stratford antique center

Great way to spend half a day off . My wife and I love visiting this mall . We've been to many others in as many states but always come back to this one . Only super friendly people seem to work here . I guess it's loving your job that does it . Always come home with something . Our 3 kids now own their own homes so give away almost as much as we buy . Never a crowd except weekends and then not bad . Weekdays are the best . Open every day , all year. Plan on spending more than just a couple of hours . Lots to see and possible purchase ?

The antique Center is located close to I95, Multiple kiosks from different venders ie jewlery,home decor, vintage etc. Great finds.

Lots of dealers, some great stuff, some meh, but so much fun to check out what's there! Lots of parking, right off I-95. Buy local!!! Reuse! Have purchased so many gifts for excellent prices, and found lots of treasures.

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.

This large building is filled with the booths of many dealers. There is something for everyone here, and the quality of the antiques is excellent.

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)

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.

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!!

The items you will find in this place are many. The prices right now are pretty good as well.This is a large place and has everything from smalls to huge heavy furniture.The owner and staff are good too.....and they now have roaming help instead of having to look and look for someone to help you get into the locked cases for the smalls.It really is a nice place and I have enjoyed my visits here.

Stratford Antique Center has everything from Art glass, formal porcelains, sterling silver, gold jewelry, fine furniture and pop collectibles, to ephemera, rustic ware, tools, coins, vintage magazines, books and every possible type of antique and collectible! Multiple well lit showcases with glittering items, spacious, well organized floor space and friendly staff make this a MUST stop for everyone! DIRECTLY off I-95 in Stratford, the "Big Blue Building" has it all!

What they call the Big Blue Building is an old warehouse converted about 20 years ago into an indoor antique market. The building is sectioned for each dealer to have a separate area. All sales are taken to one central area for purchase, this is very convenient if you want to buy items from several areas. The antique center is open year round everyday except a few major holidays. Very friendly atmosphere, no rushing, you can spend hours in there browsing. Prices can vary from inexpensive collectibles to pricey antique furniture so it's a good fit for any budget.The location is great, very close to the I 95, easy off and on.
