Butler Antiques

Incredible experience. The review with the owner telling a child to be careful repeatedly.... is odd to me. The owners of the store were SO sweet to myself and my very chaotic 7 year old. He even engaged him in conversation and told cool stories. I left with a locket, and two bundles of letters written in the early 1940s. Will definitely return!

The owners @ this antique store are wonderful! The location has a variety of displays, and a large selection to choose from. Many rooms, and reasonably priced. It is by far our favorite location to shop. We are never disappointed.

A lot of memorabilia, and it felt like entering a museum. It was okay, but not really my thing.

To start, I must be fair to the woman who owns the shop; she was kind and polite. Also, the architecture of the building is a beautiful sight. However, I will not return. I took my daughter (8) on a day antiquing. We do this often and she is more careful with things than most adults. Today was our first time in this shop. As soon as we walked in, the man who owns the building came out of a back room to greet us. We chatted about the architecture of the building and it's history a bit before he noticed my daughter gently touching a piece and asked her to be careful. That's fair. He wondered over to the counter and I reiterated to her our need to be careful (out of respect for him, not because she needed to hear it). We continued walking around and looking at various objects. The entire time, the man stared at my daughter. She touched another piece to show it to me and he immediately told her to "be careful" again several times. (Anyone who has kids knows this is the fastest way to make them panic and drop things.). She carefully set it down as he spit out "we have rules!"Note: nowhere in the store did he have a sign asking persons not to touch nor did he ever say not to touch. "Be careful" and "don't touch" are 2 very different things. So I asked him, "do you not want people to touch things they are thinking to buy? She's careful, has never broken anything, and I'd purchase anything that were to break."Long story short, he doesn't like or respect kids; childism is strong with this one. If your kid and you don't automatically understand that this is a museum not a store, don't enter. If you do dare to enter, with or without a child, remember "be careful" is code for "don't touch or I'll yell at you".

Took a day trip from home in Denton to OKC treasure hunting and stopped in as many places as possible along the way. Happened into the Historic Hotel Love that has become Butler Antiques! Amazing building, very unique layout for showcasing products, great products, and greater prices! The owners were fantastic and made you feel very much like friends as opposed to customers! Definitely will put this place on our favorites list and will definitely return!
