We wanted to check out some antique or vintage shops/malls in Mount Dora area a little after the…read moreholidays. This was one of the locations that came up - the antique center does have stalls open during the week aside from the outdoor market they have outside the facility on Sundays. Similar to some of the other antique malls or multi-stall stores I've been to, there are different stalls that are rented out by different vendors that sell different items. Depending on when you visit, some may not be open for business and will be roped off or have signs saying when they will be open next. We did go when some folks were still off for the holidays, which resulted in a handful of closed stalls, but a good number of the locations were open to wander and shop. Some of the stalls sell vintage and retro items and others like the large toy/doll stall on one of the ends sell deadstock collectible items. I think there's something there for everyone - I saw booths for books, dolls, collectibles, old wartime items, jewelry, and home decor. Pricing does vary for each of the booths and items. Some may run some deals and they will have signs to call out what is on sale in their booth. I did not purchase anything, but I believe if the owner of the booth is not present, you can go to one of the desks throughout the center and ask the folks working there to assist with purchases or for unlocking locked cabinets to see something. There was a decent amount of parking when I went, but if you do go during the outside market on Sundays, I suspect you'd want to go early to get a spot.

Although I don't purchase if they don't haggle a bit. I understand they are trying to make money but the haggling is part of the experience. Also, just take their 10% off make them call the sellers and see I purchased two lamps that they wanted $495 for two I got for 200 when they said that they would never accept anything less than the 10% / 20% discount. Again I do enjoy the walkabout that antique smell is definitely there and most of the people are very friendly and interesting to talk to.

The food vendors here offer some amazing good. Here you will find some of the best representations of Latin food. Whether it be tacos, pupusas or so many other types of food, it is not only represented here, but that representation is stellar. I would definitely recommend a visit here to try some of this stellar food.

While you are at it, there is tons of authentic Mexican delicacies such as aguas frescas, mangonadas, pupusas, tacos de birria, shops, jewelry, plant shops and more. I have tried several food spots in here but I have to say my new favorite is going to be Pollos Asados al Carbon. To start off, the owner treats you like family, jokes around with you, the music choice is mainly ranchera music, which makes me feel like I am back home in my hometown of Monterrey Mexico. The chicken is well cooked on the grill right in front of you. I swear I thought I was with my friends having a cook out with everyone just having a good time. They bring it to your table, the 1/2 chicken comes with rice and beans for 2 and salad, cebollita, chile asado, and they supply a homemade salsa that tastes so incredibly authentic. I am serious I was impressed about how good the food was. You will not regret this spot, it checked all my boxes.

The only thing my son ended up finding was a little sign about Labradors (we have one, so that was a fun find). Other than that, most of the merchandise felt like inexpensive knickknacks, and we didn't see much that interested us. We also paid $5 to park, which surprised us given our overall experience. I'm glad we checked it out so we could see it for ourselves, but it's not somewhere I would go back to. Honestly, there is nothing interesting t this flea market. They do have food trucks but nothing great.

Hello, My family and…read moreI had a very disappointing experience at one of the booths at Travelers Flea Market. The booth was located in the last aisle on the opposite side of the building from the food truck area, across from the shirt vendor. There were two men and a woman running the booth. One of the men led the game, while the other sat in the corner holding a large amount of money, occasionally showing it and saying it would be given out "when we win." The woman kept going back and forth through a door across the hall. The booth featured a ball-rolling game that the attendants used to attract people. We were repeatedly told that "everyone wins" and that we couldn't lose as long as we kept playing. However, the rules and the financial commitment were not clearly explained before we started. As the game continued, the amount required to keep playing increased whenever certain numbers came up. We felt pressured to continue because we had already invested money and were repeatedly told we were just one step away from winning. Before long, the amount needed to continue became far more than we ever expected. What concerned me most was how the game behaved. The balls felt unusual in the shaker cup, and when rolled onto the board they did not seem to move naturally. I can't say exactly why that happened, but the outcomes repeatedly landed on numbers that increased the amount we had to pay. Whether that was intentional or not, it left us feeling that the game was not operating fairly. I'm not writing simply because we lost money. I understand that games involve risk. I'm sharing this because the way the game was presented felt misleading, and it left us with a very negative impression of the experience. I hope this feedback is taken seriously so that other families don't have a similar experience.

I recommend setting aside at least 45 minutes to an hour to explore--there's so much to see, and they even have restrooms available for customers so you can take your time. The shop features a wide range of vintage and antique items from multiple vendors. Some standouts include a stunning Hand-Carved Carousel Rocking Horse ($2,495), a rare 1880s Wm. L. Gilbert Clock Co. calendar clock ($1,250), an Italian Baroque Secretary ($695), and an Antique Wooden Butter Churn ($375). I also spotted a beautiful 55-piece Harkers Petit Point set ($95), hand-made necklaces ($25-$65), vintage Christmas ornaments, a working vintage pump organ ($175), and a large collection of antique train sets. There's far too much to cover, so trust me when I say--this place is a must-see. The staff here are exceptionally friendly and went out of their way to wrap up my mom's purchases for her flight home. The store is immaculately clean, with well-organized booths and aisles, making it easy to navigate. While most items are easy to spot, be sure to check under shelves and in hidden corners for more treasures; I found several instruments in their original cases tucked away in one booth. For music lovers, there's a booth with a solid selection of rock CDs in like-new condition for just $10 each. Book enthusiasts will appreciate the vintage collections available, like Edgar Allan Poe's Poems and Tales from 1898 ($60) and an older edition of A Christmas Carol ($30), many of which are behind glass cases and require assistance to view. I also found two music books that were great deals: Fun Folk & Frolic Songs for Piano ($2) and John Philip Sousa's Favorite March Book for Bass ($4)--both of which I'm excited to use for practicing music. Pricing varies by item and vendor. Some pieces are reasonably priced, while others are on the pricier side. Each seller has a booth number, and if they're not on-site, the staff will help you contact them for potential price negotiations. However, most prices seem firm, though it never hurts to ask. Whether you're a local or just visiting, The Coop Antiques is a hidden gem that offers something for everyone. I highly recommend stopping by to explore and find something special.
