Speedie’s Vintage

Speedie Gazelle has been running the shop since September 2008, selling hand selected dresses, 1960s furniture, record players, bicycles, home furnishings and decorations sourced from across the world. “The items I have span many decades and styles so there's bound to be something for everyone!” Speedie’s shows his passion for vintage furniture and electronics in the spacious and kitsch shop décor, with it’s kitchen, lounge, and dining areas brimming with retro appliances and decorations, and the walls plastered with quaint pictures and Top of the Pops album sleeves.

Thrift shopping is currently booming, mainly due to the financial situation. “I have noticed the rise in thrift shopping but only because I'm interested in the trade and being part of it”. But Speedie isn’t resting on his laurels. “I have many fun and interesting plans which will be revealed when they are ready”. 

Speedie host a monthly party in the shop, offering BBQs in the summer, a live band, all drinks priced at £1 and the guarantee of leaving with a bargain.
