ARCHIE MCPHEE
Named after the zany great-uncle-in-law of its owner, Archie McPhee is an over the top shrine to offbeat fun. Packed with hundreds of kitschy treasures from plastic banana slugs and Bela Lugosi lawn ornaments, to the hilariously disgusting My Pretty Nose Hair toy, this Seattle landmark is the ultimate novelty store. The beauty of Archie McPhee is that every item on every shelf serves a singular purpose: Fun.
