Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The staff is some of the most rude, disrespectful people that I have ever dealt with. It is shocking the way they treat customers. I can promise you that the moment the store opens, and if you call them they will tell you that they’re too busy to talk to you and even hang up on you. They haven’t quite figured out how to use the hole button but since they pretend to sell items and pretend to talk to their imaginary dealers I am quite sure that they are pretending that they’re busy too…They absolutely will not return phone calls and neither will the owner of the store. The owner of the store actually pretends to check with her dealer when in fact, she actually is the owner of all of the space 😆….. they’re definitely some of the most immature clowns you will ever come across and do yourself a favor and price shop eBay and Etsy before going there! Their items are also very overpriced, they refuse to ship, or even take off $50 on a $600 item. The owner actually admitted to pricing items in her store that she doesn’t want to sell so that’s why they have been treating me so bad. Ridiculous behavior for a business to engage in. These people will make it so difficult to buy anything from them I can promise you that. If you want you can email me and I can tell you more who knows what else they have done to people, their business practices def give me scammy vibes email me at

This is a tres cool joint. It is jam packed with antiques & curios as well as salvaged architectural pieces & decorations. In the same trip that we found door sets for antique doors in our home, which we were not able to find any where or online, we also found porcelain fixtures that fit our matching antique bathtub and sink. Plan the time to get lost in this place.

Don't let the unassuming building throw you off. The Antique Warehouse is located in an old Hotel/Brothel from back in the day and they have some great stuff. Not so much antique store as Victorian era architectural salvage store. They must collect every salvageable piece of architecture that has ever been dismantled in Galveston Texas. If you need period style architectural pieces this is the place. They have lots of neat parts and pieces that could be repurposed into other things. Hundreds of period doorknobs, fixtures, lamps and chandelier parts, hinges. They really know what they have too. Instead of just searching aimlessly amongst everything, ask them to narrow down your search. Some of their pricing is over the top, but I did not purchase any item that I needed to bargain for so I don’t know how hard or easy negotiating prices can be. Most of the typical antique store fair is located in the rooms upstairs and each room kind of has a theme. Something for everyone. Want or need an iron or brass bed? There is one whole room dedicated to that. There are some great antique pieces in this place but where they really excel is their volume of Victorian era architectural salvage. Worth a look for sure.

A spur of the moment trip to Galveston to enjoy lunch and quick trip to the local Antique Warehouse turned into a truly, fun and enlightening afternoon! I am not sure if there is a teenager out there who would have a good time antique shopping with his parents, none the less, but ours did! Thank you to Scotty for your expertise and engaging our son into conversations about antiques, but especially life! So fun and a pleasure to have met you - and we ended up with the antique doors we came for! Project to be posted when completed!

There is a lot of "stuff" to pick through here. Some good, some bad, some old, some new, and some just plain junk. The ratio is not 20% of each--more like 2, 20, 30, 10, and 38 If you know what you are doing, this is a great place to find the "hard to find" item you can't find in your home town. We were very happy to get what we wanted at a decent price.
Warning, there are some very improperly priced items here! I think the pricing policy is to add more to items that with have broad appeal or are "eye catching."
All that being said, this is a fun little place to visit and we will be back. Make certain you have on your "grubbies" because this is a messy place!
The "brothel history/stories" are also a drawing card for this place. Keep that in mind if you have young kids--avoid going up the stairs!
Thee is free parking right next to the property. There is a Farmer's Market--as such--on the weekends next to it. If you go, get there early, because they do sell out of items fast.

When visiting Galveston, you have to check out the Antique Warehouse. They have all kinds of antiques, and the city's largest selection of reclaimed lumber and moldings for restoration or putting together an antique look. Scotty, the Owner is very cordial and most helpful in helping you find exactly what you are looking for. The warehouse is situated in a historical old brothel, and provides a glimpse of another side of Galveston upstairs. You have to check it out!

If you can't find it here, it may not exist! Scott is so helpful as well having a huge selection of "just about everything". He and his family are a real asset to Galveston.
One can't forget the beautiful furniture he builds from re-claimed wood, custom orders too! My only complaint is when dear husband heads over there, returning hours later, with more stuff. We don't need anymore stuff!!!

This is not an "antique store" in the traditional sense. While they have a lot of antiques, this place is really about architectural pieces and a such is this is the place to come. They literally have a warehouse full of salvaged items from old houses and buildings... some things I had never seen before. If you come, allow a lot of time to check out all that they have.... from huge pieces to many smalls of every kind. Unfortunately, many of the items are not priced so you have to find the attendant and inquire as to what items cost. I guess with a place and inventory this large pricing every item would be impossible. At any rate, if you're into this kind of place, or looking for a specific architectural piece, don't miss the Antique Warehouse. It's a fun and interesting spot in Galveston. Incidentally, note they don't open until 11AM on Thus thru Sat and 12 Noon on Sunday.

This place has everything. If you are restoring a home, it has all the fixins. Old hinges, faucets, windows, sinks, and everything else. It also has some great antiques, nik naks, paintings, old clothes, old toys, beach themed items. Not to mention just walking through the rooms of the old Oleander hotel was amazing. The people were very friendly and it was a treat to see.

We stop by this place to check out the hardware, chandlier crystals, architectural pieces, etc. This last time, we went upstairs and looked through each room. Wow, have been going to this place for years and haven't explored upstairs..wow..just amazing, if you love antiques you will appreciate the variety of the collection and the history of the building and the items..and it you find an item without a price, just ask..you might be surprised
