This was a lovely antique store. My favorite part was the slanted stairs that lead up to the entrance. Once inside you are greeted with all kinds of glassware, paintings, books, knick knacks but all quality pieces. The are neatly labeled with name, date, and price. Everything was clearly marked and in place. If you are looking for a unique gift this would be a great place to search. Only accessible by the stairs and it is tight so no strollers, carts, or kids. Too many breakables!

This store is a ton of fun to poke around in. The owner has been there for a long time and is a font of cool info on 'all things antique.' : Very friendly guy and the store is laid out in an interesting way with lots of fun finds.

Delightful antique store focusing on older glass, including EAPG, carnival glass, and elegant glass. Also pottery & ceramics, and vintage magazines & ephemera and records. Owners are very friendly and knowledgeable. I enjoy visiting and always find something to add to my collection.

Cute local shop packed with antiques, particularly crystal. My husband & love the art deco inspired crystal pitcher that we bought. Upon doing some research, we found that the pitcher is pretty good quality and value, so based on that the price we paid was fair. Will be back again!

I had a wonderful experience shopping at Roaches in the Attic. It's a beautifully organized antique shop with many different items including beautiful glassware, China and some very lovely furniture pieces. The owners are wonderful and extremely knowledgeable and were gracious enough to allow my bull-like toddler to look around as well. Fantastic experience and a must see in downtown Herndon. Also a very cute name for the shop!

I've been visiting the "Roaches in the Attic" for many years. Their collection is divers and interesting. The merchandise is good quality and competitively priced. I've always enjoyed my interaction with the Roaches who are an intelligent and congenial couple. Nothing but praise for the business.

This is a gorgeous shop with a wonderful collection of antique glassware, lamps, books, advertisements and prints, records, tobacco pipes, and more. Everything is neatly organized with descriptions and dates seriously, it's the neatest and best-organized antique shop I've ever been in. The prices seem a little high, but then again, it's a real *antique* shop. Except for the records and some prints, the newest items were from the 1940s, and everything was in pristine condition. The name definitely doesn't fit!

A beautiful, if hidden, treasure in Old Town Herndon. Straying from the run of the mill junk attics, this antique collection has exquisite pieces, a broad range of desirable collectibles, and one of the most comprehensive glass selections I've ever seen. The whole flat is clean (proper dusting can be hit or miss with these types of locations) and the owners are a joy.

On my visit, I had the pleasure of being helped by Doug, who was kind and knowledgable. We will be back with every friend and family member we can convince to come explore with us and we are sincerely grateful to have this storefront in our community.

Shop owner only sells antique glass and has no knowledge of any other antique items. Never in my life have I been treated so rudely. Don't waste your time here.
