Still a great place for music, movies, and pop-culture gear! Great deals on them too!
Great place to get movies and other things from
I would’ve given it 5 stars but too expensive so 4 stars instead.
Could use some help with organization, especially clearance and sales.
The cost is ridiculous for most items in that store. It’s not the hot store it once was.
Beware of shopping here! They offered me a percentage off my total if I signed up for a “free rewards program” (FYE Backstage) which is NOT free and I began getting a magazine delivered to my house. I checked my bank records (the card I used at FYE) and noticed FYE gave my credit card information to this magazine without my consent and had been charging me for these magazines. They are scamming people here! God knows who else they gave my card information to. Stay away from their “rewards program”!!!!!!
Did not find my favorites of my genre it was a waste of time ,travel and search less ,too much of today’s stuff but the greats sell more than now ,it was a clean place and personal was helpful ,but downloads are not even good for much of the songs are not the same versions ,or length has been shorten. Take me back to my real times fun,love ,music and choices…
Molly and Scott are both fine luthiers that care about the finest details in repairing stringed instruments. We are very fortunate to have them in central Florida!
Thank you again Molly for your expertise and advice regarding my violin and bows. We are grateful that you and Scott take such care and pride in your work, and your customers. It is admirable that you are carrying on the luthier tradition, following in your father’s footsteps. Your shop is a tremendous asset to our community.

Great bunch of people working there. Was nice to meet some of the group that provides my music and videos.
Great place to network with DJs
As a professional and Performing DJ, Promo only has been my primary source of music for the past 20 years. Great customer service, and the great value to my business.
It’s aight.
Went for an interview, managers seemed very new, un organized, and seemed more interested in my social life than my work ethic.
8. American Music
Address: 667 Florida Central Pkwy, Longwood, FL 32750 , Altamonte Springs , Florida , United States
Rachel did an incredible job, adding an elegance to our wedding ceremony. As soon as she started playing “Beauty and The Beast” while the Bride was walking down the aisle, the groom and others started to tear up. She also learned a special Filipino song (Forevermore by Side A) for us which meant the world to us!
Outstanding!!! She was very professional. I would definitely recommend using her again.
Rachel was so great to work with! She showed up and played beautiful music and was even ready to play the songs that the DJ was supposed to play when they couldn’t get their sound system! She was also great at communicating before hand so that everything ran smoothly on wedding day. As a wedding planner, I always appreciate working with vendors that I know I can trust to show up and do an amazing job!
10. Evor Entertainment
Address: Wild Fern Dr, Longwood, FL 32779 , Altamonte Springs , Florida , United States
Great place for both beginners and advanced players. The staff is very welcoming and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend R&R!!
Learning to play the guitar was on my bucket list. I stumbled on this gem and was able to easily check off that item from my list. This shop has a very cool local business vibe with personal service that you can’t find with the larger companies. Rob, the owner, was extremely accommodating and welcoming. He helped me find the perfect guitar to begin my lessons at his shop which are AMAZING with Joel ! It’s something to look forward to each week. Just a few months into lessons and I’m enjoying the growth and outlet the music has given me. I’ve been trying out a few Taylor’s from the shop in search of the right fit for my next guitar. That’s something I wouldn’t be able to do elsewhere. Thanks R and R!
Im am so glad I walked into this store . Rob is one of the nicest guys you will meet , and he is the owner. Rob has been more than helpful in every way with all my guitar and drum concerns, he is mainly guitar but he will give guidance and help for any musical concern. . His advice is always spot on , honest and accurate. If you need anything music oriented try him out . Support locally owned businesses!
Replaced strings of my daughter’s guitar. Did not tune at all. Poor communication. Was on the phone while checking me out and had difficulty asking / answering questions. Stated would clean up guitar that had been in storage but wasn’t touched. Took several days to replace strings. Would not go here again. Poor service
13. Pawn Time & Jewelry
Address: 1191 E Altamonte Dr, Altamonte Springs, FL 32701 , Altamonte Springs , Florida , United States
I, normally, never rate my experiences as a 5 but Rick at Pawn Time delivers a 5 star worthy rating. I bought my wife a Rolex for our anniversary and we are extremely delighted.
love it
Rick was super informative for me today. Went above and beyond to not only help me understand what I had but also help me from making future poor purchase decisions. I’d definitely recommend stopping by this shop.
Rick wouldn’t take my tools, but he was very knowledgeable and was a sympathetic ear for the shady tactics used on me from other stores
Very reasonable. Gave me a decent and fair price for my silver.
Horrible customer service. Very rude, and highly over priced used stuff. Save your money and go to a real jeweler.
Tried to rip me off, I know the value of my silver coins!
Looked clean but very small, not much there; was closed for lunch when we stopped by.
14. Best Buy
Address: 597 W State Rd 436, Altamonte Springs, FL 32714 , Altamonte Springs , Florida , United States
Big box appliance and electronics store lots of staff
Quick in and out.
Great cleaning store helpful staff but always very expensive.
Better than the one in Sanford anyway. Staff are barely sentient, definitely not knowledgeable about where products are. Found the “out of stock” Chromecast Audio on a random end cap myself, thanks.
Best Buy employees are a hit or miss when it comes to help. The business never seems to have what I’m looking for. They’re always “out of stock” And I go back weeks later and they still don’t have it.
We’ve had issues with in store staff giving false information and geek squad warranties this year. It’s been a fight to get appliances fixed when we bought extended warranties. That’s if your lucky enough to not be hung up on multiple times and can even get them on the phone. Tonight was the worst experience I’ve ever had at a curbside pickup. They brought out orders to cars extremely out of order. People arriving after you got their orders first. Waited an hour and a half to watch at least 7 people arriving after me get their orders. After the hour mark I had been there the longest and yet my small order wasn’t brought out. I understand stores get busy but orders should come out in the order people got there to wait.
ABSOLUTELY NOBODY asked my son or I if we needed help. What happened to customer service SMH
15. Big Money Livin Productions
Address: 675 Douglas Ave, Altamonte Springs, FL 32714 , Altamonte Springs , Florida , United States
If you are like I was and thought YouTube would teach you what you need to know, you couldn’t be more wrong. Having someone there to guide your fingers and watch and guide your technique is crucial to your advancement. He’s been amazing and I’m enjoying this new hobby so much more.
As a younger business owner I was narrow minded and assumed my product was all that was important. I have learned since that my business is successful because of my integrity. They equals my business expectations but more than that it has earned an integrity that can’t be compared in the business world.
All of the staff has been great to deal with, from the front desk to the other instructors, and I foresee taking lessons here for years. If you’ve ever wanted to just try drumming, they offer a crash course as well as a longer 101 class, and private instruction for continuing students. I highly recommend
I believed that I would never be able to incorporate music lessons into my calendar as a working mother with a busy schedule. But I’ve been able to fit in weekly voice lessons without sacrificing work or family time because of Taylor’s flexible schedule and online session alternatives. And it’s changed the game, I tell you. Taylor is an expert at customizing his courses to meet the needs and schedules of each student, and he’s always open to last-minute rescheduling or modifications when things get busy.
I made the decision to take piano lessons, and it has truly been a wonderful choice. The instructor’s evident passion for music and invaluable guidance have played a significant role in my progress.
17. Corzic Music
Address: 705 W State Rd 434 B, Longwood, FL 32750 , Altamonte Springs , Florida , United States
This is one fantastic music store!! I recently brought my elec guitar i love, for them to work out some minor issues. These guys are great!! They listened to my issues, fixed them and even stepped me through the process of how they did it. Plays fantastic now! If Guitar Center or Sam Ash had this level of customer service, they wouldnt have much competition. This is an hour and a half drive for me, but even with stupid high gas prices, I will be going to Corzic Music for all of my instrument needs!!!
Amazing new music store with friendly and knowledgeable staff. What makes this place special is its the only place in Central Florida that you can get your guitars/basses PLEK’D (Basically a perfect setup) with a better price than having a some guy do a “setup”. Will be buying my next acoustic here since they also PLEK your purchase at no additional cost.
Just got my green meanie back from the PLEK shop. Wow. Ridiculously amazing. This time, they nailed it. Just made a tiny adjust to the action and boom… it’s sick. Every note sings. Thanks Corzic Music in Longwood, FL!
18. Music Shack
Address: 702 S US Hwy 17 92, Longwood, FL 32750 , Altamonte Springs , Florida , United States
I had a flute that hadn’t been used in years since a relative passed away. My grandson decided to play the flute. So Cleve repaired it by doing a complete overhaul. It’s amazing. Thank you Cleve for taking the time to repair this important instrument for us.
Professional and easy to work with. We have rented since my son was in the 8th grade and lessons for the last year. Great group of educators.
We rent an instrument for our daughter from Music Shack. Music Shack offers great customer service and we have been very happy with the responsiveness!
The staff were easy going and helpful .
Friendly staff, knowledgeable of their products, good variety for a small store.
Great customer service!!
Awful customer service. Sons middle school tried to push this business for band rentals. I called early on a business morning and Received their voicemail. I left a message and it’s been days where no one could handle to spend a few minutes to contact me back. I rather bring my money elsewhere.
Edited to respond to owner. Yes I’m aware everywhere is short staffed due to Covid. That’s why I was ok with waiting DAYS for a response but never got one. You did not hear my voicemail yesterday because like I said , I left it last week and have gone DAYS without the business following up. I was patient and understood that due to Covid I might not get anyone to answer their business phone immediately. I waited DAYS for the business to be able to catch up and respond to me but was left in the dark. If I can’t get a question answered before handing over my money, why would I trust that once you have my business I could get through to you for any rental issues in the future. Like I said I will seek other places.
Went for sax repair. Took about 20 minutes just to drop off sax and purchase one item. Sax repair was overpriced and only partially complete. Was partially ready two days after promised. Phil, who does the repair kindly explained to me that it was my fault the repair was not complete and that for an additional fee he would complete the repair. Worst customer experience I’ve had in a very long time. Will not be back.
Very disorganized, have you running all over the place to just get one simple equipment.
19. Pianimals, Inc.
Address: Kerry Ct, Altamonte Springs, FL 32714 , Altamonte Springs , Florida , United States
These guys are doing a great job with customers. Wonderful selection of Kawai pianos, good teachers, and a very knowledgeable staff!
Refreshing to have a piano store so conveniently located at the Towne Center Mall in Sanford. Piano Expo has a very helpful and knowledgeable staff and some really great pianos. The Concert Performer digitals are incredible!
Great staff, marvelous pianos and a beautiful showroom. Best place in Central Florida to purchase a quality instrument at surprisingly reasonable prices.
