We stumbled upon Historic Grounds Coffee while we were in town for a week as it was nearby where we…read morewere staying. I wish we had tried their coffee earlier during our stay because we would've come in every day (they were unexpectedly closed the day we first tried to come in due to the espresso machine having issues)! Everyone in my party tried something from their specials menu which seem to change pretty frequently. I am not even a matcha person but their banana pudding matcha was AMAZING. We still managed to enjoy their beverages a couple of times during our trip because we just had to squeeze one last visit before leaving town.

We were greeted warmly by a nice gentleman at the counter who asked if we had visited before. We hadn't so he was kind enough to hand us a seasonal menu of their coffees and made some recommendations. Inside, the place is busy but full of little nooks where you can read a book or magazine with a bit more privacy. We'll be returning on our next visit to Beaufort.

I will not be back in to this vendor antique mall. Which I'm sure they won't be upset about either…read more I was ignored from the time I walked in until the time I walked out. I was going to buy something, but learned all I needed to learn when I asked for the bathroom key. They couldn't even acknowledge me as a human, make eye contact, hand me the key, or direct me towards the bathroom. Bathroom was clean, so there was that. I was planning on spending about $150, nothing insane. But after that interaction, I left. These people are rude. I could speculate on why they were, but that would make me no better than them.

She told me she was retired and loves her job here because she adores antiques! This shop carries many of the same antiques as their sister store but also has a large selection of toys and collectibles. The milk glass and jade glass is gorgeous! I also saw some hurricane lamps and oil lamps that caught my Eye. I loved the whimsical metal crown I found, as I am the Queen of Everything! Lol! My take home bundle included a cool teacup planter, a Scrabble souvenir of Beaufort and some delicious smelling gift soaps. If you are in the market for vintage furniture, retro toys, Pyrex, Corning Ware, figurines or that one of a kind antique, Marketplace is the place to shop!

The rooms in this house were filled with majestic furniture, primitive hutches, side tables inlaid with mother of the pearl, loads of cane, rattan, ladder, Hitchcock, and corner chairs. Other rooms are stocked with artwork, frames and lamps. Another nook had tons of crocks, old vintage bottles and glassware. We saw some Quimper plates, Lenox China, Fiestaware, cookie jars, and stoneware. The glass cases were lined with shelves of jewelry, hatpins, figurines and knickknacks. (Don't get sticker shock from the tags, some of the items are reasonable, but many are pricey). As you negotiate the somewhat rickety steps to go upstairs, you'll find more rooms with rugs, textiles, linens, looms and bed frames. The front second story room window was decorated with beautiful stained glass and designed with wicker furniture. I was transported back to another time as I walked the hallways of this beautiful home and imagined what life was like when this house was occupied in the 1800s. The fireplaces were now filled with antiques, and the mantles were lined with candlestick for collectors. The creaky floorboards made me smile, who else had tread on these old floors? Perhaps the were filled with dancers and tea parties. The man who was tending the store, was somewhat of a antique himself, but was just as nice as he could be. His slightly gruff exterior was overshadowed by his country accent and welcoming hand. "Well, if you're gonna come in, hurry on up.", he said. As we left he bid us goodbye and we said that we'd sure to come back next time we passed this way!!

The larger antiques, like the classic Leather chairs, chandeliers and furniture are along the walls so there is an open spacious feel to this store. The artwork is tastefully displayed. In one corner stands a majestic, cream colored baby grand piano (see pic) which can be yours for a pretty penny. It's striking. In another nook, there's a library of vintage books for sale and the tops of the shelves are lined with Steiff bears and and other collectibles. In the center of the shop is a rack of vintage coats, both men's and women's. And in the other window some lovely jewelry pieces might catch your eye. Most of the prices are reasonable, some are a tad high, but all in all this is a unique antique experience. One of the owners is a writer herself, and her books are also displayed. She and her husband were very helpful and knowledgeable. She informed us that they will also ship items at cost. The outside of the shop is just as inviting as the inside, dotted with planters, flower pots and shells. We left with our bundle neatly wrapped and enjoyed our visit to Downton Antiques.
