While many of the antique shops on Brewster's Main St are well curated and cater to those looking to spend some money, Antiques by the Bay is a delightfully cluttered hodgepodge of inexpensive goodies from yesteryear. It's the perfect place for those who don't know what they're looking for but are excited to search for it. Call ahead in winter.
