    The jewelry corner and the vintage/retro room (that also has discount shoes).
    Maxwell A.

    As soon as I moved into the Central District a month and a half ago, my new housemates encouraged me to check out Two Big Blondes not far away, and they were correct. This consignment store distinguishes itself from your average trendy resale boutique in Seattle in a number of ways: 1. The sizes. Two Big Blondes carries clothing in size 14 and up. The "Big" in the name is not whimsy or false advertising; the Blondes are dedicated to making sure people whose size shuts them out of glamorous attire in most places have a source of beautiful things. The shoes are also size 8 and up, which is a happy thing for those of us (male, female, or anything in between) who do not have dainty feet but still wish to wear gorgeous shoes. On the off chance a customer does have a slim build and small feet, there are still some wonderful accessories and jewelry pieces available for browsing. 2. The selection. Especially given the particular sizes they carry, Two Big Blondes does a remarkable job of curating a wonderful array of interesting, unusual, and beautiful clothing. 3. The quality of service. Everyone employed at the Blondes carries with them an air of comfort and amiability, as if they know they are working at a good independent business that treats both employees and customers well (my conclusion: they are in fact doing this). They engage with customers respectfully and helpfully, being neither uselessly aloof nor excessively attentive. 4. The reasonable prices. Two Big Blondes is not by nature a discount or thrift shop, but I have frequently found quality items (from jewelry to bags to jackets) here for shockingly affordable prices, both on and off the sales and clearance racks. 5. The tagging system: this store has an employee dedicated to making sure all items for sale are tagged with detailed, accurate, useful information far above and beyond what I have seen any other store in this town provide. But above and beyond all these reasons to recommend Two Big Blondes, I offer you another one: 6. This store is deeply engaged with the community. It has been here in the Central District for some 25 years, and everyone loves it for a reason. In addition to general consignment items, the Blondes sell products by local artists and craftspeople while making available information about these independent artisans near their products. They also regularly offer free supplies such as a variety of quality coat hangers, and at times they host coat and clothing drives for those in need. Two Big Blondes is a rare thing in our modern brutally capitalist society: a source of both beautiful, fairly-priced products and a kindly sense of community.

    Simply the best 2nd hand store in the city (if you're a healthy sized woman)... Quite possibly the best in the entire country!

    This review is focused primarily on the Exhibit Coffee shop within this larger business…read more The shop is small but mighty. First, they have the best weekend hours in the area. I desperately needed a fresh coffee in the late afternoon on a Sunday and this was the only place open. Little did I know how lucky I was! They use Fulcrum coffee so you know it's legit. The customer service was amazing and ridiculously friendly. The barista really seemed to enjoy the work they were doing... more than just making coffee and punching the clock. The flavor was bold and smooth. The barista even proactively place one single ice cube in my drink to make it easier to sip from the onset. High quality service and keen attention to detail, indeed. Check it out! Prices are very fair and the setting is incredibly unique. The service will provide an excellent experience and then you can stay to browse the museum treasures for a while. Enjoy!

    Didn't know what I would expect but this exceeds every of my expectations!…read more If I were to explain this, this is a cafe/thrift/artisanal art store/creative hangout typa place! And THIS IS MY KIND OF PLACE this feels like Monica's apartment on Friends. Pop of colors here and there, truly a work of art every corner I turned. I mean, the dog's having a nicer Sunday than most of mine. Definitely a true gem of Pioneer Square.

    •$$

    Seattle Chinatown doesn't have nearly as many non-food shops as it once did. (And there were never…read moremany anyway.) Sun May is one of those tchotchkes, knick-knacks, cutesy, maybe useful, and antique places that words can hardly describe. It is very small but well-stocked nonetheless. Connie is the proprietor who is cheerful to all who enters; her family has kept this shop going for generations. Even though she is open for only two(?) days a week, shoppers just know to come visit. It's almost legendary. Her regular visitors sit on the stool shooting the breeze with her while the rest of us trip on that same stool when it is vacant. It is a habitual thing that we just know will happen. The paper cranes outside and inside commemorate Donnie Chin, whose murder is not yet solved. Though I am not a regular shopper, it is always a pleasure to see what I can discover there. Being the start of lunar new year, Connie had horse themed cute items on hand. We selected a colorful horse and a ceramic ram for next year. Prices are reasonable. Come, shop, or just say a hello, Connie will welcome you.

    Used to visit this place when Donny was alive. I used to think of it as a vintage Daiso that sold…read moreall kinds of interested vintage knickknacks. I got the cheapest Chinese and Thai paper umbrellas there. Sure, it was cluttered and dusty, but that was the charm of the place.
