Space

I love this shop. All sorts of yesteryear nick-​nacks.
Shops like this have received a little bit of attention of late because they are selling the collectable stuff people hope to find in charity shops. The interesting bits you used to find in charity shops find a home here and the place does well. What’s more the really knowledgeable guy who runs it is a great to spend some time with as he comes across a great deal more than can fit onto this Tardis-​like shop.
It’s a wonderful place to browse in, but, as another reviewer said, don’t expect charity shop prices as a lot of this stuff is now quite hard to find, and is priced accordingly.

Gorgeous shop with wonderful clothes, furniture, music everything you could really want that’s vintage! A little treasure trove of beautiful items with a great atmosphere. I haven’t been in a while but I’ve been many times before and the staff have always been really friendly. They also offer a handy service through which you are able to sell on any unwanted vintage pieces, which I think is a brilliant idea! A friend of mine has given their clothes for Space to sell on a couple of times before and they did a really good job of it for her.

Finding a, um, ‘Space’, like this in Harrogate was a pretty strange experience really. Like walking on the moon. I saw it as I walking by and gravity went from underneath me, I got all bouncy in my step and bounded in — eager to forage for some vintage delights. Bargain vintage delights. In Harrogate? This is new.
I didn’t find bargain vintage delights. Rather expensive vintage delights. Very expensive vintage delights. You want £28 for a set of old cups? Oh right, I see. You’re really vintage. Oooh.
Oooooh. A new oooooh. You’ve got copies of The Face. I was never a cool enough early teen to be into The Face. I wish the face still existed. Oooooh. There’s a copy here with The Strokes on the front. You want a fiver for it? Not a quid? Ah. Right.
This place knows it has novelty value in Harrogate. And while it might spout about being an independent collective of vintage ‘retailers’, what would be a very enjoyable haberdashery of all nice, cute old things comes off feeling a bit too retail-​based.
We’ll see how this one pans out.

1000’s of fab vintage and retro items, clothes and furniture. Best shop in town!
