What a nice place! The staff there are very friendly and very knowledgeable of everything. If they don't have what your looking for then they can direct you in the right direction.

I love this store! Everything is reasonably priced, especially considering how nicely it's curated. No wonder it's already beloved by college/h.s. students and adults alike! The first time I visited, I only meant to take a quick look see, but ended up purchasing a vintage flannel in a color I've long been searching for, and a men's work shirt in a gorgeous indigo, with the perfect fit. Also, a cool silk neck scarf. The next time, I found a beautiful necklace that I just had to have. I'm looking forward to delving into the furniture and gift type of stuff. It's a really nice addition to "the shire."

West by East is one of the best vintage and antique stores I have visited in years. There is a great selection of clothing, furniture and other items. Lydia, one of the owners, is so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. My daughter and I stopped in for the grand opening at the beginning of the summer and have been back several times, never leaving empty-handed. Prices are so reasonable. And everything is high-quality. West by East is a fantastic addition to the Great Barrington shopping scene.
