Flea market adventure that has been a staple in the area for years. Don't usually find anything when I go there. I look around and then get something to eat at the amish stand. There pork chops and sausage sandwiches are definately worth stopping for but go early. It is very busy at lunch time. The amish baked . goods... More

thought it would have more people/stuff. seems to be just the same people who never sell or dust their stuff. sad little flea market. the good part is the amish food area. good food, love the little doughnuts! that area is closed on sundays so keep that in mind when going.

If I lived here I'd be there weekly for produce and the Amish baked goods and meats... however, since I don't we enjoyed the "flea market/antiquing" in some of the other buildings. Found some great OLD books for a couple of bucks, a guy with decent golf clubs, and some great people. Tues, Fri, Sat until 3 ish

It's fun to go to Spencers occasionally. It's a big flea market, plus local farmers sell fruits and veggies and there are some restaurants including Amish foods. There is a lot of typical flea market "stuff", but occasionally you can find some interesting deals. We purchase some fruits and veggies here in the summer.

I enjoy shopping and I like flea markets so this place was alot of fun. There is something for everyone here. There are buildinging for Amish food markets (butcher, bakery, and more). Large barnes contain clothing and furniture. Outside there are vendors everywhere selling produce, plants, antiques and collectibles. I almost bought a JC Higgins cooler. This place is worth... More

I just happened to walking through the barn and found a lot of furniture for sale. I brought back my son and bought him all the furniture he needed for his new apartment. They have quality furniture at very reasonable prices!!! This is one of the best kept secrets for buying very nice furniture. I went back the next week... More

When we drove up to the flea market we didn't see but two buildings. Boy, what a big surprise I got when we got into the buildings. The bazaar has just about everything and anything you could want. I bought some paperback books very cheaply from a wonderful and very helpful gentlemen. He also helped me find my book preferences... More
