The Alley Chicago

Loved this place. Great selection of items , and the staff was very friendly. They didn't have a lot of the cute clothes my wife liked in bigger sizes but that happens. Would definitely go again. Might have to add a friend to our new gargoyle. Also, loved the Vader.

Met the owner! He’s great! The entire staff was great, very pricey can’t justify spending that much money on some products. But still a great store and will definitely be back ☠️

Awesome store! As a fan of metal or similar styles, you'll find everything you need here. We came from Poland to Chicago for 3 weeks, and unfortunately, we only visited the store 3 days before our flight back to Poland — but we’re very happy we did! We bought 2 pairs of shoes and a handbag, all of great quality. We were also amazed by the leather jackets. This store is truly one of a kind. A big limitation is that we can’t take more items on the plane with us. Greetings from Krzysztof (Daria Brother)@and Karmen

Spatterings of legitimate cool pieces, with majority being slightly cheap clothes and jewelry. The store is tight and crowded, you'll be saying "excuse me" a couple of times. Friendly staff for sure! Worth the trip if you're in the area, but not necessarily if you live over 25 minutes away.

I've been following this place on social media for several months now. We were up in Chicago for Thanksgiving so we decided to stop in and do some shopping. We were greeted by a very friendly employee willing to help us find what we were looking for. The store had a great vibe. Reasonably priced merchandise. The store was clean and well organized. I just wish I had more money to spend. We will be back next time we are in town..

A Chicago punk rock institution, opened its doors in 1976 and has become a landmark destination for counter-culture. I’ve been coming to the alley since 1993 and purchased an array of things over the last 30 years - an absolute phenomenal landmark. PUNK, ALTERNATIVE, METAL, ROCK!

If you want to find dark goth like clothing, cool printed shirts, a collection of pins in weird finds from movies, And a whole lot of leather And faux leather. This is the place to go. It is quite expensive. I will say bath. They have great sales at least when I went there everything was like 50% off for half off and for the shoes there if you they don't have your size and they will order it for you either to be shipped there or delivered to at home which I say is very convenient
