    Real deal vintage clothes up in here. We're talking the Greg Brady fringed vests and polyester…read moreshirts from the 1970s. Fur coats and porkpie hats from a time when fur coats and porkpie hats were worn in earnest and not ironically. I visited Cherry Canary around Halloween season, and there were a lot of people stopping by to look for pieces for their costumes. I can see why -- much of their clothing would make excellent costumes. But I don't see why you couldn't wear a wool sailor suit any other time of the year. You just need some chutzpah. Like a good vintage store, the clothing racks are jam-packed with clothes, so it's a little overwhelming to go through everything. But that's a good thing -- it just means they have a lot of stuff and a big selection. Everything is displayed tastefully, and they have a section for men's clothes and one for women's. They have little dressing rooms for you to try on the clothes, too, but be aware that the lighting in the dressing rooms is very dim. They also have a little corner for knickknacks and accoutrements, such as vintage luggage, glassware and planters.

    LOVE this store! I'm from a spot that doesn't have much in the way of vintage clothing and was so…read moreexcited to see this place on my Yelp recommendations while I was out in Bloomington. First off, the shop owner here is SO nice and helpful. I mentioned the decade I was shopping for and she pulled quite a few lovely pieces down for me. The merchandise here is in great shape and I feel like I bought so many treasures while I was there. I feel like this shop has something for everyone here. I scored some 1950s dresses, and 1940s dress, and even a 1930s peignoir. The prices vary, with older items usually being priced higher. However, I think the items are worth the price because they are basically one-of-a-kind at this point and are in solid shape.

    We went to see about a 1960s German China set that was purchased by my mom when stationed in…read moreGermany. Bone white with a simple platinum ring, complete settings and all the extras for setting a great looking special table. This was the perfect spot to display and sell our tableware. . The variety and quality of the other items (collectible posters, art, home decor, even pet clothes) are superb. We enjoyed visiting with nice lady working there very much. We will go back next trip to the next door eating location. Thanks

    Last year on a cold winter day we stumbled on this place while eating at Liter House. It is a…read morelittle kept secret... a true gem! We now check it out on a regular basis and always find some unique items. Prices are excellent, especially when compared to other vintage shops. The true treasure of the sho are the people that run it. They are so delightful and always make you feel welcome. Many times they have helped add to a collection by offering suggestions and remembering us when we came in. Though we don't always buy something we always learn something. Their knowledge and helpfulness is fantastic. I appreciate all the unique serving pieces and kitchen things available. My husband loves the record collection. Give this place a try... Parking can be utilized on either side of the building. You will have to look for it the first time but it is easy if you look for the grey building next to Liter House.
