I stopped in here on my way home from a work trip, and it's huge! Tons of booths full of stuff and…read morelots of empty booths available to rent too. It's a mix of antiques, boutique items, homemade items, junk, etc. prices were mostly reasonable. Some booths were way higher than others. There was 1 lady running the register, and she was nice enough. I'd stop back by if I'm driving through the area for sure! I found a couple of unique items. They also have an EV charging station in the parking lot!

While driving thru we found this amazing antique mall! This place is huge, clean, and did I mention…read moreamazing?! It is 24K sf of antique, art, collectibles, and so much more. They sell baked goods- the smell of cinnamon rolls while browsing was intoxicating! My husband and I browsed for two hours, it didn't feel like two hours! So many booths, so many treasures! If you're traveling through, or if you live even an hour or more away, this place is completely worth a visit. Their staff is super friendly, the place was clean (did I mention the smell of cinnamon rolls in the air?!). I found a couple of really cute dishes, in two separate booths, that are matching and adorable! The prices vary as most places do that have individual booths. Definitely going to revisit, I hope you visit them too!

Just wanted to add that they now do take cards. Great service as usual. My favorite place to thrift.read more

When the stars align just right and I find myself in Miami during this store's tricky Saturday…read morehours of operation (9 am to 11:45 am was their Saturday schedule, last I heard)...I like to check out the wares at Friendship House. I hate giving it a low star rating because I've found great items here at affordable prices and the staff is always friendly. But the hours and frequent closed days make it difficult to visit for out of towners or those who work Monday through Friday. My husband recently came in and found a half dozen pairs of pants that he would like to have purchased, but he needed to try them on and this store's signs state no dressing rooms (on the actual dressing room doors, no less). So I cannot go higher than 3 stars. Also, if you visit during their open hours and it looks closed, it's probably because they're using only the back door for entry now (as of July 2019).

Small yet very nice antique shop. This is not a treasure trove of super low priced knick knacks or…read moreflea market items. It is a down to Earth take on fancy antique stores, where most items have a real story behind them and are authentic, true antique pieces. Because of this you may get sticker shock at times but it's worthwhile. These people clearly know their merchandise and I would feel confident making even a larger purchase here. Bonus points for the cute sweet kitty, Luna, who is always in the shop on our visits.

This is a review of the retail store only and not the bistro…read more We have often driven past Sandstone Gardens on our way to Missouri. We have never stopped. Lucky for me, it is open at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday morning as I breezed through Joplin. It's a formidable looking fortress but just be brave and open up one of the massive brown doors. (Entrances aren't really labeled.) I ended up entering through the bistro area. The home decor and kitchen items are maybe a bit pricey but not outrageous. The concrete sculptures (which they make on site) are fantastic. If you want to purchase one, just take a pic of it and they will secure one for you at the check out area. There's also baskets by the check out that you can place all your wares in and no one else can shop through them. But back to the sculptures...they are pretty reasonable and of good quality. If you buy one, you must drive to the back of the property where they make them to pick them up. This would be a five star review (for the retail store) if they had been a bit friendlier and helpful. Maybe we will have time for lunch sometime and up this to five!

Really great food, wonderful deserts and the shopping experience is great. But call ahead and…read morereserve a table. The wait can be hours on weekends. Hers my only really complaint. We did show up on a recent Saturday when they were packed and were told the wait was about 45 minutes. Well that was okay because there is so much to see and do shopping there. I love this place and can always find things I wish we had in our house. Interior decorators and people who like interesting decoration things for both inside and outside the home should have a good time exploring this decorating wonderland. However, we came back multiple times after one hour (remember they said 45 min). and were repeatedly told we were next. About two hours after we arrived were were finally seated. I balme the customers a bit, there were many tables with people hanging ut waiting mostly for wife to finish shopping. So basically people would come in for lunch, hand out with family and friends and time up a table for hours. Long after they are done eating they continue to sit there and wait while some of the group goes out to shop. I find thse really rude and surprised that the owners don't suggest to people that they hand out elsewhere. Like the many places to sit outside. I get that it puts the owners in a difficult situation because they want to sell decorator stuff. However, they really need to figure this out and find some way to move people off the tables and hanging out somewhere else. Once seated the food was generally good but we didn't have the best waiter the last time we came in. Constantly forgetting things bringing out things wrong, not refilling water, forgetting table setting after asking several times, etc. Although we will come back as everything is good I won't bring a group, just my wife and I and I will not come without planning on loosing half a day waiting for a table, then service. All in were were there four hours! When we really dropped in for lunch.

I have no idea how they check to make sure everyone is out of the building at the end of the day. There were lots of flea markety items, used clothing, collectibles, tools, furniture and more. I would budget at least two hours or more to see the whole place.

In addition to regular educational materials they have a section for Christian teaching, maybe home school or religious based schooling. The lady working during our visit was friendly and helpful. They have incentive charts and almost any materials and goodies needed for a classroom setting. It is packed store. Drawback is that the parking lot is very small and not easy to maneuver in a larger vehicle.
