Katydid's

This was a fun place for us today. We had never been here before - but now we will go back. It was fun reminiscing about things we remembered from our childhoods! Are we really that old?! 🙂

Mini bar, tiki type sign, and coca-cola bar stools and table and I'm on my way to an awlsome entertainment spot for family and friends!!!!! Love this place!!!! I think it is called the
M43 Mercantile now.

A great selection of records in a few booths. Plenty of interesting trinkets, and a great young man working the front counter. Found a rare Beatles album, and a pair of shoes for my toddler all under the same roof. Very good time.

When I'm in the mood to indulge myself in antiques, vintage and nostalgia, I come to M-43 Mercantile (formerly Katydid's). Located in Bangor, MI, I can travel scenic M-43 from Kalamazoo and be there in around 40 minutes. There is a casual, relaxed feel to this place and I'm almost always greeted by someone working there when I come in. Once inside, I always feel transported to another time. I usually spend a good two hours here, leisurely strolling the booths. And there are many! A relatively recent addition to this antique mall is the opening of their upper level, containing several more booths. There really is a lot to see and a lot of creativity on display. I am usually on the hunt for antique and vintage home decor items, as well as vintage pictures and books. I also love farmhouse style, and there is plenty of that, too. There is a section on the first floor that is reserved for larger furniture pieces, and I'm always delighted to see what they have. This is usually the area where I grab a bag of their free popcorn, which I'm a sucker for once I smell it! The only problem I have with this store is that there is too much temptation for someone who has a weakness for antiques, crafty, kitschy and anything old. I never can leave empty-handed.

Lovely place with wide variety of items. Most things were reasonably priced. It's a well put together store although most booths had vintage and some garage sale type stuff. I'll go again.

Great friendly service! Wonderful selection, something for everyone. The owners really care that you have a great shopping experience. I've been back a few times. Will go back again!

So much to choose from. Something for everyone and every price level. Crafts, antiques, all kinds of neat things. It's decorated for the holiday season right now and really enjoyed walking around seeing items from across generations. I could have browsed for hours!

Love this place. A must see on my trips to the lake. Their product line changes constantly. Prices are good, always a bargain to be found! Great place to unwind and shop. Miss this place when I'm gone over the winter!

Very nice, enjoyed my journey down memory lane. This was my first visit here and had a great time. Clean store and helpful staff. We shall return!

The booths were spacious. Lot of items to look at. Great variety. Very well lit. Air is fresh not stale. Second visit. More to come.

No longer Katydid's. Now the Mercantile. I was impressed by the amount of antiques & furniture. Prices are better tan expected & they have some seasonal craft items. Lots of booths have a sale going too.

Super great place for vintage and hand crafted items! Very clean, beautiful vendor sections, friendly and helpful staff! Very big! Lots of great things! MUST VISIT!

Best antique store in the area by far Adam and Darcie are wonderful people with outstanding customer service if you are into antiques I would highly recommend you stopping by and check them out! You won’t regret it kudos to that store.

They went out of their way to find something for me. Although it wasn't in the store they found what I was looking for in a storage barn out in the snow! Nice selection of items.

This place is amazing. Great people work there that will go out of their way to help and just give you a smile!!!

Nice people, fair prices, cute vendor booths with something for everyone. Can't wait to visit again!

Best place ever!! So much to see and buy. Wonderful staff. A must visit.
