3 years agoFirstly for the excellent vintage clothes they have in the mix -- Secondly the stray cat help I have received - finding MoMA cat and her babies forever homes instead of dumped off at the SPCA, which is looking quite dead these days on the outside. Whereas - This little shop is alive and buzzing - with a cute little cat on the bench to greet you - that was a random day I walked in to introduce myself and my cat problem - they had a cute little kitten in a cage chillin quite happily watching the humans - Nice touch I thought. My cats say hi -- photos for ya

5 years agoI travelled 30 minutes to buy some items here to find the staff had decided to close 10 minutes early !! The door was locked and lo and behold they were in there clearing the till. If they don't want to work until closing time perhaps they should leave and let someone more honest do the job.

5 years agoBest op shop I’ve come across from the Northland to Taranaki! The best prices and the friendliest workers, not to mention there is a great selection. From clothes to kitchen supplies to books, they are well stocked.
