Well maintained antique shop with diverse selection of items — staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Downside— if you want to purchase things around the shop it’s a bit challenging as they consign with so many antique dealers and their process for ringing up orders is entirely manual (so it took a Very long time to have our purchase of around $125 to be calculated/checked out).

Great antique store with a unique selection of various vintage items. Lots of parking and very convenient location off the main road.

Excellent antique store with a lot of variety. We have stopped several times over the years on our way to Vermont and it is always worthwhile. The owners are also lovely and went above and beyond a few years ago to arrange shipment of an item that I regretted not purchasing while there. We can’t wait to visit on our next trip!

Two floors filled with home goods, records, and odd items - the prices are on the higher side. The curation is highly eclectic, the space is a bit crammed overall

Wasn’t greeted upon entry and the store gave me racist vibes. So after about five minutes I left to not return. Also items were overpriced compared to what they are price at other places.

There's only one reason why it's 3 stars. I simply did not go in. From the outside, this store is very intriguing. I was on my way to Niagara Falls.

I really love going in the store and looking around. However, when we were there, the woman behind the counters seemed extremely stressed and was complaining that there was customers in the store because she needed to leave early. We just finally left because it was easier than listening to her complain. It was unfortunate because we have not been there in a while

Great store with a variety of items for lots of different tastes. Reasonable prices. Easy to find with easy parking. Cool items on the porch / entry area to reel me in!

If you want a wonderful experience that will make you stop and "remember those days", then come to the Gristmill!! The owners are not only professional in their business endeavors, they are friendly and happy to see you enter this well kept, fabulous looking shop! They will engage in a memorable conversation and tell you what you need to know about each piece of merchandise you purchase. I especially like coming in during the Columbus Day weekends, where another treat is to peek at the beautiful New England foliage! Come one...Come all!!!I will see you there this weekend!!

This antique store is a hidden gem! I have gone by it numerous times on my way to Vermont and never stopped in. Today I did.....and I'm so glad I did. The man operating the store was so pleasant and helpful. The store is very deceiving. It looks small, but is packed with all kinds of antiques that are displayed very nicely.

We came up specifically to visit your store. Your hours on-line and on your phone said you open at 10. We waited in the parking lot until 10:15 and no one showed up.

We frequent Gristmill , stopping in every time we head up to our home in Vermont. Bob is a really terrific guy, always so helpful and friendly. There's a great selection of vintage and antique treasures and always something fabulous to pick up at a fair price. Certainly worth a visit!

Wonderful place! Several different vendors to satisfy all types of styles and collectables. Everything was clean and well organized making for a fun exploration day. They even provided my 87 year old mom a place to sit while we explored the second floor... super sweet of them. Pay them a visit and find yourself a treasure. 😁

This is a multidealer store. Lots of varied merchandise with the typical New England level of quality. Having said that, I think this place must get a series of regular pickers. All old stuff but typical old stuff. Really unusual stuff was not abundant. Prices were good. If I lived around here I would hit it every two weeks easy. I picked up a cool 1924 Eveready battery to add to an existing collection. I also picked up some ephemera that I might save or try to flip.

Fabulous little gem on Scenic Rt 7 with a generous, hospitable host. He had everything from unique old doors and furniture to glassware and lamps. I checked out all his cabinet card photos in numerous shapes and sizes, all very reasonably priced. Check out the bright green screen door on the front porch! Wish I'd had somewhere to put it!

After repeatedly calling and emailing about a ring for months (since August), I finally got ahold of the owner of the store. He tells me they have the ring still, he’s going to let me know how much to purchase and ship. I’m told today that the ring is “long gone” and he’s sorry.The kicker is that if they had accepted credit/debit cards I would have purchased the ring when I was in the store. But no, I did not have my check book (who does?!).I am so disappointed. I will not do business with a company who treats customers in such a manner.

My husband and I love to antique shop, and go quite frequently. Initial impression was that the shop was nicely organized. As we rounded the corner to where the cashier, presumably the owner, was sitting we were greeted with a stern glare and no "Hello, can I help you find anything". Thinking he was just a grumpy old man, we preceeded with the intent to spend a substantial amount of money because it was my husband's birthday. Soon after, a white male came in the store and he greeted him with a smile and asked what he could do for him. Then a second white Male came in, and again greeted him with a friendly smile and asked him if he could help him. I also noted that he was watching us on his surveillance system. I happen to be white and my husband is black. This man is clearly a racist and we will never give him a penny of our money.

Wow, this is the holy grail of Antique shops! I’ve always loved looking (and buying). They have everything, the place is huge. Don’t pass this by!!!

Nice fall destination. Follow Rte 7 directly east out of Troy. Opens later on Sunday. Two floors to visit. Combine visit with a trip to a farm stand. Lots to see along Rte. 7

I was looking around, hands to myself..After being in this store for not even 5 minutes I was told by counter clerk "Joyce" that the police were called ahead of my arrival.Previously to arriving at this store I called ahead to ask if the store sells gold jewelry and was told yes...then asked for my name?After driving 40 minutes to this Antique shop hoping to find a gold pendant... my session at this store was cut short by being told "just so you know..I called the police ahead of time!".Walking in I said "Hey", being polite, and not touching the merchandise there was nothing I could have done to caused any thoughts of being anything but a purchasing customer.Maybe Joyce did not like the way my voice sounds over the phone and the way I look..who knows. But personally I will take my spendings to all other Antique shops but this one from now on.An unfortunate loss of a potential sale and loss of my time.

Walking into this wonderful antique shop is a trip back in time. Bob is a most personable owner and he has a fine selection of items. We were moving and he paid a fair price for some of the antiques that, unfortunately, we could move with us.
