What clients say about Brass Bear Antiques in Hoover (AL)

I had a great time browsing all the wonderful things at Brass Bear. Lots of beautiful finds and great service. My only critique is pricing. Most vendor's prices are pretty steep, often the same or more than retail. However, I would still recommend checking them out!

Best antique market that I’ve been to in or around Birmingham. Huge selection and very charming area.

This is a very nice clean store with a good variety of items. Most of the prices were reasonable. I will return.

Love this antique mall! Some booths have really great prices and sales. The place is huge! There are a wide variety of antiques and collectibles for all ages. If you leave there empty-handed, go back the next week. You're sure to find something! It's one of my favorite antique spots in the Birmingham area!

Tons of stuff at FULL BLOWN retail pricing. If you’re looking to flip this isn’t the place to go. Man at the front that doesn’t get you seems grouchy! But there is a lot if cool stuff here! Like this Mickey here, it’s a $30 piece on eBay and they are selling it for $125!!!!

Thousands of square footage. I walked around for hours. I found a sweet note written on the back of a dresser.

Had never been in here and decided to stop by. Wasn’t my cup of tea; some of the booths are a little junky and it has more of a flea market feel rather than an antique store. The items I did have an interest in, the prices were a little steep. Has the feel of Bama Leeds store but smaller and a step more upscale

I have never left here without buying several things. So much stuff but it’s generally easy to look through. Nice staff

If you are looking for antiques, this is the place for you. It is 23,000 square feet of wall to wall unique items from the present and the past. It takes a while to go through all the isles, but it is worth it. You could have lunch at the Craft Burger just down from Publix and then walk it off at the Brass Bear afterwards

We REALLY enjoyed our visit. Found some great things for our 17th Wedding Anniversary! A great shirt for me, a wonderful Pig that dispenses my twine( use I all the time), s/p shakers that match our cookie jar and a wonderful set of oil paints that match our walls ans us perfectly!

We loved shopping the variety of booths here! Lots of great merchandise! We left with three nice picks to add to our collection. We were disappointed in the customer service. The guy seemed as though it was a bother to ask for assistance.

Our go to for a day of antiquing! Always find something new and interesting. The folks who work there are always so welcoming and friendly. Best antique mall ever and always recommend it especially for any unique furniture hunting. We spent hours browsing and rarely leave empty handed.

Ever wanted to buy something your parents had when you were a kid? Or wanted to find something unique to display in your home? Or you wanted to just spend a couple of hours browsing with great old music playing? This is the place! Outside the store, which is HUGE, there are a lot of old outdoor furniture which would look great in your garden. Go inside, and see many many aisles of everything else . It's hard to see everything in one day( if you're just browsing). Which makes it a " go to " place for me to chill. And even if you are just hanging out, I bet you can find something which will be perfect for a statement piece for your yard or inside your home. BTW, in a couple of months, vendors will be changing their booths and putting in Christmas stuff! Some newer, but mostly stuff which will bring back the best memories of Christmas past.

You just have to go and experience it. It's worse than any store I go to, and what I mean is that I always walk out of there with something I don't need. Really cool place, and the folks that work there are always nice and love to talk.

Terrible customer service. Tried to purchase a rather expensive cake stand( fostoria ) $300+ I saw in their Instagram. They refused to help me with shipping by helping me find a courier to drop at the ups store for packing/ shipping or better yet they could have dropped it themselves as businesses typically offer, they lost one of their dealers a sale. ( I’m across the country) Finally they just ignored my questions.

My son introduced me to this great store. We discovered some really great finds! It was such fun shopping here and the staff were so nice. This will be added to my regular go to destinations for unique finds!

Great shop for lovers of all things, antique and otherwise. What a huge selection! I still haven't explored every section of this place because there's just so much to see. The staff and vendors are friendly and will treat you like family after a visit or two. I'll be back to spend more money, I'm sure!

This is no reflection of the vendors, but a reflection of the staff. My family owned an antique business for 20 years, so I have had much experience with antique malls. Never have I been treated so rudely by staff at an antique mall. And it was so unnecessary, all over a few dollars. There was a 20% off sign in the booth that I shopped. When I went out front to pay, he said he didn’t see a notation in the computer about the sale. Again, I have a ton of experience in antique malls, so I know what I saw, and I even checked the initials on my items to make sure they matched the initials for the sale price. Since it was such a little amount of money, and he acted so put out by having a walk to the back to check, I told him not to worry about it. However, he could’ve said oh it’s no trouble, or apologize for the lack of clarity, anything. But nope, he said none of that. Very rude attitude and unfriendly and not trying to help. If you don’t wanna work, sit over there and watch TV and let somebody who wants to be friendly help the people who are spending money at your establishment. Even if it is only $20.

I took my mom and daughter shopping here today. My daughter is hearing impaired. She saw a Betty Boop antique statue and walked towards it. I asked her not to touch it, but due to so much background noise I do not believe she heard me. She fell backwards off the statue and knocked down an old concrete, garden figure. Her drink spilled a bit when this happened. I immediately cleaned up the drink. When an employee approached us, I said “I’m so sorry about this.” He ignored me and said “I’ll be calling the vendor about this.” My daughter was crying from falling. He didn’t check on my daughter or tell me their policy on broken items- didn’t even tell me if I would have to pay for it or not. He picked up the figurine and walked off. It was $15 dollars. This item was not antique, nor anything special. We continued shopping. I was buying several items and went to checkout about 30 minutes later. As the very rude old lady rung up my items, the previous employee walked up and smacked the sale tag for the broken figurine on the counter. He said NOTHING. The lady said NOTHING. She just told me my total with the $15 added. I had already handed her my card before he walked up. I asked her if they were really going to press the issue of $15 and why they didn’t think I was worthy of a conversation about their policy (there isn’t one). She just stared at me and charged me without my consent. My mom asked, “Well can we at least have the statue?” They acted appalled that she asked, but we paid for it. I told them I didn’t want it, but I wanted a picture of it so I could dispute with the bank. An employee tried to move it off the counter while I was taking a picture. If you have small children, especially with special needs I would highly advise you not to shop at Brass Bear Antiques. I saw previous reviews mentioning that employees at this establishment treat people of color poorly. So maybe no one should shop here in general. Karen, out

Shopping experience was fine…but they have some rather racist items in there which I think are extremely inappropriate to be selling.

I would give it more stars if available, it was amazing. I had a great experience and the people there were the absolute best ya'll. If you haven't been you are really missing out! I will definitely be back. I got a great lamp for $ 2.50 ! Its gorgeous. Wonderful place

I love this place. It’s been here for several years and I just found it. It’s on Valleydale and Caldwell Mill Rd by the Publix. The place is huge and there are so many vendors. The prices are great and they will take offers. They have collectibles, furniture, antiques, pictures, magazines, etc. Everything for everyone. Staff is very friendly and helpful. I can’t wait to go back!

My first visit and I absolutely loved this place. I didn’t realise how big it was until I got inside and started walking around. After about 4 or 5 isles I bumped into this little table at the front of the store... cake, brownies, little snacks and pop. Of course I purchased some because I needed the energy to finish walking around. Everyone was so very nice. There’s something for everyone, so many beautiful things. I purchased toys for the kids, lots of stuff for baking, vintage patterns, and teacups which was my main reason for going.

This place is a lot bigger inside than you would think looking outside. Had a lot of fun today browsing. There is a little of everything. Jewelry, clothes, accessories, books, kitchen items including cast iron, furniture, comics, rough hewn lumber, cow hides, military items, vintage toys, lighting fixtures, gemstones, furniture, boutique clothing...You name it! Roomy, accessible restrooms.
