I completely disagree with Aretha B's post above. Yes, the shop is expensive, and yes, there are a…read morelot of tourists there. But, it's on Martha's Vineyard - everything is expensive, and it's full of tourists. So you should expect to find that at Menemsha Blues just like you would anywhere else. It is similar to Black Dog, but not as big, and not as ubiquitous. I also disagree with characterizing it as a "chain." It's a local store that has several physical locations in the area. As far as their products: the quality of everything they sell is excellent. We bought several clothing items from them, and they were worth every penny. My husband seriously considers a trip back just to buy more of the polo and button-up shirts there because he loves them so much (and you can't get most of the items on their website, which is the only slight issue I have). He routinely gets stopped while wearing their items, because people like the small fish logo and it's so unusual, and they want to know where he got it. By all means, go to Menemsha Blues, and the original store in Menemsha is quite charming. If you dislike paying for quality items or buying from a store that has several locations in the area it was founded, I guess you can skip it, but you're doing yourself a disservice.

There were very unique and modestly priced jewelry items, gifts for almost anyone I could think of. I purchased four cards. Very nice selection ..... Many "fun gifts" mage from recycled and repurposed items. The kitchen cutting boards are bright and colorful... I have been visiting family and this is the first time I have ever seen this unique store. The woman working was so kind and helpful. If you happen to be in the Barnstable/Hyannis area, please take a peak. Some of the stores turn over quickly. I am almost certain Alium will be in business for years to come. The prices range from $ -$$$. Soaps, art, ornaments, etc!

The shop is packed to the gills with shoes, tops, dresses, coats, jewelry, menswear, and more. They also carry a variety of sizes, which makes for an inclusive experience not usually found at vintage shops. I found the cutest linen pants for about $20 in the consignment section, and it's definitely one of my best finds this summer. Everything in the shop ranges from 10-100 USD (ish), so in terms of Nantucket pricing, it's a pretty good deal. Service is warm and friendly, we love Marcella, the knowledgeable clerk who assists us every time we go. She is a delight to chat with! This hidden gem is absolutely worth adding to your Nantucket adventures!
