Cookie Shop

This is a rare gem of a place, for those hardcore antique and vintage enthusiasts that doesn’t mind a few cobwebs and such….kind of keeps those who aren’t there for it…away. But dig a bit…you’ll have realized why it’s called, Cookie Shop. She must’ve closed for a while and just opened up again. Hesitant on letting this rare gem out. But…she deserves a shine in a collection she seems to have collected over many years and finally letting it go to the public. So get your cookies while it lasts. And the smell of the wood burning stove isn’t too shabby either.

Bring a mask and gloves..and have some fun. Most things are priced just to keep away the wary.. but she did an amazing bundle deal. So I’m sure, she’ll bargain with you. And remember have fun with it…she sure did… so many groovy cool things i did not want to leave behind

Hi Rhoda! It was a pleasure to meet you today! I love your store. Just to let folks know it’s cash or check only. Prices are great! Loved poking around all the treasures. I can’t wait to return soon; I’ve got my eye on a few things! 😁

Rhonda allegretto you are a sorry excuse for a person, and I think your review was very harsh and threatening.
I think you may have misunderstood the name of the shop.....there is no food there so I get you were probably frustrated,but that is no reason to go after an elderly persons lively hood. What is wrong with you?
I know that now a days everyone wants something handed to them and don't want to put in the work or a little bit of effort to find their treasure.
That's the best part of this store is finding the treasure, but people are VERY LAZY today and want everything in front of their face.
Here's a tip for you Karen...I mean Rhonda.....less calories and more excercise and maybe you will be happier. Have a great day!

I had a wonderful time here :’) I was shopping around for jewelry in the $1 earring section, and realized by the end I was low on $$ (heads up cash only!) I panicked, told the owner and ran to my car to search and came back with a bottle of wine and only $3. The owner called me a sweetheart, declined the wine, and she passed me about all $20 priced worth of jewelry (worth much more of course) for my $3 despite my protest (this included a stunning pearl necklace with a handmade unique metal clasp). I thanked her profusely and we talked for a bit—shes a total angel and I’ll never forget her generosity :) will be returning soon w cash!

Side note—the last reviewer has clearly never entered an antique store, and lacks some humanity. It’s pretty on par with others as far as organization, and shes a wonderful lady who’s owned this shop for 53 years, sit down.

A classic search and find type of antiques store. The owner is friendly and you never know what you will find here.

Husband and I stopped in just to look and found 4 gorgeous pieces. The owner is such a very sweet woman. We live over 30 minutes away, and let me tell you.. ITS WORTH THE DRIVE!!

Sweet lady, very accommodating. Stumbled upon this shop when driving by. Decided to wander in and take a look around. Happy that I stopped. Beautiful items. Looking through items I found 2 beautiful wooden chairs. Negotiated the price a little which was awesome. So happy that I decided to stop. Got the chance to speak to the owner who as I mentioned was a very sweet lady. Will most definitely make a stop when driving through again in the future!

Cookies has been one of my favorite places to visit and "pick" antiques and vintage clothing for over 3 decades. I had a shop of my own in Providence for about 20 years and Cookies was one of my best antique sources. There is still always a treasure there waiting for me! The atmosphere has always been like home and the thrill of the "hunt" always a pleasure for me. In years past, Cookie and Rhoda were the host and hostess with the most generosity of any two people I knew. Price tags mean nothing at Cookie,s. I as a customer always come away feeling I have been given a gift. Now that Rhoda is running Cookies on her own, she always makes me feel welcome and her generosity continues. Rare to find the combination of successful business woman and the kind soul that she is. There continues to be new/old interesting things in her shop and I just LOVE all her costume jewelry! Antiques and fine jewelry don't last long at Cookie's. She has a loyal customer base that love her, her shop, and her interesting inventory!

We come from Connecticut and we stop by this antique shop when ever we go to Rhode Island. We love browsing through this shop.The owner goes out of her way to make us feel welcome, and to accommodate us on what we are looking for. Also we feel her prices are very reasonable compared to other shops that we visit. We highly recommend Cookies Antiques Shop to our friends and family!

I love this place, and I hope it never changes!
I have been coming here since I was just a kid, literally treasures around every corner!!
When I go antiquing and flea marketing I am always prepared to and prefer to get dirty and dig for my treasures.....It's like being on American Pickers :)

Side note: it's always best to go shopping for antiques before hitting up the brewery.....lots of breakables and one of a kind pieces......not a good place to be tipsy

I've shopped at Cookies Shop for over 50 years. We furnished our house with many items when first married. I was always touched by the numerous youths that had hard times and relied on Cookie and Rhoda to have a spot at the table for them over the years.
Cookie passed away 12 years ago , and Rhoda (the sweetest caring women you could ask for) is trying her best to keep the store afloat. The store has gems to be found ; but you have to look. What is there today may be sold tomorrow. It is a great store for the crafter who invisions unique projects. The artist or photographer looking for that unique piece or just the ordinary Joe who needs some glasses or furniture to complete their apartment.

Cookies has been the same for over 50 years and thats the way I like it. Every turn is a treasure hunt for a unique and exciting find. Weather it is a exquisite jade fountain pen with a story, a rare collectors typewriter, or beautiful tea cups from a long gone era, always a pleasure to visit with the owner by her rustic wood stove and share a coffee, swap stories and a smile. A must whenever i am in Exeter, RI.

I have visited this location, because I had driven by it and had an impulse to pull in! I love Antiques and I love exploring Antique shops! I purchased a candle holder and an old cake tray from the 1800s. I would love to email the owner for more communication if possible, thanks so much!

Cookies is a diamond in the rough and has been that way for the last 50 years. I wouldn't change a thing. The fun and anticipation of finding something special is what it's all about! I love it and will return..Rhoda is sweet and wonderful❤

I absolutely love love love this shop.It original eclectic atmosphere is what makes its charm.Every time I go it's a new adventure filled with amazing treasures.The owner Rhoda is always so helpful and a delight to chat with.

Wonderful shop with a wonderful owner, this place has been there for over 50 years.If some people knew anything about antiquing they would know Most people love to pick through clutter.Doesn’t matter how messy or if there’s cobwebs🕸🕷The owner is Not overpriced, most of the time she just about gives her treasures away because that’s just the way she is.Maybe people shouldn’t go to a brewery before they go antiquing ,or maybe keep their reviews to themselves because like my mother always said “If you don’t have something nice to say don’t say anything, and don’t go back “😜

Some of my most cherished antiques came from Cookie"s Shop, not to mention a cherished friendship. If you are looking for a fancy dancy shop where everything is polished and in place, do your next U-ey somewhere else. Rhoda's loyal customers don't come in with a critical eye but with a wealth of good will because she is not just a shopkeeper. She is a counselor, a mentor, and a friend to many. So if a cobweb here and there scares you, just drive on by, but if you love to poke through the possibilities like I do, stop and visit. No dress code required.

This shop is an amazing treasure chest of goodies! You can spend hours looking through all of the goods. I highly recommend checking out Cookie's!

I visited Cookies yesterday. Rhoda is such a lovely woman and this place is chock full of treasures. I can’t wait to go back!

This place has been open for as long as I can remember. We came here last Saturday before we went to a party. Walked thru and found some odd and ends and read a article back from the 90's talking about how you can find anything.
