10. Hermann's Attic Antique Mall

Reviewed By 787noelm
I visited Hermann’s Attic a few months ago on a weekday. I bought a Scottie dog planter and a rack with 8 vintage kitchen tools. The store has quite a few booths, lots of records and books. I collect cat figurines but none were available. I didn’t have lots of time that day to browse the entire shop. The shop has many vintage items and prices were average. I will probably make a return visit as I enjoy using the kitchen tools.
