Crowded with antiques in rather disorganized, dusty/dirty spaces. Be careful- the floors are uneven. The proprietor was an interesting character with quite a sense of humor. Found a treasure to take home so overall an enjoyable, successful visit.

One of those old-school antique stores that isn’t curated with booths rented out to vendors. So there a lot of dusty knickknacks and not much of substance. If you like rummaging through tiny aisles of trash to potentially find treasure, maybe worth a stop. But there are so many better options in town - Sweeten Creek, Screen Door, etc.

Website shows completely different pictures than what we saw when enticed by “ upscale antiques”....very disappointed in flea market merchandise and left after quick walkthrough...at least put actual pictures of shop and don’t use word upscale!Don’t waste your time...

What a great place to spend the day looking at peoples art and creations. There is a great BBQ place there as well, so you can spend a full day there.

I just want to give the utmost kudos to Antiques at Riverside Station, especially to Lisa Biggs, the owner. i visited over spring break and came across a beautiful book on art in the Louvre. i was not thinking, and decided not to buy it... a decision i deeply regretted. i called the shop up, and Lisa went out of her way to find the book and send it to me here in Virginia. thank you so so much!!!!

This place has almost any thing you may want, even has some real antiques. I love it every time I go. I always find something to buy. It has a Campbells Soup cookie jar that I hope is still there when I go back. Go visit, youll be glad you did if you like antique stores like I do.

Hands down worst customer service I’ve ever experienced, neither of them had a mask on and they were very rude. They had literally nothing worth buy and every single thing was over priced, DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME HERE !!

Loved visiting here while vacationing. Lots of real antiques and collectibles to dig through. The other antique shops we visited in town had too much vintage (not antiques) and new-made-to-look-old stuff. Antiques At Riverview Station is the real deal when it’s time to go junkin’ for antiques!

Ok, currently looks nothing like the pics. A mismatch of .... I cant even call it junk, but I cant think of a lesser term.However, overall has a higher rating, and pics seem better than when I visited. Maybe this was just a bad season when I visited???Please feel free to judge for yourself with this one.

My husband and I absolutely love this place! So many neat little finds. Fair prices. It’s a little bigger than we anticipated so we easily spent several hours here looking at all of the cool antiques. We wound up finding a deck of British playing cards from WW2 as well as American rifle cleaner from WW2. It’s a little warm here in the summer but they have plenty of fans. Plus they have some pretty cool music playing also! We definitely will return!

Absolutely love Antiques @Riverview Station. My husband and I purchased a chest of drawers today and its in fantastic shape and we got a good price. On top of the greats finds there are some sweet people running the place.

A wonderland of rusted gold and timeless memories are stored here. You could spend hours looking through all the stuff and find everything you want, unless your looking for a Lance cookie jar 😂 the owner is a book of knowledge and has the perfect amount of wit and dry humor to keep things interesting!

This is one of the now-typical indoor antique stores, with many small booths each stocked by individuals. Mostly junk, a few decent items. Dimly lit, cramped and unmanned except for a clerk at the front. Not my favorite place, but Im not a collector. I was hoping for more furniture and good quality classic pottery. There is some, but not much.

ABSOLUTELY APPALLING EXPERIENCE. I called ahead and asked if they’d look at an antique flatware set and when I got there, there was a closed sign on the door. I called to ask if they were open and he said he didn’t feel well and was going home. I started to say ‘’well I’m standing outside of the door (just to ask if he wanted to take a quick look) and was very pleasant about it but he cut me off saying ‘’you can come in and I can give you my sickness and you can go home sick too’’. Not in a joking manner either but very angrily’’. And still I was pleasant and said ‘’well I hope you feel better’’ but before I finished my sentence he had hung up on me. I don’t care how sick you are... that is no way to talk to someone, much less a customer. I’d even called ahead. And to add insult to injury I watched him walk out chatting with a young lady and not looking sick at all (strictly opinion of course... but the rest is fact). Will never return.

Awesome. Full of crazy and fascinating stuff. Like those great old places you used to find with any and everything. Digging is a ton of fun there. Wear your old clothes, and prepare to get a little bit dirty. So worth it.

A great antique mall. The variety is incredible. Be prepared to spend some time here. Walt and Lisa are very kind and helpful. I give this Shop a thumbs up.

What an eclectic and fun store to stroll and bring back memories. Everything from functional antiques to projects for repurposing and reuse. Owner is very friendly and willing to bargain to move things out the door. Picked up a really cool 1965 bicycle to work on and restore.

There were some technical antiques (100+ years old), the majority if items were vintage, and some were not even that. Neat place to look around, and there were several Wagoner cast iron pieces.

Grumpy Old Man evidently runs this place.I asked him several questions and he was very Curt. They close at 5:00pm, but he closed the doors and cut out the lights at 4:30pm. 🤔I personally just dont like going to places like this when people running it have such a bad attitude .Very dissatisfied

The main section was a jumbled mess. Things stacked on top of each other. We love looking at so many things but it was so jumbled it was difficult to see what was what. If you want to spend a few hours Im sure there are deals to be had. The two guys sitting near the front were very friendly.
