History

Established in 1996.

Old Bryan Marketplace’s home is one of the most

well known old buildings in Historic Downtown Bryan. Built in 1908 and added on to five times, this rambling 22,000 square foot building received a labor of love makeover in 1996 when purchased by Kay Conlee. Awards have come Kay’s way as she has worked to make her corner of Downtown the very best it can be an Historic Preservation Award in 1996, Newman 10 in 1998 and the first recipient of the Downtown Impact Award in 2000 have all encouraged her passion and energy for her own business and the revitalization of the Downtown area. All three of her children, Allison, Whitney and Grant, have at some point worked and added to the Marketplace. In December 2003, Grant came home to add his full time energy and creativity to the store. a visit to Historic Downtown Bryan — specifically Old Bryan Marketplace where the quality, beauty and friendly service will welcome you. In Kay’s eyes, a trip to Old Bryan Marketplace.

This place is a visual delight, from the trendy warehouse of the old brick walls, to the aged creaking wooden floors. Merchandise is displayed as visually pleasing partitions to segment the varied stock. The plus is that everything looks beautifully placed, the minus is that everything is so tightly packed that walking can be an adventure… and there is also an adjoining trendy restaurant too (not reviewed here). The merchandise is hardly exclusive; you can get these things most anywhere, so don’t be fooled by price mark downs that show you what a great «deal» you’re getting.
All that being said, enjoy wandering the store and buy something beautiful and wonderful for your home that you absolutely don’t need, but you want anyway. From kitchen to living room and everything in between, I’m sure you’ll find something to make you smile.
Oh wow, almost forgot!!! You MUST go during the holiday season! The beauty of everything in the store is enhanced by the holiday music that just seems to create an aire of whimsy… that and the smell of spiced apple cider will certainly make you want to stay and wander the place.

BCS. Amazing selections of gifts, candles, beddings, furniture and much more. Very cool experience !

Visually — 5** Vignettes galore — from gift, home, infants, cards, kitchen, furnishings, hostess, clothing, jewelry and even a café. The rustic charm of the building along with creaking wood floors were great.
Price wise and value — 1* Being in the industry and aware of price points and/​or if it’s that «one of a kind» item — this store misses the mark in my book. They either believe their items are so special they don’t want to part with it or its priced for a yearly half off sale…

Cute things in here but so incredibly over priced! I understand you get what you pay for, but how is a candle stick $ 405… And marked down to clearance for $ 175?! Lots of very pretty pieces but a buffet starts around $ 3600… If you have more money than sense you’d love this place.
Staff can be haughty… And completely ignore you and no where to be found if you don’t look like you’re going to spend any money.

Nice items but the ladies working the register could not be less pleasant. Very quick to let you know how annoyed they are to have to put down their phone to ring up your purchase.

Had never had the chance to shop at this place before as it had always been closed when eating at Peter Madden’s Casual Gourmet. Peter Maddens Casual Gourmet is actually inside the Old Bryan Marketplace, the furniture department itself is just a doorway away from the kitchen, dining are a portal away and today it smelled very powerfully like bacon in here with the jovial sounds of wise lunch eaters that know where the great local food can be found.
The selection of items is awe striking. A very, very large store. You can fully furnish a home here, add something to your book collection, find some kinda antiques /​more uniques, eat some awesome food and everything in between. If you are wealthy, this is a place you will not doubt enjoy.

I really love this place. The clothes, jewelry, home scents, furniture, accent pieces, all are incredibly beautiful. I definitely love the jewelry. It’s all beautifully made and ecclectic, like pretty much everything in the shop. The home scents are almost all lovely, except for a couple of notable exceptions that I will mention below. The furniture is elegant reproductions of antiques or repurposing of antiques. This is also true of the accent pieces. Every piece made me want it horribly. This is a most dangerous store. Good thing my husband was with me, as if he was not, I may have lost all reason.
I am not giving it 5 stars because of a few cons. First, for reproductions, the prices are extremely high. Some of them eyewateringly so. But, you can get some great ideas here, so I can’t ding it more. Lastly, in the linen section, they were burning a candle that was supposed to smell like suede. Instead it smelled strongly of burning electrical insulation. It made my eyes sting and choked me. As a result, I could not shop in that section of the store. Oh well, there was much more to look at and I could easily get away from the smell.
I will go back here every time I go to Bryan.

We like a lot of the pieces that are on sale here, but as young professionals a few things are out of our price range. Nonetheless, you get a sense that the buyers have a good sense of style and quality.
We purchased a beautiful library table (to use as a dining table) and it was at a greatly reduced price (I recommend the «SALE» area in the back of the store). The saleswoman wasn’t pushy, but was very friendly and understood that it was a large purchase we’d have to think about. When I called a few days later, they were happy to take my credit card information over the phone and then had no problem delivering it for us (at a modest cost). In fact, the same saleswoman that helped us showed up with the delivery guys — talk about service!
We’ll definitely return and likely purchase more when we have more disposable income… ;)
