Vintage clothing, vintage dishes, vintage furnishings, vintage everything is all the rage. One of the best places I can think of to find vintage anything is Old Town Temecula. With over 15 Antique Shops in one location, Old Town Temecula is the ultimate for antique shoppers. Some of the shops on that list of 15 are actually Antique Malls, which house hundreds of antique vendors to shop from. Believe me, if you are into antiques, Old Town Temecula is the place you ought to go.

Now you can find directions and a comprehensive list of all the antique stores in Old Town Temecula in one place, and this Hub is it!

Front Street in Old Town Temecula is jam packed with antique shops for your shopping pleasure.  Smack dab in the center of town is a shop called Old Town Antique Faire.  The Old Town Antique Faire is really a place that several vendors have come to peddle their wares.  There is a central cashier with several friendly workers that know where everything is in the entire place, and that is no small feat.  I have picked up several pairs of vintage sunglasses there, which are my eye wear of choice.  They also have a great selection of glassware and dishes.  One of the unique things about The Old Town Antique Faire is the large selection of antique jewelry they carry.  Take your time and enjoy yourself while you shop at this cute little western themed location.

If you are in the market for antique furniture then Fourth Street Antiques is the place to go.  They have other smaller antique items, but they always have a great selection of hard to find furniture pieces.  This was the place I found my dining room table, and a very large antique buffet to go with it.  Fourth Street Antiques has wrought iron works, and other home furnishings that will make you drool! 

The Country Porch is a store that carries loads of great old junk, or treasure, depending on how you look at it.  I go here when I am looking for a classic one of a kind item.  I love to browse through all the genuine old stuff, some I even recall from my youth, and just feel of the history there.  

I remember my grandmother used to make us “kids” sit in the kitchen when we went to Thanksgiving Dinner at her house.  I loved to eat in the kitchen because she had the most delightful colorful aluminum tumblers that got so cold when you put ice in them you could see the frost on the outside.  I searched the world over for some of those tumblers when I had to set a “kids” table of my own.  The Country Porch was a spot I checked and found success. 

The Chaparral Antique Mall is housed in a little more modern building than the rest, but it still has that old time atmosphere.  Glassware, pottery, and China, like Fostoria, Spode, Fiestaware, Lennox, and many other well-known brands can be found at The Chaparral Antique Mall.  Again, this is a shop with several independent vendors offering a wide variety of treasures to choose from.

One of my favorite locations to go and shop for antiques is on the other side of the “river” from Old Town called, Granny’s Attic.  I love Granny’s Attic because it has over 120 different vendors under one roof.  I can usually find just about anything I am looking for by going to Granny’s Attic, and they seem to have the lowest prices in town too.  The parking is not a problem, as it sometimes can be when you are shopping on Front Street in Temecula.  Granny’s Attic is 30,000 square feet of antique heaven!  Granny’s Attic is open 7 days a week, fro, 10-5.

Old Town Temecula has so much more to do than just antique shop. On the weekends they have a Farmer’s Market in the town square, and every fourth Saturday they have live gunfights in the center of town too. Don’t worry, they are just reenactments. Old Town Temecula has tons of great places to eat, and wine tasting shops to introduce you to the surrounding wineries in Temecula. If you want Boutique type shops, Old Town Temecula is loaded with them. There is also an Old Town Temecula Community Theater which offers a variety of different types of live shows. There are places to stay nearby and public transportation available to get to Old Town, in the form of an old time trolley car. With so much to offer, Old Town Temecula is a spectacular weekend vacation getaway. So come to Old Town Temecula and experience the Old West!
