After bemoaning our once-a-month opportunity at West Bottoms warehouses, local antiquers asked KCtoday to find spots to shop the oldies during normal weekday hours. And we did just that.

Here are five metro antique + vintage shops open outside of First Fridays:

  • Parkville Antique Mall | 173 English Landing Dr., Parkville, MO | Mon-Sat 10 a.m.-6 p.m., Sunday 11 a.m.-5 p.m. | If you’ve exhausted all three floors of Rivermarket Antiques, look no farther than this stop just across the water.
