Some good stuff, but more overpriced junk store finds. Curt clerk(or owner) promptly refused to negotiate, which is fine even though one of my items wasn’t worth the $ 5 I tried to bargain, so I passed on it. All typical, everyday Portland antique shopping, considering they’re close-in(ish), with high rents and all, but there’s more. Curt clerk then refused to allow me to sample a record even after I had already made a $ 20 purchase reasoning that another worker«already had something on.» Maybe I’d give them three stars, but not since they’re undeserving of their current five stars.

We came in looking for an antique or vintage single blade double edge razor. Found one in superb condition! Even got to negotiate the cost a bit. thanks for having what I was looking for!

Awesome place and awesome owner! Maureen was very helpful and had a very good mix of things at the shop, one could spend all day there and not get to see everything. Do not believe the bad reviews!

I am in love with this shop! The owner, Mo, has a thirst for finding out the stories behind her finds. It’s inspiring when someone can unabashedly share their passion with the world through the work they do and this is why I have outfitted my living space, bookshelf, kitchen and closet with what I find in her shop. There are not a lot of things that sit around on her shelves for years, her inventory is constantly changing and it really makes the shop feel like a living entity. This combined with the stories she picks up and relays truly make it feel like a new adventure each time I have a minute to check in and explore. I go to Kenton Antiques to treat myself to good music, interesting facts, pieces of history, one of a kind gems, furniture that won’t fall apart, craft ideas, unique gifts and because I trust that Mo’s got a good eye and I can’t be going to estate sales myself all the time.

Perhaps this is a great place if you are into country antiques or thrift store quality furniture. Not much here for a mid-century modern girl. Some quirky fun odds and ends and lots of books. No good vintage clothes, hats or jewelry either. I do majority of my shopping in used stores of all kinds but will have to pass on this one. Too bad for me since it’s on the way to my library.

I am not a fan of antique stores, I do like thrift shops. This place can only be described one way. An alien mothership abducts me, reads my mind, possibly a probe, I wake up knowing jack about this. I walk into a store in Kenton and everything I ever wanted to buy as a kid is here, and it’s in the box, and it’s priced right. Pee-wee’s playhouse trading cards?! Snoopy snowcone machine?! They even have those mall games from the 80s with fake credit cards. It’s memory lane… or the matrix, either way, I like it.

This is by far the coolest store I have been to since I moved to Portland. Everywhere I looked, there was cool stuff. Every time I turned around, I found a new room full of the most random(but sweet!) items. Even the dresser drawers are filled with cool things! They have something that will suit anyone’s tastes… everything from comic books, to classy pieces of art and antique furniture. You could spend hours in this store and not even realize it. It is a true gem and worth a visit.

Super cool treasures everywhere, and completely reasonable pricing. An antique store for everyone’s price range.

This is a cool little antique store that has a lot of neat stuff. I used to go in there for stuff for my dad because he collects Budweiser beer steins. It’s has tons of old stuff, and tons of stuff I have never seen before. I can’t think of a way to write much more than, go see this store! It’ll be worth it.
