I can’t fully word how wonderful this place is, the owner was incredibly friendly and his door greeter (a sweet little dog!) we’re welcoming. After that the selection of antiques and oddities were abundant, lots of little hidden treasures as well as some larger than life selections of things you won’t find anywhere else. My boyfriend and I were especially attracted to the back room which is filled with a diverse selection of items (we mostly admired the animal skulls ). My only issue was that I didn’t bring enough money as I would’ve probably left with half of the taxidermied animals!I definitely recommend coming here if you want to find something truly unique!

The one and only, ORIGINAL oddities antique store in Pittsburgh!Few min drive for us staying downtown last weekend... greeted by the friendliest doggo and a friendly, knowledgeable, amazinggg owner who is just a good guy! My son, girlfriend, and I bought a few things but will return in a few months next time we are in that area.Killer finds, good prices, and great selection! Hope to chat it up again soon with him... (p.s. to the owner: My girlfriend, son, and I are the ones that bought the blue action figure, the wrist bracelets, and catholic statue piece).

This place was very cool!We were greeted by the sweetest little dog on the planet when we walked through the door. The little guy also trailed behind us while we explored and it was very sweet! I loved him. Haha!The owner was super kind and shares a lot of information about the pieces in the shop. It is rather small, but is a home to some strange things. If youre like me, and like the creepy, this place is worth a stop. The back room had a lot of cool dead stuff in jars and some amazing anatomical illustrations from the 1800s.I will definitely keep visiting here to see what new stuff they get in, because the owner has an eye for the weird! And Im about that!Also... I love that dog. Seriously.

Funky little store in the heart of Castle Shannon. Cool oddities that cant be found easily anywhere else. The shop owner is a guy with a vast knowledge of his items and the story behind them. He also is a valuable asset if you are in the market for a particular item. Check it out for yourself. Ask him about bird whistles (just a little sales humor).

This is my favorite store! Justin is such an awesome guy to talk to, and there is no where else in Pittsburgh that curates stuff like he does! I could (and nearly have) spent all day here. A huge part of my home decor is from Rough & Ready and Im always looking forward to what I will find next. :)

Justin is a second-generation antiques dealer who has curated an unusual collection of objets dart and curiosities, old toys, colorful lighting, vintage clothing, taxidermy, tools and abstract sculptures -- one of the coolest spots in Castle Shannon. Gee, you can make it a kooky day and visit Any Warhols grave just down the road where your visit is beamed LIVE to the Warhol Museum on the North Shore -- fabulous!
