The Best Thrift & Antique Shopping in Gallatin, TN

At the Mildly Obsessed Market in Gallatin, TN, we see lots of travelers – some local and some from out of state. We love hearing about where you’re going, where you’re from, and why you’re here. We learn so much from our customers – something new every day! Keep coming, and keep telling us your stories!

Asked and answered! Here are our favorite second hand haunts in Gallatin and surrounding areas. Now, I’ve only been in the area for a few months so I’m still learning. Be sure to bookmark this page as I’m sure I’ll be adding to it. We will start with Gallatin and shops near The Mildly Obsessed Market, and work our way around to Portland and then we will go the other direction to Lebanon. Under each list, you’ll find a map routing to each store in trace.

These are in order of proximity to my store, and how they’ll map for you when you leave us! There are many other shops in the Gallatin Square, but I haven’t been there yet! I hope to visit more stores soon so that I can add more options to this list.

  1. Earth First Vintage – When I first moved to Gallatin, I saw this place with it’s big beautiful corner windows…I phoned a friend and said…‘Ma’am. There’s a plant store. LIKE A PLANT STORE THAT’S NOT A CHAIN. A REAL PLANT STORE.’ Giddiness. Y’all. We went for a plant…one side of the store is a plant store…so, success, obviously. We left with a bag full of vintage and antique GREATNESS. Don’t miss this stop!

Please check in to our digital guest book if you visited our store, or leave a quick note on Google Maps. In fact, do this for all the stores! Your reviews make a big difference!

This is absolutely not an all inclusive list! There are MANY beautiful shops in Gallatin and in the Gallatin Square. I am just not yet familiar with all of them! My best advice in Gallatin is take the time to park and explore the square after visiting all the shops on the outskirts. We love the Honey Rock Books & Cafe and Mable’s Dining Room for lunch! And, of course, there is a Goodwill in Gallatin. There are also a several great stores in surrounding Lebanon, Portland, and Hendersonville. More coming on those. If you have a favorite spot to visit, please let me know in the comments.
