I hadn't been here in years and I regret it. I should have been visiting more often because they…read morehave such cool stuff! This business has been around for many many years. It's full of fun gifts, home decor and funny unique items. I strongly recommend you visit the back room. Because who doesn't need a pot holder that says "I f#*%!ing love cheese!" They have several adult humor items in the back of the store and my husband and I had a good laugh. The front of the store has more tame and family friendly items. Lots of good gift ideas for a wedding, shower, graduation or just to get something for yourself or a friend. The woman attending the store was very personable and friendly. She offered gift wrapping for my items and had pleasant conversation without being pushy. The only reason for the 4 star instead of 5 is because it's so cluttered. There is stuff everywhere! They seem to have an organization to it but it's hard to shop. They're us stuff floor to ceiling crammed in there. It's hard to navigate through and if you were a bigger person or had to use a walker or a cane it would be even more difficult. But overall a neat store!

This shop has a lot of neat things, but most of it was stuff I had seen before in other shops and…read moreit was a little pricey. It is nearly impossible to move around if there are other shoppers in there because the aisles are so narrow and there is just stuff packed and packed in. I found a bracelet I wanted to buy so I went up to pay for it, sat it on the counter, and waited for both of the women working behind the counter to stop texting on their phones before they acknowledged I was there. HUGE turnoff.

Short Version: Very-cute little store of vintage and upcycled items. Everything is extremely clean…read moreand in good condition. Surprisingly great prices. Lots of chalk-painted furniture. Very friendly owner, and she collects/redesigns/repaints the items herself. Definitely lots of cute stuff here. Directions and Hours: This store is ONLY OPEN the first Thursday through Saturday of every month. The first day needs to fall before the Thursday of that week. (For example, if April started on Friday, the store wouldn't be open until the proceeding week. If April started on Monday, it would be open that week). The store is located BEHIND Simpson's Furniture on Main Street. It's a bit tricky to find, but you'll end up seeing a tiny sign on the property. Turn onto E 23rd street, and even when it turns into gravel, KEEP GOING. Go until the gravel "ends" then turn right. You'll quickly see Hatchlings and Hen's signage. The store itself is down the driveway. Long Version: This is a neat, home-run type of store. As far as I can tell, it seems to be a small shop in a workshop. The directions above will help you find it. The area feels like shopping a garage sale - but in a cute and fun type of way. No bathrooms or anything because of that. Hatchlings and Hens sells a variety of neat, repurposed and vintage-esque type of items. It looks like a lot of items were repainted or cleaned up in order to be sold, and the owner does a surprising job of finding fantastic sets. For example, there was a kitchen table with a matching 4 chairs available for purchase (only $175 for the set! I would have bought it if I needed a kitchen set). There were also other sets like matching bird decor or awesome wall art. There was some industrial-type of furniture and whatnot too - as well as industrial salvage that might help you out if you were looking to do some DIY for yourself. I didn't end up purchasing anything today, but I plan on coming back in the future. The owner was super friendly, and I really did fall in love with a coupe things that I can't quite think of a place for at the moment. I'm looking forward to seeing how the stock and everything changes from month-to-month.

Though I understand it was probably a long day for the employees, I felt as though the customer service I received was absolutely unacceptable. After stripping down to nothing to try on dresses, my attendant would not listen when I told her what I wanted, and instead was content to let me rifle through the racks alone. I left nearly in tears after such a terrible experience. A real bummer, since I had heard great things. Not a great start to wedding planning.

Everything is really clearly and nicely organized, and it was ridiculously easy to find exactly what I wanted. Attached to here is a large room (looks like they bought out the store next to this store in the strip mall) with lots of newer tables and chairs for game nights. Looks like Dark Vassal Gaming focuses pretty heavily on trading card games and trading card game accessories. I didn't see any board games or figurines or D&D stuff. While they were already sold out of the set we were looking for, the employee was super friendly and helpful and had a very extroverted personality. We ended up finding a different set we hadn't seen before, and we left feeling a bit jealous that this wasn't a place that existed a couple years earlier when I lived in the city. Everything we were browsing seemed to be sold at or pretty close to MSRP. Didn't see any price gouging.
