Antique enthusiasts will admit: antiquing is more than a hobby - it's almost a sport. A good day of antiquing is fun, rewarding, and if things go well, very productive! There's nothing more satisfying than finding that perfect bargain buy, it's the best reward for your hard work of digging and patience. Fortunately, South Carolina is home to hundreds of antique stores and at least a couple dozen antique "malls." Malls are typically much bigger than a quaint antique shop and also offer a variety of vendors and price points. To that end, there's one massive and incredibly unique antique mall just off Interstate 26 between Columbia and Spartanburg. And it's totally worth the trip all the way across the state to get there - if you happen to live that far away. We're talking about Little Mountain Unlimited, which might just be the best antique mall in South Carolina. Let's take a closer look.
It's located in the tiny town of Little Mountain, SC, population: 296.
This amazing antique mall just celebrated its 12th anniversary on February 11, 2020.
And it's a good bet that during their anniversary event there were more people IN THE STORE at any given time, than live in the whole town of Little Mountain.
That's because this hidden gem with 2,100 dedicated Facebook followers really kicks it up a notch.
And by "it," we mean everyday business, not just anniversaries.
For starters, they have 25,000 square feet of the best antique and vintage merchandise anywhere.
You'll find anything from $5 collectibles to $5,000 antique dining sets.
And...a few other unexpected blasts from the past -- like this Underwood typewriter that still has the ribbon!
Glassware, crystal, silver serving items and...
in season, locally-grown veggies!
Little Mountain Unlimited even has a cafe inside the antique mall.
The Antique Mall Cafe is open from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and serves lunch and coffee.
Arrive on the right day and you might be pleasantly surprised with live music during your lunch!
Little Mountain Unlimited is the perfect destination antique mall where you can score fun vintage finds and have lunch while you browse this massive place.
