With 65+ dealers and over 10,000 sq ft of antiques to peruse, the Shrewsbury Antique Center is a must-visit for anyone interested in vintage shopping.
Located in historic Shrewsbury, the Antique Center has three floors to explore, filled with home goods, furnishings, decorations, knick-knacks, and so much more.
As a part of the historical village district of Shrewsbury—a part of the National Register of Historic Places—the Antique Center is the perfect destination for quality vintage treasures.

Hours: Thursday–Tuesday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM (closed Wednesdays)
(Fun fact: The Shrewsbury Antique Center began as a chicken coop and was retrofitted into a sewing factory before becoming home to over 60 of the area’s best antique dealers!)
Dover Antique Mall: New Finds with Every Visit
Voted 2023 “Best of York and Hanover” by the Official Community Choice Awards, the Dover Antique Mall is home to 130 vendor booths covering 27,000 sq ft of real estate!
The Dover Antique Mall came to be when the owners of the Dover Area Animal Hospital located next door realized the old Goods Furniture Building was to remain vacant. They realized the facility would be the perfect place to help their father sell some of his unique “collection” that he’d acquired over the years.
Since its humble beginnings in 2012, the Dover Antique Mall now sells everything from antiques to vintage, coins, glassware, collectibles, decor, toys, upcycled products, handmade goods, and more. And all are welcome.
With wide, clean aisles and an elevator to the second floor, the Dover Antique Mall is accessible by wheelchair and power scooter!
Hours: Wednesday, Thursdays, and Sundays from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Fridays and Saturdays from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM (closed Mondays and Tuesdays).
Yesteryear Antique Center of Hanover: An Antique Mall Beloved by Local Pickers

The mall features 140+ booths and cases over a 26,000 sq ft floor plan. Inside, you’ll find a collection of unique antiques, collectibles, coins, furniture, glassware, trains, postcards, linens, books, jewelry, toys, ephemera, clocks, dealer supplies, records, sports memorabilia, and more.
Renowned as a Top Three finalist for the 2026 “Best of York and Hanover,” the Yesteryear Antique Center of Hanover is not to be missed.

American Daydream Antiques: Specialty Store for Vintage Pop Culture Icons
If you love American Vintage—and especially 80s pop culture—American Daydream Antiques is for you.
Swing by to find a constantly rotating collection of vintage vinyl, comic books, VHS, MCM, toys, horror, books, and magazines, and more.
While definitely a specialty store as compared to the others on this list, you can first swing by their Facebook page for a taste of what you’ll find.

All That Antiquing Is Sure to Make You Hungry!
You’ve got to admit. After a good day of picking, nothing hits the spot like a traditional Pennsylvania Dutch lunch. And since you’ll be in the area, why not swing by The Markets at Shrewsbury?
Our vendors are always happy to serve you with some delicious Amish delights. (Can you say authentic German Pretzels, made-from-scratch baked goods, or maybe a Salad Shack panini?) Not to mention some friendly conversation.
After you’ve had your lunch, you can carry on with your antiquing expedition or stick around The Markets for your weekly in-season fruits and veggies from Glick’s Farm, freshly butchered meats from Country Style Fresh Meats, or any needed bulk foods from Trailside.
Either way, our 18 Amish vendors will be thrilled to see you and hear all about your shopping adventures.
