I’m an avid antique store shopper and this is the most overpriced antique store I’ve ever seen. If the service was exceptional then I’d be inclined to support the business, but Ann was snobbish, cold, and unfriendly. The owners watched with scowls as we entered, with no greeting. In addition, she wouldn't budge on the unrealistic prices and acted offended by fair market value offers. They were selling some antique stuffed animals for $25 each which go for $8 each on eBay in better condition. I saw an old wicker bookshelf in fair condition for $800. I see nearly identical ones at a lot antique and thrift stores these days for around $200, and at that price you could just get a new one in better condition. They seem to be pricing as if they’re selling brand new, high-end items when in reality they’re not. It’s clear from my impression and from many other reviews, they need to do better research. This store is more of a museum since nothing is priced fairly. If you find something you like, look for it online and buy it there instead. There are plenty of other great antique stores in MA and NH to visit with friendly service and/or fairly priced items. However, Anntiques has neither unfortunately.

I just love this place. It has everything and the owners truly care about their community and Ipswich. It’s a must see if you are Ipswich.

The owner is a font of knowledge about the area and everything in her store. When we visited, her large showroom was being prepared for a movie shoot so the other rooms were over-flowing with her treasures. This place is definitely worth a visit when you pass through Ipswich, if only for the wonderful view of the river.

Not a bad place. Lots of interesting stuff but the prices were rather unreasonable for a majority of the items. Really nice staff and a great dog though! Check it out if you get a chance, but bring your big checkbook.

An eclectic collection of unique and quality items. Not where you should go if you're looking for cheap stuff but if you want quality vintage goods it's great. Ann and her husband were there and introduced us to their dachshund puppy.

There are 2 kinds of antique stores- antique stores full of lots of tat that the owner doesn’t know a ton about, in which you can sometimes find great bargains, or antique stores where everything is quite well documented and the owner knows a lot but the items are on the whole much more expensive. This store is the second kind. Nice stuff, especially southerwestern Native American pottery and mid century modern furniture, but priced by someone who knows what they’ve got, not a lot of “cheap finds” to be had here.

Large varied selection of antiques and collectibles. Some furniture. Very nice collection of South Western jewelry, pots and rugs. Pleasant proprietors.

Amazing shop, so much to look at and take in,it's like a museum where you can buy things. The staff are so knowledgeable of the pieces they show there and paint a beautiful history of the item and the designer. I will absolutely go back again .

My husband and I walked in with intentions to buy antique pieces for our new home. With several other patrons browsing the store, we felt singled out and were followed by what we think is the owner, into every section we wanted to browse (acting as if we were going to steal). Totally ruined our experience, being new in the community, and excited to find some great pieces to add to our home. Completely ruined the fun of antiquing

If you want to overpay for somebody’s garage sale items then this is the place for you. She is an absolute snob. Not to mention she does not keep her word. I found an item I wanted to buy. She became concerned that it might be to good a deal and would not quote me a price. There are plenty of other antique stores on this road to visit where they are happy to treat the customer like they want them there. I won’t waste another minute of my time with these people. If you want to find out what I am talking about then stop in and write your own review. You’ll agree. Two thumbs down.
