For me not antiques Riverside, CA Date went 11/9/25 (Sunday) Time went 11:53am (Relatively busy) Atmosphere: When I tell you I've been to quite a few antique/thrift stores in Riverside/Norco area I mean I've been to approximately 5 different stores in the past 2 days alone. The atmosphere here is far different from all the stores I've been to in the area. Although small, it's packed and wonderfully staged into small sections which makes it easier to envision items in your space; which is something most stores don't take time to do. Clothing is limited, but carefully curated and organized into sweaters, outwear, pants, and even plus sizes (which I haven't seen in other stores). COME HERE IF ... you're looking for furniture and unique Knick knacks and accessories for your home. There's a lot of it and this is the first store where I wanted to purchased everything I practically laid my eyes on. DOWNSIDE ... I laid my eyes on a table set I wanted to purchase for my soon to be first apartment, however, I decided to walk through the whole store first before coming back to purchase it. IT WAS SOLD by the time I walked back towards the front of the store. LESSON LEARNED HERE IS if you want something buy it right then and there because you quite frankly, YOU WILL NOT FORGET IT (a fitting name for the store) AND BE SAD YOU DIDN'T GET IT. There was also another girl who purchased the exact mini lamp I wanted on my way out as I was contemplating what I wanted to purchase. If you want something here just buy it because chances are it won't be there if you come back again. Ultimately, I will be back and feel like I found a gem with this location and everything is reasonable priced. read more

Really love this place. They have great finds. The staff is helpful. They can also coordinate delivery. Very fun experience each time I go.

I am almost surprised that this thrift store has a rating of 4.6. I came in a few weeks ago and asked to put a couch on hold. I gave a lady 20 to place it on hold and communicated with her that my boyfriend would be coming later that day to decide if we wanted to buy it. My boyfriend is in the Airforce and was coming from base from Moval. He was going to pick me up so we could both look at it but they closed at 4:30. So he couldn't pick me up to go with him. He got to the Antique Store looked at the couch then came home. When he got home he let me know he didn't communicate with the manager. I immediately was stressed & explained he was supposed to talk to the lady. By the time he got home and told me he didn't talk to them they were already closed. We then decided to go with another couch. So when the next day came I went back and apologized. Asked to put the money that I put down towards another purchase because I still wanted to support them. This lady starts complaining and cursing about the situation to her other coworker with blonde hair n glasses. I just want to say thank you to THAT lady because while the other lady was being extremely immature she was like "It happens. It's okay." Mind you i'm not against her being upset. I'm upset about the rudeness. I could have called earlier that day before I walked in but I wanted to apologize in person. & also I am a human being with my own matters. I don't think I need to explain my life to her for empathy. Another thing to add is I was not alone. I had my younger sister present while this lady was disrespectful. The other two women that I have seen work there were kind. But I believe it was the owner that was rude. So sadly I won't be doing any more business here. I wish I didn't even spend my 20 here. I once again understand where I went wrong and I apologized and she still wanted to lash out like a child which is my problem and the reason for my review. read more

April 4 2024 I am very disappointed of the rudeness of the staff and people who display their items in the store! Twice they have closed before 5pm and were not polite about saying they had to get home to cook dinner ! read more

Went in the other day looking for a gift for my brother and got exactly what I needed. This was such a cute store and I for sure will going again and again. Pricing is good on the majority of the selection. I recommend parking in the parking lot nearest to the donut shop quick in and out. Service was amazing such a nice lady helped me. read more

I was surprised this antique store existed. The few things spread outside the door drew me in to take a peek. There were a lot of house furnishings, a section of used clothing and jewelry. All of the items were in little vignettes. I was disappointed with my purchase. I had paid cash beforehand since it was a large item. However, the following day that I went to pick it up, it was broken in three different places. Owner of the area that I purchased from wasn't there for me to discuss the issue. read more

This store is huge. There are many little individual vendors inside so the owner/cashier will not be able to answer all your questions. However, they are very nice and are willing to help. This is a place where you can spend so much time and find so many goodies. They have lots of new inventories each time when I visit them. The prices are on the higher end tho. read more

The smell of mold smacked me in the face when I entered the store. I would never be able to spend much time in there. From what I saw, there was not a lot to keep me looking, but the mold drove me out quickly. When carrying vintage items, proprietors need to stipulate that none of the items are moldy. read more

Well the place is AMAZING and FUN to look at all they have there, I have never been to Antiques store that has been SO Wonderful. The woman on the phone seemed to be busy, maybe it's how they get wonderful things. Anyways I enjoyed walking through the few minutes I had on my lunch break. And before work and after work. Sometimes they aren't open though due to the area!!! Police need to do a WAY better job at protecting the public and businesses from CRIME and LITTERING on the side of their building!!! It's not a dumpling ground. So if anyone on here is the Police please help I know you all care about your city and small businesses. Someone left a cart in the cross walk on Elizabeth one morning blocking traffic right by the donut shop which I love too!!! read more

let's just say it feels like what you want from an antique store. limit parking out front but plenty across the street as there is a shopping center. beautiful window displays that change accordingly to season/holiday. multiple vendors each with their individual taste. Also a separate section that has nice vintage clothing (fairly priced). i usually come here for Disney items porcelain and ceramic duck figures. you can find it all here. Also, while moving around, I felt like I wasn't being watched down by the owners or any other employees. I felt like I was truly at peace looking for items that I wanted. good music . good vibes. donut store next door 5/5 read more

Wonderful hidden gem in Riverside. Cute little store with amazing vendors. Every nock is filled with a wide variety of items. Many different vendors add to the spicy and style of the store. Prices are amazing and employees are always willing to help you find what you are looking for. Can't wait to go back again next week. read more

I'M ADDICTED to Fabulous Martha's Forget Me Not store .... so I never forget about it! I've been an addict for years! She & those who rent spaces from her never disappoint with their myriad of unique & affordable finds with a high turnover so every week there are new items! I have decorated, redecorated & gifted so many pieces of furniture, lamps, chandeliers, artwork, statues, rugs, bowls, vases, jewelry, Asian art & screens, handmade items from Mexico, wallhangings, candleholders, etc ... I don't like the cookie-cutter, mass-produced decor one finds in so many chain stores today ... so Martha's Riverside hideaway brings an assortment of rare goods that are classy, unusual & make great gifts too yet won't break the bank unless you are an addict like me .... read more

This place was fun! Found a beautiful jacket from the 40's that I had to have. I felt like it was too high priced but bought it because of how much I loved it. I also found a Cashmere long skirt that I had to heave. I think the place needs a little love and organization but we had fun and found a couple treasures. I would definitely check prices. I felt it was a little high for things but you know how it is when you find something you really like! read more

A beautiful store with a great selection and prices to match! The owners are friendly and super helpful. Will definitely be coming back again and again to see what they have read more

This is definitely a happy place for me... Anytime I come in here I can't leave without getting something... This place holds nothing but Beauty!!! everything is priced very reasonably... The clothing items are awesome but I am very drawn to the home decor... Just a beautiful place!!! read more

Pretty cute shop and deceptively bigger than what you expect from first sight. If you're looking for antique furniture or home decor, then this is the spot for you! Anything other than that, you'll have to look elsewhere (ex: clothing, accessories, shoes, etc.) Although, sometimes you can find a few of these things depending on whatever inventory they get in during that time. Each stall in the shop has different sellers so you'll notice differences in pricing (some more pricier than others), and sometimes a few stalls will have their own separate discounts (ranging between 30-50% off). Customer service was good, not too great but not exactly bad anyway. Forget Me Not Antiques has a pretty maneuverable store layout and has a shabby chic set up within, which makes it fun to look through. If you're not specifically looking to furnish your house, then you can pass on this shop and save it for next time. Otherwise, definitely drop in for some quality antique furniture/home decor at decent prices! read more

Forget Me Not Antiques - Very cute, very vintage. Just one of the many stalls to look through at Forget Me Not Antiques! :) - Antiques Near Me - Riverside, California

I love coming here. It's local and has some good furniture and clothes to look thru. They're just terribly unfriendly. Not even a thank you when you purchase. It's been the last 2 times with separate employees. at least welcome your guests and ask them if they need help. Kindness goes a long way. Smh. read more

It is a great find. It is a drive for us but well worth it. People working there were very nice and professional and respectful. They helped us find what we needed. The pricing was excellent. Nancy and Gary read more

My absolute favorite antique store from sea to shining sea. This place never disappoints. Every time I visit I find a treasure. The store and merchandise is organized and aesthetically pleasing. Unlike many other of the neighboring shops there isn't a ton of "junk" to filter through. The shop keepers are almost always willing to negotiate on higher priced items. I LOVE this store and hope they stick around for a long time. read more

Hidden in a what looks like a small storefront in an industrialized neighborhood, you will be amazed to discover there are easily 30 something vendors here. Small stalls and a pathway that winds circuitously around. A fun adventure and some cool prizes for the antique treasure hunter. Yeah, also a lot of "junque". read more

Such a wonderful store with wonderful prices, so inexpensive! Love walking in here and exploring, the employee are always working on displaying items in such a fun eye catching way. Found a beautiful bracelet for my wedding only $16 and it looks like a million bucks and some decor items for the house. Service is friendly as well, if you love antiques this is a must shop store! read more

Forget Me Not Antiques - $16 bracelet - Antiques Near Me - Riverside, California

Very cute antique items. I've bought quiet a few pieces from there and I couldn't be happier. They're honestly not very expensive. A couple times she gave me a cheaper price because bought multiple items. This is my go to antique place. read more

Like other Yelpers said, looks small but has a lot of mini booths inside, all stuffed with stuff. I'm surprised at the high number of high ratings, but perhaps these folks don't shop these "Antique" places as much as I do. I have been antique shopping in the Inland Empire and even further around southern CA literally for decades. I'm guessing I've been to more thrift, vintage and antique shops than anyone. I have been price comparing for all things vintage onlne for 15 years too, so I'd classify myself as: "Purdy darn antique/vintage/retro savvy". Vintage has been a passion of mine since I was a kid. OK, the good and the bad my friends: The Good: Lots of stuff stuffed all around this eclectic place that extends farther back then the small store front shows. Prices were a bit mixed but quite reasonable for a antique mall in the year 2014. Nice mix of "stuff". Low expectations? You won't be disappointed. The Meh: A LOT of items that were no where near "vintage" and hardly even "retro". One example: A retro ***STYLE*** lunch box for $20 with NO indication it was NOT "real" vintage. A less savvy shopper might have been fooled. I dislike that sort of thing. Borders on dishonesty from sellers. A lot of 'older' junky furniture painted white, pink or sage green and scratched & scrapped a little to give them the tired "shabby chic" look. Wow maybe one day that expired style will finally die lol. In almost all these Mall type shops, sellers need to be made to keep booths very clean, easy to walk in and well stocked. This was a bit junky and crowded. The other "antique" shops along this same street were about the same. OTHERWISE please do check this place out, but keep expectations *low*. P.S. For the perfect example of what a great Antique Mall should look like, check out Precious Times in Redlands. The owners there keep a HUGE, super clean place full of REAL antiques/vintage (no newer junk ... They don't allow sellers to bring that stuff in) and a super great atmosphere. Their ONLY downside was high prices, though I have not been in several years. Hopefully they caught on that ebay will force high priced antique malls out of business unless sellers are reasonable. There used to be a lot MORE antique malls around the Inland Empire... They learned their lesson: Now people buy this stuff online for mostly cheap, and the Overpriced Malls failed by not keeping up with the times. :) read more

This is a great store with so many different styles! I shop there all the time and appreciate that there are always many changes. So many antique stores just have the same stuff....and look stale. Forget-Me-Nots is a creative and inspiring place and I get many ideas from there for my home design!! Love it!! read more

Unbelievable! We have followed this store on Instagram for years and twice in a row this incident has happened. We offer to buy through Venmo, Pay Pal, or Zelle because we're certain we want to purchase the two pieces of furniture they are selling. They dont accept those methods of payment so THEY OFFER to hold for a few days. Didn't trust them at this and reminded them they did the same once and yet sold the item before we could get to them. They insisted so we took the opportunity to rent a moving truck and plan the day to travel a couple of hours North to purchase and pick up the pieces. We then receive a message, an employee sold the items. What a disgrace and dishonest way to run a business. Put a name & number on the hold tag taped to the item on hold. If the person who first called dibbs on it doesn't show or if you wish to confirm the purchase, call. Twice they've done this is now. Damn shame! Loosing a customer may not be such a big deal to these people but eventually this type of action will catch up. We are so, so disappointed and disgusted! Rented a moving truck just to be told they sold the furniture right under from us..... again! More than unprofessionalism . We've had our own retail businesses as hobbies and NEVER treated any of our customers like this! No stars deserved at all! read more

Lots of great treasures, large and small at typically great prices ... A great find in Riverside. read more

Crazy things in here! I ended up buying a big letter C for 20 bucks. It was in good shape and can probably be rigged to light up! NICE! read more

I was doing some "therapy shopping" here after leaving my doctor's office. I was crying from the anxiety. I bumped into a wonderful kind-hearted man. We struck up a convo and it felt as if a weight was lifted. I saw a gleam in his eye and a sparkle in his smile. If it weren't for the severe stomach pains and horrendous gas I had at the time I'm sure our conversation would have led to more. I loved what I saw and how my shopping experience led to so many possibilities at this place! I believe it was my aura and Allah's divine hand upon my shoulders that day. I will be back. Oh yes, I will be back... Chris OUT! read more

Where do I start!? This place is a true gem! Every time I come here which is like weekly, I come out with something amazing! Everything is unique and so vintage! I love all my finds here. I have bought purses, dishes, books, fabric, home decor, frames, a mirror, planters and so much more. I can spend hours in this shop because there's so much! I truly love this store and you will too!! The staff is amazing and everyone helps and is so kind when you go. Thank you Forget me Not! We love you! read more

Great stuff. But TERRIBLE customer service. They do not help you, the owner is never at the register. Been waiting for about 10 minutes for someone to come up. And no one came up. read more

I love this store! I found some awesome school lockers that I'm using as part of a closet system. The owner is an amazingly kind woman who always works hard to improve her inventory. She has an awesome Instagram page where she posts all of her finds. The only downside is they sell so fast that it gets bought before I can get to it. read more

This small-to-mid-sized antique shop is worth the visit (especially because it's right next door to another antique shop). The front of the store had mostly furniture, but then as you venture back you can find more and more treasures and smalls. The treasure I took home was actually on display in the front of the store. I got a great deal on a half priced vintage ceramic santa planter. VERY happy with my purchase. Check it out! read more

Beautiful place! Beautiful things! Will return! I really enjoyed seeing the furniture here. I have a new favorite place!

My favorite antique store in Riverside! I try and go often since the merchandise moves fast, its one of those "here today, gone tomorrow " stores. I usually end up walking out with at least 1 treasure... Todays lucky find to add to my growing collection, an amazing Welby mid century starburst wall clock for an awesome price! The owner and staff are ALWAYS nice and friendly and the window display is eye catching as well. Its always a pleasure shopping here. read more

This is as good as it gets! Great finds! Great prices! Friendly shop keepers. I always find something special here. This store has survived the test of time. Customers return because they are treated fairly and given access to great merchandise. The sidewalk merchandise always catches my eye. Thanks for being there.!!!! read more

Love this place! They always have amazing finds and the prices are very reasonable. Beautiful furniture and decor I've also found some nice clothes and jewelry here. I would definitely recommend stopping by here and coming often. Every time I come back there is so much new stuff. It is so much bigger than it looks from outside. read more
