Who gives Ruby Rose one star? Maybe they were expecting a flower shop, it’s the only logical explanation.
The most charming little shop for vintage finds, you’re sure to find something that will delight you, and if by chance you don’t… the staff are sure to brighten your day anyway.
Great leather goodies, one of a kind clothing items, fun vintage hardware, maps, bags, boots, linens… Go see for yourself.

This place is amazing. Everything is just so unique and well cared for. The staff makes you yourself feel that way, too, while shopping around. I drop in regularly, and barely ever leave empty handed. Some of my favorite pieces and things have been found here — home goods and clothing — at fair prices.

yeaaaaah this is a 40 year olds thrift store, very small and very dark… disappointed with the reviews here since it was 5÷5…

Great little store. Lot’s of vintage finds. I have been following Stephanie and her sweet daughter a long time. Congrats on your new space. I will have to call and see who’s working there, before I visit. The lack of customer service by a gal named Kim. Made my shopping exp. most uncomfortable!

I was visiting SLO from out of state and had no idea what this store was about since i was just in town for the day but found this store on Unilocal and it sounded interesting. I really loved shopping here and stayed for over two hours. The way the merchandise is displayed is so charming and there is a lot of interesting things to see so you can’t rush. The owner was so kind and sweet. I ended up buying a couple desk accessories, a chenille bedspread and 4 pillows. i could not get it home in my suitcase so ended up having to ship it home but I was so happy with my purchase and wish I could visit this store again! I feel lucky to have stumbled across this store… thanks, Unilocal

I’ve lived in SLO for 9 years and somehow I just discovered this place yesterday! This is probably one of the few true thrift/​vintage shops in town. Very eclectic and beautiful variety!

I love everything Vintage and I recently discovered this beautiful store. I would describe it as a cross between a Parisian Flea Market and a Upscale Sonoma Antique store. A SLO Must See~

I never fail to find a treasure of some sort when I go into Ruby Rose! Whether it be a rug, a dress, a vintage slip, awesome jewelry or my dining room table (which I’m currently sitting at!!!) I’ll always find something! The service is friendly and laid back giving you as much or as little help as you need. Always a regular store on my list!!!
They are open Thursdays and Fridays from 11 – 5 and Saturdays from 11 – 4. Why the short hours? So they can go out and find new stuff! :)
They’ve got a fan in me!

Love Ruby Rose! This great little vintage store is on a side street, so you have to know to seek it out. The best thing about it is their vintage merchandise. You get the best vintage has to offer without having to go to garage sales or flea markets before the sun comes up, they do all of the hard work for you! With their constantly revolving stock, you have to make sure to stop by often. On my last stop, I got an amazing 70s tshirt, some great glassware and some jewelry I had never seen anywhere else.

Ruby Rose is a fun place to look for vintage items, even local vintage pieces (found a SLO Tribune piece from 1945 here). The owners are very friendly, and have a great sense of style. You can tell they see potential in items a lot of people would consider trash. I didn’t always find something for myself here because there are a lot more things that would appeal to women, but still worth a visit. Especially when Sally Loos Wholesome Hut stops by with yummy scones.

The best antique and vintage clothing store in central coast. The staff was fun, attentive and very knowledgeable. I will visit every time I come into town.

A hidden gem: this quaint little shop is a treat! The owner, Stephanie, takes so much pride in the wares she sells, and speaks passionately about her vintage finds. I’ve found some great stuff there, including some killer lace-​up boots, pretty dresses and a cool new pair of moccasins.
If you enjoy the vintage hunt, stop by – they’re now open Thurs, Fri and Sat I believe.

No one really seems to know when this place is open… I always see people peeking in the window and milling about outside trying to figure it out. So they’re open Thursdays, Saturdays and «by chance». It’s a beautifully decorated little store to search for vintage décor for your home. They also have consigned clothes for women, men and kids – I found an anthropologie shirt/​dress for less than $ 20!

Ruby Rose is most delightful. And charming. And a total hidden gem.
This place is only open a few times a week and is tucked in a little shop on a street most people have never even heard of. But to the people that know about Ruby Rose, it holds a special place in their hearts. Think of your most favorite vintage Etsy shop, the cutest, sweetest, and most adorable. Then imagine it being owned by a mom and daughter. And then imagine it in real life. And that is Ruby Rose.
I was lucky enough to catch Ruby Rose when they were open one Saturday. The store is filled with handpicked vintage treasures and the atmosphere is overwhelmingly warm and welcoming. The clothing selection is stellar, solid vintage pieces with every bit of charm. I can go on about the cute dresses, the lovely jackets, or the beautiful quilts. But I think you need to see for yourself.
