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.

Of course the show American pickers Drew us here. But the contents of the shop itself was a bit touristy too much for my taste. The selection of antiquities that were for sale were large pieces and not normal antique that you would find in an average antique shop. This is a great place to find large items or a business decor or for a local persons home. For the traveler looking for small items to take with you the only thing that you will find are souvenirs and t-shirts that are specifically produced for sale and not antiques oddities or curiosities.

Neat place, cool to see stuff in there that you seen them pick. It’s also located in the old Marathon Building, pretty cool place. Next door is a Harley Davidson store as well. Just in case you just need a poker chip and shirt, this will save you time instead of going to the actual dealership. Good food not far from here as well. Check out the Gulch area.

A must see for fans of American Pickers! The store is just beautiful and its so much fun to see the displays with items you watched them discover on the show! Just expect the marketing merchandise to be a little pricier than average.

If you like the show then you gotta go! It was awesome to see items that you’ve seen on the show- I enjoyed that they had typed up captions for some of the items and info on the episode. I felt like they sold more of their own schwagg than their picks- - it didn’t seem like they had a lot of their picked items here- possibly more of a tourist spot than a place where people appreciate the picks? Either way - a mist see if you’re in Nashville ♥️

Really a great place with a lot of purchase options. We found a great gun shop with knives that were amazing. Picked up a couple of t-shirts for souvenirs and all around. Enjoyed the antiques that were scattered throughout the facility. Definitely would suggest a visit

Loved coming here! Ive been to this store twice and the one in LeClair once. Take your time looking around. There are small things everywhere that you might miss. Always look up! If you are a fan of the show you may see things you remember being picked. The staff are incredibly nice. Worth a visit!

The whole experience here was overall emotionally upsetting to me at the time I visited. Hence the stars. I hope that establishments like this remain existing for people seeking nostalgia and history! I encourage everyone to take some time to speak with their family members about some of their own antiques! Dust it off and shine it up. There really is some amazing heritage and culture to experience in family! Hope everyone has an opportunity to seek it!

Small shop. Love the show. Some memorabilia from the show. Would like to have seen more. Lots of parking lots and distilleries in the same strip. A couple different parking lots but the $10 guy is really nice and friendly.

The location is perfect for their ideal of preserving old rusty things. The store is small but contains many iconic items seen on the show. There are not many antiques for sale or maybe I came too late in the day. The store seems to rely more on their merch sales. I purchased a few small items. Definitely walk through the building, the history of it is cool and the shops are worth checking out!

A lot has changed since I was here last. Some of the items are still here from my visit about ten years ago. The store has added a lot more souvenir items for purchase. The staff here were friendly. It was nice to see the addition of additional stores / things to do while here.Parking: Please do not be inconsiderate. Be aware of the no parking signs. It makes it difficult for other cars to drive down this road and dangerous for the many pedestrians crossing the street when you decide to park where you want, instead of where you are supposed to park. There are options for free and paid parking.

A fun shop, especially if you know anything about the show! Pretty sure they sell trinkets more than their antiques but super fun!

Very well decorated and a great experience. The building has so much history. Definitely try and go out of your way and check out this spot.

A must see! Very cool shop. I remember the V.W. bike when they finally found it.

Nice little shop. Mostly there stuff, not a lot of antiques the average person could buy.

We are from Iowa and we have never been to the Antique Archaeology in our state. Great way to connect with the television program. Lots of items on display from the show. Fun times

We have been fans of American Pickers for years! So we finally drove from Indiana to see this place and we loved it! Its really cool to see all the stuff in there and recognize some of it from the American Pickers show! Its not very big, but it is worth checking out! And theres more next door in the same building too! The girl who worked there was really nice and helpful...and she is beautiful too! So I highly recommend checking this place out!

Whole reason we came to Nashville was so the Old Man could visit this store lol. Its smaller than I expected but great location with lots of other places to visit in the same building.

Beautiful shop. Full of memorabilia and some nice gifts for the family. The store i small but the employees are friendly and helpful.

Gorgeous old building. But not a whole lot of items for sale. A-lot of the store had store merchandise, set up for tourists. Not really a antique store vibe. Dont get me wrong it all looked nice, but not many items reasonably priced. A bit disappointed.

Im an avid watcher of American Pickers. I love the show so much and I just HAD TO visit their Nashville store while we were in town. It was well worth it. My only complaint is that there arent very many small affordable picks. Most of the things you can buy are just t shirts and coasters and magnets...the actual picks are all hundreds and thousands of dollars and way too big to fit in your car. I also wish I couldve met anyone from the show but the staff was all really friendly and helpful. I bought a t-shirt and it is SO SOFT I shouldve bought more, its my new favorite shirt. I might try to buy more online.

Just had to go! Addicted to the show. Didnt know that my folks were pickers till Frank and Mike came along. Thanks dudes! The store is not very big. Lots of cool, reasonably priced AA merch, but not a ton of found items that I saw except for some big stuff. Still a cool store. (I Spent too much $$ LOL) Everyone was very friendly and helpful. A bit of a destination but definitely worth the trip.

Awesome place to go! The whole Mercantile building has really cool stores to shop around at. Only downside is they charge you $10 to park

Very cool to get to see this place in person! I was a little disappointed though in the size of the location and with the items on hand for sale. There were very few actual antiques for sale as most inventory was focused on Antique Archaeology branded merchandise.

It was cool to see all the old stuff that the store was very small and over crowded. The building that it is in very very cool .

Cool little spot! Be sure to walk across the street to see some old cars and the little strip mall! Great history!

This place was pretty cool. Its a big tourist trap, which was to be expected but there was alot of the props from the show there. Its a fun place to stop especially if a fan of the show. Id recommend the stop.

It was very cool...just wish I could have met Danielle and Frank and Mike but hey it was cool to see some stuff from the show..... great place

Great place to see some of the picks from the show. There is merch to buy if youre a fan of the show! Great shopping, a couple distillery places and a wine tasting in this area also!

Very interesting.Definitely not what I expected.NFS... Unless you want a T-shirt.... Maybe a sticker or two... 🤨🤔

A great place to get Picker swag.Everyone loves the Pickers!

Loved it...! Saw items from the show I watched last night....that what gave me the ideal to go there while in Nashville

Was able to see things from the show very small but with the rest of the places in the building also make it a great place to visit.

Awesome place. Full of amazing antiques.

Highly disappointed. Hardly anything for sale from the show ( out of the thousands of items Ive watched them buy). Mostly a place to buy shirts or coffee mugs.Oh well, didnt need those...

Exactly what I was expecting. Friendly people and lots of antiques. It was cool that some of the items were labeled with the episode they were picked from. We purchased some items that we watched the guys pick. Only thing that would have been better would have been to meet the guys...or Dani

So fun seeing it in person!! Everyone was real friendly and they had some great stuff.

This was a bit of a disappointment. Its mostly just named, bulked merchandise. Not much of what they have bought themselves, though there is some of that. Just overloaded with corporate type merch. We did enjoy it, and we did get some corporate items bc im sure thats what most of us like for souvenirs but Thats my fiance wanted something the guys bought, he ended up finding an old gas cap as a souvenir. Cool place to check out. Overall a great place, just not what I expected. I would recommend checking it out though.

Much smaller than expected but service was great and there was a lot to see.

Fun store. Not huge. Interesting to see some items picked on the show. We thought it was worth the visit.

If you have followed the Pickers since 2010 like I have, you will like the store. It has a lot of items from their picks, some labeled with the purchase date, to jog your memory. Lots of souvenirs to purchase. You could spend about 45 mins to an hour there.

Parking is $3 per hour across the street. Store is small, lots of other shops in the building.

Was not disappointed in this area. A much bigger area to explore and walk through than just the antique archeology store. Many shops. All unique in their items . A great place to find good souvenirs or gifts .

Neat shop in Marathon place selling mainly merchandise and apparel.

Lots of souvenirs from the American Pickers TV show, plus theres neighboring shops in this historic assembly plant.

Cool place to go to if your in nashville

Friendly, helpful employees, beautiful displays...items from the show are on display and can be purchased!

Very cool place to go visit unique things in there you can also buy things nice staff

Great place to spend a little time while in Nashville

We are big fans of the show American Pickers and we love Mike, Frank and the whole gang, so we couldnt pass up visiting Antique Archaeology, while vacationing in Nashville. It has a lot of souvenir type items there, which is what most visitors are looking for and can afford, BUT they had a good amount of genuine picked items and we recognized a number of them from shows we watched. If you are a fan of the show, I would definitely suggest stopping in. The even bigger thing to do if you are into antiques is to go through the Marathon Motors building. The entire building is a museum with tons of antiques, shops and distilleries/wineries to visit.

It was awesome! I can only afford the key chain, stickers, hat, and coffee mug but thats ok🤣🤣🤣

We watch the show so while in Nashville decided to stop in. Smaller than we thought but a lot of neat stuff. Picked up a few things and then toured the old Marathon Motor Co bldg which the store is part of. Theyre turning it into a mall. Great displays and atmosphere. Great package visit.

They have Great items just as seen on the show. And the Marathon building is super cool too but when you see a shot of this HUGE building on the show, you imagine they got the whole building packed with goodies. But it’s just way smaller than I thought. Super cool stuff though and displayed nicely. Still love AP and what you guys are doing.

Its great place for people like to see and shop antique product.

My husband and I love watching American Pickers.We traveled through Nashville on a trip just to visit the store, but I found myself a bit disappointed. I expected to see more picked merchandise and antiques, but felt like I mostly saw touristy souvenirs (I did buy a tshirt for my sister). What made the trip totally worthwhile was the old Marathon Motor Works building that houses the shop, as well as several others. There are many things on display from the motor works which are fascinating.

Highly recommend visiting here even my 3 and 5 year old grandkids enjoyed it

Great little shop visited here a couple times years ago if you enjoy the show then visit this place

Just ok...nothing to exciting to see and one of the girls working wasnt too friendly when we were trying to find a shirt size. Gave us the impression she didnt want us to look at them and if she had pulled herself away from the other coworkers she was just standing behind the counter and offered help we wouldnt of had to look ourselves. Not impressed

This is a cute place to go to if you want to see what you see on TV. A good place to buy souvenirs.

Kinda disappointing, some cool stuff from the show and Mikes collection but a lot of Antique Archaeologists merchandise.

1st time there or in Nashville at all!Beautifully displayed amazing relics that I have prolly seen picked on the show!It was a fun, friendly environment with some amazing history!Thank yall for sharing!

Cool picks, fun to see items that were picked on shows I watched! Staff really helpful and friendly.

Really enjoyed the stop. Lots of stores.Marathon cars actually across the street to look at for free..

Awesome store if your a fan of the PICKERS

Nice place kinda hard to find. They have only 1 sign on the door and it took us a few mins to find it. They have actual stuff from the show for sale. They even tell you what season and episode its from. Lots of smalls. Kinda a small space so you will bump into people. Overall a cool spot to visit if your a fan of the show.

Big fan of the show so we stopped by today on our way thru Nashville. Parked across the street for $10. Neat little shopping center with cool history. Be sure to go check out the Marathon cats in the corner building. Very cool! This was mostly a souvenir shop but did have some cool things things for sale.

Ive been to a lot of antique stores but none quite like this. Watched the show for years and this is more of a display for that then an actual antique store. Definitely some unique antiques but bring a big wallet!

As a fan of the show, I was delighted to shop around AAs store, being it my first time in Nashville. Items were cool to look at but only got a couple shirts, a hat, two poker chips with the logo, lapel and a free AA miniature bag.I think it would be a cool addition to sell signed photographs of the cast!Anyway, it was a great stop on vacation and will go back again.

Thought it would be bigger inside the store with more antique stuff, but still very neat to go see .

Very interesting things there. It was cool to see items in the store that I saw them pick on the TV show.

Best timein the mall andviewing all antiques

It was neat to see this place. There were some items from the show, but its mostly souvenirs. Still worth a visit. The old factory its located in is cool in itself with a bunch of little shops.

Great place, been here a couple times. Thet do have some picking items, but a lot of their items are promotional items like hats and shirts. Very cool building and surrounding businesses. Btw, we miss Frank!

Good idea to take a old assembly plant and make it into something that can still be used. Few shops are in it on the first floor to buy merchandise. Second level seems to be a place for the museum and more less walking type of businesses.

Was great. Watch the show and looks amazing. Was very packed so didnt get to stay long.

What a treat to visit the Antique Archaeology in Nashville. We walked in the door and immediately we recognized items from the show American Pickers. It was pretty cool to see. The shop itself isnt huge, but it is full of many interesting items. My favorite was the display of old motorcycle club jackets. I was hoping to see Mike Wolfe, the owner, but unfortunately he was out on a pick with Frank. The kind staff member did tell me that Mike does frequent the place often as he loves to talk with fans of the show and fellow pickers. One of the highlights of the shop is the gear you can buy with the logos and such. I bought my pops a mug and he was thrilled. To add to the experience Antique Archaeology Nashville is located in a mall that was converted from an old car factory. The whole mall is a museum of sorts. VERY COOL. If you are in the Nashville area, take so time to see AA in Nashville.

Love this place, as expected its mostly store brand merch for sale but still my favorite area in all of Nashville

Truly was so Bad I would Not even tell anyone to stop... Show is great but store is Not !

This was a day trip for my husband and me. We love to watch the show and both are history buffs. We drove 3 hours to go there. Extremely disappointed to find it was actually just a gift shop with them selling stuff with their logo. Very few antiques- not even a lot of small things. All the antiques were much higher than the average person could afford. Honestly, the best thing about it was the actual building. I enjoyed looking at the history of the car built there and seeing the old tools.

Great place to visit the whole complex is Nashville history to the max.

I do not watch American Pickers, so I assume I would enjoy this place more if I did! I have not been to the sister store in Iowa, so I can not offer a comparison between the two. However, I understand the one in Iowa would be regarded as the “flagship”. Neat selection of items, including some apparel for fans of the show. Another nice touch was that some items were actually featured in the show, and came with a little certificate stating the episode and season the item was shown on. Vintage items were all around us. If you are into antiques, this is definitely worth the visit. I thought the size of the shop was a bit on the small side, which was disappointing. The best surprise of this store was the area that it was in. Marathon Village, which appeared to be a repurposed factory plant of some sort, was chocked full different shops and snack places. Some favorites of mine were a location to do moonshine tasting, a Jack Daniels store, and an ice cream shop. Overall, I would say the store alone is only worth a visit to fans of the show American Pickers. However, if you are looking to kill and hour or two and do a little souvenir shopping, this is a great place to stop in as part of the whole Marathon Village.

We were passing thru nashville and decided to stop for a minute and I am glad we did. It was definitely cool to see the place that I have seen on tv but the building was worth the stop!! The store was neat to see but it was a little pricey I thought anyways!!

Awesome experience! Was so neat to see items that I watched Mike and Frank pick on American Pickers. Bought a few t-shirts and a key chain at reasonable prices. Convenient parking. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Will definitely visit again!

Very cool place only sorry we didnt have more time to spend there we are on a golf cart tour and he only gave us 15 minutes and during our time in Nashville we did not have a chance to return here.

Love the show, so it was neat to visit one of the stores. But not as interesting as I was expecting. The merchandise seemed mostly to consist of mass produced souvenir trinkets and lacked the originality as the show portrays. Maybe all the good stuff is at the other location? But it did make a cool photo op, so still worth the trip if you are a fan of the show and find yourself around the Nashville area.

Cool place. Met Mike. He was very personable and was great to my kid. Had no idea I would get to see so many other cool shops at the same place. Check out Marathon Motor Co. Very cool.

Great stop. We loved visiting Antique Archaeology while in Nashville. Unfortunately there was nothing we wanted to buy today but I am sure we will be back on our next trip. Super cool building they are in. It is the old Marathon motors plant that has been reloved and is part museum and part retail shops.

A fun place to visit if you are fans of the show. They had many pieces that were shown on the show as well as affordable branded merchandise to bring home to your family.

Very cool gift shop/old finds...

So cool to see the store finally.Great experience and very friendly staff.

Very cool place. Only 4 stars because its more of a t-shirt & merchandise shop than an antique or vintage shop. Very small amount of picked items available for purchase at the shop. Its also pretty small. The decor is awesome & as expected. Definitely worth the stop & the entire building is cool making the location wicked!

We watch Mike and Frank all the time on American Pickers. It was really cool that when we walked in we saw several items they had picked on the show especially Wolf Boy!!

After watching American Pickers for years and knowing that they have 2 stores with Nashville being the newest and the one I was able to visit, I was disappointed in both the size and the inventory. The building that the shop is housed in was very cool, but the shop itself was a disappointment. I had such high hopes for the experience.

Although this is primarily a gift shop, there are still quite a few treasures on display. I can understand why some people are disappointed when they discover that this isn’t an actual American Pickers storefront. The real “artifacts” aren’t actually for sale, so this is more of a gift shop with some cool things to look at. It’s still worth a stop if you are in the area.

Overall it is cool to go here once. Literally only once though! They have some cool things inside from the show, but of course they arent for sale. They do have a couple items from the show for sale, but they are crazy priced. Its items you would never use or want, it would honestly only be for the story of getting it from the pickers.They do have a lot of shirts, keychains, ect. you can buy that are like souvenirs. They are kinda high, but worth it if you want one.*****But dont plan on going to Nashville specifically for the store! Only go if you are going to Nashville anyway!!*****

Loved the atmosphere, just wished they had more signs for sale. Enjoyed the Jack Daniels shop next door and had an excellent ice cream cone. Worth the visit!

I’m looking forward to visiting the Nashville store May 13-15th in between a business trip. Enjoyed Iowa a few years ago. Mike, Frank and Danielle and their teams do more than people realize by watching a TV show. They also do more for their communities than what they see on TV. Such good people, icons to many. I can’t wait to pick with them sometime in the near future from Kansas or when they need a vacation day. 🚲⚒⛏

Very very small. Not at all like it is made out to be. Nice employees though. Dont buy the little red keychains that you look in. 2 of the 3 I bought were empty with no picture inside. What a waste of money

Great store!Glad I had chance to visit while passing through the state. Been watching show since it began.

It was cool of course but little smaller than I thought it would be. Nice & interesting pieces. Merchandise was great but pricey...$4 for a sticker?It took 15 min to look around and I was out!
