Bryant's is, hands down, my favorite place to antique!! Wonderful selection, well-presented, fair prices, and friendly staff. They have two warehouses worth of inventory. Men & women alike easily find fun trinkets or beautiful antique pieces to bring home.

No trip to North Georgia would be complete without this one-stop shop in Downtown Clayton. From hiking gear, Georgia made soaps/salves, socks, books, vinyls, and everything in between can be found here. Beautifully organized and meticulously maintained with great staff, this local favorite is a must do.
