Midway Antique Mall is the largest antique mall in Missouri, located just west of Columbia off I-70 with easy ramp access and plenty of parking. The facility is a huge converted warehouse, once an equestrian facility or horse barn, and it just keeps going and going with tons and tons of booths. The entrance lobby has air conditioning and heating, but the main warehouse area has limited climate control and can be warm. The layout is well-planned, with displays that are well-organized, clean, and often thematic. The selection is vast, featuring a mix described as top-of-the-line antiques, vintage, and retro items alongside modern and flea market pieces, offering something for everyone from collectors to those seeking nostalgic childhood items. Prices are noted as fair and reasonable, with great values, and tags provide significant information. Staff are consistently described as friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and providing good customer service. Visitors should plan to spend several hours exploring, wear good walking shoes, and note the policy requiring all bags and purses to be left in vehicles. The location is set back from the road and can be poorly marked, so using GPS is recommended. It is considered a definite must-stop, especially for those traveling between St. Louis and Kansas City.
