of pieces that were dinged (wooden furniture with dents) and discolored (upholstery) -- in other words, some items seemed more "used" than "gently used." The prices generally reflect this though; I mean, $200 for an originally $2k price probably isn't all that bad! Generally, the pieces seem to be more traditional decor; but it's probably worth checking in from time to time since I'm sure their inventory switches out swiftly. The staff seemed really friendly -- greeted me on entrance and helped point out items to another customer in search of some wicker furniture.

Almost bought this floor lamp, but I didn't trust myself to travel with it! Kiddie section is in the back for small ones to keep busy in. :)

I don't even have my furniture yet, that's how impressed I was to write a review! Called in ahead of time with a few questions, which were answered cheerfully. Classic Treasures was first on my list of consignment stores to stop by this afternoon... but after three or four visits elsewhere I went back and bought the items I'd had my eye on. Prices and styles range to accommodate just about anyone. The little things are what make this place so great! There are tape measures hanging everywhere so you can take down furniture dimensions - didn't even think about it beforehand, but was so happy that I was able to double-check sizes before I made a purchase. Out of all the places I called, Classic Treasures had the longest hold time for purchases - I'm moving exactly one week from today and they were kind enough to agree to hang on to my new sofa until then since I don't have a trailer just yet. Very kind and helpful! Sad that I'm moving so far away from the area but I'll definitely be coming by again when I'm back in Durham! ((Long story short - if you're looking for quality used furniture, put this place at the TOP of your list!))

I went in on a whim. I was not greeted or helped and I found the place to be overpriced for used furniture.

This store is a true design gem (not just in North Carolina but nationally - especially due to…read moretheir robust online offering and incredible design industry knowledge) and the owners (Ivy and John) are absolutely amazing in every possible way - truly the sweetest people. As a principal designer (with a key focus on interiors) at an award-winning national practice, I have worked with countless retailers, supply houses and interiors consultancies. Without question, these folks are my absolute favorite supply partners and I work with them every possible chance I get (note that they also offer trade pricing should you happen to be an architect or designer). Over the years my wife and I have bought several pieces from them at various price points and have always been impressed by their level of service, responsiveness, kindness, enthusiasm and overall product (and industry) knowledge. I truly cannot say enough great things about either the store itself or the people behind it.

I can't speak for the in-person experience since I ordered online, but from my email engagements…read morewith the founder of Palette & Parlor, Ivy Simon, I have to say this was my most fabulous buying experience. I had purchased an item that turned out to be unavailable until October and while Ivy could have let me wait, she actually emailed me within 24 hours of my purchase to give me a chance to cancel the order if I didn't want to wait. I really appreciated her gesture and ended up keeping the order. She was very responsive through the entire process and I can't rave enough about my experience. Thank you Ivy and as I had let you know, you have a lifetime customer.

Meadowmont Village is the place my wife and I have visited the most during our time in Chapel Hill…read more(2020-2024), mainly because of the Harris Teeter here, but also because of the property's restaurants and other businesses. This is a nice mixed-use development on the east side of Chapel Hill, close to the Durham border. It's just a short drive down highway 54 from I-40 exit 273 and it's not far from 15-501 either. Meadowmont Village sets itself apart from competition in the area by simply being nicer with a cleaner and more elevated atmosphere. The architectural design, layout, and landscaping make it a quaint, relaxing place to walk around. The tenant mix is a good combination of chain and local. This isn't a bigger, destination-type development like Fenton in Cary. Instead, it's smaller and quieter, and that's part of the appeal. It's never felt crowded or uncomfortable all the times I've been here. It's easy to get in and out and there always seems to be just the right amount of people, even when it's busy (e.g., active patios at Brixx, Bluebird, and Kahlovera). There's a pond and trails nearby and overall, the entire neighborhood is well-kept. When we first moved to the area, my wife and I frequented the Harris Teeter up 54 at Hope Valley Commons in Durham. We then switched to the Harris Teeter at Meadowmont Village because it's more secluded and has a calmer, more peaceful environment (inside and out). While I think the Harris Teeter at Hope Valley Commons is a little bigger with a slightly wider variety of inventory, that difference hasn't been big enough for us to switch back to the Hope Valley Commons Harris Teeter as our primary Harris Teeter. Below is a list of businesses at Meadowmont Village that we've been to so far. I've left Yelp reviews for most of them. Restaurants and Cafes * Bluebird - French bistro, one of our favorite restaurants in Chapel Hill. https://www.yelp.com/biz/bluebird-chapel-hill * Brixx Wood Fired Pizza + Craft Bar https://www.yelp.com/biz/brixx-wood-fired-pizza-craft-bar-chapel-hill * Fusion Fish - sushi restaurant, now closed (replaced by Lime & Lemon). https://www.yelp.com/biz/fusion-fish-chapel-hill-2 * Kahlovera Mexican Bar & Grill - great for tacos and margaritas (replaced Chronic Tacos). https://www.yelp.com/biz/kahlovera-mexican-bar-and-grill-chapel-hill-3 * Lime & Lemon Indian Grill & Bar - one of our favorite Indian restaurants in the Triangle and the restaurant we go to the most at Meadowmont Village. https://www.yelp.com/biz/lime-and-lemon-indian-grill-and-bar-chapel-hill * Meet Fresh - yummy Taiwanese desserts, the first and so far only Meet Fresh in the entire state. https://www.yelp.com/biz/meet-fresh-chapel-hill * Quickly - bubble tea and Taiwanese snacks. https://www.yelp.com/biz/quickly-chapel-hill-chapel-hill * Starbucks https://www.yelp.com/biz/starbucks-chapel-hill-4 Other * ABC Store - I got my groomsmen bottles of Jack Daniels from this store, part of the Orange County ABC Store network. https://www.yelp.com/biz/abc-store-chapel-hill-3 * Bell Meadowmont - my wife and I toured the apartments and considered living here. https://www.yelp.com/biz/bell-meadowmont-apartments-chapel-hill * Harris Teeter https://www.yelp.com/biz/harris-teeter-chapel-hill-5 * Meadowmont Dentistry https://www.yelp.com/biz/meadowmont-dentistry-chapel-hill * Monkee's of Chapel Hill - my wife bought a sundress here. https://www.yelp.com/biz/monkees-of-chapel-hill-chapel-hill * The UPS Store - I've swung by this location several times to ship things. https://www.yelp.com/biz/the-ups-store-chapel-hill Not far from Meadowmont Village is the Rizzo Center. It contains a conference center and hotel and is home to the UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School's Executive Development programs and the historic DuBose Home: https://www.yelp.com/biz/rizzo-center-chapel-hill

If you got laid last night and the person who got on top of you was not particularly good in bed,…read morethen that was a Mediocremount, and you should go to Mediocremount Village instead. But if that doesn't apply to you then this fancy shopping area will work out fine. They're trying to be European and stuff, and it's cute. Reminds me of some of the fancier parts of Northern Virginia or Maryland, but it's not cheap here. It's a cute brand-new shiny shopping center with some boba tea and some desserts and some food and a lot of high-end shops. They tried to make it like a little shopping Village and while it does seem fake it and contrived, it also is a really nice place to hang out and get some stuff - and it's peaceful and safe and quiet and reminds me of Virginia in some ways.
