Portland Flea

Pretty cool little crafts and trinkets market. It was nice that there was a small food and drink stand indoors but I found that many of the vendors inside were selling more or less the same items. Also, while a few items caught my eye, many of them turned out to be pretty costly for the face value.

The Portland Flea happens the last Sunday of every month. Lots of antique stores, private vendors and artists gather here to show their goods. There are booths both inside and outside and food vendors. A variety of items from clothing to household goods to furniture to art. I had fun spotting things that I’d only see on Pawn Stars and American Pickers!
The prices are not a bargain. There really are no deals. However, if you are collector, this is the place to go. Lots of cool items and knowledgeable people. A lot of the vendors have brick and mortar stores. If you like what they have, you can always go to their stores for a little more in-​depth investigation.
Street-​parking. Lots of friendly people. A fun Sunday morning adventure!
