Wrentham Country Store

Wanted to checkout a few antique stores this weekend to see if I could find any «gems». There were LOTS and LOTS of interesting antique items and the entire place felt exactly like a real antique shop (following, I went to the Medway Antique Shop, which had a much more modern, now, sort of feel, rather than anything ‘original’, like this place). Plus the exterior and interior are all old, and farm /​country like. There were lots of cool stuff both in side the store and outside, at the 20% off sale section. Interesting products & interesting layout, mostly like lots of small little rooms. I was told people are able to set up their stuff here, probably why there are so many small spaces with different products. Overall, a great small place, and most likely one of the best antique shops in a 20 mile radius (plus, if you’re looking for other shops they have fliers at the register area with antique shops throughout the South Shore area). 5 stars.
Located on Route 140 in Wrentham, just past both the Foxboro and Norfolk town lines. Quickly accessible off Route 1. From Route 1 Northbound, turn right just past the Foxborough town line onto Main Street, following a left at the end onto Pierce Street (Route 140). The store will approach on your right. From Route 1 Southbound, turn right onto East Street just past Chace Building Supply. At the end take a left to stay on East Street (also, Route 140).

Not a bad place, but it’s more of a place that somebody did a bunch of Pinterest crafts already for you. Which in turn makes items more expensive. The lady at the counter was very nice and helpful.

My favorite place to go browsing, I always find a treasure!

This place is a gem! Its is set up nicely… each vendor sets up their own vignette for their items. Imagine multiple treasure boxes every where you look and then you have the main idea of this store! The inventory seems to be refreshed quite often as well. I highly recommend this store for your home retail therapy.

I wish I loved this place, but I always seem to leave there disappointed and empty-​handed. As a lover of antiquing, I pop in occasionally, but it seems any item I would want to purchase is either marked with a «not for sale» sticker or is WAY overpriced with a «firm» sticker attached. I also find the selection of crafted items to make look like older items is much larger than the actual antique and vintage selections. I do love the charm of the place, but with sellers not willing to negotiate on over priced goods that I can find down the street for less, I am sadly forced to shop elsewhere.

When the hubby and I first happened upon this place, we were head over heels for it. We had been looking for a hole-​in-​the-​wall sort of place to find old treasures, and we thought this was it.
The rusty farm equipment and worn wooden crates beckoned us like the call from the penned goats nearby. No, really, there are goats out front.
We poked around the stuff on the front porch, and made our way inside. The place is deceivingly large, and it is set up by vendor. I guess there’s 20-​something different sellers who arrange their items for sale. It is really cute, many of the areas will have a «theme» of sorts. I think it’s super cute, however, what throws me is that there are repurposed and «vintage-​style» items mixed in with the real antiques. I don’t mind items like that, but when shopping for antiques, I’d rather it be all antiques. It can be misleading for the less-​than-​discerning shopper.
Even with the odds and ends items mixed in, we managed to find more than an armful of antique goodies to bring home. We felt like we wanted everything on our first visit, and couldn’t wait to go back.
Our second visit was less impressive. I don’t know if the «shiny new» feeling had just worn off, if there weren’t enough «new additions» in the booths to choose from, or it was just a bad lot of products, but we didn’t seem to find as much. We did get a handful of things but agreed, we were both a little let down.
We’ll certainly visit again, though. One thing I like about the place is that they have «themes» sometimes, like they had a bunch of holiday items out around Christmas, and another time they had a «white» theme (all white items). So it can be different each time you go.
Just like any antique place, what you’re going to get is dependent on what you’re looking for and what is there when you stop in. You might hit the jackpot, you may walk out empty handed.
All in all, I’d give a solid four, because all things considered, the shop people are nice and friendly (and don’t watch over your shoulder like you’re trying to steal), it is well-​laid out, interesting and fun to shop and — when we checked against items for sale online — many times the prices in-​shop were a little bit less than buying online, so you know you’re getting a fair sell. It’s worth checking out!

This is a great little shop with a wide variety of antique, vintage and vintage-​inspired goods. Whether you like french style, early American, victorian, whatever, there’s really a great selection. Prices are refreshingly reasonable (it’s as if they actually want the items to MOVE! ;), especially compared to the other antique shops nearby.
I found several items on my first visit, including a gorgeous frame, hammered silver plated pitcher, and milk glass nesting hen. I’m looking forward to my next visit!
