Expert Reviews of Magpie

Citysearch | The Brady kids and the Partridge Family would fight over this vintage boutique's groovy duds.

I love Magpie!

Magpie is the one vintage/thrift store I can count on for a consistently amazing selection of clothing. They are inexpensive but the selection is amazing... you do not have to leaf through many items to find a...

Response to Deplorable

I am the 'Greek' girl listed under the 'Deplorable' review. I am not Greek, but thanks for the assumption. I'd love to respond to the comments made. I think most people are able to read the store's hours, as...

Yelp.com Review - by Sheila Y.

4.0 of 5 stars. Not the largest vintage collection, but lots of shoes, sunglasses and funky jewelry. I ended up leaving with a 50's plaid dress, bright green 80's short sleeve knitted top, and mirrored aviator…

Deplorable

I attempted to stop by several times in a course of a month, they were always closed. The store window displays had changed several times so I knew they had to be eventually open for business or why would they...

Oh la la

I really dig this cute little shop, it's been around for awhile for a good reason. The cloths are always clean and well kept. My only complaint is that some of the boutique type fasions that people bring in...

Yelp.com Review - by Kelly M.

4.0 of 5 stars. Within close reach to other hip hotspots downtown (Jackpot! Powell's! Half and Half! Ace Hotel!), Magpie is a reliable centrally-located spot to pick up vintage clothes. While they charge prices that…

Yelp.com Review - by Brandy S.

4.0 of 5 stars. Magpie is the perfect vintage clothing store because it also sells new clothes by independent designers, many of whom are local. They have great jewelery, a good selection of shoes and hats - if only…

Best vintage in downtown

I've been to Magpie a few times and have always been impressed. They take great pains to organize and present clothing and apparel. All clothes are in excellent shape and are sold at decent prices. Employees...
