I was so happy to have a flea market near us as I love going to San Jose for their flea market! The…read morelocation is easy to get to and parking is cheap. The food was great but all the stuff that was being sold was too expensive. Overall, I would go there just to eat but it's not a great flea market.

They liked it better than San Jose's. All to say, the people are so nice, the music was fun, and it felt welcoming. Food options were great and sure, some vendors can sell things at higher prices but that doesn't speak for the majority.

The monthly SODO market hits on all cylinders. Good merchants willing to engage with you, food…read moretrucks, reasonable parking, and the bonus of EPIC. Epic is the antique market that is the building next to the market. I always find good deals and new rings from one of the merchants. The antique market is the usual treasure, give yourself at least an hour to explore all the options. Housewares, outdoor things, and too much to describe. Perhaps Epic will let me do a video walkthrough at some point. Put this market on your calendar, the second Saturday of every month. One more great reason to celebrate living in Seattle. #ShopLocal #shopsmall

Came here May 2022. Most of the reviews are for other years and when I went, the market wasn't too…read moreexciting. I had just come from the Lake Union Saturday Market and compared to the music, amount of vendors, and food trucks there, SODO was quiet and smaller. This one wraps around the antique shop but there was room for three food trucks and a small strip of vendors. There were a lot of people selling re-thrifted clothes. Looked like there were a few gems but you may need to do some digging around, and at that point I may just do my own thrifting. Of course like with any market there are a few quality things worth coming for. I saw a few hanging crystal decorations with moons and stars and I would love to gift one to my niece. The handmade jewelry selections were super cute and very nice quality. There are some of the same looking stuff throughout vendors though so really walk the tents through before making a purchase.

It's better than a lot of other second-hand stores I've been to that overprice literally everything in the place. I saw some items I hadn't seen in a while, and there was ample things to look through, including some old video game accessories I hadn't seen in years! While quaint and has a lot of cool things to see, it's still definitely a second-hand store, and has a bit of a grime feel to it. Probably should keep some hand sanitizer at the ready when done. I didn't find anything that called out enough for me to purchase, so I can't speak to the staff or service there. From what I saw though they appeared friendly. Sort of appreciated the old-school nature of the front desk operations. I might be back, but probably infrequently.

They have a huge selection from multiple different vendors in a rather large store. Staging wasn't perfect but the products that they were carrying were amazing and prices that couldn't be beat.

I was greeted by a nice friendly man who gave me some info about the place and pointed out that the majority of the items are in the back rooms. This place is deceptively large. It's a bit messy in the back but there is a little bit of everything here. He also told me some items were new and didn't have prices on them but to ask if I wanted to know. I'd rather have items labeled so I can see if it's a good deal or not. I hate to ask each time I look at an item. Overall, it's a small business in a sus part of Seattle that frankly needs some more legitimate businesses. I even found a cool little Squidward stuffie that I purchased. I'll be back one day to check it out again.

As you walk through the store there is a room which often has 90's jams on. This room has more clothing and on the left side there are kids toys and sometimes bikes. It does feel like an estate sale/goodwill outlet vibe as some things are organized but also kinda random. The layout reminds me of a flea market in an another country. Unlike Out of the Closet and Lifelong in which you know the exact price of a record or a vintage binocular here you have to ask. I think this is part of the thrill of the search but also asking yourself how much you want to pay for this. Service is good and staff are chill and laid back. If you're around Lake city I would encourage stopping in. It's a nice refresher from the dated xxx shop next door, drug deals happening outside, and fentanyl slumps you see.

Unfortunately this and every option similar is pretty terrible. Let me save you the time of driving out there. Didn't really find anything that was worth buying. Even if I did there was no great pricing. Kinda wish there were at least some food options, but yeah nothing. Honestly though, with that being said the others I went to were even worse so I give this one props for at least resembling a swap meet.
