Memory Lane Antiques — Local services in Tallahassee

I knew before entering this store that this was not a cheap, thrift store. However, the owner was a bit too condescending as he insisted on walking right beside me during my entire visit and kept repeating that the items are many years old (but to quote Pawn Stars: "Just because something is old, doesn't mean it's worth anything."). I was searching for a distressed/nautical-like mirror and while I understand that may "lessen the value," to be told to "go look at goodwill" was insulting. I will venture into the shops along the coast, despite the owner's once-again insulting tone of "you won't find anything there." I am very certain I will find something as the beach rentals are filled with this type of decor. Location is less to be desired, too, with the homeless population of Lake...

We have visited the shop twice now, but we will not return. The shop has some nice pieces and we considered acquiring a couple of items, however, the owner is so annoying, arrogant, and simply the worse know-it-all you would ever want to meet so we could not wait to get out of there.

His pretend friendliness is about trying to show you how much “HE THINKS” he knows and like most people the more he talks, which he does far too much of, the more you realize how little he does know. Pretentious man without the class, true knowledge, or skill to back up any need to be pretentious!

It is amusing in a way to interact with people like this man as they never know who they are actually talking to or how knowledgeable, cultured, and affluent the person they are attempting to educate...

Antique shopping is one of our favorite pastimes and over the past several years have visited many shops in the Southeastern area. This visit turned into a very delightful experience. The place is very clean and organized. Every piece has a descriptive tag with a little history attached to it. No dust/dusk unpleasant smell. The owner, Paul, is a gentleman with vast knowledge of what he owns and sells. I learned the difference between antique and vintage among other things. It was a very pleasant experience and what Paul doesn't know is that his personal touch made our first ever visit to Tallahassee one to remember. Thanks. Lisa &...
