Bridge House Thrift Store

Such nice people working here for a great cause, helping people in recovery from substances or just a rough life. Clean tidy facility with items attractively displayed. Lots of GREAT women's clothes and shoes. A ton of lamps, for some reason. I bought one! Cookware, kitchen supplies, knick knacks, odds and ends, men's clothing. Everything half off. If you are doing a closet or kitchen purge, please consider donating to Bridge House.

So cute inside! I decided to take my donations here instead of Goodwill for the first time and was pleasantly surprised at the effort put into the store's layout and selections. Staff is pretty friendly too.

its close, convenient, and they take everything..i like clearing out clutter and down-sizing, and feeling good about putting recycleables to good use.

This NEW location of Bridge House Thrift Store on Earhart is replacing the OLD Thrift Store on Camp St., so disregard most of the reviews that were written before 2017. That was the previous location, and incarnation.This location is super neat, has lots of furniture, a nice selection of household items, plenty of framed pieces, clothes, shoes and books. They are always having a sale on something. On my last visit I picked up a barely worn pair of basic flat shoes for $1! There is always a selection of books for only $1! They also had Mardi Gras throws for sale, in case you are riding in a parade. Many, many nice things in every category.It is my new favorite place to bring my donations as I feel much better about helping local folks in recovery than I do about 'donating' to the Goodwill Corporate complex.

This is a great place to support. They have a good deal of furniture, clothing, and housewares. It seemed like half the store was on an amazing sale the day I visited. I didn't get anything that day, but I didn't have enough time to really look. I'll definitely be back. Not as large as the salvation army on Jefferson, but they still had great, quality choices.

Bridge & Grace House provide amazing services to the City of New Orleans.Donation services span from household items to automobiles and RVs.Changing lives & making New Orleans a better place.

I've been here twice and it seems like a great thrift store to find boots as I found a cute selection both times. The first time I left without a pair I liked and went back hoping they would be there but of course where gone but I did find another and didn't make the mistake again. They have a section to grab last chance items at $1. I will say the prices are high so once you take the 50% off that I received both days I went it brings the price closer to a thrift store bargain. I wonder if certain items are always 50% off as I see a slash through the prices of clothing and other items besides furniture I believe. Maybe the pricing is a way to make the customer feel they are getting a discount while making sure they make enough to support the cause? You must spend $5 to use your credit card or donate the rest to get to the $5 charge. I feel it's supportive for the community Grace House serves so I will continue to buy from there. Plus I want more boots.

Very friendly staff. I can always find something I love there. The money also go directly to Bridge house without middle men. This is why more people donate there.

I went a couple of weeks ago to purchase some winter clothes, after Goodwill (with a shop near my place) had closed all its fitting rooms. The website had indicated that this shop has fitting rooms. I found it to be in a very non-pedestrian friendly location near a highway bridge. When I entered, I saw a very small selection of clothes, in comparison to Goodwill and the main Salvation Army shop on Jefferson Highway - a lot better for furnishings and home items. I saw some winter shawls I was interested in, but they were not even marked with any price! I found some clothes I wanted to try on, despite the fact that the clothes did not seem labelled with any sizes, not even Small, Medium, or Large. and the prices seemed much higher than those at the Jefferson Highway Salvation Army shop or at Goodwill...on par with the Magazine Street shops. However, when I went to the back of the store, I found out that, after all, there was no fitting room! As a 51-year-old lady with a big backside and chest, I can't buy clothes without trying them on! So I put the clothes on the front shelf and started to leave the shop in anger. An employee in front asked me what was wrong, and I told him that the website had said there was a fitting room, but there was none. He then told me that I could try on the clothes in the employee restroom! I was able to do that and found a couple of items I could use. When I went to the cash register to pay for them, the lady was staring at her phone for 5 minutes while taking no notice of me standing there! At least they did give me a special 50% January discount on the clothes. But it was confusing that the prices I was charged were not what were on the labels at all! So, anyway, I am never coming back to this place. I commend that one employee for being helpful. Better to go to Goodwill, which is much better managed and now offers the option to return clothes that don't fit within 3 days, or to the main Salvation Army shop on Jefferson Highway (get there by 4 pm if you want time to fit on clothes!), or to Buffalo Exchange on Magazine St.

I have supported this store for the past 3 years so it's tough to only give it 3 stars. I lost my home in Hurricane Michael and relocated to New Orleans. I replaced so much by supporting Bridge House. I felt it was such a great way to give back while for me being able to restart. I've sent so many incoming college students to help them give back while being able to find affordable items to set up apartments. The last couple of times I've been in there I've been shocked at the prices!!! These are used items that are priced way over their value even when you take the 50% off!! Glassware for $4.00 who buys a plain glass for that price? Used lamps for 79.00, you can buy lamps at full price in Walmart for 15-20.00!! I just don't understand the price gouging being done. I'll continue to donate because I feel its a good cause but you are far from a Thrift Store anymore.
