Where We Shop, What We Love, and Where We Stop


Round Top Antiques Week is one of the most exciting sourcing events for all designers, collectors, and vintage lovers. Spanning miles of fields, barns, and tents along Highway 237, the show brings together thousands of vendors selling everything from European antiques to vintage textiles, art, furniture, and one-of-a-kind decor.

Every season, we make the trip to Round Top to source pieces for client projects, gather design inspiration, and hunt for special finds. Over the years, we’ve developed a list of favorite venues we always visit.


Here’s our Round Top guide, including the venues we love to shop and the restaurants we always make time to visit while we’re in town.

Our Favorite Round Top Venues


The Arbors

Address: 2120 N State Hwy 237, Round Top, TX

Spring 2026 Dates: March 14 – 28

The Arbors is one of our must-stop locations every season. The venue features a series of large white tents filled with around 100 vendors selling antiques, furniture, art, fashion, and decor.

It’s beautifully curated and easy to walk, and you could easily spend hours exploring booth after booth.


Excess I & Excess II

Excess I: 3907 Texas Hwy 237, Round Top, TX

Excess II: 145 Rohde Rd, Round Top, TX

Spring 2026 Dates: March 16 – 28

Excess always has a great mix of vendors and a slightly more eclectic feel than some of the larger shows. We love browsing here because you’ll find a blend of high-end antiques alongside more approachable vintage pieces, making it great for both inspiration and sourcing.


Marburger Farm Antique Show

Address: 2248 Texas Hwy 237, Round Top, TX

Spring 2026 Dates: March 24 – 28

Marburger is one of the largest and most thoughtfully organized shows during Antiques Week, hosting roughly 350 vendors. We love coming here for great design inspiration and to source truly unique statement pieces for projects. The quality and selection here are incredible.


Blue Hills

Address: 475 Texas Hwy 237 S, Carmine, TX

Spring 2026 Dates: March 14 – 28

Blue Hills is one of the biggest venues and offers a great mix of furnishings, fashion, and food.

We’ve found some incredible pieces here over the years, including vintage doors, French antiques, and beautiful linens. While you’re there, be sure to stop by Honest Cotton, one of our favorite brands for timeless clothing staples.


The Horseshoe

Address: 2545 Texas Hwy 237, Round Top, TX

Spring 2026 Dates: March 12 – 28

The Horseshoe opens earlier than many of the other venues, making it a great place to start your Round Top trip.

Expect a mix of antiques, vintage pieces, and collectibles, with plenty of interesting finds throughout the venue.


The Compound

Address: 2550 S State Hwy 237, Round Top, TX

Spring 2026 Dates: March 14 – 28

The Compound sits on a 57-acre property hosting antiques and art events.

We especially love the art, but we’ve also come across some really beautiful vintage accessories here that are perfect for styling shelves and kitchens.


Bar W Fields / Warrenton

Address: 4001 Texas Hwy 237, Warrenton, TX

Spring 2026 Dates: Generally mid-March through late March

This is the classic Round Top field shopping experience.

Warrenton features hundreds of vendors set up across open fields and tents, and it’s where you’ll often find the best prices... but be prepared to have to dig a little.

Pro Tip: Bring water and wear comfortable shoes!

Where We Eat During Round Top

When we drive up for a quick day trip, our routine is usually pretty simple: coffee on the drive up, bites at the venues throughout the day, and a stop for something quick on the way home.
