    We’ve been watching American Pickers for years so to get to see many of the items they bought on the show was pretty cool. A lot of items are labeled with the show info on them. They are not for sale. There’s a lot that is for sale too. There’s also souvenir items like shirts, stickers etc. We got to see the squid before the episode aired bc they already had it on display. Then the episode aired 2 weeks later. Very cool!

    It was so nice to visit the store we’ve heard about so many years from watching American Pickers. I was surprised that the store wasn’t a lot larger. Perhaps they have plans to expand once the building is remodeled. But definitely worth the stop!

    It's an interesting place with many unique items, much of which came from actual TV episodes, however If you're a fan of the show you might be more interested in just getting some souvenirs. Much of what's on display is part of Mike's personal collection and is not for sale. It would be great if these items were displayed in a separate section in sort of a museum type setting.

    I've watched my fair share of Pickers, so why not stop in. It's nice. It's not special and it's not very big. It is probably 1/4 T-shirt shop, which is understandable, but for being a setting for a good TV show, I'm not sure it's worth the 10-15 minutes. But if you watch the show, it's worth the photos.

    We were passing through Nashville and thought we would stop by because we love the show. They displayed a lot of the items that were on the show. We bought a couple souvenirs for family members and for us. We use Google maps to find the location which made it very easy. Parking does cost but I thought it was reasonable. There were other things at that locations to see. Parking was $3 an hour. I would suggest two to three hours parking to see everything at that location.

    I am giving one star less for two reasons: 1. The store has poor selection of the merchandise. Extremely limited choice. 2. Too many signs like "Do not touch" or "Do not seat " turned my shopping experience into the first grade back flash. Lol Overall, it's OK one time stop. I liked the show a few years back and personally expected more to see. It worth to visit if you are already in Nashville.

    They have trash for sale from their tv show. What is from the show starts about $250 on up. The stuff that has a reasonable price are not antiques or collectibles. They are from Mike Wolf's brand, those items you can order online. Save your money. Buy from an antique or pawn store not here.

    This place was awesome! So much history and lots to see. We came because of the trolley tour. I want to come back, we didn’t have a bunch of time so couldn’t see everything, but what we did see was great!

    Loved visiting Antique Archeology when I was in Nashville. I mostly stopped in for some merchandise because of the connection with American Pickers but I really enjoyed looked at all of the antiques and vintage things on display. It’s worth the trip out there and they’re based in the Marathon Motor Works building so there’s great automotive history there and several other nice shops. Stop by the Tennessee Legend Distillery next door too for a free flight of whisky. We took the Old Town Trolley tour to Antique Archeology and that’s a great way to get there because they drop you off right at their front door.

    I took the hop on hop off bus tour and this is one of the stops. Had a blast. Probably spent about 45 minutes in the store. Love seeing all the finds that I've seen them pick up on TV. Well worth the trip and if I had not had to catch the bus. I probably would have stayed longer

    Very interesting place to visit if you're a fan of the show. There is plenty of parking and there are more shops inside the building.

  • 5/5 brytney d. 7 months ago on Google
    I love this place! Beautifully setup, lots of antiques if you take your time and make sure to look up and down!

  • 4/5 Ashley S. 1 year ago on Google
    Yes, the antiques are definitely over market rate, but you're paying for the experience. There are also a bunch of other shops and dining venues in the same building to round out your time there. I would recommend picking up a sandwich to go and making a short drive over to Centennial Park for a picnic lunch with a view of the Nashville Parthenon. I think it's worthwhile to go once, but I don't think there's a need to go for a second visit.

  • 5/5 Jeff B. 7 months ago on Google
    It's nice to visit but it is my opinion the are absolutely trying to capitalize on the TV show. They sell lots of Antique Archaeology items and they display NFS items. The items that are obtained on the road are marked up dramatically.

  • 3/5 Tim S. 8 months ago on Google
    Very disappointed with this place. Store was smaller than expected. I'd say at least 30% of what was for sale was souvenir stuff for the store. Other "antique" stuff was BIG. Not a lot of "smalls" as they say. No reason for me to ever come back here. But I guess you have to visit once.

  • 4/5 Cynthia L M. 7 months ago on Google
    It was cool, some items we looked at for ourselves we thought were too pricey. I'll say this though my interaction with the sales clerks was quite fun. They made the trip fun

  • 3/5 Poshpadz The L. 7 months ago on Google
    Not as great as expected, was cool building, but the actual shop was very small and not much of interest to purchase. The building had a great whiskey Distillery shop, a Jack Daniel's store and a few more interesting places to pop into.

  • 3/5 lauren l. 1 year ago on Google
    Was fun to get off the trolley to go inside. Was disappointed how small it was, as outwardly it appears to be the whole building. Antique prices crazy high, along with any souvenir. Guess it's a been there,done that place. Candy store next door closed, looked like small deli and coffee shop next door.

  • 5/5 The Fab F. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to visit, lots of shops to peruse through, lots of great information on the building itself, A lot of time and effort was put into this building and it shows. If you're in the area, it is definitely a place you won't want to miss. There is parking across the street, for a small fee, if you like bourbons, don't miss the shops inside, and take yourself for a taste testing! Loved seeing Antique Archeology in person. Easily a place where you could spend a few hours getting lost in the shops, and reading all about the building.

  • 5/5 Ann W. 1 year ago on Google
    We've been there 2 to 3 times. We took friends there and they really enjoyed seeing all of the finds from the show. Was fun to hear them say "I remember that episode!" My husband and I did the same thing the first time we went. Just a fun place. Some day I hope to meet Mike Wolfe there! 😎🙂😉

  • 3/5 Mindy J. 1 year ago on Google
    Cool place to say you've been to. But as fans of the show, we're disappointed in the pricing of the novelty items... you know, small tourist merchandise. They are waaaay overpriced! Why y'all wanna gouge your fans?? I can see pricing antique or hard-to-find items at a high rate. But your baseline merch is ridiculously high. Do better!
