Shipyard Millie’s

This is a fun store to find mid-​century furniture and décor that is in great shape. While I’ve never bought anything here, I love stopping in to see what’s in stock. My only complaint is that it’s a rather small space. But they maximize the space that they have. I’ll be back!

Of the many vintage stores in the greater PDX area, Millie’s is my favorite! The owner has a great curatorial eye for what will work in her store and for her clientele. Every time I pop in, the inventory is completely different. I’m out and about a lot for work all around PDX and like it drop in to vintage stores to get little décor items for the homestead, and I always walk out of Millie’s with more than I intended!

The owner knows her stuff and if she doesn’t have it she’ll tell you if it can be found and where if she can’t get it for you. Additionally, she has great taste as information about care and repair of vintage pieces. There is always something delightful to pick up and the owner has never been anything less than pleasant and more often entertaining to boot.
The other reviewer makes little sense in her rant, do not let that nonsense keep you from stopping in to this gem of a vintage shop!

Who knew something this cool could be in Vancouver? What a great store, and my experience with the sales staff was that they were charming and quite easy to chat with! Go buy cool stuff here!

Since I have to put a star on here if not I would be in the negative. They may have a few catchy thing, however what they do not have is good customer service. The times that are posted on Internet website someone should stick to not open when you please. If the worker has had a bad day, it it not the way to run a business to be rude and tell your customers «you had a rough one» Also, it’s quite appalling to have the FIRST Customer in the door tell you they will buy something, and then to get interrupted by «clearly re sellers» that yell I’ll give you another 100 $ over, the first customer said they would pay that too. However, you Push the first person off, call them out of there name and that they are trespassing and you would call the cops JUST to sell some chairs because «you didn’t like there attitude.» She had no attitude, was calm. That’s is plainly rude, unspeakable, I would never ever do business so low, remember the saying «the customer is always right» maybe that was forgotten. Ganging up 3 against 1, plus triple your age just sicking. Would your grandmother in which you have the name of your business in be happy how you just treated someone who is her age. Doubtfully so.

Love this place! All mid century modern vintage!!! I’ve bought several 50s & 60s pottery there, and coveted great credenzas & tables. Has a few clothing items, too.
