Cute place had some good finds but this is the second time coming here and staff wasn't warm and welcoming in my opinion.

The reason I went was for coins they had some but not what i was looking for

Cool place with lots of collectables, coins, antiques, dollhouse parts, vinyl records, and pokemon cards (if you are into that sort of thing). The staff here is friendly and helpful.

I go to Franklin's Antique Mall every time I'm in New Bern. We always buy something as well. Great people and excellent inventory. I highly recommend!

UPDATE: OWNERS RESPONSE CAUSED THE RATING TO GO FROM A 2 TO A 1. OWNERS CAN CONTACT GOOGLE TO HAVE MULTIPLE LISTINGS REMOVED. I HOPE THE OWNER LEARNED AS MUCH AS I DID FROM THIS EXPERIENCE. GOOGLE RESPONSES THAT ARE PERCEIVED TO BE FALSE OR VINDICTIVE CAN BE REPORTED BY THE OWNER TO HAVE THEM REMOVED.Bad customer greeting. Customer service represents the store and the many vendors who pay rent and 10% sellers fee. We were walking in the store and talking about reproduction items while simultaneously looking at a vintage wood shelf at the entrance. Assuming we were talking about the wood shelf the employee stated, loud enough for me to hear, but to herself the shelf was not a reproduction. She never took the time or courtesy to clarify our comment content. I let the comment slide but it wasn't enough for her, as I was at the front of the store she moved the shelf and stated " let me move the reproduction shelves" for me to hear once again. I'm glad she took the time to audibly correct me for her misrepresentation of my personal conversation. As hopefully she felt better, I left defeated not for me, but for the vendors. One clarification question on her part would of solved her misconception, I would of made my $65 purchase for a tobacco advertisement, and the rating that represents the vendors would be higher than a two. The booths were nice and tidy, there were some reasonable prices.

We used to visit the store allot and haven't been in the last year or so. I enjoy looking at items from the past. So many we had or remember. So, my friend and I were doing a girls day out and stopped in. It has really changed. Has a new lay out. Different types of items for sale, not just antiques. I enjoy visiting the birds.

So many little knick knacks and antiques. It's like something out of an "I spy" book. Always love coming here just to see what's new. The outdoor plant section is inviting as well

We made a quick walkthrough while at the Great River Raft Race. Your typical layout with lots of different vendors. They have some local foods and then a sweeta bar up front which is cool and unique for a antique mall. Easy to get in, nice cool AC. Was a nice quick get away.

This is a great antique shop. Wonderful spot to browse. Multiple sellers with booths. You can take your time and you are sure to find a treasure. I found a new shoe for my collection. This one is brass. The staff person was friendly. They do have a restroom on site. It was fairly clean. They have a large paved parking lot, which is not usual in this part of New Bern. Highly recommend if you like antique/flea market type stores.

Stop what you're doing and plan a trip to Franklin's! I've collected actors for the last 16+ years, been in oh so many shops - Franklin's is in my top 5!The staff is SO friendly, offers to take your treasures up front so you don't have to try to hold everything. The shop is clean, and set up well.Obviously in antique shops inventory changes but these dealers are good at what they do and find amazing finds!! There is true acntiques here and fun vintage items plus gorgeous new home decor/furniture and some food items. Oh and beautiful plants!! Such a great mix! Can't wait till my next trip, and until then I'll rock my Franklins shirt and represent!!
