It’s a classy place, it has an exceptional selection snd variety. It is a bit high priced, in my opinion but you decide for yourself. There is a small cafe for beverages if desired and plenty of staff to keep your needs met and lines moving. Top notch in my opinion, and I’ve been in a lot of antique malls.

They have a lot of variety of things so thats a +. Only real disappointing thing is the pricing of things. Yes I get its an antique mall BUT there are a lot of things that are just ridiculously over priced. Also when waiting in line it takes FOREVER!!! multiple cashiers but no sense of urgency. Just piddling along taking their time while the long line of 15+ people continues to get longer and longer.

An interesting place to look around. Employees are not friendly. The line was at least 30 deep, I posted a picture here of it. They need more registers open. I left without purchasing items I wanted, not worth the ridiculous wait. Social distancing is non existent here.

WOW! This is a fabulous place. One of the biggest antique malls I have visited. Very clean and organized. The staff were efficient and friendly.The quality of merchandise was most impressive. Dealers should get extra points for attractive booth design.The cafe was a bonus since you’ll be here for several hours.I will be visiting this place again!

It was so crowded that day and people not giving notice to masks above nose nor spacing. I was repeatedly knocked down by other people. No common courtesy to other. Staff were superb trying to maintain peace in the buildings as well as keeping commands of corporate responsibility safe.I found many items but could not get them this time around.If you go, I highly recommend you go during the week because a less people more capability of searching thoroughly.

This is one of the biggest, best maintained antique malls you will ever see. I think they say over 750 booths. Very clean. The staff is very, very friendly and helpful. They told us there is an automatic discount for items tagged over $20. The staff will also facilitate negotiations if you want to make an offer on an item. Lots of free parking on site. I believe that everything was all on the ground floor.

This antique store is huge with lots of cool items. The prices were fair but more on the expensive side. The only thing I was looking for that was a great price were the hammers, axes and crosscut saws were over priced in my opinion.

LOVEEEE THIS PLACE!! Nostalgia at it’s finest.The staff are unbelievably friendly, helpful & experts on the antiques living within the 30,000 square feet.If there is something special or really old you’re hunting for you will find it!!You are able to β€œoffer” a price for anything over $95.00 & it works! One time offer tho, no haggling.If you are buying jewelry you can purchase ring boxes or display pieces.They cafe is delicious. We had a grilled cheese & it was buttery & cheesy! The pies are delicious, treat yourself. :)Most importantly wear TENNIS SHOES!

The most amazing antique/collectibles place Ive ever seen. Out of town for the weekend and had a referral from a friend to check this place out. Well, we were overwhelmed at first. Row after row of amazing merch. Antiques, collectibles, furniture, artwork, coins, jewelry, sports memorabilia, and everything else you could possibly want. Well organized and well staffed. People constantly offering to take your items up to the front so you dont have to carry (and, I suspect, so you lose track of how much stuff you have) but thats OK. I really loved it. And my GF found a complete dish set that her grandmother had that shes been looking to complete for years. Contacted the seller, who took our offer and it was ours. The staff wrapped each piece and boxed it and everything. It was a level of service hardly seen these days. Im a fan. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Very interesting and gigantic antique space, with booth after booth and row after row and cabinet after cabinet of items. Stuff from every era it seemed like, and lots of local Ohio themed stuff. Furniture showroom, many glass cases of smaller items on display, and even some early electric motorcycles/bicycles. Lots of posters and neon signs, several book stalls, prints and art, coins, baseball and sports cards. Good value for the prices on the whole. Lots of fun oddities too. A nice cafe with drinks, plus restrooms. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Worst place ever! Family and I went to go there for a family trip and new experience but we were followed the entire time we were there. Very rude. Asked my brother where he lived???! Uncalled for!

This is the largest antique mall Ive ever visited! Theyve got a great selection, I had a tough time choosing only one item to take home. Be prepared to pay the price of convenience though for having a massive, well curated selection all in one place. Individual dealers are not there to haggle with in person, but you can still put in an offer if you prefer to. Ill absolutely be back again!

The Heart of Ohio Antique Center is not just an antique store, it serves as a historical museum as well. From old bicycles to jewelries to century-old household items, to historical memorabilia, to antique furniture, you would see them all at this antique center. If you have now found what youre looking for at other antique shops, most likely, youd find it here. This mall is huge with many, yes MANY, booths and showcases to explore along its busy, yet organized, aisles. A three-hour visit wont be sufficient to browse the thousands of items they have in this shop, unless you do it very fast.

Review β„–38

Very nice place overall. Huge! The staff is very helpful which makes the center a lot of daunting to take on. They are constantly on patrol offering to take items up front for you while you continue to browse. They are easy to find if you need a case opened and if you have a question. The facility is very clean and the booths appear to be kept up. I assume the center requires regular visits by the booth owners in order to keep items moving and fresh. All and all, a good place to browse and find a unique item or two!

Huge variety of vendors, I mean its over 116,000sq ft! From furniture to toys, and tools, signage, and glassware, youre sure to find it there. Staff is awesome and helpful, prices are very fair (at most vendors. Come on, its antiques. You know how some vendors are) and you can even grab some lunch at the cafe!Every single time Im there I am amazed to see long-time vendors still going strong with new products and new vendors popping up as well!Always make sure youve got time, as its a ton of space, a lot of walking, and so much to see!

This facility is amazing! A must see attraction for this region, the Heart of Ohio Antique Center is the best destination I have ever found for antiques. They have a vast selection of every kind of collectible. Furniture, ceramics, tools, signs, Coca Cola and PepsiCo paraphenallia, farm equipment, records, glassware, camera, and folk art are just some of the categories here. The center is separated into booths that dealers rent and sell items in. They have 8 wings with dozens of booths and countless display cabinets. The staff is welcoming and friendly always happy to chat and help you find things. Take a whole day and wonder end to end in this place. As my dad put it, its like a museum except you can buy the exhibits.

I am an avid antiquer and have antiqued with the best of them. Heart of Ohio is the place to goβ€”the creme de la creme, the big boss, the summit that must be mounted. Simply put, they have everything. Mid century modern. Check. Eighteenth century barber chairs. Yes. Signs galore. Tools and cast iron wares. Fo sure. They are also the rare type of dealer who stands behind jewelry purchases.The music they play is bumpin tunes from the 50s-70s to get you in the mood. They have a food counter with pies and hot dogs, sandwiches and the like. On nice days you can eat out in the courtyard. Even if you dont purchase anything, its worth going just for the assorted oddities like sombrero Jesus, a tasty hot dog statue, or a giant ostrich (not pictured here because it sadly sold).

Review β„–59

Unfortunately, some of the staff (including the senior management) treat paying customers like criminals. Extremely uncomfortable environment. Big Brother is Watching atmosphere from the moment you enter the doors. When I contacted a manager about a problem employee, I was treated very badly. Recently returned after three months -- just to see if there was any improvement. One young staff member was extremely helpful and pleasant, but I was followed by another one -- a skinhead with a pierced ear, who glared and tracked me, always keeping about three feet away. He looked like he carried a blade. There was no mistake -- he was an employee. Creepy beyond belief. Great -- albeit very expensive -- selection of antiques, but this place deserves one star due to the way customers are treated. Youve been warned.

Go there all the time when I have free time. The employees are great, may run into a grumpy vendor here and there but thats anywhere. Can find just about anything your looking for although you will pay a high price. Get 10% over $20 and can make offers over $100. Cool system they have. Can and will find some nice priced items there if you are persistent :) Great place to spend few hours or the day.

I went there today with my brother & nephew & it was my 1st time going but not my last. I am handicap (Ive had 3 back surgeries & a nerve was cut on my last surgery leaving me handicap) & was having a very hard time walking through the place when someone came up & asked me if I would like a motorized scooter to use!!! Since I left mine at home (I didnt know I was stopping here) I quickly said yes. They have a lot of really nice things. I have several pieces of Fenton Glass & I saw quite a few pieces that I would love to have. I also found a fabulous wood & glass cabinet however, I would have to buy a bigger house just to put it in!!! LOL !!! But it was beautiful!!! They have a lot of beautiful older cabinets that are absolutely beautiful & even though theyre antiques, they can definitely go in my modern house. Im redoing my kitchen & I bought a little blue vase that will go on top of my refrigerator. I have another antique store in Cincinnati that I go to a lot, & I will be going to both now

Review β„–84

This place is huge and a feast for the eyes...I found it to be pricey in a lot of ways. I was looking for 1950s linens (in printed tablecloths) and was hard pressed to find any. There were no linen dealers. Some booths were selling not-so-rare Salt & Pepper shakers in the $40 to $70 range. Yikes! Staff is friendly and helpful and always around if you need a case to be opened. Also...there were no Sale prices in any booth! Bottom line...too expensive.

Mi
Review β„–85

Totally enormous with so much to see and discover. However, as a seasoned collector the prices are absolutely on their high end if not outrageous. I also was very upset to see that 75 percent of all of the items were in cases and most of them were poorly displayed without letting you see prices and/or the quality of the item. There are a lot of people walking around and helping which is very nice, but I felt like you were shopping in a place that a collector had amassed a collection over 30 years and finally was going to let go, but only would sell to other collectors at the highest price. For me, I dont think Ill make the long drive to come up here again.

What’s good: Huge selection and seemingly endless booths.What’s bad: I was followed *the entire time* by staff with jingly keys. Literally 10-15 feet behind me for the duration of my visit. There are 3 wings of the store and I left after 1 wing because I was so annoyed. I understand that there are valuables here, but I’m not buying anything when they already think I’m going to steal it.

Heart of Ohio antique Mall is one of the best antique malls I have ever been in. it is so large it literally would take you two days to really look at what they have to offer the public. Such a variety of different antique items that its mind-boggling and sometimes exhausting because there is so much to look at. Everything is priced reasonably and I have bought most of my antique pieces and furniture there since Ive lived in Ohio the last four years. If you havent been to the heart of Ohio antique mall, you really need to go.
