Cooper City Antique Mall — Local services in Cooper City

I love an antique mall where you can find so many great things all under one roof. The owner rents out space to dealers. When you find something you want just bring it up front and they credit the dealer.

This antique mall is located in a strip mall at the northeast corner of Griffin Road and Palm Avenue in Cooper City. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but step inside the door and prepare to feast on 10,000 square feet of antique, vintage, and mid century delights. I saw art, jewelry, home goods, collectibles, furniture, cameras, lamps ,clothes, toys, holiday decorations, and linens. It is a kind of history of American life over the last 100 years or so.

I combed the aisles several times until I came up with a few small purchases. I left with a divided dish in Royal Rose, my grandmothers China pattern which she gifted to me before she passed. I also found a stamp holder in the same pattern. I couldn't resist a white porcelain bunny that reminded me of my rabbit Hopper. My most exciting find was a small vintage Pyrex casserole dish in the highly collectible turquoise Butterprint pattern. It even had its lid which is difficult to come by. I loved using all of my vintage Pyrex dishes at Easter dinner this year.

I appreciate that they are open on Sunday. They accept credit cards at checkout. I overheard a discount being offered on a large piece of furniture if someone paid cash. They are possibly flexible on prices depending on the item and vendor but not if the items are under $25 as mine all were. I like that they don't make you lock up your purse as has been the case with other antique malls I have visited.

The only awkward thing that happened was a female sales clerk came up to help wrap my China. She remarked on how lovely it was and I started to tell her about how much it meant to me because of my grandmother when I was interrupted by a man barking at her to get back on the sales floor. He spoke to her rudely and I felt embarrassed for her as she slinked off. While this may be a great place to shop, it might not be so great to work here. I hope it was a one off treatment of an employee because otherwise I really liked...

I've been here several times and spent a good chunk of money in total. They have nice stuff but most of their items are way overpriced and a lot are not even antiques or even vintage. I once was there and someone came in to drop items off to be sold and one of the items was a cheap poster from hobby lobby that they accepted. Be aware they do sell stuff that is not antique or vintage and put a big price tag. I've also tried to get a price reduction on items that have been there for a long time. Like a cup that was 30 dollars has been there for 6 months and they said I could not contact the seller to ask for a price myself! Even though they go by separate booths with different sellers. And I have been there before when a seller has handed me their card to contact them. I feel that was extremely unreasonable. If the seller denied it then I would have been perfectly fine. Not pushed further but they didn't even allow me to ask the seller of the item.... If I had a booth there I would be extremely upset that the owners or people working there day-to-day don't give a customer my business contact for inquiries on my booth. Not going here anymore and I don't recommend it. The people are rude and they don't operate fairly...

If I could give this place less than one star, I would. This was the worst experience I’ve ever had at an antique store. From the moment we arrived—two women and a child—the owner looked at us with disgust and disdain. Her attitude was horrible, almost as if she was bothered by the fact that we spoke Spanish. She even made an unpleasant comment about how she couldn’t be at ease because of the child, as if his presence was an annoyance to her.

What the owner didn’t realize is that we don’t just speak Spanish—we speak five languages. Her assumptions and rudeness were not only offensive but incredibly unprofessional. The entire store was disorganized and messy, and the owner’s attitude was just as unpleasant. Her behavior made us feel truly unwelcome and was incredibly disheartening, especially for those of us who speak Spanish and bring children into a space meant for everyone to enjoy.

Avoid this place if you’re looking for a positive, inclusive shopping experience—it’s a disappointment on every level. The worst...
