This is a great shop to find treasures of all kinds! They have a mix of vintage and new furniture and décor, along with collectables like records, books and jewelry. There is a shelf in the back of the store with all kinds of cool records and $ 5CD’s! The staff is always helpful and friendly. I can’t recommend this shop highly enough.

This is a great independently owned home décor/antique shop. It’s located right at The Village on State street, so you can check it out while visiting the farmers market. This shop looks small on the outside but it’s filled with all different types of home accessories and furniture. My favorite piece was a beautiful chandelier made out of seashells(though it was pretty pricey at $ 250) The theme is definitely antique/rustic and beachy. I didn’t see one thing I didn’t like, in fact I wanted everything in there! Unfortunately I’d have to save up, it’s pretty pricey! I mean $ 19 for a wine cork made with a single shell. a single shell??? No thank you. On the contrary it is nice to just look around and find inspiration, just be careful not to break anything!

Such bitchin beachy antiques! Think of upscale Pier One mixed with rustic design and sprinkle of beach vibe plus ideas taken from Pinterest, and wam bam thank you ma’am, you get Olde Ivy Antiques! I actually came to the Carlsbad Farmer’s Market and when I saw this store, my ovaries were exploding in excitement! Eclectic chic vintage décor to give your home a boost in the homey department as they have many one of a kind pieces. Also, if you’re looking for a gift to give someone, but don’t want to give the cliché gift, this place is perfect for house warmings, birthdays, bridal showers, and etc.

This is a really sweet little shop in Carlsbad. The front of the store is a bit like a beachy boutique with a few vintage items thrown in very skillfully. The back part of the store has several different dealers represented in booths. It’s very cute, the owner is very sweet and the prices are good.

Perfect antique shop in Carlsbad Village. The set up here is genius: the windows and front part of the store draw in tourists and beach lovers with an ocean cottage themed section, but when you journey farther into the store, it turns into your typical antique shop. There are soooo many decorative treasures at this store. If I lived close by, I would surely be in trouble. The theme here really fit my personal decorating style, so much so that I found a piece that I’ve been looking for for ages. An antique wooden horizontal hat rack. I know, random, but I collect period ball caps. Hat racks are ridiculously hard to find and when I would find them, they would cost way too much. This was a steal at around $ 20. And don’t get me started with the collectible book section. Spot on. I loved this store!

OMG! I love this place!!! When you first walk in it’s beautiful beach décor with vintage art and trinkets thrown in. The second half of the shoppe is row and rows of antique and vintage goodies! Individual venders rent out the shelve and sell their stuff so there’s an endless choice of everything you could imagine! Love love love!

A rare antique store with just enough good venders to not be overwhelming. The front part of the store is really fun with lots of unusual beachy things both new and antique. The owner is really great! My elderly Mom purchased their wonderful pussy willow lights(larger than twinkle lights mounted on sort of a branch that looks like pussy willows and are to be enjoyed year round in a vase) and ½ of them went out. The owner was so kind and understanding and replaced them very cheerfully and without question. What a rare thing for a store to have human kindness and understanding like that. I would definitely recommend this great jewel in Olde downtown Carlsbad.

I love Olde Ivy Antiques. The front area of the shop is beautifully merchandised. Lynn,(the nice & pleasant owner) does an awesome job in putting together great creative displays. The rest of the store offers various antique and vintage items from different dealers. Each dealer’s area is also nicely merchandised and very easy to shop. They have unique items that you just don’t find in regular stores. The prices are often affordable and reasonable. It’s a great place to find that special something for someone or for yourself. I prefer this antique store vs. the larger antique mall down the street. I would highly recommend checking out this store.

Olde Ivy, oh how I love thee! What’s the best thing about Olde Ivy? Olde Ivy can keep my wife busy for hours while I wander around the beach or(shhhh don’t tell… drink cocktails!) This is by FAR her most favorite store in the San Diego area. It’s an adventure in antiques and collectibles. There are multiple vendors from which to choose and the affordable pricing makes everything tangible. In her words, «It’s too much for a girl to take!» Unlike the mega-antique malls nearby & along the old 101 this store is clean, the merchandise is well displayed and NOT thrown together garage-sale style, musty, dusty, stinky & boring! Additionally the inventory is always changing, yet the quality remains consistently high. Then there’s the customer service. One saleswoman in particular stands out… Nancy. If Nancy is there, stay & shop. Unfortunately if the gruff owner is there, run away! The owner does great with display, but lacks human interaction skills. Nancy(a Connecticut native) is very pleasant, patient & knowledgeable. Olde Ivy is a «must stop» whenever we’re in Carlsbad, we never miss it.
