"My Friends and I" is a cute and organized antique store with holiday-oriented goods as well as stationery, little trinkets, and other smaller items. I liked how they had a mixture of new as well as used items.

Went out with family today and ended up in Downtown Niles area, Fremont. My mom loves antique stores for reasons unbeknownst to me, but the fact that this one would carry classic NHL memorabilia is enough to be a 5-star in itself. Gordie Howe, come on...couldn't not get this!If you don't know Niles area it's a good little local spot to get out with friends and family for a quick day, worth a visit from time to time.

Hands down this is my favorite shop in Niles. There certainly is no shortage when it comes to vintage stores in the historic district but My Friends & I is a standout. Their selections range from actual antique to vintage inspired and have a shabby cottage, farm chic flair. Quality of their wares is superior with items in excellent condition. Ladies working the front counter are very sweet and will chat with you about the area or your shopping selections. I found some beautiful pieces-a bright blue clear glass bird, a bright and colorful new throw pillow and some nature inspired canvas art-all items under $30 each.I look forward to this shop most of all when visiting Niles and hope to be back soon.

When I go to Niles I always have to stop by here, it's one of my favorite shops on the street. My favorite things about this store is that the areas tend to be themed either with color or season and makes it so much easier to find items. Additionally, they sell handmade items from sellers so you can find some cool gifts here!

They have diagonal street parking out front, but if all of that has been taken up (most likely by the Saturday Niles Farmer's Market), try either the Town Plaza Parking lot across the street (just off the Niles Town Plaza) or down H Street (basically around the nearest corner). If you spend over a certain amount (I think it was $5), you can also get a free trinket out of a basket they have near the register. At the time I was there, a lot of the trinkets were Fourth of July-themed earrings. It's mostly antiques, but I saw there were also (what looks to be) locally made or handcrafted products being sold in there as well. The historic Niles neighborhood is made up of a lot of antique stores. My Friends & I are one of several located ON the Niles Town Plaza and use the whole length of the historical building it is in. Basically, while it looks small in the front, it goes waaaayy back. You want to go through most of these places with just the mindset of browsing, so I'm grateful that they're being very meticulous about labeling the cost of everything. Aisles weren't too narrow, there were lots of nooks and crannies to explore, and it's well lit. The back of the building is a bit bit warmer and stuffier, but that's to be expected with buildings this old and they try to ventilate it with a box fan. Overall, lots of cool things for reasonable prices. I've been to a lot of Bay Area antique places where things are majorly marked up, so this was a new experience for me lol. Seriously, the ladies (owners?) at the counter were SO NICE. Though might be worth noting, their collection is a mix of vintage, antiques, handcrafted, and things that LOOK vintage. That's not on the store so much as that generally seems to be the trend around here. Some of those dishes were definitely on the newer end even if the patterns and styles look older. I found this gorgeous necklace that doubles as a magnifying glass that was definitely newer even if it was a vintage style. Later found out it goes for about $15 on Amazon. Not complaining because I got it for $12, but just a side note for those browsing for VINTAGE-vintage.

Indiana Jones got his holy grail diary here! Towards the back there is a shelf of handmade leather journals. The owner knows a guy (a Tanner, I suppose) and he makes the leather cover, special paper, binds it, etc. Each one is unique and while they're not cheap (mine was $40), it is a rare find that makes you want to go on a quest for the ark of the covenant!
