Im fairly certain that this hardware store has been here since the early 1500's. Why the word " antique " hasnt been incorporated into their name and signage is beyond me though.

If Wyatt Earp shopped here I wouldnt be surprised. If the Wright brothers bought parts here I also wouldnt be surprised. Hell, if Abe Lincoln used to buy paint here and they had a picture of him at the register, I wouldnt bat an eye.

This store rocks. Just dont expect it to be as expansive as a Home Depot or as expensive as an Ace Hardware.Surprisingly enough, the variety of merchandise here is pretty decent. They have all kinds of stuff here that you wouldnt expect.

Go see for yourself homey.

The people working here are very nice and the little old lady let me go behind the counter to get a closer look at door handles. Very cool.

The only thing that sucked was that some idiot hippy chick backed up her flower van into my cars front bumper. Idiot.

Zero stars! I agree with the previous post. I was greeted by the rudest, most obnoxious asshole in the city there. He is the old, short guy with a stick up his ass. I felt as if I was inconveniencing him by trying to do my business at their store. The funny thing is, I've been there before to get supplies and things have always been fine so I go out of my way to go there instead of Home Depot (like to give my business to the small shops). I will NEVER go there again. I will tell all my friends who own homes and do lots of home improvement to not go there and everyone else I know. Why would you be so rude to your paying customers? Do you think it's makes business sense?

I recently went to Ocean beach hardware to avoid having to drive into town to go to the Home Depot. I was not greeted they treated me like I was putting them out and they were not helpful at all. I think it was because they all had food and were eating lunch. I left without buying anything and I do not plan on going back. They are rude people and the owner should get some friendly workers

PROS: none
CONS: rude workers
