large antique center
Apr 2019
We were greeted with friendly hellos and welcomes as soon as we walked in the door. I couldn't wait to start exploring judging by what I could see from the door. The main aisles were wide and clear but they had more jumbled and tight booths that I like to see (would have been rated excellent if it wasn't for that. We just walk right past the jumbled booths because it's not worth tripping, knocking something over, or having to move items to get into a booth. It's almost like some booth owners don't even care if they make a sale or not.

This is a 17,000 square foot building with over 200 dealers. You can find art, furniture, vintage clothes, lighting, glassware, toys, rustic items, ceramics, kitchenware, china, collectibles, pottery, vintage jewelry, and so much more. We walked out with a few small items to add to our collections.

Had driven by on the highway but never stopped before. Nice multi vendor facility with a good variety. Very nice staff. Little bit of everything and reasonable prices. Worth a stop every few months of you are a collector or looking for a single piece. Picked up 3 old sleds we like to decorate a house in northern NH

Visiting from out of state and dropped in. The place is clean and well organized. There is a wide variety of antiques and collectibles to suit just about anybody. Most of the prices were reasonable. It is primarily a lot of smalls, with some furniture in the mix.

Selection, Quality & Fun!
Jun 2013 • Solo
This is a great destination stop on the I95 corridor. It is located 1/2 hr from Stamford(mild traffic) & 1/2hr from New Haven. It has tons of interesting cases and floor spaces as large as 20ft across. You can find furniture, furnishings, lighting, antiques, vintage toys & diecast, guns, glass, Jewelry, paintings and much much more. My wife & I frequent this place and new items are always turning up! The proprietors require the dealers to keep the stock fresh and clean. They offer a dealer 10% discount on items over $10 and accept credit cards. ATM is on site and the bathroom is clean! The staff are friendly and never a long wait to get into a case. Plenty of free parking and easy on/off I95 Connecticut Exit 31. (gas station & Duncan Doughnuts around corner)

As other reviewers have said, it is truly Awesome!!
May 2013 • Couples
I love browsing antique malls like this, full of booths each belonging to a different owner. Each one offering such variety- We spent nearly two hours browsing all the stalls. Prices were reasonable and access to the items was also easy. So many places like this you have to ask for a key for every case and finding someone can be difficult, but not here. Many cases were open and if you did need someone, they had people stationed on all sides of the building waiting to assist. When we checked out, we were helped by the coolest guy named Kenny. He asked us where we were from and told us a bit about himself as he wrapped up our items. Nothing like hearing about great bits of history from a friendly local! He even held up the line so he could walk us over to their map, on which all their customers stick a pin on their hometown. I found many treasures and I will most definitely be back the next time I'm in southern CT.

Hassle free browsing and very helpful staff. This is a multi-vendor site and there's a wide collection of vintage clothes, decor and furnishings. We go there monthly to see what's new.

Interesting collection of antiques
Aug 2012 • Couples
This antique center off exit 31 from I-95 is in a large, blue, warehouse-style building that you are likely to drive past. However, inside has an interesting collection of antiques from many vendors. Salespeople can quote you a certain price but if you want lower, they will have to contact the vendor.

AMAZING!!!
Jun 2012 • Solo
This place is HUGE!!! It's a warehouse-sized building with dozens of individual dealers' items for sale. Some of the stuff is over-priced, but there are plenty of good deals to be had...and the center offers various deals for debit/cash transactions, and allows the dealers to provide a lowest price offered for items if you want to negotiate down. Always clean, staff is always helpful...love this place!!
