Such nice people working here for a great cause, helping people in recovery from substances or just a rough life.
Clean tidy facility with items attractively displayed. Lots of GREAT women's clothes and shoes. A ton of lamps, for some reason. I bought one! Cookware, kitchen supplies, knick knacks, odds and ends, men's clothing. Everything half off.
If you are doing a closet or kitchen purge, please consider donating to Bridge House.Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Foxy B.New Orleans, LA566Dec 29, 2023
So cute inside! I decided to take my donations here instead of Goodwill for the first time and was pleasantly surprised at the effort put into the store's layout and selections. Staff is pretty friendly too.

This NEW location of Bridge House Thrift Store on Earhart is replacing the OLD Thrift Store on Camp St., so disregard most of the reviews that were written before 2017. That was the previous location, and incarnation.
This location is super neat, has lots of furniture, a nice selection of household items, plenty of framed pieces, clothes, shoes and books. They are always having a sale on something. On my last visit I picked up a barely worn pair of basic flat shoes for $1! There is always a selection of books for only $1! They also had Mardi Gras throws for sale, in case you are riding in a parade. Many, many nice things in every category.
It is my new favorite place to bring my donations as I feel much better about helping local folks in recovery than I do about 'donating' to the Goodwill Corporate complex.Helpful 9Thanks 0Love this 8Oh no 0 - Oct 26, 2021
This is a great place to support. They have a good deal of furniture, clothing, and housewares. It seemed like half the store was on an amazing sale the day I visited. I didn't get anything that day, but I didn't have enough time to really look. I'll definitely be back. Not as large as the salvation army on Jefferson, but they still had great, quality choices.

I've been here twice and it seems like a great thrift store to find boots as I found a cute selection both times. The first time I left without a pair I liked and went back hoping they would be there but of course where gone but I did find another and didn't make the mistake again. They have a section to grab last chance items at $1. I will say the prices are high so once you take the 50% off that I received both days I went it brings the price closer to a thrift store bargain. I wonder if certain items are always 50% off as I see a slash through the prices of clothing and other items besides furniture I believe. Maybe the pricing is a way to make the customer feel they are getting a discount while making sure they make enough to support the cause? You must spend $5 to use your credit card or donate the rest to get to the $5 charge. I feel it's supportive for the community Grace House serves so I will continue to buy from there. Plus I want more boots.

Very friendly staff. I can always find something I love there. The money also go directly to Bridge house without middle men. This is why more people donate there.

I have supported this store for the past 3 years so it's tough to only give it 3 stars. I lost my home in Hurricane Michael and relocated to New Orleans. I replaced so much by supporting Bridge House. I felt it was such a great way to give back while for me being able to restart. I've sent so many incoming college students to help them give back while being able to find affordable items to set up apartments. The last couple of times I've been in there I've been shocked at the prices!!! These are used items that are priced way over their value even when you take the 50% off!! Glassware for $4.00 who buys a plain glass for that price? Used lamps for 79.00, you can buy lamps at full price in Walmart for 15-20.00!! I just don't understand the price gouging being done. I'll continue to donate because I feel its a good cause but you are far from a Thrift Store anymore.

Thrift store with large department store prices. I was excited to thrift and find treasures for less, well not here. Mediocre pieces for 10000x the markup. Take this off your thrifting list and bargain hopefuls and put it on the list you use when you visit Compass and rooms to go.. Only difference is at-least you get it brand new there..
