They always have the best stuff and the best prices! Everyone is nice and helpful. Definitely something for everyone. There's auctions on Tuesday and Friday. Saturdays is just flea markets and is open rain or shine. They have a huge indoor area and plenty of tables outside. There's also a huge amish deli and food market.

Spence's is a great farmers market to stop by when they're open! I went looking for shoo fly pie and did find one. Not the best I've had but still good. Everything else we walked by looked delicious and I'll be able to try a few of the other stands out! Prices are fair and the staff is nice and helpful.

I liked this place. Obviously a lot of locals did too. There's fresh hot food inside made by the Amish community. I had a pretzel with cheese sauce and some little smokies wrapped in dough. They were so good. I wish I got more of the smokies... so tasty. I didn't want to wait in the long line for the breakfast sandwiches. Apparently they were pretty popular. Freshly made. I went crazy buying baked goods. Walnut brownies, sticky buns, lemon bars and wooopie pies! So. Very. Good. Oh, I also got a slice of the coconut walnut cake. Yum! The prices weren't great, I felt like it was a bit pricey for the baked goods, but that didn't stop me from buying them The candy store had fun candy. Some nostalgic candy as well as fudge, chocolate, and even chocolate covered bacon ! The pretzels and smokies and breakfast "roll ups" were reasonably priced. I liked watching the ladies make them from scratch. I saw a bunch of "yard sale" items outside and found things that I liked, but I was told that I couldn't buy anything because it was all up for auction. I found some things that I liked, but it was hot and it took quite a while for the auction to move along so I didn't stick around . There were items for sale inside the building and on the outside. I found a bucket hat for my baby grandson and some toys for my other grandkids in the new item sales area. There are used and new items for sale inside. It's worth taking a look. There's a woman (Carolyn?) who makes leather earrings and handmade bucket hats. Don't leave without checking out her items. She does a great job. This is a great place to visit if you have some time to kill.

This is a pretty cool place to stop and visit while in Delaware. You can find food items, baked goods, coffee, preserves, etc. The other side of the bazaar has rummage sale type of items. People set up their sections and either sell clothing (new and used), house items (furniture, decor), etc. You can definitely find some rare finds. If you are not from the area, you will notice that many of the vendors are Amish or Mennonites and they are wearing traditional outfits which ia pretty cool as it is not something you see on the west coast often. I suggest to not point and stare as this is not meant to make anyone feel uncomfortable. If you are curious, it is usually ok to ask as long as you are doing it in a respectful way. Keep in mind, no one wants to feel like they are part of a zoo or freak show. A must try, the stuffed pretzel vendors. The stuffed pretzels are very very good. They have different varieties.

This is a Charming little place. They have fantastic meats and pastries and cute little counters where you can get either hot or cold food. Everyone is so nice and helpful and prices are reasonable. We opted for two breakfast sandwiches without the bun. I chose the chicken sausage with peppers and onions and my husband chose the chicken sausage with spinach and feta. I would say that the sausage with peppers and onions was well-balanced and extremely generous with the size. I wouldn't be surprised if the Sausage Patty was a third of a pound. My husband sausage was very tasty as well however I couldn't taste the feta. Still I would definitely encourage you to give it a try. I appreciate the fact that I can get good food here that isn't pumped full of a whole bunch of chemicals. It definitely gives me peace of mind putting dinner on the table and knowing that my family is eating healthy. The building is definitely old and really showing its wear but it was still a fun experience.

An interesting adventure! There are three parts to this location: indoor farmers market, indoor antiques and flea market, and outdoor flea market. The indoor farmers market is the best part. There are all kinds of Amish-made goodies; cheeses, butter, meats, candy, spices, pretzels, donuts, breads, pastries, you name it. My only regret is that I didn't have enough room in my stomach to try more! The breakfast sandwich was quite tasty, as was the pecan sticky bun and cinnamon cider donut. The outdoor market was expansive but the only thing of interest I found were the occasional booths from local farmers with offerings like fresh locally grown peaches, melons, corn, squashes, string beans, etc. You might find a bargain here or there on a knick knack or used DVD or something, but it's nothing worth getting excited about. As for the indoor flea market, they have everything from antiques to Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. It's an interesting treasure trove of offerings that could be worth an afternoon of browsing, but it's pretty musty in there. All in all, I think it's worth a stop if only to explore and eat at the Amish market.
