My wife and I came to Pasadena to attend a wedding. In between events, we stumbled upon this shop, and found a cool collection of lithographs. Unfortunately we were traveling from out of town, and weren't able to fly with these items. The staff put us in touch with Suzy, the owner, who helped us packed and shipped the items to us in the Bay Area. Items were professionally packed. Suzy was great to work with, and we appreciated her going the extra mile with us. Thank you! read more

If you wanna be followed around by 4 employees, then this is the shop! I was really excited to check out a new antique spot, but quickly got uncomfortable being followed by them. Plus the smell is so strong! Chill! Not going back. To expensive too. read more

I think I got off on the wrong foot with Pasadena Antique Mall. I'd seen the sign for this place on the Paseo about a million times, so I finally stopped in over the holiday break to take a look. There was no one at the door, so I walked in and started looking around. A woman then came in and asked me and the other shopper nearby (a mom and her daughter who couldn't have been over two) to step back while she took temperatures and asked us some COVID-related questions. I stood in the doorway while the mom and daughter took their turn and was surprised to hear the shop gal sternly tell the mother that her daughter was going to need to wear her mask properly. I mean, I'm totally with you on adults wearing their masks correctly whenever in public. 100%! But this kid was two years old--she was wearing a mask but it fell down below her nose. The tone of the shop employee was really just off putting. Anyway, I got through the temp check and strolled around the store. As someone who spends a lot of time at Goodwill, Savers, and the like, I feel like a lot of the stuff here could end up at a thrift store for a quarter of the price. Don't get me wrong, there are some cool pieces, but nothing that I really needed to buy. If you're looking for cool vintage finds in the Pasadena area, save your monies for the Rose Bowl flea when it comes back! read more

Completely blown away at the amazing collection. I visited just as a casual window shopper and found myself lost in the array of different and appealing works of art. The customer service sealed the deal !! Thanks for the experience. read more

I loves me a great antique mall, but this isn't one of them. It's good, but not great. You do have to check your bags with the clerks, but I didn't mind. It's loaded up with lots of old household items, jewelry, and your everyday antique mall junk. It's a nice place, but really tight. It has a very nice book section and a very cool booth filled with TV and movie memorabilia that state that they come with COA's. I did, however, find the coolest booth filled with Franciscan Starburst dinnerware. I know, right??? I enjoyed my time there. It's definitely worth checking out. read more

Pasadena Antique Mall - There's a booth full of this stuff. - Antiques Near Me - Pasadena, California

At first glace they had some great stuff, many things were priced above fair, but it was not without expectation. I found a few things I was going to purchase, but after witnessing my friends experience, I chose NOT to buy anything from them, no matter how great I thought the items were. I walked out of there very disappointed in their customer service. We were super excited to to check this place out. My friend, who is a collect of antique books found a few that she had been looking for and stood in front of the desk to check out for a good 10 min before anyone came up to us to ask if we needed help. We said we wanted to check out. Then we made eye contact with the cashier he looked at us and bold faced looked at the customer next to us and decided to take them first. They were BROWSING.. we were ready to buy. After about 20 more mintues of waiting, I sat down in a chair in front of the register. The guy apologized to us for the wait and said he would be right with us. In the mean time, he had helped 2 more customers over us!!!! 40 minutes later, we were finally helped and out the door. Never again will I visit this establishment even to browse. Like I said, it had some great stuff. I even thought to purchase a couple items myself, but I would never give that place a penny after my friend was treated so poorly. read more

Antiques aren't my thing. But I've been dragged into so many antique malls that after browsing through this entire store I can fairly compare it to many other places I've visited. The stuff sold here seems to run the range from truly antique to not-that-old-but-collectible. And there is some junk that isn't that old and not collectible. The layout is similar to other antique malls - a variety of spaces where different vendors display what they have for sale. When I visited there was a large space selling books and quite a number of stalls selling jewelry and dishes. Another stall was selling movie memorabilia and another Tommy Bahama shirts. You might see old pipe collections or an assortment of vintage letter openers or vinyl jazz records from the 50s. You don't know what sort of stuff you'll find so if you're into antiques this is definitely a place you'll want to stop in and have a look around. read more

Pasadena Antique Mall - Antiques Near Me - Pasadena, California

This might just be the cleanest, most comprehensive, and best-organized antique mall I've experienced, and I've experienced more than my share of antique malls! The various sections are neat and well-defined, which shows that the individual vendors devote time to maintaining their spaces. Best of all, it was affordable. There were so many fantastic items within my price point (which is LOW) that I had a difficult time controlling myself and culling my finds. It became more an issue of "Do I have space for this?" than "Should I spend on this?" In the end, I scored some great Pyrex pieces that I know from experience were very reasonably priced. I also snapped up some vintage ViewMaster reels in pristine condition, including the original sleeves and accompanying booklets, the latter of which I have never seen in an antique store (they always seem to end up separated from the reels). The "entertainment" nook where I found the reels was extra-fun, with life-size celebrity cut-outs and lots of movie and pop culture memorabilia. This would be a great spot for affordable gift shopping for that person in your life who has everything. Hit it up for your holiday shopping needs and I'll bet you manage to cross at least a few names off your list! read more

This is a fun place to shop when you aren't really looking for anything. There are tons of little nooks to go through with consignment goods of all kinds. I love finding cool little stuff, old books, records, hats etc. You can park in the Paseo parking and walk around the Paseo afterward too.. might be a fun date thing to do too, since there is lots of stuff to find and discuss as you walk through.... read more

The Pasadena Antique Mall has become my go-to place to get unique gifts. I figure it's better to get something more one-of-a-kind, rather than some mass produced item. The prices vary, but if you hunt around, you can find great items for under $50. I WOULD give this place a full 5 stars, however, I didn't like the "covid check" at the front door which consisted of many questions and even a breathing test. Overzealous much? It was all even more ridiculous because the elderly gentleman doing the check was only wearing a face shield and no mask which doesn't protect him or myself. *shrug read more

Gone to a lot of antique stores in east coast Pa Maryland Ohio. Extremely overpriced an most stuff is newer. Everything I picked up was $75. Basically in a dead mall lots of empty shops read more

One man's trash is another's treasure or so the saying goes. This antique mall is quite large with mostly books and knickknacks. They have a small section of clothing and lots of movie memorabilia. Items are on the higher priced end of antique shopping but I think that's because they are sold on consignment. There was this amazing Creole cookbook that I can't stop thinking about. I didn't buy it because I really don't like owning/ messing with other People's Property ( Never been down with OPP my parents raised me right) so I passed on the book but it was really a cool, rare find. The prices and overload of "stuff" has me saying A-Ok on the thrifty antiquities and I give pasadena antique Mall a solid 3 stars. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. The owner Suzy is rude to the customers and the store is disorganized and dirty. Shocking for the Pasadena area, that is usually so nice. Im an avid antique shopper so I was disappointed to discover that the inventory at this location is always similar each time I go in. Nothing new and the place gets dirtier each time I go. I will no longer go to this location. There are so many other places to shop and they are nicer and cleaner with better inventory. Happy. Antique hunting to all. Just don't go here! read more

Ahh my heart . I've been to the Antique mall a couple times and I honestly love it. It's located in the little Paseo Colorado center (I think that's its name) They have an interesting art collection, tons of great, old records, books, furniture etc. It's a large shop so naturally there are people working there who roam around making sure everyone's helped and there was a person who I believe may own the store that was friendly and happy to help. My friend and I came here after having a quick bite at Great Maple just a few steps away in the plaza. He'd never been and I wanted to show him how cool it was. While I was walking around there was someone who I believe to be the owners child (teen) who was following me around the store, almost determined to catch me stealing something. When I turned a corner the person was literally hot on my heels trying to not lose sight of me until they realized my friend was around the corner and then quickly put their head down and rushed away. I'd later see them standing behind the counter with the possible owner. What a disappointing experience and a cruddy feeling, as I was truly here to enjoy their unique collection, especially the books and I was immediately snapped back into the reality of how other people view me based on my appearance. I do understand the person was young and probably trying to be helpful to their parent or whoever BUT even still, what a great opportunity to learn a lesson in empathy, humanity & NOT PROFILING YOUR CUSTOMERS. read more

This one star review is not for the whole store, rather it is for Booth 4, where I was absolutely appalled to see a plethora of Nazi "memorabilia", including 1940's era Jewish stars, concentration camp armbands, swastikas in every shape and size, as well as KKK artifacts. What's especially galling is that they are kept right out in the open, with no "adults only" warning. Right next to the Disney toys and Howdy Doody cups. I don't know how anyone can sleep at night profiting from selling this material, and the "for historical purposes only" disclaimer is laughable. Shame on the antique mall for trying to profit off genocide. I won't be returning. read more

This place is huge and very fun to explore. Not only are there many sections to wander around, there are also small rooms tucked away in some of the halls. It's easy to kill hours in there just looking at all the trinkets and historical items. There were scores of modern to really old books, period clothes, toys, art, records, collectibles, accessories, knick knacks and much much more. Additionally, they had rare items from popular movies/shows in the past such as Titanic and Pirates of the Caribbean amongst others. Although, I have to admit some of the items/rooms spooked me such as the small room with the wedding gowns and clothes and the one with the raggedy Ann dolls. Did not really spend much time/go into those rooms.... I am not an antique collector myself so I cannot say much about the price, but this is definitely a stop you should make if you're in the area looking for something interesting to do. read more

A great place to spend some time discovering treasures! I almost never leave empty handed.

this place is nice honestly, the worker gave my friends and i candy during christmas and it was so yummy (it was free too!) and the things were so antique like wow! i was getting elegance and antiqueness. it was so retro, was giving the vibes. although it was kinda creepy and smelt like dust. there were also these girls gatekeeping the playboy magazines :( read more

Pasadena Antique Mall - one of the painting in the antique shop - Antiques Near Me - Pasadena, California

This is a fun place to spend a few hours perusing. A lot of great treasures. The pricing is set by the vendors/sellers, not by the antique mall. This means that some of the prices are fair, some are great deals, and some are just crazy high. There is no rhyme or reason to how the store is laid out, with the exception of the books - those are all in one place and divided by topic. It can be a fun place to explore on a date after lunch or dinner at one of the restaurants in the shopping center. read more

If you stroll around Paseo, it's hard to miss this Antique Mall. Check it out if you're into vintage things, this place is huge. You could spend hours browsing all their merchandise: cool furniture, home decor, clothes, jewelry, some artwork. You can find some gems, but not really bargains. Some of the items are expensive, overpriced for what they are. Not everything that's a bit older is that valuable. Here, it kinda is. Staff isn't super friendly here. Parking- various options: street or inside the Paseo's garage. Overall, The Antique Mall in Pasadena is a fun place to browse. read more

Amazing rabbit hole place! I found a rare book about Shanghai history for only 38 dollars which is 250 dollars on Amazon!! They have a million old books here and a lot of fascinating old paintings and arts for cheap. I will come back here for sure! happy to find this place! read more

Cool little antique spot, especially if you're into movie memorabilia. Not only do they have a variety of set props, jewelry and costumes for sale, they're all guaranteed by the vendor that they're 100% real and come with a certificate of authenticity. Though some of the stuff was out of my price range, I did consider paying $90 for a shot glass used in the movie Casino... Totally worth it, right? They have a ton of books, records and household items as well as some cool old projectors and cameras for those people into old film stuff. I also saw a nice variety of retro toys and action figures still in the package that caught my interest, but decided to pass this time around since I had just bought a bunch of horror themed trinkets from ScareLA across the street. The store was nicely organized and there were plenty of people around to help if you had any questions. Because each spot it operated by a different person, there's a wide range of things you can find, so I heard new stuff comes in on the regular depending on what said vendors find/decide to sell. Definitely a fun stop if you're in the area! read more

With the exception of a few antiques, this place should definitely be called something closer to a vintage shop (I'd say thrift store, but nothing in this place is quite 'thrifty'). The Pasadena Antique Mall is definitely a great way to kill a few hours while in the Paseo part of Pasadena. From the outside it looks small, and unassuming, but once you go inside, it's a labyrinth of rooms, and different sections filled with amazing goodies! I couldn't contain myself with excitement, much to the chagrin of the two people working there who weren't too happy with me. There was so much I wanted to buy, yet Grad school is fast approaching and I needed to save as much as I could. I did manage to leave with an excellent, little veiled hat to top off my She-rlock Holmes costume (haha!) The two qualms I have about returning to this antique mall are the prices and the service. The man working here was downright rude. I didn't know if it was intentional, or the fact that he was having a bad day, I was so taken aback by is blatant and mean candor! You'll need my business once I'm graduated and need to furnish my home. But I guess foresight is lacking in some. Also, found some pieces I was going to buy from here much cheaper online anyway and bought them read more

If your into swap meets this one is the all time best one to come. It's only the second Sunday of every month. I recommend to wear comfy shoes as there is a lot of walking.

We recommend coming and checking it out. You don't know what your missing read more

I can't believe it took me this long to finally go inside the PAM! From the outside, this place looks tiny. However, once you actually go inside, you will realize it's a pretty big store. You may be overwhelmed with the variety of things they sell here, but half the fun is roaming around the different rooms in search of some good deals. I got a cool masquerade mask for less than $7! I can't wait to wear it when I have a costume party to attend. Check out the pictures of this place for an idea of the awesomeness you'll find! read more

Omg! I walked in to see what they had. She immediately tells you to put on you mask, then takes your temp then ask you all kind of questions like have you been out of the county? Do you have a cough? Know anyone with a cough and then when you say no to all of that you have to hold your breath for 10 seconds before she will let you in. Soooooo stupid!!! read more

As others have said, this place is less of an "antique" shop and more of a chachkies shop with random odds and ends. The store itself is fun to wander through, and occasionally you'll find a fun treasure that's reasonably priced. But 99% of the items in the store are unimaginably overpriced. Don't expect to find anything worth buying within a reasonable price, and you won't leave disappointed. The staff follows the same rules as the quality of merchandise in the shop. 99% of the time the staff is incredibly rude and condescending. The 1% of staff that are pleasant tend to be under the age of 25. These staff members are almost always helpful and polite and won't treat you poorly, so if you need assistance, try to get one of them to help. There is an older man that you should steer clear of 100% of the time. He's clean shaven, tall, skinny, with short gray hair. On one occasion he asked for my ID to complete a credit card purchase. I was using my husbands card (who happened to be standing next to me) so I handed him my husbands ID. This older staff member looked at the ID, threw it across his able at me stating, "this doesn't look like you." And went to put the item I was attempting to purchase away. I had to raise my voice in order for him to acknowledge the fact that the Owner of the ID was standing next to me, and it was intact his credit card in his hand. With no acknowledgment of his rudeness he processed the transaction as if I had done something wrong. It's also worth mentioning that you can not purchase anything in the store with a card if it's less than $10. The only signage mentioning this is hidden at the register, and it states "$10 minimum charge on credit cards." Apparently this also means debit cards. You can not buy anything under $10 with any kind of plastic card. If you don't reach this minimum, the staff is more than happy to point out any number of cheap pieces of chachkie crap located on the table/register for you to buy that can bring you to the $10 minimum. Moral of the story: expect to be disappointed. read more

I LOVE WALKING THROUGH THIS PLACE! It has almost become a routine now because the husband and I come to Paseo to eat and walk around the antique mall. There are some amazing items in here and I wish I had a house, and a wallet, big enough to buy everything! On my most recent visit, it was destiny that I purchased a kitty teapot that I passed over a while ago. This teapot is special because it was made by Takahashi, San Francisco which was a huge maker, and importer, of ceramics post WWII. The real reason I bought is that I recently got married and my maiden name is Takahashi and I am the mother of all cats. So, needless to say, it had to be mine. You always find something delightful here and, when I strike it reach, the jewelry that was worn by Audrey Hepburn in Sabrina will be mine! read more

This store is home to countless amazing memories with friends, old and current. Their catalogue is fascinating and hilarious.

Horrible customer service. This employee man with a wannabe French accent and horrendous looking hat did not greet us nor smile.

I bought a book from Joel's stand that turned out to have a split spine at the title page (my bad for not catching that). I went to return or exchange it the next day - a busy Saturday afternoon - and brought my receipt. There were only young kids at the desk - no managers - who told me that I needed the written receipt as well as the electronic print-out (I had not gotten one). I told them that THEY had a copy of that. They looked through their records, eventually found it, saw the name of the book I'd returned, but said it had been filled out incorrectly (is that my problem?). All the while, two kids were frantically calling various higher-ups, none of whom answered. They explained that they didn't have the power to do anything on their own, at which point I started to get impatient. So the kid who was doing the work (Nicolai) got more and more flustered. Eventually (maybe 15-20 minutes?) he got through to someone, listened, and then relayed to me that he would neither return the money nor exchange the book, triumphantly pointing to the bottom of the written receipt (which I didn't have), reading "ALL SALES FINAL." I couldn't believe it. They'd sold a defective book, and were refusing to either refund or exchange it. In a lifetime of book-buying, used or new, this has NEVER happened to me. How about you? I just shoved the book across the counter, told him he could keep it, cussed him out (yes I did), and walked out. I will not be back, even though I have bought books there before. Putting young kids in charge of the mall, while not giving them the authority to address obvious screw-ups (in this case, a book's broken spine), is unfair both to them and the mall's clientele. But then telling the customer that they have to eat the error is cynical and corrupt. You may find "treasures" there - I hope you do - but that won't change the facts that they are badly managed, unprofessional, and deeply unfair. I no longer consider them worthy of support - be warned, Yelpers. read more

So you missed the local swap meet or the big Pasadena flea market at the Rose Bowl and you are looking to do some poking around? Look no further than the this Antique Mall located within the Paseo Colorado outdoor mall. Lot's of shops and restaurants in close proximity too once you emerge from this cavernous space back into the main mall. So you wanna, pop some tags? Numerous vendors offer their specialty within their small space( I am guessing at least 50 individual booths). They are stalls within the antique mall within the larger mall. Got it? It becomes evident when you walk in the each section is rented by a different vendor selling their wares. Vintage to shabby chic can be found. Mags from the 40's and 50's next to comic books and movie posters nestled in with Clothing, jewelry, books and all sorts of collectibles are packed in every nook and cranny. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/pasadena-antique-mall-pasadena#O9BMJd_oz3MNL2rcVAKYPA http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/pasadena-antique-mall-pasadena#hdxb176SKDJguhtt9TVy-Q http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/pasadena-antique-mall-pasadena#Qp2nIl7cq1TDsO_tkMKsdQ Most items are clearly marked and you can ask the shop keep if there is any wiggle or haggle room on the pricing. Don't be afraid to make and offer even if it means leaving empty handed for the moment. They will confer with the item's owner and get back to you should your offer be accepted. The selection is varied and it is a great place to peruse, you never know what may appeal to you. Once person's junk is another person's treasure and you'll likely find both rummaging around the Pasadena Antique Mall. read more

This antique spot lives up to the term "mall". From the outside, I was expecting a tiny little shop. Oh no. This place is gigantic. I stopped by during a lunch break at work, but quickly realized that to cover this place the way it should be covered (slowly and surely), you would need to allot a decent period of time (an hour at the very least). Every inch of this place is filled with something. There's some rhyme and reason to it, but not much. Pretty wide range of finds, and I can only assume that the stock will vary from trip to trip. A tad bit on the pricy side for a lot of the items, but if you poke around enough you're sure to find something reasonably priced and awesome. Staff is very sweet. Parking is easy and they validate. Credit cards accepted. read more

This place is a fun place to wander around for awhile, but that's about it. It's overpriced, and I didn't see many actual antiques. A book printed in 1995 is not an antique. A Dirk Nowitzski basketball card is not an antique. A record from the 1980s is not an antique. Most of the stuff here is just used junk, though a lot of it is pretty cool. Prices are not very tempting. The books were far too expensive for relatively recent editions. And I don't care how hard to find a record is; it has to also be in high demand to justify charging $10+. I don't care how good the condition is; a normal record store wouldn't charge that much for a Greg Lake solo album from the 1980s. Go here to find some cool stuff. Just don't expect to find real antiques or good prices. read more
