Mission Galleria

An iconic space in the heart of downtown. The mother-load for all things vintage. Even if you're not looking for a specific item it's a fun place to explore all three levels. Records, clothing, jewelry, books, vintage toys and memorabilia. Lots of nicknacks and thingamabobs around every inch of space. Tight turns with little nooks and cranny's of things you'd find in your closet when you were eight years old. Creaking floors, old library scent, giant chairs and yes Christmas decorations. If you're a collector you may be fan kicking your way through. Service is helpful and kind. Know your prices and you may strike gold. It's attached to Molinos coffee shop. You can walk right through the back entrance and take in the downtown ambiance while enjoying a cup of joyful Joe! :D

What can I say? There was most definitely not enough time to see all the things, BUT I came away with some goodies! This is FOUR VERY FULL FLOORS of everything you can possibly imagine...things you want, things you need, things you didn't know you need, and things to remind you of times past! Talk about a walk down memory lane! Definitely, there is a tremendous variety of "stuff and things" ranging from heirloom blankets, jewelry (fine and costume), clothing, sports and other memorabilia (who remembers kewpie dolls? - anyone? or vintage Christmas ornaments that come in the cardboard box? ), designer purses, and houseware items. Areas are "coded" to indicate who the vendor is, as it appears items are for sale on consignment with proceeds going to the donor of the item(s). This aspect is what I believe makes the checkout process take a bit of time -- so be patient when you're ready for purchase as the cashiers manually enter the information on the tags in order to give folks their due. I was able to see most of two floors and skim the others. I left with some fun finds: a Maryland "You are Here" series Starbucks mug (I really did visit!), two bracelets for my daughter - not thrifted, and some horror kitsch for my son. All happy campers. This place is definitely worth the trip from the SGV. Come prepared to oogle everything and maybe spend some coin!

Something for everybody, something for all ages. A must place to visit, browse, perhaps buy something for friends, a family member or yourself. Largest concentration of antiques and curios I have seen. We spent a good 1.5 hours of looking and exploring the Galleria. Inexpensive jewelry, vinly records, clothes, books, antique furniture, etc, etc. Check out my photos to add more flavor to my review. A very intriguing place.

The Mission Galleria is like an amusement park for those of us that enjoy vintage items from, clothing to furniture to all sorts of treasures. Great selection and their prices are fair. The Mission Galleria has four floors, it's a busy location and somewhat understaffed, if you're interested in an item behind a locked curio, you have to go back to the cashier area (front door) to get some assistance. Other than that, a nice place to go treasure hunting.

I love to come here with my friends every few weeks to see what's new, and the staff are very friendly. They some very unique items that would can't find anywhere else, my favorite are the interesting lamps you can find on the bottom and 3rd floor, and for the most part pricing is very reasonable. Coming here is also a good way to support local businesses!

Four stories of antiques and collectibles. OMG! So much stuff. Unbelievable. It's like people just emptied out their entire houses and it's now all being sold in one place. You really have to see it to believe it. The fourth floor holds most of the large furniture and kitchen glassware, as organized as you can get with so much stuff. There's also a huge vintage clothing store, which is a store within a store.

Looking for hidden gems? This is the place. You'll find a wide assortment of things for your home, shop, or anywhere in between.

Love this store it's definitely a place you can spend all day in . There is everything for everyone there . I love the Y2K clothing there

got a cute blouse from here but when I got home noticed it had a shein tag :/ forsure wasn't bought for a shein price Love this store still tho

Was looking at some photographs, and one of the employees (bulky looking dude with glasses I believe), came, took the photographs and placed them back on the counter and sarcastically said "appreciate you for looking" after I had informed him that I was looking at each photograph. Then I'm responding to a text message, and he decided to sit and a nearby booth station and just watch me. I look around and I see him pointing his phone at me and the camera snap a photo. I was in disbelief and when I decided to not let it affect my cool, he decides to follow me but act like he wasn't. Used to come here all the time as a vintage collector. Never again.
