    The owner Carlos is great. He was incredibly helpful, as was Ellen. I love coming in vintage underground but usually only look around but I've had my eye on a cameo for a while and Carlos ended up showing me his back collection so I ended up purchasing a beautiful brooch/necklace piece! Absolutely will be back

    Fun camera selection

    It's funky dunky (in a good way) at Vintage Underground and situated right in the middle of all things hip and cool. Out and about with my kiddo after our stop at Devil Dogs, he wanted to check out some of the vintage shops in the neighborhood. To be honest, we were looking for cool clothing and t-shirts, etc., so we didn't spend much time in this shop, but we did have a great time looking around. This is where you go for kitschy accessories: jewelry, hats, and more. My son, who is obsessed with old cameras, spent some time checking out their vintage camera selection. Small but a nice variety (see my pics). Take note, this is not a huge store, and it's pretty compact with little room to move around...because lots of cool stuff! Contrary to what others have said about customer service, we found everyone to be overly friendly and helpful. They helped us navigate our way through the store, especially since it was our very first time. Lots of other cool shops in the area within walking distance. Go check it out!

    My experience here was formidable. Me and my girlfriend came here today to check out what this place had to offer since we checked out the thrift store across the street. They have great stuff here don't get me wrong but my issue that made me uncomfortable being here was that the owner (I believe) was yelling at this woman who was the cashier loudly while we're just trying to shop with customers inside it . The owner sounded like he was having alot of anger with his job and other issues. We left the store just because we didn't want to be a part of that which ultimately killed our shopping experience.

    Loved this place. If your looking for vintage stuff this is the place to be. The staff was really nice and had very good Covid-19 protocol.

    Silver jewelry collection

    They have a lot of good jewelry/accessories however, like the other reviews mention, the owner is slightly crazy. He's so rude to employees and talks down on them right in front of his customers. Also, while they have a decent collection of jewelry, it's very overpriced. Anyways, I left shortly before I could even buy the things I had my eyes on because he made me feel so uncomfortable with the way he was speaking to/treating other customers.

    I had a very quick, easy, and fair selling experience with the owner Carlos.

    In honor of women's history month, I would like to shine the spot light on this very cool shop in…read morethe Pilsen neighborhood. Also, I would like to thank all of the people that have come out to support businesses in this area that were hit hard by the current political climate in Washington D.C. At the height of violence in our streets I tried to do my best by supporting some of these businesses. During this phase 18th street looked like a ghost town on a Saturday. Normally on a Saturday in this neighborhood has people teeming everywhere and the smell of an asado in the air (Yum). Having time off and having an asado is the perfect way to relax and spend time with your family. Plus, who doesn't like the smell of an asado? Well during this time period I found this shop that I thought had some really cool and unique stuff. Also, you may notice that they have a fair amount of stuff with the famous Hulu's The Bear line, "Yes Chef, No Chef" on it. If you are a fan of the show like I am, then, the interior will look familiar to you because it was in a seen on the show (I think it was season 3). I immediately recognized the store and thought to myself "cool" and great choice. Anyhow, if you find yourself in the area, pop in and check it out. They are very selective as to which artists around the country they want to buy from and in turn sell their products. Maybe you will find that one unique thing that you have been looking for that you didn't realize you need. I mean, you never know unless you check it out. My fellow Chicagoans, please go out and support your local small shops!

My mom and I could've spent the whole day there, the staff was welcoming and the store offered the most cutest items that were reasonably priced. The selection of things was great, from bookmarks, clothes, to mugs anything and everything you'd want for a souvenir.
