What's New? Located…read morein a 1927-era building that once housed the "Carmel Canning Company warehouse #2," and was granted "Historic Structure" status by the City of Monterey in 1994, one year before the Antique Mall opened in June '95. This place is by far my favorite antique store in the Bay Area, as its 21,000+ sq ft of floor space and two floors are occupied by over 100 different merchants selling everything from modern art and jewelry to old toys and abundant knickknacks. The only issue with this place is the parking situation, which can be a bit of a hassle, especially on weekends. Fortunately, it's a bit removed from the more popular Cannery Row area and on the opposite side of the Aquarium, so while it may be difficult, it's not impossible. Otherwise, come forth and feast your eyes on the treasures to behold. Just make sure you give yourself at least two hours to take it all in, or you're going to miss out on some interesting finds.

I had some time to kill today while my husband was in a conference and I saw this antique mall when…read morewe were walking to dinner last night. It's not unlike any other antique mall across the US, small stalls, probably owned by individuals that pay rent to have their merchandise seen. I spent about 20 minutes in there and saw everything on both levels. Found a few things that were priced decently. The people ringing customers up or friendly and efficient. Parking is street parking and it is metered. Tax is higher than I anticipated. My total was $45 before tax and over $49 in the end.

Sad there are no negatives... If there were, there is NOTHING All American about this place. Never,…read morein all my years in lovely Monterey, was I treated so rudely over the phone when I asked about selling an item! John said that person's IQ [who's item I inquired about] was so low, completely disparaging her, he couldn't stop his vitriol ... He said that he was a Democrat, and continued to rant and rage... I said, that I was glad I called before visiting, and would definitely not patronize his shop, nor recommend his hatred and anger to any unsuspecting visitor. Very sad and disappointing...

Doing some thrifting Saturday afternoon in Pacific Grove…read more Stopped in at the Treasure Shop for a look. I've been here a couple of times before so I know it's a clean well organized shop. The help at the checkout is polite and respectful. Prices are good and the specials make it a great deal. Last words...the hunt, it's real!

My partner and I love establishments like this, so we immediately had to go in. Upon entering,…read morethere's a large selection of clothing and accessories. The back room was much bigger, displaying furniture, art pieces, room decor, books, toys, and other trinkets. All the items were fairly-reasonable priced, and the cashier was very friendly.

Just see the video; it speaks volumes...er, shows volumes.

Senses overload! In a good way. For me this is a great way…read moreto end my day of thrifting. But this large shop ( 2 stores) is much more than thrift. It's history, memories and a learning experience all together. Things are put together nicely with some order. They have a nice outdoor space with things that will work for your garden area. Inside, no way I could name most of the categories they deal in. The couple on the floor were both attentive and willing to help. Grove Emporium is a fantastic resource for that old timer who has everything. Prices are in range for sure. Last words... find it here.

Beautiful products as gifts, such as necklaces, books, hats, cultural crafts, handmade gifts, unique jewelry, locks, bags, pouches, art, souvenirs, etc. Great value. Good service next door. Views are spectacular inside and outside. Small narrow space, but perfect for a unique gift shop. Decent value. Shop ends at the stairwell in back. Highly decorated at every shelf and angle. I really liked all the colorful items and designs I see. There's definitely variety here, especially if you want to buy a specific gift for someone. Next door is also an art gallery boutique. Beautiful place with beautiful vibes. Must love. I like browsing around the store whenever I'm waiting for my coffee and pastries or breakfast sandwich next door. Friendly and welcoming environment with lots of great things to see. I will definitely revisit in future.

This event is loosely called Antiques and Vintage Market. Upon visiting today there weren't more…read morethen a handful of vendors, most selling junk at extremely high prices, and from what I heard going on, the vendors were not willing to barter. I also didn't see a bathroom anywhere on the grounds. Bad move. Plus, there were dogs everywhere going to the bathroom and most owners just left the dogs mess and walked on, one dog in particular, was obviously sick as he was trailing behind his owner coughing, sneezing and having diarrhea as they walked around the stalls. The owner was completely oblivious and left all the dog's feces lay and walked away. With dog flu running rampant in our area right now this poor animal was probably contagious and all other dogs who came in contact with him or the little gifts he left behind are now ill as well. Just horrible. This is truly not an event I would ever visit again. Such an extreme disappointment.

First market in August 2014 was pretty good. Interesting seller mix and decent prices. Probably a…read morefew too many sellers from local antiques stores (hi prices) and not enough indie sellers and 'junkers' ready to make some good deals. A few booths had new cr@p pretending to be antiquities--those definitely need to go. Hope the mix will evolve in the months ahead. And also hope the organizers will get the food and toilet situations up to par. Those make a difference for shoppers. Monterey needs a market like this so I hope improvements are made and buyers show up with ca$h!
