Great place to shop when you don't know what you want

by AustinRealtor

Somebody needs to kick Novotney in the shins and motivate him to create a website. I have shopped at Texas Junk over twenty-five years... that kind of hurts to say out loud because I don't feel that old! Texas Junk has tons of amazing stuff tucked away on floor to ceiling shelves and spilling out of buckets and bins. You can find vintage roller-skates to old blue glass telephone transformers. I loved shopping here in my youth & if/when I visit Houston I will stop by for a new treasure!

Have a beer on the roof for me Bob! Adios

• Pros: Tons of neat stuff you never knew you needed
• Cons: Only one location and no website.

Texas Junk is THE best 'junk' shop in Texas!

I love the huge wood stove with several comfy chairs at the front of the store each winter. The place is so huge and has such a diverse selection it would be impossible for me to list the attributes. Suffice to say... it is a wonderful junking place... superbly organized... and just a lot of fun to browse through. (you'll never believe how many things you'll find you didn't even know you needed!!!) Lots of yard art type stuff too.

• Pros: tons of "stuff"... regularly adds new merchandise... good prices
• Cons: sometimes kinda hot in summer... and a bit chilly in cold weather... but not terrible! (and then there's that great wood stove!)
