I would rate this antiques "mall" with its numerous vendors as the best I've ever browsed through. I would not label myself as an antiques expert or enthusiast, but this venue has really captured my interest over the years. I make 2 - 3 trips a year to enjoy looking through the immense variety of items in the vendors' stalls and it is well worth the over 2 hour drive that it takes me to get there. This place has something for everyone (china, glassware, household items, light and door fixtures, furniture, stamps, coins, minerals and fossils, jewellery, vintage quilts and linens, books, signs, art, clothing, and so much more). I've noticed that the vendors frequently restock with new items. I always find a special, and sometimes unexpected, but wonderful, item for a gift or to use decorate my home; a unique piece of vintage jewellery; or some item that I or my family have been searching for over the years. Its hard to limit one's purchases with so much to choose from. I find that the prices of most items are excellent and are at least half the cost of the same items at antiques stores in the GTA, which sits well with a limited budget. I love the place as it is so immaculately clean, organized and welcoming. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The quality of the items is such that the china or glassware is free of chips or cracks, unlike other antique stores. Since parking is ample and free, make sure that you leave lots of time to browse through all of the vendors' stalls. I would also say that if you see something that you fall in love with, buy it, because chances are that it will be snapped up quite quickly. If something catches your eye, the staff will gladly put the item on hold behind the main counter while you continue to browse and decide.

Great multi-vendor antique warehouse at the edge of Waterloo. A minute or two's drive away is Waterloo County Antique at 805 King St N Waterloo - a similar type of establishment. Both are stacked full with lots of great vintage, antique & kitsch finds. Plan to spend at least 2 hrs at each - both have free parking & washrooms, but Market Road Antiques also has the Crazy Canuck restaurant, which you will enjoy for a great lunch!
