Near our house is the Westside Market, and I’ve been aware of it for a while now. However, I didn’t take the family to visit until fairly recently. It’s a massive warehouse that feels like an artsy flea market, with countless vendor booths. Most of them are unmanned, and you simply bring your items to the front desk, much like in a traditional store.

They also have a coffee shop set up in a converted camper. It’s absolutely charming, though I don’t think my wife enjoyed her drink as much as she enjoys a trip to Starbucks.

This is definitely a place I’d recommend to anyone in the Greenville, SC area. We had something similar when I lived in Spartanburg, SC, but this one is far grander, nicer, and cleaner than that spot.
