One has to have actual antiques to call themselves the largest ANTIQUE mall. This place is horrible. All junk with a tiny amount of real antiques thrown in.

It is large, and they have a bit of everything, but everything is way overpriced. Was disappointed and left empty handed

Marketed as 'THE' LARGEST antique malls in America. Recommended: Easily! Absolutely mesmerizing in size. Do not, repeat, DO NOT leave the front counter without a map! The sheer volume of items, booths, and memorabilia is astounding. Highly recommend, only if you have a couple hours... Just enormous variety here.

Decided to visit when nearby and was not disappointed. Truly the largest antique mall I've ever been to and it's still growing! Walking just the perimeter of the building took me 2 hours. (granted i did a fair share of digging) The cafe had some pretty good lunch specials and was the perfect place for a refresh mid shop. Some overpriced items but also some steals. Was able to get a few really cool vintage cameras. Overall if you enjoy wandering and happen to find yourself nearby this will definitely keep you busy.

Huge, well organized, orderly, clean. Lots of glassware, dishes, china and other antiques. Well worth a walk around.

This place is huuuuge. We spent a little over 3 hours here and struggled to see even a third of it, probably less. The booths are typical Mid-Atlantic antique mall fare, but the sheer number of vendors multiplies the chances of finding something you can't live without. Don't miss the snack bar - much better than you'd expect.

Huge place so I really enjoyed spending several hours investigating every nook and cranny. So much fun stuff her. Had a delicious egg salad sandwich with my niece. Hope to visit again in a couple years.

I found the Factory Antique Mall online from a search for interesting and unique places to visit in Virginia. It is advertised as the largest antique mall in America. You say the largest antique mall in America? Challenge accepted!!! We visited for the first time in June 2022. We set aside one whole day on our way home from our Virginia road trip. First of all, the drive here was beautiful. It is sort of out in the middle of nowhere, but the scenery on the drive here was lovely. There is lots and lots of parking when you arrive. There was a small display of yard sculptures in the front of the building. The building doesn't look so big from the front - but just wait until you get inside. Once inside, the Factory Antique Mall is just huge. You think that you are almost finished when you turn a corner and then there is another whole huge section that you couldn't see from the entry. We ended up spending our entire day here shopping and browsing. We shopped until lunch, then we went out to get lunch (because the in store restaurant was closed for vacation) and then came back and shopped for hours and hours. There is a Wendy's and convenience store in walking distance. Both me and my partner found items of interest here. We spent about $75 on a number of small items, mostly things that we put right into use in our home. So this is why I am giving four stars instead of five stars. There is a lot of stuff in this building that is antique and there is a lot of stuff in here that is brand new. All of the stuff that we bought here was great stuff but none of it was actually antique. We bought 4 pieces of new Fiestaware, a new Waterford crystal vase, some fidget magnets, a Ravensburger puzzle, some handmade scented soaps, I am sure that I am forgetting something but yeah. Great stuff, great prices, but there is a lot of stuff that isn't antique. I collect a lot of antiques and while they do have a lot of antiques I didn't find anything I wanted that was actually old or antique. I'm not saying this to bash the place because I actually loved it but I just want anyone that travels here to have the proper expectations. I also have one other small gripe and that is the amount of politically incorrect stuff that I saw in some of the vendor booths. I could have done without seeing that sort of stuff. Okay I am done ranting on this. Management maybe you might want to speak to your vendors about cleaning up what they are selling a bit. My suggestion to anyone planning to visit is that you should come the the Factory Antique Mall expecting antiques as well as a lot of cool and desirable brand new items. The mix is probably 50% antiques and 50% new stuff. That being said this place is very well organized. The have one booth of just new Fiestaware. One whole booth of just Tupperware. One whole booth of crystals and chakra stones. One whole booth of lawn sculptures. A whole booth of just vintage and new board games. One whole booth devoted to Blenko glass. A huge booth that is all glass and crystal tableware and stemware. One booth of all handmade soaps. One whole booth was devoted to hinges and handles and stuff to restore your antique furniture. They have a huge building full of all sorts of furniture, some of it was antique and some of it was just used furniture. I can go on and on. I wish that I had taken some photos but unfortunately I did not take photos. My last comment is that while they do have bathrooms they are a bit out of date, I don't know how else to say it nicely. And the average person will spend enough time in this antique mall so that they will end up using the bathrooms. The staff that waited on us were very friendly and personable. Thank you for reading this if you get this far! I loved my visit to the Factory Antique Mall.

So much to see. So much to do. So little time! The nostalgia feels are real in here. Always something for everyone.

There is a huge variety of items for sale and the prices are very reasonable. It is fun to just go and look but this is also a place that likely would have whatever you might be searching for.

Amazing items throughout the store. Come prepared to spend several hours exploring. Also, have a list of items in mind because you will easily get sucked in and forget why you came. My only critique is that it would be nice if maps were available to direct you to specific booths based on things available. Coins, clothes, light fixtures...

Read Closely- Warning, NOT Ethnic Friendly or Safe I really hate writing reviews such as this, however it is important for people to read about experiences such as this. I decided to drop by during a normal Thursday. I have heard so much about the size, collection, and good prices. As a true antique hunter and picker, needless to say I was very excited. The store itself was impressive in size and collection. However, the customer base and even some of the staff are VERY ethnically unfriendly. I encountered a interaction with a middle aged white male customer that was purely based on racism. He literally called me the 'N' word and told me I can't walk pass him in order to browse a booth. He blocked my path and aggressively told me "No, I am not welcomed here". I immediately removed myself from the situation, and politely told him "Have a goood day". When I reported the practically verbal assault and aggressive activity to a staff member to my shock she only laughed and stated "Hun, what do you want me to do about that". So please read this closely. Do not bring your family, do not patron this place and do not give them your money. This environment is NOT racially friendly nor safe. The confrontation could have ended in a physical alteration if I was not a mature black man that understand to turn the other cheek. Don't go there !

This place is SO COOL. It's never ending! I can understand why it's labeled as the largest antique mall in the US. Definitely make sure you leave enough room to spend at least an hour or 2 here. They also have a food court if you need a snack break (:

I have been to many an antique mall and this one may be big but there was nothing that interested me at all. I like vintage costume jewelry, watches, vintage clothing and cocktail shakers and bar stuff, Art Deco and mid century design. Didn't see any of that. A lot of mediocre stuff from the 90s or later. A ton of dishes. Really disappointing. None of my party found anything.
