Hopkinson in Rushcliffe

A real junk shop and boy they have some great items, plus the staff go out of their way for people

i could get lost in this place ❤️

Several times when I have travelled by train to Nottingham to meet my friends I have called into Hopkinson's cafe, Th. coffee has always been good and the staff are friendly. the shop looks interesting.

Such a friendly atmosphere & super helpful staff eager to assist! Huge selection of Pokemon cards, antique home decor as well as jewellery!

Went there yesterday, very friendly staff. Cozy cafe. Thank you for a nice cuppa tea

Came in a few weeks ago for drinks with friends, the girl behind the bar was miserable and very unhelpful when my husband asked where his drink was and very rude just pointed to the beers at the end of the bar, didn't even pass them to him. Tables were all sticky, not clean at all, definitely gone down hill.

Great place, really close to the station so good for quick visits or waiting as they have a cafe.

Quirky shop full of antiques, curios and collectables etc. Great to explore on three floors with a cafe at the front. Friendly staff, worth a pop in.

It's a nice place, but I was yelled at for picking up an already opened envelope, and a staff member immediately demanded that I buy it. I understand it was a misunderstanding, but I would appreciate being spoken to like a normal person, not as if I were a thief.

Really convenient for a drink whilst waiting for the train. Grab a coffe, a beer and relax. If you have a little more time then checking out the shop selling vintage clothes, bric a brack, cameras and all sorts is worthwhile.

I’ve been going to this place for years and it used to be amazing. En par with Snoopers Paradise in Brighton. I don’t understand what’s happened to it but it feels like it’s now half as full and a lot of the stock isn’t vintage anymore and it’s completely lost its ‘vibe’. It’s now a huge disappointment when I go in there. SUCH a shame as this used to be my favourite shop in Nottingham.

It was OK, coffee area was very good the antiques place was not so.

Nice graff outside, cool selection of retro inside like Pokémon and comics. All the spaces look themed and looks well decorated. Being autistic it's a great sensory environment and not overwhelming.

I have not been to this establishment for sometime. The last time I was here the shop and Antiques side was pretty messy and shabby. My opinion. I have been in today and was confronted by the shop manager on my review. He seemed agitated and very irritated. He asked me why I put my review. I was abit stunned by this and to be honest insulted. Very defensive. Especially when I was not expecting it. He then followed me around the shop. I really don't think this is a nice place to be. I think the manager needs to seek help

It's an interesting little shop where you can buy some gadgets.

Im a dealer in the store selling vintage / retro film and digital cameras, the owners and independent businesses in here have put a huge amount of effort into sorting the building! With a brand new basement section, Re-vamped ground and too floors and even a fantastic street food truck open from Wednesday to Saturdays, if you remember it not being so great, give it another chance! The new determined vendors and the building owner deserve your time 🫶

Best place for cameras in Nottingham and if they don't have exactly what your after they know a place that does.

Interesting cafe/antiques/collectables

Great place to rent space and start off as a dealer!

Not sure to be honest, antiques are a tad pricey. Know their value. Nice to look at but not worth the money.

I really liked the items they have, friendly staff and reasonable prices, I recommend it.

A boy named Ash Ketchum who lives in a small settlement called Pallet Town and has just turned ten years old, which allows him to receive his Pokémon license, pick a first partner Pokémon, and become a Pokémon Trainer. Ash declares to himself and the Pokémon of the world that he will become a Pokémon Master. His dramatic speech, however, is interrupted by his mom who tells him to get to bed as he has a big day tomorrow. Ash protests that he's too excited to sleep, so his mom tells him that if he won't sleep then to at least get ready for the next day as she switches on a program hosted by the town's Pokémon expert, Professor Oak. Ash watches as Oak explains that new Trainers get to pick one of three Pokémon to start their journey: the Grass-type Bulbasaur, the Fire-type Charmander, or the Water-type Squirtle. As Ash sleeps, he goes over the choices in his head reasoning that any of the three available Pokémon are good for starting Trainers. However, his Voltorb alarm clock rolls into his hand as he sleeps and, dreaming that he's throwing a Poké Ball, he chucks it at the wall, smashing it. When Ash finally wakes up, he sees the sun high in the sky and realizes that he overslept. Ash runs to  Professor Oak's Laboratory in such a hurry that he doesn't change out of his pajamas, and at this point doesn't care which first partner Pokémon he gets as long as he gets any. He arrives at the lab just in time to see one of his new fellow Trainers (and Professor Oak's grandson), Gary, leaving. Unfortunately for Ash, Gary is very overconfident and brags that he was on time and already has his first Pokémon, although he refuses to reveal which one he received. The coffee and atmosphere are so good, with it being so close to the station what better place to visit and checkout before you depart on your own journey.

Great coffee, great atmosphere. Brilliant for people watching 🙂

Really not great and pretty run down

Four years since I last visited Hopkinson Vintage and was chuffed to see it still open and, what's more, thriving. Spent nearly two hours browsing. The ground floor has been reorganised, making the displays more accessible. Prices were reasonable and, as usual I bought fantastic cards from Woolf Vintage. It's a shame the cafe doesn't do sandwiches, but they do do some lovely cakes. A welcoming, well thought out place.

Great place to find hidden treasures, great coffee and sandwiches too!

What a fantastic place. Found by pure chance, had a lovely chai latte in the cafe and a great peruse around the shop! Could have spent hours and a fortune. Wonderful place with vintage clothes, comics, bric a brac and cameras, jewellery and fun decor! Would highly recommend to anyone living or visiting Nottingham. Amazing place

Coffee and cake good but the positives end there In antique centre no discount even if buying several items No bags Newspaper wrappings Most of stock car boot level especially upstairs Staff pleasant

Found it friendly, polite, clean and a good place of good memories, I'll be visiting again and best americano in Nottingham center Also hosts some amazing events and just a great place to have a drink, shop, get tattoos, buy handmade jewellery, a safe space for any who enter. Highly recommended. Gonna miss this place, good people and just fun memories Peace and love to em all.

4 floors of mixed antiques and bric a brac. Small tea room at the entrance. Also so outdoor seating. Stairs are a little steep and no lift, so anyone with walking difficulties may have difficulty climbing the stairs.

A treasure trove of just about anything and everything vintage. Clothes, cameras, music - you name it. An absolute must visit for anyone into weird and wonderful retro. Wonderful coffee too!

Nice atmosphere, cool events organised and a lot of unusual items can be bought inside

What an interesting building that has survived whilst the local buildings around it have been redeveloped over the years. Looking back over the years on Google Maps shows how the building has changed over the years but, in it's current state, it looks as good as the day it was built. Cafe, antiques and brac a brac. What more could you wish for.

Very nice place to visit, have a coffee and browse for hours. There are so many things to look at and the atmosphere in the café is very pleasant.

Lots of lovely antiques and gothic clothing 😌

Nice little bar/coffee shop near the train station with a retro second hand shop at the back. Friendly staff ,if you're just off the train in Nottingham get a hot chocolate with a shot of whisky inside you

Love this place full of hidden gems

This is a fantastic looking antique centre, with a youthful and funky vibe. The centre is well laid out really nice and helpful staff. However it is massively over priced for the jewellery and watches. I know it's in an expensive location near the train station in Nottingham However, the prices are eye watering.

Love having a wander around here. So many interesting things and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Worth a visit and there is a café inside too.

Love this place, could spend all day here looking at all the wonders. They also have regular events on, a cafe to hang out in, and the staff are absolutely amazing! 100% recommend 👍🏻

Great for finding unique clothes and trinkets but also just a great experience of a place to look through. I bought a lighter shaped like a clog and i don't know where else I could get that.

This review makes me sad to write as I have loved Hopkinsons for many years. However a recent visit has made me question a lot of what I thought the business was about. I stopped in one late afternoon in October with some friends and saw some amazingly cool quirky handbags with retro designs. I didn't get one but did consider going back to get a couple for Christmas presents for friends who loved them too. Well imagine my surprise when after a quick Google search, every single one of the bags that Hopkinsons (a 'vintage emporium' that claims to sell only retro, vintage, preloved and locally made by craftspeople goods) had on this display with actually from either Temu or Shein. The bags and purses are literally still on sale on those websites and Hopkinsons is there selling them for two or three times the price, under the guise of being vintage. Obviously I was under no illusions these bags were from the 1920's or anything, maybe from the 2010's but I certainly didn't expect Hopkinsons to be buying up stuff off massive Chinese fast fashion brands that have shocking environmental and human rights records, with allegations of forced labour. I'm so so disappointed. I shopped at Hopkinsons thinking it was a good option because it was supporting local businesses and artists, and was better for the environment to buy second hand, and to get something a bit unique. Will not be shopping there again and I urge others to look carefully at what they are buying.

Very enjoyable visit, with items to suit most pockets including collectables, jewellery and vintage clothes. Elefair Giftware has just relocated to the top floor, run by a very smiley, personable chap. Lovely cafe on the ground floor, which serves a perfect cup of English Breakfast tea.

Pokémon card vendor ridiculously overpriced

I wanted to stay for a hot cuppa, but the best enjoy open yet and the shop was really cold . I know it's winter time.

A more bohemian establishment for Nottingham located in a former hardware shop.

My favorite shop - coffee bar - tarot reading - place in Nottingham. Wonderful staff and great atmosphere.

Staff are always so friendly. Currently have a trick or treat scavenger hunt on and pumpkin carving which my kids have loved 🥰🎃👻💜

Loved it!. It was a sunny morning and my friend Alan and I sat outside enjoying a good coffee. Very nice young woman who looked after us. Had a look round the shop, workshops, etc. great-I will call in when I come back to Nottingham

I've previously had great experiences coming into this store and treating myself to a few items. Unfortunately, I don't think that'll continue. Visited recently and some items I was interested in are massively overpriced for what they are, and it wasn't even worth trying to negotiate. I'll stick to trade fairs and stores that have specialist knowledge on what they're selling.

Quirky antique/vintage shop with multiple floors and a café. It is a good place to stop for a coffee when arriving in Nottingham by train as the station is a short walk away.

Very adorable shop. Lots of things to look, explore and find. The bar is good.

Had some nice things from here.had one very bad item ? Not refundable.???

Lovely atmosphere and very chill out place

Utterly bonkers... loved this quirky joint. Full of total random curiosities... bric a brac, xray plates, clowns, retro clothing, records and other collectibles, with a sweet licensed cafe on the ground floor.

It's OK but seem to be losing its soul

Very nice atmosphere for having a coffee and even working. The antique shop behind the café makes the place very charming and special.

Great coffe, great store with so mamy levels full of stuff, managed to find a few vintage pieces

The barbers upstairs was really good, very happy with my haircut and he was nice too. Definitely will go again.

A uniquely amazing establishment

A great shop with lots of different items ranging from World War artefacts and Graded Pokemon Cards. Friendly staff and a great place to get a coffee or beer after getting off the train or before going on a train ride.

Lovely atmosphere and very friendly staff

Always have a nice coffee and a wonder round. Lots to see and always buy something. Silver Fox stand has some wonderful jewellery at good prices. Staff are helpful

Feel discriminated against by staff as i got baared as a disabled individual for simply coming in and enjoyinf visiting this coffee shop. I had no pre warnings or anything to tell me i was making individuals uncomfrtable by coming in and chatting,very dissapointed as this was one of my faveourite places to visit.

Fantastic antique and retro shop that includes a bar and does great food!

Loved being able to browse antiques whilst having a beer.

Although I didn't try the food in the café / restaurant the atmosphere looks good with lots of regulars but not klicy In addition to this there are 3 maybe 4 floors of collectables, boldering on museum pieces, maggot interesting for young and old

Great place to visit for a drink and a look around the stalls.

Very eclectic mix of antiques and retro, within a building housing a popular bar/cafe.

Café/Bar und Geschäft in einem Gebäude. Tolle Antiquitäten

Great pub with good variety of drinks. Lovely and friendly staff.

Huge variety on 3 floors! Everything from coffee, clothes coins, memorabilia to collectables. Friendly and polite staff, definitely worth a visit

Always find unique and collectable items. Friendly staff too!

Lovely place, Kasia behind the bar is nicest and friendliest person. Great atmosphere great place 🙌🙌🙌

Brilliant, we always love having a cheeky shop in there, nice pricing on vintage items.

Popped in for a coffee & a bite to eat. Food was fabulous, and the place was amazing! I will definitely be back when I have more time to rummage!

Great friendly staff. Great coffee and relaxed atmosphere

Big disappointment needs more in it.

I love this place, a chilled atmosphere and lovely staff.

Tried to pay for an item, which was £5 with cash. Was told they only take card's. I didn't buy it. If I've seen and wanted to buy an item, say for £1, I would have to pay by card! If I didn't see the sign that said "card's only," then that was my fault. But I think for small transactions, this is ridiculous.

I've liked this shop for several years, always interesting stuff to look at but I feel the new layout on the ground floor is kind of confusing and weird, plus many items unpriced and staff not present at tills. The space doesn't seem to be being used as effectively as before, but I like the bar/cafe . I'd say prices are a bit steep.

Close to the Nottingham train station with 3 floors. Recommended for vintage fanciers！

Great place and super vibes, the owners are amazing too. Looking forward to catching some more bargains here soon.

Very disappointing Entry via cafe to be greeted with lines of empty cabinets and a pitch of high priced European ceramics Rest centre some vintage clothing otherwise in the other areas upstairs one floor car boot reject stock Haunted Museum no longer there Relocated elsewhere Not recommended Very rundown and depressing

The worst antique shop I went to, very little vintage and antiques. The clothes are not vintage they are brand new, and the till person does not know the prices of the goods or does not have a number for the dealers. I highly not recommend this place if you are looking for vintage/antiques

Amazing as always! Went into the haunted museum and it was a lot of fun and definitely spooked us!

Dude, I love this place. Perfect for wackos like me. Tons of vintage and antiques, and at the end, a nice beer at the bar downstairs.

Enjoyed lunch. Great food and friendly staff. Then a walk around the great vintage items in store.

What a amazing building this place 👍 as very thing a bar and food, a vintage clothing and gift shop, tarot card reading and the haunted museum it's a fantastic place injoyable and the prices are reasonable and affordable if you go inside and visit the museum you get 10 cent off your food and beverages the tour guides are friendly and approachable attitude and the guys behind the bar are friendly and willing to help and IAM proudly too say it's a wonderful experience and a great day out and the toilets and area are clean and very tidy

Great friendly staff the place as great positive atmosphere, great inside,or you can take your drink out side & watch the world go by.

Surprisingly reasonably-priced for a vintage store. Lovely staff and some wonderfully odd items on sale. Great for a browse, if nothing else.

Cosy aesthetic with great coffee, vintage clothes, antiques, barbers, tattoo parlour and museum of curiosity in the basement! What more do you need in life! You can easily spend a few hours in there and not see the same section twice. Highly recommended for lovers of the esoteric.

I liked it so you'll probably like it too

A good, interesting place to browse and loose a few hours. Had a couple of good buys. Staff were great, helpful and friendly. Will visit again.

One (If not) my all time favourite shop! I’m not particularly a fan of vintage shops but this is the first I’ve found that I actually really enjoy going to. You can find a range of clothes from every era and style, antiques from war items to old phones, oddities such as teeth and taxidermy. They even have a bar, barbers, tattoo and tarot in there and The Haunted Museum downstairs is something I’m happy to go in every time!👻

Not an antiques shop! Normally I pass this place when encumbered with a suitcase but thought I'd make a detour to visit and browse. A disappointment. Mostly retro bric n brac and vintage clothing. Very pricey e.g old ladybird books £6 , one postcard £2. kerrang magazine £8! No antiques to speak of. Second floor closed off. Shan't bother again.

So many different trinkets and treasures here over multiple floors. And don't forget the horror museum downstairs, that was amazing! Partner loved it!

Loveable crew of oddballs and misfits

Visited with my daughter - she loves it. Not really my thing but I can see the appeal to those that like all things retro.

Really enjoyable, food was lovely and really pleasant lunchtime break.
