Tad's Westfield Shoppes

We found Tad's while exploring Westfield on a rainy Sunday afternoon. I enjoy browsing antique and home decor shops and Tad's didn't disappoint. Tad's sits back off the road on top of the hill just passed Big Hoffa's. Parking is located at the back of the building with a back and side entrance.This is a large space with two levels with a ramp to the second level. Booths are clean, well organized with an eclectic selection and affordable prices that are easy to find. Don't forget to go up the ramp and checkout all the treasures in this area if you enter from the back. There's so many great items here from nice quality antique furniture, mirrors, china, glassware, clocks, vintage clothing, signs, prints, paintings, pipes, cameras and about every collection you can image. You never know what you'll find. We had just purchased a growler from Field Brewery and found a new leather growler sleeve for $9. Had to purchase that! Right? If you enjoy browsing antique shops, stop in Tad's.

Although I have been to Big Hoffa's BBQ and the antique shoppes in that building, I had never stopped into Tad's which sits a bit higher up the hill beyond Hoffa's.Fortunately, it has its own gravel parking lot that has access to the back of the shoppe and you don't have to fight for a spot like you do for the BBQ.Inside, there are two general spaces: Upfront is a house converted into booths that you wind your way through to look at what is available; and the more open back of the shoppe which has rows of items with well spaced aisles that allow for easy access to the booths back there.Lots of antiques and collectibles can be found, though maybe not as much furniture as some comparably sized shoppes. We did see lots of toys, baseball cards, some clothing and knick knacks too. Up front they also have a room with chalk paint supplies for refinishing your furniture with a new look/color.The folks inside were very friendly and welcoming. Although we didn't make a purchase this time, I can see making time to go through this the next time I'm in the area.Review #3357

My stepdaughter and I decided to go vintage shopping on Saturday and we checked out the vintage and antique shops near Carmel. Our last stop was Tad's and we were fairly impressed with the selection. It is quite large with many booths and a wide assortment of merchandise. We were greeted as we entered, offered a raffle ticket, and a coffee and sweet. My stepdaughter was looking for something specific, which we didn't find, however there were many things to look at and enjoy throughout the mall. The prices seemed reasonable at the items I looked at. However, I found a book I was interested in; inquired as to whether the seller would offer any discount, the gentleman working the check out area said he would inquire. I stopped by before I was ready to leave and he hadn't checked for me.

Very kind and conversational staff. Large shop with dreamy antiques. Can't wait to come back when I'm in town

The larger antique mall across the parking lot is now a bbq that we will eventually have to check out. Tads is bigger than it looks from the outside. Took about an hour to walk thru. Lots of variety.

What an awesome antique mall. Helpful and courteous employees. It's a pretty big place. I recommend it!

Great place to find used name brand Furniture, Art Work, & Home Decor. The owner Joe is a good guy to work with on finding you interesting pieces on a budget.

Used to be my brother's church. New church is on 191st St. Before it became a church it was horse auction house.Lots of neat things to look at. Can easily get turned around.

Lots of neat stuff, orderly and clean. Old fashioned candy there too! And always a fun store to visit before or after a meal at Big Hoffas BBQ.

This was the third antique store in the area that I stopped at today. The other 2 were phenomenal. I enjoyed looking throughout the store and made a purchase. My disappointment was at the checkout process and the 20 minute (at least) wait for the person in front of me to get finished. I had cash in hand and there were 2 employees. Yet one employee had to talk about her work interests, peel off stickers, ring her up, charge her card, give her a paper to write to the vendor, wait for her to finish, box up and go hold the door. I was not recognized in word or action. If I hadn't needed the item as a gift, I would have left. If I had been the lady being waited on, this would have been a much different review. However service was a bit discriminatory.
