Restoration Project Nonprofit Program & Thrift Store - Belmont, Massachusetts

This was a great place to find a lot of wonderful household items at great prices. I had a great time shopping for small, decorative items like the plates I put under my plants on my patio. They add some lovely interest and color! They also sell clothes, Jewelry, shoes, furniture, small kitchen appliances and pictures. The organization is a charitable foundation and donated items - especially furniture- are restored and put out for resale.

Cute little store, many items were very cheap. Even large items like dressers and chairs!

Lots of super interesting things. The clothes do move very slowly but if you’re not going frequently it’s fine. The prices (at least for casual clothing and jewelry) are great.

I would say the goods here are a fair mix, with some vintage pieces. Nice crystal chandeliers. I feel like the customer service could improve. The owner follows people around the store giving evil eyes, assuming you're stealing. It's a cute shop and right down the street but the last three times I have gone in I was treated like I was less than. Will not be back.

This place would be great if they moved merchandise more quickly by pricing things more reasonably. It's constantly over-packed, you feel claustrophobic inside. They price things like a boutique antique store, but it's mostly your normal thrift store fair -- so stuff just sits. It used to be a jewel of a thrift store, with great prices and therefore quickly-moving merchandise, where you really could find great second-hand items at good second-hand prices. Bring back the old days!

Come for the treasures, stay for the ambience!

Since I stumbled upon this quirky, fun, wonderful house of treasures, I have visited often. I never leave without a fab find and a smile on my face. The music, playing on an old turntable, is always sublime, and you can’t help but hum along and smile. The staff members are lovely, too: Carolyn in the back and Bob out front greet you like old friends. I can’t count the times Bob has stayed past closing time if people are still in the shop browsing, as we were today, and is just as happy as his customers are when they find something fun. Even after closing, when I was browsing outside, he and Carolyn were still chatty and cheerful. It really is a great place to find just about anything you are looking for, and Bob makes it even more fun. Go and visit—you won’t be disappointed!

This place is simply bizarre. I waited 10 min for the store to open because no one was there ( I get it, things happen). But when the owner walked up, he was rather unfriendly. I had a question about a price of a very small table that I needed for an art project. It barely stood up, but it was the rustic look I needed. He walked right passed me with his head down, went all the way to the back and said nothing. I almost didn’t want to bother him! While I was waiting to get his attention, I noticed the pricing was rather high for some stuff that looked junky. I finally got his attention ( he seemed bothered), we went outside, I showed him the tiny table, I asked how much. The price he mumbled trying to come up with a price and he said $25!!!!! I was about to ask if he could go lower and he just walked away. No wonder nothing moves in there! Won’t be back.
