I recently heard about The Great Escape Madison's move to a new location and I happened to be in…read morethe area to check it out - and I'm glad I did. I found some great hard-to-find CD singles and full length LP's on CD that I've been looking for and didn't spend more than $15. Score! I didn't interact with too many employees but the one gentleman I spoke with twice was very nice. I love this new location and I feel a bit safer walking around this neighborhood also. A great idea by The Great Escape to move to this location which seems larger - always a good thing. I hope to come back when I have more time to browse and when my pocketbook allows.

Had an absolute blast at The Great Escape in Madison, TN!

The staff was super friendly and genuinely helpful without being pushy. You can tell they really love what they do. Whether you're browsing or hunting for something specific, this place is a gem. Can't wait to come back!

The clerk and mgr were rude and enforced the ridiculous refund policy as if a 60 y/o lady was trying rip them off. These guys were complete amateurs! When emailed, the district manager called and said he was "sorry" and he'd never had any trouble from these two before. I doubt that. FYE has issues. I'm done with them.

It has a…read morewell-organized vast selection of books and gifts, which reminded me of the Barnes & Noble bookstores in Cali. We were somewhat surprised to find Pop Mart blind boxes for sale, but these seem to be finding their way in many stores. Customer service on the floor was non-existent during our visit, but we really didn't need any help. Checkout at the register was quick and friendly. It's a nice location with other large retailers nearby -- Target, HomeGoods, TJMaxx, BestBuy, etc. Parking is not an issue in the large plaza.

This is my favorite store in this area. The fact that it's located so close to Costco and World…read moreMarket gives me an extra reason to come here. Selections- I love business books and self-help, while my husband is a total history nerd. This store has a really good range of all of those. They also carry a wide variety of cookbooks, romance (Emily Henry, Julia Quinn, anyone?), plenty of fiction, and even the popular ones trending on booktok too. Right from the bare minimum classics to spiritual books, religion, philosophy, and all that intellectual catnip, they have it all. Value- I love their deals the most, which also makes things a little difficult because they convinced me to buy more books than I originally signed up for! Why it matters- In an era where most books are accessible at our fingertips, I still love having physical copies of certain titles, and I'm so glad Books-A-Million is helping preserve that experience.

The staff and owners radiate friendliness, acceptance, and hospitality to all whom walk through the door. The shop is located on a side street in East Nashville, in what looks to be an old house. Therefore, parking is limited at times. I have come here 2-3 before, and they have a great selection of wide-stream music and local artists as well. The inside is filled with records and CD's filling shelves, bins, walls, and even the mantle of a fireplace. They also have a small stage and area to host events and live music inside. This year, We came here for Record Store Day 2024, and it was such a great event. We decided to come by around lunch time. They had vendors, food trucks, and live music set up around the shop. They were limiting the amount of people in the room with the RSD Titles; therefore, we waited in line for an hour to get into the store. That being said, this allowed for everyone to look through the bins leisurely. The staff and even the other customers were all so friendly! It was such a great experience, and we made so many memories this RSD! Support your local record store, and visit The Groove.

A few years ago they took over the old church in East Nashville where they house their collection of wonders. As you enter the front door to the right, you'll find the box sets, limited editions and record day specials, both in vinyl and cds. The middle is predominantly vinyl and the left are the cds, both new and used. At the far end of the building where the altar would have been is now a stage where they sometimes showcase mini concerts, cd release parties, and book signings. Downstairs you'll find a good selection of books concerning music, be it country, rock, blues, folk or jazz. There's biographies history and style, again both new or used. Against the side wall there's a huge variety of jazz and classical. They give you a very fair trade-in value on used books, cds, and vinyls. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. If you've never been there, you owe it to yourself to go and spend a couple hours!

So if you are trying to live that zero waste lifestyle you definitely want to put this place on your list to refill your canisters. The Madison Farm has partnered with them and so seasonal produce is available here (great when the Goodlettsville Farmer's Market is off for the season). They also have Christian study, devotional, and children's books. Great atmosphere, helpful staff, and unique vegetarian/healthful living finds.

This is a brand new shop, and I gotta tell ya, their selection is better than most shops three times their size. Here you will find QUALITY titles. What you won't see is a lot of records no one wants. Kudos to whoever is buying the stock for this little gem of a shop, because it's great stuff! This is not the type of shop where you will go in and dig for a very long time and come out with nothing. Everything is fairly priced as well. The owner is a nice dude who is always up for a good conversation about music. I love that. They have some other items as well, such as novelties, cigar box guitars, craft jewelry, etc... By all means, stop in here and give them some business. We NEED for them to hang around. I can't say enough about how great it is to have them in this part of town. Welcome, welcome, WELCOME!
