If you want to follow along on our road trip for yourself, you can use this helpful map.
Editor’s Note: two of these Thrift Stores have, sadly, closed their doors for good. Both Our Thrift Store and 12th Ave Thrift are no longer in business and we replaced them on this list, but we loved them so much that we had to give a quick shout-out to the amazing value they gave to our city. Want to replace these stops on your road trip with another Nashville favorite? Though it’s not a thrift store, Flora Plant Shop is full of charm.
This quirky little thrift shop in the Nations is a true hidden gem. Also, we're not sure who Dave is, or why he's crazy (maybe this is where the guy from Plants Verse Zombies went), but we're not complaining about half-price pants. For more information please visit the This N That Thrift Shop website.
Southern Thrift has three different locations around the city, but the favorite one for locals is the West Nashville location. Be sure to check out the basement when you go! For more information please visit the Southern Thrift website.
Ok so we will declare that The Hip Zipper was the most unique thrift store on this list, but, this next one has it literally in the name. The Unique Thrift Store is on the Charlotte Pike strip of thrift stores, and they live up to their name. They've got one of the biggest thrift furniture sections in the city. They truly specialize in finding the perfect fit for your home and your style, so let the bargain hunting begin! If you would like to learn more check out the Unique Thrift Store Facebook page.
At Buffalo Exchange, you can buy, sell, and make good use out of old clothes. What can be someone's trash can be your treasure and end up in your closet. The racks are always stocked with interesting finds so make sure you check it out! For more information please visit the Buffalo Exchange website.
The Hip Zipper not only breathes new life into old clothes but creates an entirely new style all on its own. These clothes might hark back to a time long forgotten in fashion but this store puts it front and center, giving each piece a unique flare. Not only do they bring back old styles but they give them new life. This is probably the most unique thrift store on our list and deserves a visit. If you want to learn more please visit The Hip Zipper website.
ThriftSmart is actually one of the largest thrift stores in the city! If you're looking for the biggest variety, look no further. Cds, books, clothes, and so much more can be found at this lovely shop. This is a store that works hard to impact the community in a variety of ways and that's just one of the reasons people love shopping here. For more information please visit the ThriftSmart website then check out this testimonial video they made about their store:
Music City Thrift in South Nashville is known for their absolutely incredible selections of clothes, furniture, and books. You never know what kind of treasure you can find on the racks or on the shelf, for any more information please visit the Music City Thrift website. There is also a location in Smyrna if that is closer to you, or check them both out!
Visit at 3780 Nolensville Pike.
So did you shop till you drop? These are some pretty amazing thrift stores in Nashville, so make sure you visit each one. Then after your treasure hunt, stop by one of Nashville’s coolest restaurants for the best rolls in the city.
