    Nice place. Other reviews mention that there aren't any or there are very few antiques here. I disagree, it has a wide range of items old and more modern. I think some people don't realize that time moves on and an item from 1970, which was now 51 years ago, is an antique. Nonetheless this place is a giant maze with vendors tucked in to every corner. Some great prices in here too. Only saw a few things that were way overpriced. Also, the building itself is stunning and worth a visit just for the architecture. Staff was helpful and courteous.

    By far, one of the best and coolest antique stores I've ever been too! I could spend an entire day here looking at stuff and probably still not see it all! Will definitely be making a trip back!

    They have some stuff but mostly junk. They do however have free lessons in horrible customer service. Stopped by today to see if anything interesting about an hour before closing. We were rushing to look at everything (we dig through stuff) and found a few things we liked but realized we were going to have to come back since they were closing. However at about 15 minutes before closing the owner comes down and tells us they're closing and basically runs us out. He turned off the lights before we were out of the basement, thanks! Then when I tried to ask about something on the way out he started getting really rude. We were going to come back but he basically yelled at us out the door. It was 8 minutes before closing. I understand wanting to get off work and watching the clock, trust me. If you want to close earlier, do! Change your hours, it's your business, dude. Customers are those silly people that keep you in business. I cannot ever imagine being rude to a customer, even at my JOB, but if you own a business why would you ever turn away a customer or make it difficult to give you money?? I just don't understand and clearly neither do you. I understand what should be though and so does my wallet, so see you never again.

    This is a very nice antique mall, the building seemed to go on and on. There’s a first and second floor plus an attic and lower level. The lower level was by far the biggest part. The selection was also great especially compared to many rural antique stores and malls. Plenty of display cases and complete stalls. Prices also were fair. And there’s plenty of parking!

    Multi-layered antique mall. All types of nick-nack, kitchen things, clothes, tools...you name it-it is there. We spent almost 2 hours reminiscing thru room after room and probably did not see everything. Great place to spend the afternoon.

    One of the best in the city! Several floors of antiques, and something for almost anyone. High end, to best bargains, we always leave here with something.

    This Antique Mall is much larger than it looks on the outside. It has plenty of unique items and treasures. I enjoyed seeing the viewfinders with picture discs and the antique dye displays.

    Loved the size of this place and the selection of items. Many vendors with a number of different antiques. Loved the intercom system to provide help opening cases on the other levels as this place is 5 stories. I'm a huge fan of confusing up and down areas forcing me to look thru things more. As with many places military items were over priced and not unique which I was unhappy with. Wish there would have been a lot more sterling items as well. Overall however, a great place that I would return to work plenty of parking and plenty to see.

    Lots of different vendors on over 3 floors and an attic. Lots of collectables and clothing for ladies. The home used to be a private residence then a mortuary back to another cafe style kind place. Then a mortuary again. A unique paranormal experience of you are lucky! Nifty items everywhere! A must see for antique seekers!

  • 5/5 T.J. K. 6 months ago on Google • 60 reviews
    This place is amazing! There are so many rooms upstairs and downstairs with intercoms equipped so the staff can help when needed. I will definitely be back. I spent almost an hour here and barely scratched the surface of the stuff they have!

  • 5/5 Manny S. 2 years ago on Google • 48 reviews
    Wow, this is a WONDERLAND of antique and vintage everything. It offers 5 floors of products sourced from around 50 different vendors. There are so many twists and turns inside, I learned from the staff that people sometimes get lost inside. Thankfully, there are intercoms strategically placed on the walls of each level, which you can use to ask for help exiting or to have certain locked cabinets opened to inspect some valuables more closely. Staff is very cheery and happy to answer any questions you have. The store occasionally hosts special events, like their recent holiday raffle complete with cookies to entice customers.

    I love wandering about this store. I buy vintage postcards from here frequently. My friend found a table and chairs. They have good prices.

  • 4/5 tammara w. 4 years ago on Google
    Great antique store. Three floors full of merchandise. The owner is amazing, he knows his stuff.

  • 3/5 SA H. 4 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Jesse P. 4 years ago on Google
    Love this place!

  • 5/5 John D. 4 years ago on Google
    This place was amazing. Make sure you leave bread crumbs behind because this place is massive. If you can't find what you want here then it doesn't exists

  • 5/5 liv_marshmallows 1 year ago on Google
    This place is massive, it's a lot bigger than I thought it was. It has such a huge variety of things. Found a cute VanityFair slip and had to buy it. Got very lucky that it even fit. Great place

  • 3/5 Michael T. 4 years ago on Google
    I haven't been here in several years and they still have some of the same items that were their way back then.

  • 5/5 Matthew S. 4 years ago on Google
    Just when you think you've found every room, on every floor, you find a whole other section to explore. They have reasonably priced memorabilia and antiques ranging from Fenton glassware, to books, posters, old tools, and the Pillsbury Dough Man. And more. Did I mention more?

  • 5/5 Adrian R. S. 1 year ago on Google
    This is one of the best antique malls I’ve ever been to; I absolutely love it! There is a wide variety of items, and everything is reasonably priced. It’s definitely one of my favorite places in Columbus!

  • 5/5 Thia B. 4 years ago on Google
    One of my favorite places in Columbus!

  • 5/5 Nathan Bennett (. 1 year ago on Google
    Best antique shop I've ever been in. I remember going there with my dad when I was young and playing the piano there. That same piano still sits on the 2nd floor but someday I know it will be sold. There are 5 levels to the antique store and it almost seems you can never take it all in in just one day. Would definitely recommend to anyone passionate about collectors items, antiques, and clothes. I got a pair of boots there and they are still serving me greatly. The staff are also extremely nice and always strike up a conversarion with me whenever I stop in. Best antique store in columbus.

  • 4/5 Jeff G. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is deceivingly large. It is quite a maze of floors and stairs that go to the same place, or suddenly you’re on a different level. The staff was really friendly and helpful. There’s a lot to see here. The $20 credit/debit minimum is kind of an archaic practice in todays world. The parts of the store in the old house are quite beautiful, and also a bit eerie. I would say some booths are quite messy and dusty. A lot to look through.

  • 5/5 Jessica R (. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is huge and full of lost treasures!! They have a pretty good selection of items from clothing, trinkets, dishware, furniture, art, jewelry and more. Prices seemed a tad bit high on some items but there were definitely some deals available. Like most antique stores there is a lot of stuff, it's fairly easy to get around. Maybe your first time there might be some confusion about getting around (multiple levels and some stairs). I don't believe that they were wheelchair accessible (call ahead). The building is awesome, but there are some major repairs to the roof that need addressed (leaking ceiling). Parking lot is small but easy to get in and out of. Overall I would suggest checking it out. I can't wait to go back and see if things get changed out.

  • 3/5 liz c. 9 months ago on Google
    customer service (even just a greeting; making eye contact when a customer says goodbye, etc.) was abysmal. i was told the card reader wasn’t even working as well, so it was cash only. unfortunately, you cannot put things on hold if you do not have cash on you. overall selection wasn’t too terrible, but it’s a bit more $ than other antique malls i frequent so i’m not sure if i’ll return often.

  • 4/5 PDP 10 months ago on Google
    Nice place! A walk through time!

  • 5/5 Brian W. 9 months ago on Google
    This place, while somewhat rough on the outside, contains a horde of interesting items. There were things new to me, which says something with the number of antique malls my fiancé and I have visited. We'll definitely be stopping by again in the future!

  • 5/5 Rorke M. 10 months ago on Google
    GINORMOUS! Set some time aside to wander around this place. It’s an older home so lots of stairs and no elevator or lift accessibility. Public restrooms are available. Staff is always friendly and welcoming :)

  • 5/5 megan s. 6 months ago on Google
    Really cool little spot actually it's big You got to check it out if you never been there something we're seeing and I bet you'll get a great deal

  • 5/5 Belinda H. 4 months ago on Google • 4 reviews
    A nice variety of items in this store which is in a beautiful old building with lots of history. We did a quick walk through and only spent about an hour in the store. There are several floors and you could easily spend hours exploring. Prices were pretty reasonable here, as well. We went on a Saturday and it was quite busy, staff was friendly and helpful.

  • 4/5 Mike B. 3 years ago on Google
    Seems to go on forever!

  • 5/5 Jin J. 3 years ago on Google
    What a hidden gem! I am an avid thrifter/antique collector/vintage lover and this is probably one of my favorite places in Columbus!!! It doesn't look at that big from outside but it just goes and goes. Love love love

  • 5/5 Kelsey V. 3 years ago on Google
    Love this place so much! There are some fantastic vendors who sell here. The attic is haunted as heck though.

  • 5/5 Amy M. 3 years ago on Google
    Fun place to poke around, the building has lots of nooks and crannies. Good finds to be had! Also, the history of the building is pretty interesting.

  • 5/5 Stella S. 3 years ago on Google
    Best antique mall I've been to and I have been to quite a few! So many awesome things and reasonably priced. Was just passing through but will need to make another trip soon!

  • 1/5 Amanda W. 3 years ago on Google
    I would highly recommend that if you are looking for antiques, you look elsewhere. I found the staff member working the desk to be pretty rude and pretty unhelpful. In a situation where she knew there was confusion, she made zero effort to clarify anything, and eventually raised her voice which is super unprofessional and super unhelpful in the moment. I honestly regret having spent any money here, and will never spend another penny here in the future. there are several really great antique stores in clintonville, I've only ever had great experiences in those and the staff have always been helpful and friendly.

  • 3/5 Vickie G. 3 years ago on Google
    Place is ok. Not much real high quality antiques. Service people r nice.

  • 5/5 Sherrie K. 3 years ago on Google
    Wonderful antique shopping experience! Lots of vintage items, well arranged, and enough room to browse. Had a wonderful time shopping all the separate rooms on multiple floors. The people checking me out were helpful and pleasant and helped carry items to the car.

    There is a lot to look at and at decent prices most of the time. A little hard to get around in there but it's very nice just to even look around

  • 5/5 Emily 3 years ago on Google
    This place is really cool, very fair prices and a ton of stuff

  • 4/5 Joshua J. 3 years ago on Google
    Lots of vendors in this antique co-op. Much larger than it appears from the street plus free onsite parking. Large selection of vendors and wide range of prices and styles. Helpful staff.

    I came here the first year I moved to Columbus 2 years ago and was so impressed. I spent hours here just looking around trying to find the perfect piece for my new apartment and found an amazing lamp for only $5!! They have such nice things here and its like a treasure hunt honestly and I loved it! very quiet and peaceful as well.

  • 2/5 Brent K. 4 years ago on Google
    Fun place to go and look, but prices are elevated beyond funny on most items.
