Antiques Center at the People's Store

One of the biggest vintage stores I’ve ever been to. Everyone will find something for themselves. I have to say though, the prices are very high and unreasonable for the most of the items. Like, why is a scarf would cost $50, or a jacket $200?? I’d happily buy a new item for the same price if not less.

Nice stuff. Nice people. But not the most professional at the reception counter. Super long line waiting to check out with 3 staff members at the counter. One spent over 20 minutes handling a customer's purchase while casually chatting with her the entire time. In the meantime, another staff member were casually looking for a gift box the customer requested and then wrapped the item super carefully (great) throughout the 20 minutes. The line was getting longer during this time. The other staff member randomly started a chat with another customer in the middle of the line and decided to handle his checkout before everyone else in front of him. All of this happened on an extremely busy holiday Saturday.

Great antique center with many floors of items. Clean, organized and fairly priced items. There's something here for everyone.

This antique spot is fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. The prices are reasonable and the collections they have are absolutely stunning. We went in not knowing what to expect, this is definitely the place to go in lambertville for antiques(affordable and high quality) staff is really nice and accommodating. Neither of us felt pressure to buy anything, I was really happy about this decision. Making the 30 min drive was absolutely worth it.

This is a huge antiques marketplace with over 60 independent sellers within the building. There are 3-4 levels in the building. This large collection will be very overwhelming for first timers like us. We couldn't cover all of the place. Be prepared to set aside at least 2-3 hrs of your day if you're seriously looking to buy something from here.

Been walking by this place for years and never walked in. Huge mistake. This is a great spot. Huge variety of random things you didn't know yiu needed. Love that there are art studios and the artist are there to communicate their ideas. Great shop highly recommended.

A very busy place to find almost anything in antiques collectibles and kitsch.. There are small shops all over the 3 floors so you’re likely to find something you like there. It’s a very well traveled store and busy with buyers almost any time you go there! I’d say if you haven’t been there yet it’s a must see place in Lambertville village!

BUYERS BE AWARE!!! For Purchasing Antique Jewelry at People’s Store Lambertville New Jersey. You May Receive a Fake Piece at Authentic Price at Your Own Risk! This is a store renting footage square space to each individual seller. According to the store, your purchasing result falls under each seller’s responsibility without getting the store involved. Just think about it is a flea market under a shared roof with a central register, that’s about it. What the seller marks on the price tag, whether it is an authentic or fake, it would be your own responsibility to identify. I have purchased a vintage coral necklace marked on the price tag from People’s Store Lambertville at USD 300 a few years ago. Only after a few years (I have only worn it two times), and recently the outside paint had fallen off and revealed the inner plastic material. I went back to the store with original receipt for a reasonable refund, they said they are totally not responsible for 1) how do they know if this piece was purchased from their store, and argued that I should have taken a picture of the necklace and receipt together at time of purchase, 2) it has passed the returning period…. I do not find these arguments valid, because the store should have a record of what they have sold, and even if I have taken the picture, they can also easily say that the piece was not the original piece, so what is the point of taking a photo? Furthermore, the returning policy applies to real value product. By marking authentic description and authentic price on a fake jewelry violates buyer’s interest starting Day One. It does not change the fact that People’s Store is selling fake antiques. It was very nice for the store manager, Evelyn Gordon to finally give me the individual seller’s contact information, and I have chased half of the money back, but still leaving the other half on my account for a punishment that I should not deserve to receive on this shopping experience. People’s Store did not participate to compensate a penny as they claim they are not responsible for the seller’s action even through the product is sold from their store. A lesson learned! I will never shop at People’s Store ever again!

There is so much to see at this Antique Center! There are a TON of antique shops in Lambertville, and this is probably the best one. Three full floors, completely stocked with different stalls of curated, vintage and antique goods. From the outside, you'd never know how big the space is. Like any antiques store, I'm sure it can be hit or miss. They probably have new things arriving every day. Some of the stalls were very reasonably priced, while others were a bit expensive. They had a lot of affordable wall art and paintings which was fun to see. There is really something for everyone to see here. We spent about 1.5 hours, we could've spent more if we really took our time. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town. It's also in a perfect location to browse other little shops and boutiques!

We have been here a couple of times and if you like to browse through Antiques, you will find plenty in Lambertville, Pennsylvania. This place has rows and rows of different things, on different floors, it'll keep you busy for a couple of hours depending on what you might find. We fell in love with an Apothecary cabinet. I know our first visit here we literally browsed and couldn't decide what to get but knew we would be back soon. Then coming back again, we loved this piece and knew we wanted to have it. Prices are all listed. If you look through display cases you might need to ask for assistance if you can't find the price. There is an upstairs and a lower level to wander more. Location is set down a busy, quaint main street. Friendly staff, various prices listed depending on what you want. Staff packed this item well and carefully made sure it was intact before wrapping it up. It was heavy, but we love it. I can't wait to be back again and browse through "one man's garbage is another's treasure."

It can be hit or miss but usually more hits . I have found some truly remarkable big and smalls here . The staff is super helpful. This is the type of place you need to come with low expectations and be pleasantly surprised . I wish I knew how often the vendors switched out merchandise but I guess that's the mystery of life Regardless, I always find something here . Kudos to management and vendors for creating a great shopping experience.

Very friendly place found Christmas gifts for the kids lots of things to look at and explore we will definitely be back

I'm always a fan of antique centers representing individual vendors ... and this is a good one. It's big, prices are by-and-large fair and there's a good mix of collectibles. The proprietors are friendly and helpful. My daughter and I were on the hunt for art, and while there was a good amount to choose from, nothing said 'take me home.' I've heard about Lambertville, not realizing it's literally walking distance from New Hope. We will indeed come back!

Such a great antique shop in Lambertville, nj. After stopping by a few antique/consignment shops in New Hope we were on the hunt for somewhere really unique and worth the hunt. I am beyond thankful to our B&B hosts for suggesting the People's Store to us! My husband and I spent a couple hours touring 3 of the 4 floors and enjoyed just taking it all in. So many beautiful pieces of art and jewelry, it's truly incredible how much is packed into this place. The owners were the kindest people and on each floor a worker greeted us and asked if they could help us with anything. I fell in love with a beautiful ring and the owners went above and beyond in showing the ring to us and offering to resize it for me. It was an incredible afternoon for us. Can't wait to explore their shop again and see what treasures we find next time.

I really enjoyed stopping by. They have a huge selection of antiques! Everything to every day finds to expensive one of a kind pieces. I definitely recommend stopping by if you're in the area. It's well worth it. It's also nestled in a fantastic little town. Plenty of sights to see and places to eat.

Cute store- countless items. Could spend hours inside

So many rooms! It has 3 floors. We spent so much time here and it was worth it. I would go here again. Hoping to see more antique shops nearby next visit!

Fun place to explore with floors of vintage and antique furniture and unique items. It's really easy to spend an entire afternoon just wondering around looking at all the wares.

I love the wide array of things they have and the salespeople are quite nice. Everyone was wearing masks. My only complaint is the outrageous pricing on some of their things. With the internet, it's easy to prices things and everything I looked at was way off: it's the curse of so many of these lovely antique shops,

Nice big space, lots of things to see. Upper floors had more items that are in my style. Everyone was nice and helpful when we tried getting a price for an item. My only negative would be that a lot of the items are very over priced. I understand things have to marked up but it kind of felt like it was just marked up way too high. Just my opinion ( and budget). Definitely a cool place to visit and see lots of beautiful interesting things. The third floor had really cool artist studios where you could see original art by the actual artist. That was a real treat.

I was pleasantly surprised with how great this antique shop was. It was MUCH larger than I expected and had plenty to look at. I am a bargain hunter so based on the high end items on the first floor I didn't expect to find much. Thankfully I kept looking and found 2 more floors filled with some more affordable things. I ended up purchasing beautiful vintage linens. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area.

This is one of my favorite places to visit in Lambertville. It contains an absolutely amazing array of things. Here is a list of examples from today: 7 foot or so tall intricately inlaid "grandfather-style" clock, Midcentury modern chandelier so unusual I never did figure out what kind of light bulbs it used or how you put them in, several closely packed shelves of vintage Christmas ornaments, an Art Deco bed from the 1920 and on the fourth floor two women creating paintings on canvas in light-filled spaces amid imaginative repurposed, recycled furniture. It was a solid 90 minutes or so of continual amusement and delight - all for the effort it took to walk in the door! Over the years I have bought any number of large and small things for my home here. It is an antiques "mall," meaning that lots of dealers have put their stuff here and take turns staffing it. When I've had questions the people working the floor have done their best to get me information and dicker a bit on the price. I'm sure I would have been able to get the contact info for the actual owner if I had really felt the need but I never have. Understand that prices vary, quality varies, inventory fluctuates but the entertainment value, and thrill of the hunt, does not!

You know, I love the People's Store, and try to stop whenever I am driving down from NY to visit my father-but today when I stopped, and waited in my car until after their posted opening time at 10, I was irritated. I went to the door in the pouring rain and found the door to be locked still when I attempted to enter. Someone inside saw me there, standing outside getting soaked, and turned away. At this point, so did I. I might not be back, either.

Marvelous attractive store filled w antique & vintage gems of all varieties. My friend purchased an antique sterling silver fish knife as a gift for her daughter-in-law. The gentleman who helped us was a silver expert & helped us navigate all of the treasures until she decided on the perfect one. I purchased a necklace w vintage citrine stones & fresh water pearls which is beautiful. I look forward to my return adventure so that I can check out the other floors filled w a variety of items that one feels we can't live without.

This is one of the most interesting antique mall shops we have ever been in. Every vendor spot was well lit, and well organized. There are many unique items. The store is large, multiple floors. The staff was very helpful. I wished I lived closer. It was a great shopping experience. Time well spent.

Holy pricey, Batman! If you are looking for an antique-mall type of place, this is not your place. Great to look at, but prices are certainly inflated. Was a bit surprised, but after seeing the cute town of Lambertville, I think it's likely par for the course. You are definitely paying for location, location, location.

One of my favorite places to find antique treasures for the home. Love the vendors and big selection. Good deals too.

My favorite shop and it's a monster. Always great fresh merchandise in every genre at fair prices. Customer and dealer friendly. Great hardworking talented dealers are always available to assist. The customer base is international at this east coast landmark. You will not be disappointed. Dozens of fine local restaurants will complete your shopping experience.

Just love the People'Store. They have three floors of great merchandise. There is always a tremendous variety of items and I never leave without finding a few buys to take home. Staff always goes out of their way to be helpful. I am sure to hit all of the floors because there seems to be hidden gems throughout.

I wanted to love this place. But that is pretty far from my feeling. I should start by saying I've been buying antiques for decades. Part of the pleasure is chatting with dealers who usually are a friendly, knowledgable bunch. You can learn lots. The piece you buy always is more special for that whole experience. Not here. First time in on Friday, the dealer for the booth was pretty helpful, but the desk staff (rotating-dealers taking turns?) was just short of rude-passing over a tape measure and ignoring me trying to return it and thanking them. I went back Saturday (again, no one ever greeted us nor did I see that with anyone else walking in ) to find a slightly more pleasant couple who did contact the dealer for price and called to pass it on to me. Took all afternoon, but not their fault. I appreciated that. But today clinched this review. We went to pick up the pieces. After the transaction and removing anything from the top and drawers we were most deliberately on our own getting them out of the building. Not that we expected anyone to carry them, but just juggling people walking through the door, in the aisles was tough. No one even offered to help with the door-except a passerby. And certainly no one said thank you, come back! Far as I can tell, these folks think they are doing you a favor letting you buy something from them. I have a new house to furnish, there are lots of nice dealers out there, so I plan to go to them and I suggest you patronize them, not People's Store. By the way, this is the first negative review I've ever written on Yelp.

I love the People's Store! Especially the Downstairs! Great selection of vintage and primitive pieces as well as antiques. I could spend all day looking thru everything. Every time I go I see new pieces. Can't wait to go back!

Wow - this is a fun, huge antique store. Didn't buy anything there (or anywhere, for that matter) but it was the best and biggest place we went into all day.

If you go all the way to the back to the rear window you will find the greatest industrial pieces at totally reasonable prices! Ask for Avery's place and they will help you find the best pieces for your home. When I was there i got great industrial wood molds and I can't wait to go go back for each room I renovate!

What a collection of fabulous antiques! Also loved the vintage clothing. On a recent visit, I saw Bebe Neuwirth in the store browsing, and the staff told me that a number of Broadway and movie stars always stop by. Definitely worth the trip to charming Lambertville. KB Hasbrouck Heights, NJ

Large antique store consisting of 4 floors. Each floor appears to be divided into sections consisting of merchandise from different dealers. This used to be my favorite store in lambertville until yesterday. On the first floor-I had an item picked out for $20. I asked if they could reduce that to take into account the item was kinda broken. The nice lady said they do not discount under $20. She said they would discount $22 down to $20. We found a second item not priced. They called the dealer and came back with $22. So we offered to take both for $40 instead of $42.... And the old manat the counter refused with the meanest, nastiest most condescending tone I have ever heard. So... Whereas I would have paid the extra 2 bucks... This troll's attitude lost the sale. I still gave it 2 stars because I did make a purchase on the 2nd floor and the woman was a pleasure to deal with. But I will not be returning.

i could spend hours in this store. a little more expensive than i like to spend. i like to hunt for treasures at flee markets and such. this place is packed with multiple floors of treasures with no hunting.

Wow! This store has so much stuff. We had a great time. We all went our own way up and down the 4 floors and everyone found something from a few bucks to a few hundred. Will go back again. Great fun for all of us. Amazing antique store.

The Peoples Store is one of the best Antique Centers on the east coast. The building is historical early 1800's which offers much charm to the shopping experience. As an Interior Designer, I find that Peoples has everything I could ever dream of all under one roof. I have designed many commercial, and residential interiors all from a one stop shop at the Peoples Store. From fine quality rare antiques, European Antiques, some mid century furniture, a splash of architectural and industrial, Primitive pieces, vintage china, and fabulous textiles. They even have a great silver collection, and awesome glassware and artwork. The 4 floors are all packed with unusual and hard to find pieces. Its not just the average shop of basic antiques, it has the best dealers from all over the place. The Dealers and the management are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Its always a pleasure to spend the day at Peoples and the wonderful artsy & quaint town of Lambertville NJ.

This is a great place to buy anything, vintage clothing, to antique furniture, I have popped in here for many years and its great!
