Cargo

I love you mini Cargo! I had ventured into the Cargo in Portland, a seemingly endless warehouse of knick-​knacks from around the world. Sometimes the one in PDX could even seem overwhelming so when I saw that Astoria had this mini version of this colossal store, I had to peak inside! Such a great store for birthday chotskies, cards, and little somethings of love. We bought much needed dice for a game of Left, Right, and Center, little umbrellas to dress up appetizers, some lovely soaps, and funny postcards to send friends. The prices are awesome so you won’t feel guilty leaving with a bag full of wondrous goodies; some for friends and some for yourself. The lady working the store was lovely too. If I ever considering retiring in Astoria, I’m filing an application here so I can constantly be surrounded by the cute stuff in this store.

Staff was friendly and helpful. The store is well organized. Parking is easy. Walking is easy too.

Great shop. Cool stuff, and Annie, the clerk we talked to (owner?) was so sweet, friendly, and helpful.
This place has just about everything — cute little pick-​me-​up trinkets and gifts, interesting books, housewares, and incredible jewelry.
So great, reasonable prices, and beautiful location.

This is a fun and funky little shop with items collected from around the globe for your perusing pleasure. I found several little doodads and knick-​knacks that were just too cute or nifty to pass up! Prices are good, and no sales tax is like a 10% off sale all the time. They have a nice selection of scarves and interesting jewelry — especially earrings.

I love everything about this store. It is eye candy in all directions. I always come out of this store with the most fun stuff. It makes for a fun stop when heading to the beach.

I love this store! I always find something that I «need» and could spend at least an hour browsing without hassle.

If you are like me and have ADD (hey there’s a kitty) and love to browse and see all sorts of cool shiny things from exotic lands, then Cargo is your hot stop for fun and quirky shopping in Astoria. This place is literally stacked to the ceiling with all sorts of goods ranging from tiny Chinese coins and toys to large statues. Think of a really cool Pier One Imports only with much better stock of fun items and less peacock feathers and candles being hawked by snotty yuppie lasses.
You just have to see this place to really understand it. This Cargo is the little sister store to their location in Portland. Employees are always super friendly and helpful. There are things here for all budgets and tastes, so check them out. If you are into really funky jewelry that has an artistic flair to it, you will love Cargo as well.
Lots of breakable and pretty things in a tight space, so it may be advisable to leave the rug-​rats outside to play «speed bump» in the street or to go hug the sea lions.
