There is a large mural on the outside wall by Eddie Macias. A local artist whose artwork you will find all throughout the city! There are also alien and UFO statues you can take pictures with on the roof and right outside the building. Cassie was a gem and made us visitors feel welcome and gave us great tips about the city and was SUCH a good representative for the store and Roswell. Thank you so much Cassie for the great experience! The shirt designs and tie dyes as well as the magnets behind the register you can ONLY find at this shop. If you are interested in unique gifts I recommend asking what else can only be found at this shop!

I believe they even offered us free coffee and they are dog friendly so we were also greeted by some adorable pups! I love that and I especially love any space that makes our dog feel welcome. The vibe and aesthetic are relaxed and luxurious and it's immediately apparent that they're selling very good quality merchandise. I spent a lot of time looking at their custom shirts and sweaters and my husband spent a lot of time looking at their beef jerky. They have a local line called abduction jerky that had an amazing variety of flavors. On our first visit we were still checking out the downtown area so we grabbed some snacks and drinks and headed out but after touring the town a bit more and realizing what a gem this store actually is, we headed back before we ended our day so that we could pick up some more items. How often do you find a shop with ONLY 5 star reviews? This place is a gem. It really feels like they have something for everyone. If you're exploring the area and you're looking for a shop that's a bit more thoughtful, welcoming and well done, this is the place.

The most hilarious place to visit in a 200 mile radius~!!!!…read more I love it here. The people and the exhibit are weird. It's a place to sell junk and trinkets. It's not a museum or research center. Just an old fashioned weirdo trying to make a living based off of people's fantasies. This should be coined Roswell's finest~! Access/Roads/Parking: A Private lot. Plenty spaces near the main intersection. The liquor store look a like is puny so pay attentions. Distance: F Far from life. LA is almost 1000 miles away. Costs: A Free. The funky exhibit is per donation basis. Conclusion: Just visit if you are around. Don't make it a point to visit Roswell because of this spot though. Other Attractions in New Mexico minus Santa Fe/ABQ: -White Sands Missle Base (Alamogordo) -International UFO Museum (Roswell) -NM Space Hall of Fame (Alamogordo) -Carlsbad Caves (Carlsbad) -DT Lincoln (Lincoln) -Very Large Array (Socorro) -Fort Sumner (Fort Sumner) -Billy the Kid Museum (Fort Sumner)

After visiting the UFO International Museum & Research Center, my husband and I, along with our little girl dog (yep leashed dogs are allowed inside), decided to stop by here to purchase some souvenirs. When we came in, we were greeted by the friendly employee behind the counter. Inside, you can find many funny alien shirts that sell for about $20 (prior to tax) a piece, keychains, cups, hats, sweaters, etc. All things you would expect that is mostly alien themed. I ended up purchasing a cute small little keychain that has a few alien charms on it to remind me of my fun visit to Roswell. It was nice to look at some of the funny shirts and all the other random alien things here. I am glad we stopped in.

You can take photos, but no real interactive aspect to it (which is what I remembered from it from long ago). It is fine, but it is a little boring. It is definitely for tourists of little ones. It is fun-ish, but not much to actually do but check out staged displays.

Not counting our hotel , or shopping or eating , this was the activity we spent the most money on…read morein our time in Roswell, and it was by far the least worth it. I was really taken aback because of all the good Yelp reviews. I don't know if I am missing something or I came on a bad day but this is definitely not worth it in my opinion, especially when there are so many other fun things to do close by. When you enter The Alien Zone there is a tiny gift shop in the front and the girl behind the counter was watching a movie on her laptop. We asked for two tickets and paid $17.32. She pointed to the curtain and said "You're fine to go back and check it out. You can touch all of the props and take pictures." Once we walked through the curtain, I thought we were getting pranked. There was a wall full of toys like aliens and rats and spiders but they are all behind netting that has been zip tied together, so you can't touch any of it. Then you see a few displays with aliens that look like they are left over from some old escape room or something. Underwhelming is an understatement. We figured since we had already paid, we might as well try to have some fun, but it is so dark in the room that It's difficult to get a good photo. There are only two rooms and once we got into the second room it got really really warm. At the very end they have a lab coat that you can put on for photo ops I guess but we were literally sweating, so we just left. If you are reading reviews to decide which things are worth doing and which things are not, definitely put this on your not list. The UFO spacewalk is just a block or two away, it's less expensive, and way more fun. There are also plenty of alien photo ops all around the city, including the visitor center, that don't cost a penny.

We decided to wander in to see what they had & we are glad we stopped by. It was a lot of fun looking at each of the booths that were set up while trying to find little treasures to take home. There is a good mixture of booths here, some have actual vintage products, some have handmade products and others just have bulk type nerd products like loungefly that they are reselling. The store itself seems pretty well organized & clean. Prices vary from booth to booth as every booth is run by someone different. Some booths have some great finds and great prices and others seemed a bit too high. We found a few neat things we decided to pick up!

As an adult, it's just a novelty experience because you're in Roswell. The Spacewalk is under black lights which is great with all the displays- both stationary and some moving.

Lol This is just another fun, artsy place to stop through and get into the spirit of the aliens. For me, it's a one time stop and glad I visited!
