If you're familiar with antique malls, you already know the scheme of things - booths and cases leased by an assortment of vendors with a mix of merchandise. It seems like whenever I visit, there are always new vendors (or the old ones mix up the space a bit) and it keeps me interested for hours. \nI appreciate the shopping tools that they offer (maps, carts, and buzzers by the front showcases to call for assistance) but really like the American Way Cafe'. Tasty sandwiches ,salads, coffee, and vintage pop flavors to nosh on when you need a break from shopping, or else just a cute place to meet for lunch. Some vegan options as well but I am craving that Cuban Club right now...!\nAs some have previously mentioned, wait times to check out can be laboriously long. In such a large store with so many vendors, it is to be expected. I'm glad that other people are finding treasures and hope that I don't get the stink eye when I'm checking out with 20 LP's and a small mountain of jewelry."^^ . . "1"^^ . "0"^^ .
