Orphan Annie's Antiques

Always have the friendliest most knowledgeable staff. Their prices are always fair and they have a great wide array of museum grade inventory. Walking into their store or warehouse is like stepping back in time. If you are not a collector of antiques, once you have visited their store you will be. Almost impossible to leave there empty handed.

I went here last weekend, me and my mom came to Lewiston for the memorial and stayed for the shop. This place is incredible and they know there you know what. When I go back to Maine again I will definitely go into the shop. 10/10 highly recommend!

Absolutely beautiful antiques. Well curated without being stuffy. Lots of eye catching and colorful glass, clothes, scarves, necklaces, time pieces of lots of different varieties, furniture, beautifully unique lamps and lighting, doo dads, etc. I could buy out the store. Unfortunately I can only have small parts of the store at a time D:The gent who was attending the register and to the store (I believe the owner but I'm not sure) was really nice. Never was pushy, but always a soft holler away and would pipe up without pressuring if he overheard something he could add in.I was very, very impressed. I am definitely going back.

Love the hyperdense collections of jewelry, lamps, and just about everything else there. It feels like walking in another world.

Amazing! Full of lots of beautiful items! They have so many wonderfully unique things to offer. The displays are arranged thoughtfully and the store itself is lovely. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. It truly was a pleasure to shop here.

This is THE CUTEST little antique shop!! The owner is so sweet. I could happily spend all day here! There was no pressure from him to purchase anything that day. He was not obtrusive to the sale and more towards just giving us a good experience!

I couldn't just pass by this shop because I have a sourdough starter named Orphan Annie, a feisty one of a kind, started during the pandemic. The highlight of this place is the really impressive collection of gorgeous stained glass Tiffany lampshades hanging from the ceilings of each room.... totally mesmerizing. Walking into this shop put me in a state of awe and felt like a walk down memory lane with each antique I discovered. The owner was very pleasant and guided me to the Hummels and Angels that were neatly displayed in glass cases and shelves. Jewelry from an era gone by captured my attention and all sorts of art deco was displayed neatly. I wish I had more time to explore this shop but my 89 y.o. mother was texting me! I'm glad that "Annie" prompted me to visit!

I went there to see if I could find another teacup and saucer for my collection. I found the prices were steep however giving it a real chance I continued to browse. All the cups and saucers I saw were stacked three high and other things were piled on top of each other. I proceeded to browse through the very close isles to see all the pretty pieces that were there, and the hem of my pea coat brushed against a demitasse cup, which caused the cup to fall and hit another dish Breaking both of them. My friend and I were going to ask the gentleman about a cup and saucer that we had seen at the beginning of our browsing, but before I could say anything the man from the store demanded payment for the items that were broken. I never laid eyes on the pieces or touched them with my own hands until after the incident.Wouldn’t one have insurance for a situation such as this? Needless to say, I never asked my question gave him the money he demanded and left the store. I went over this in my mind as to how I would handle this, to let people know that if you break it, you will buy it even though there was no sign for me to see. My friend never saw a sign either and if we had, we would’ve turned around and left. By the way, he claimed that no one has ever and I emphasize ever broken anything in that store. Honestly, I don’t know how it wouldn’t have happened before.My take away from this is, if the isles look like they’re too cramped up and stuff is stacked on top of each other turn around and leave. Honestly, I didn’t have the money to give that man for all that and I was a palled that he could demand payment when it’s something that he could’ve taken as a tax write off and probably will anyway… Regardless of what type of insurance he has, or doesn’t have.

If you like to daydream about living in the old days where you set your table with beautiful china. And had afternoon tea. When women sat at a dressing table an had beautiful glass an china sets this is the place. Danny the owner knows so much about all this beautiful stuff , he ever has old jewelry, vases, lamps hanging planters... I could go on an on. But you just need to check it out.

I live in SC but happened to be in Auburn with my SIL that has a small shop in Iowa and we spotted this store. I don't even know what to say. I don't normally shop these stores but it was an experience that I have never had before. Would almost be worth buying an airline ticket just to go back here. Owner is absolutely delightful. One of the best times I've had.... and I spent to much money. Can't imagine what would happen if I had an unlimited budget and 60 mins to shop won on some TV show LOL DON"T MISS THIS STORE IF YOU ARE IN AUBURN?LEWISTON

The store is lovely, well-arranged, and neat. The walkways are a little narrow, so be careful not to knock things down with your purse, as the items are quite expensiveThe owner is very pleasant. Allergy warning: There is a strong-smelling incense display in the store. If incense/strong scents irritate your breathing, you will want to pass on this shop.

Store was so cool! A lot of antiques, glassware, costume jewelry, and vintage clothes. There were also a lot of antique lamps. Everything was very unique and the store owner was very friendly.

You could literally spend hours in this store carefully combing through everything. I finally paid a visit to this store after a good 10 years and bought a few items. The owner of the store is super friendly and even held my items for me so I could get my wallet I forgot at home.I would totally recommend anyone to visit this place, even if it's just to browse. You might end up finding something interesting. I did!Thank you to the owner for holding my things! ^_^-Cynthia

It may come off as overwhelming- but give yourself plenty of time to circle around the store- new things reveal themselves with every pass! So incredibly interesting! If you have an idea of something you're looking for (vintage or antique) this place has got it! And if not, ask about his warehouse!

Treasure trove! So many collectibles! Dinnerware, stemware, silverware, small to medium furniture, lamps, clothing, jewelry, knick-knacks, so many things! Beautiful stained glass panels for your home, both antique and contemporary. The warehouse (call for hours - is not open daily) has larger items, like period house parts (door knobs, doors, electrical wall plates), larger furniture, books, and so much more!

This is probably nice for a lot of people that are looking for pottery glass and jewelry this was not my cup of tea for antiques.

Wow, what a place, be sure to check out the warehouse, there is a huge selection of items to look at. Not well organized in the warehouse, but that's ok with us. The shop is amazing, the guy that runs the shop is fantastic, this place is clean and organized, a stop when in town.

Stopped in close to closing on Saturday. I was greeted warmly and didn't feel rushed. It was amazing and I knew that I could browse for hours, so decided I would return another time. Definitely stop by and expect to be amazed~

One of the most unexpected, unique, and unusual shops of its kind. Nestled in a shop in a location you wouldn't expect. This place has treasures that take you through time. If you are looking for items that no one else has whether for yourself or as a gift. Be prepared to pay for being unique.

Love this place. Lots of and lots of antique glass and porcelain. Some vintage clothing but it's really about glass. They have jewelry, wooden boxes and containers also. Chock full. Owners are very nice and helpful.

Thousands (hundreds of thousands?) of antique pottery, glassware, cups and plates, table and hanging lamps, basketry, bottles, tinware, Hall china, Rookwood china, Roseville china, McCoy vases, Czech orange class, milk and red glass as well as green, blue and other colors. Dan and Larry are terrific proprietors, extremely knowledgable about their stock. And their warehouse is open on Mondays - more of everything and antique furniture too!
