In Between Meals: Best Vintage Stores In Reno
Thinking about your next meal during your current meal? We get it. During breakfast, you’re thinking about lunch. During lunch, you’re thinking about dinner. During dinner, you’re thinking about drinks, and during drinks, you’re thinking about whether or not you’ve earned a midnight snack. It doesn’t mean you’re not enjoying your current meal, we like to think of it as thinking ahead like a strategic chess player would. Still, you can’t go straight from one meal to the next, which is why we started our “In Between Meals Series”. A monthly guide to fun things to do in Reno in between meals. This month we’re featuring Reno’s best vintage stores! Reno’s consignment and vintage stores are prime with retro favorites for clothing and home decor. Vintage shopping gives you the chance to unearth rare pieces and do something good for the environment.
Reno’s vintage stores come in all shapes and sizes, take a shopping expedition circa the ‘50,’60’s, 70’s and beyond.
Junkee is a Midtown institution that provides hours of entertainment. There’s always something new & exciting (or more appropriately old and exciting).

Whether you’re looking ‘50’s chic or ‘70’s hippie they have something to make you smile, and the clothing options are only half the store!
