Primitiques Market On Main is a unique local shop. The name makes you think of antiques and they do sell antiques at Primitique, but there’s a whole lot more than that for sale in the store. There’s furniture, knick-knacks, candles, clothing, jewelry, candy and the obligatory bike hanging from the ceiling.

The store was originally located at the corner of Sheridan and Main Street and I did a blog on that store back in 2017. Check out that post by clicking here.

A couple of years ago the store moved on down the road a bit but they’re still on Main Street, close to One World Cafe near the corner of Main and University. I’ve been meaning to stop into the new shop and today is that day!

To the MBIP Mobile!

Here we are at Primitque Market On Main, right across from Campustown.

As you can see from the sign, they do have curbside service, but we’re going in to take a tour so it’s through the doors we go!

Joan was working behind the front counter and she’s looking very cute in her mask and I love her glasses! She said to feel free to take all the photos I want, so that’s exactly what I’m going to do!

Let’s start snapping!

There’s the Primitiques sign with a fancy chandelier behind the front counter and off to the right is the obligatory bike hanging from a ceiling.

Wow, there’s so much unique and interesting items in here, that I can’t possibly capture all of it, so I’m going to break it down to categories and try and squeeze as much into this post as I can.

Sweet Treats

There’s cabinets in the front with all kinds of sweet goodies including gourmet popcorn, local honey and PrepZelz by AnZee, which are really a delicious looking candy/pretzel item. Check out their facecrack page here.

Clothing and Accessories

They offer a large inventory of clothing, hats, purses and scarves for sale in here.

Custom Furniture and Goods

A lot of this furniture is hand-made and one of a kind and there’s endless signs, rugs, lamps and really fun knick-knacks in the shop.

The Salon

I had no idea they have a hair salon in the back and it’s very nice! Walk-ins are welcome!

The Hitching Post

They also have a large room in the back called The Hitching Post.

This room holds about 30 to 35 people and can be rented out for parties, wedding and baby showers and events.

Apple Products

The place is loaded with vintage items, but as you can see, they also have state-of-the-art Apple products.

Halloween

It’s getting close to Halloween but if you don’t have any decorations up yet, there’s plenty to be had here for all of you last minute Halloween shoppers.
