Something for everyone. Two floors packed of unique items. Once in a while you will bump into the booth owners (renters?) and have a lovely chat.

Rustic Dairyland Antique Mall is a great place to get sidetracked before a stop at the Cheese Castle- there wasn’t an abundance of parking out front, but we were some of the only people in there around 10 AM. There is a huge variety of clothes, housewares, toys, trinkets, and things you didn’t know you need; you could easily spend a few hours here. Upstairs flooring is a little sketchy but worth it for the finds!

Customer Service: Good, KindPrices: High, not comparable to other storesDisplay: Prone to breaking, UnsettledQuality: Mostly past 20 years or poorer condition from last 50 yearsAccessibility: Lower level only, clear paths yet many booths unable to enter with walking aidsNarrative: Been there twice. Good place to stretch your legs along the highway. Each time we were there something broke. I don't want to say "someone" because many items are perilously placed in cramped spaces. The staff will demand you pay for them but legally I'm not sure you're required to do so. The staff are very weary of children and it's because of the tight spacing not shoplifting. The upstairs is only accessible by walking and many booths need to be viewed from the aisles which isn't uncommon for antique stores.

A neat place to check out interesting little finds. There is quite a bit of repetition, and some pricing is ridiculous. The amount of space was impressive, Lots to search through. Was intrigued by what is considered an antique nowadays. Some spaces are fairly cramped, which made me nervous - didn't want to knock into anything and risk breaking it. Also, it is two stories. Didn't know this till we entered. Not sure if there is an elevator though. The staircase is very wide. The upstairs had some softer spots in the flooring and a lot of creaking that may make some nervous. All in all, a cool place.

A fun place to browse. Many of the booths had the same type of collections- old toys/games, glassware and miscellaneous items. If looking for old tools, crocks, military items, records you can quickly get to the booth that Carrie’s the items you’re interested in. Prices are reasonable, especially if you catch a “% off” sale.

It is a fine store but calling it an antique store is a bit of a stretch. Most of the vendors have items that are 20-years old or newer. Meaning toys and glassware from the early 2000's. There is a pretty extensive vinyl selection. And to be fair, there are some vendors with antiques, just not many and the prices are fit for the Illinois traffic (i.e. expensive).

This was a really cool pitstop on my trip between Milwaukee and Chicago. Lots of cool stuff to look at. Place is huge, with nice helpful staff, great prices and plenty of free parking! My wife picked up some fun items while we stopped! I will be back for sure next time im In the area!

If you are into small pieces for decorating your hutch then this is the place. Most of the antiques only go back to the 70's and 80's. Place is laid out well. Wasnt what I was expecting judging by the exterior

Been passing by this place for years and finally stopped in. So glad we did! Fun time exploring the antiques and sampling different cheeses, popcorn, and candies.

Big antique store with genuinely neat items! Steam punk items there are super cool! Prices are a little higher but most items seem to be worth the cost. The cheese section is amazing and also has sausage, honey, pickles, and jellys!

Used to be a fun place to visit. Went there Friday and found some old cookie cutters like the ones my mom gave me but someone stole from me. Anyway paid for them and asked for a receipt from the card machine and the young lady said she didn’t know how to get one. So I left with a receipt from the register. Not one from the card machine. Not right. I won’t be going back.

I must have passed by the place on my way to work ,about 1000 times, and never did I stop to visit the Rustic Dairyland Antiques shop. It's possibly a great place, if rustic dairyland antiques are your thing.If I ever do have a hankering to partake in some hardcore antiquing, Rustic Dairyland Antiques will be the first place I go.However, I cannot say good things about Rustic Dairyland Antiques, because I have no actual experience shopping there.I would say that I've heard great things about the variety and selection of antiques at Rustic Dairyland Antiques, but I have not.Nobody I know has ever spoken to me about their experience at Rustic Dairyland Antiques, so I have not heard good things about their customer service, hours of operation, or if any handicap parking is available or not.Maybe someone who has stopped to shop at Rustic Dairyland Antiques will write a better review than I have, and then we will all know more about Rustic Dairyland Antiques.Until then, this review will have to be sufficient.

Over priced, store staff stalks you like we're all thieves.

My boyfriend and I have spent hundreds of dollars at the antique mall and after this past visit I’m not sure if we’ll ever be back. Beware-items are placed poorly and if something falls and breaks due to poor placement you will be expected to buy it. Customer service has always been poor but this is the final straw, truly upsetting.

Love going to this place, it’s much bigger on the inside and there’s so much stuff to look through and see! The staff is really kind every time we come in and we always find new stuff each time we visit. One of the best antique malls in the area!

I do not recommend this antique mall due to the fact that it is filled with mostly junk. Also, due to the attention skills of the vendors, they place product on top of each other. And God forbid anything falls and breaks while you're near it. You will be expected to pay, without any understanding that it was the vendors fault. I also need to add that the customer service and employees at this establishment are very rude and unprofessional. I Do not recommend.

Today was the first time I've ever been out there today. The staff is very very again very nice and helpful. Although some of the booths were high priced, a large portion of them had a discount ranging from 10% to 50% (that I noticed). I would highly recommend this place and plan to go back again.

EDIT: Returned recently and it seems like they have new owners, who seem much more welcoming. Cheese counter has been removed and replaced with more antique booths. Prices are still a little high and it's not very big.This place used to be very good but, since the pandemic, it's lost its charm. We came here last year and you could tell that barely anything had turned over and the staff was rather cool. We visited again this month and they were queuing people up and asking for names "for capacity" and were clearly militant about masks. Again, not much had turned over, some of the vendors were gone, and prices were a little high.Hope they turn it around and be more welcoming again.

I've always loved this place! Great antiques and collectibles. My son loves to get war medals and military artifacts there. The staff is super friendly and helpful!

Wonderful experience. The Lady who greeted us was funny and engaging and helpful. The layout was as spacious as any antique market can be and the amount of items for sale was nearly overwhelming. The Gentleman in the Cheese Shop was also very personable and despite what the other lady said, he actually opened up his shop on time. The only problem was that there were so many treasures there that I ended up spending too much money 😊 thanks!

Always enjoy spending an hour or two looking for treasures here. Stop in every few months or so and always seem to find something new or something I missed seeing the last time. Vendors prices are reasonable for the items being purchased. Well laid out/organized store. Folks at the counter always helpful and friendly. A must stop for anyone in the area.

Been a while since last time we had stopped there. It was great. A lot to see and many deals were available. Really well lit. Will have to stop in more often.
