The Old Steeple has a variety of seasonal gifts, home goods, a few food items, and decor. I agree…read morewith the other reviews that it's more of a gift store than antique shop. I would estimate that only about 10% of the inventory was antiques and many of these were bigger items like dressers. Several of the products I looked at were made by small businesses, such as the soaps and seasoning I bought. We came in December so the store had a lot of Christmas decor while we were there. I'd love to come back during another time of year to see what they have then as well!

I absolutely have to give this place credit for being such a cool shop, but it fell short of my…read moreexpectations. I paid a quick visit after going to Mayer Bros - this place is right down the street crossing Transit road, and is so easy to spot! They've got a small parking lot beside the building. The Olde Steeple itself is absolutely gorgeous - it's an old church built in 1880, and at one point the building had been burned down almost entirely. Extensive renovations eventually brought the Olde Steeple back to life, giving it new purpose by way of becoming a lovely shop, where you can now find some of the cutest home decor, craft items, even teas and coffee! The small barn in the back was donated to the Olde Steeple in 2010, and houses a ton of cool antique furniture pieces. I thought this place would lean more toward being an antique shop, but I didn't find very many antiques here besides what could be found in the barn. (They're listed in Sunday Driver, which is an antique shop directory for NY, so had guessed they would've had more antiques to offer.) I would classify it more as a country store if anything, though one that leans a little more toward the expensive side. I also thought this place would have had more locally made products. They had some awesome homemade jams, but the tea I bought came from SC, and one of the little decor items I bought came from China. The doily I bought also appeared to be mass-produced. I also noticed a lot of 1803 Candles products, which is a company based out of IL. There's nothing wrong with that, of course, but I would have looked more forward to spending what I did if they maybe had some Alpine Made stuff, or maybe some Amish linens and doilies? Maybe I got the wrong idea about what this place was supposed to be. But I will definitely visit again now that I know what sort of things they offer here. Just...don't plan on doing any serious antiquing at this place. Day 22

I ordered an ornament online for in-store pickup. I received an email that my order was ready for pickup and that I had seven days to pick it up. I arrived at the store around 10am and it was already very crowded with a long line. I browsed for a bit to avoid the line. I got in line at 10:15am. There were two people at the counter and about two people in front of me. I stood waiting for about 15 minutes. The phone was ringing off the hook and the lady answering was very rude from what I could hear. When it was finally my turn at the counter, I told them I had a pick up order. The woman took my name and went to search for it. She came back and couldn't find it. She asked for my order number and to see the email. She went looking again and no look. The other employee said to just give me one off the shelf and she did not want to. The other employee then went off to search for it. It was now past 10:40 and I had an 11am appointment someplace else. I could not wait much longer. The woman was gone for a long time searching for a now 3rd time. when she came back, I told her I couldn't wait much longer and didn't have time to come back to the store. She was incredibly rude and acted like her not finding my order was my problem, rather than hers. She got snippy with me and said if I am sure i actually ordered the item, paid for the item, and ordered it from the correct store. I then showed my various emails that said I paid, that it was ready for pickup, and that the store was for Annie's hallmark. She still was acting like it wasn't her problem and was kind of like oh well. Don't know what to tell you. The original clerk then was like just give one off the shelf, since she already paid and stuff. The clerk now helping me for even more rude and made comments like now she'll need to contact Corporate and hopefully she'll figure it out. I can see why they couldn't find my order. It was a mess behind the counter, with things piled up. I'm assuming my order was maybe mixed in that mess. I don't think I'll be returning to this store. The employees are rude.
