Awesome place and excellent food!! Definitely will be going back !!!
Stopped in Kenny’s today, what a great place !!! Can’t wait for his restaurant to open in 6 weeks. See you then Kenny ! Very cool place you have.
Cute little place. The cheese burgers were tasty. The staff was friendly and attentive. We changed our order to go at the last minute with no hassle due to an impending rainstorm that we didn’t want to get stuck in. Thank you for being open on the 4th! We will be back!
Stopped for information. Great conversation with owner.
Wings were a lil on spicy side but good. And ff could have cooked a few minutes longer.
Unique place. 4 stars because I haven’t tried the sandwiches…yet.
3. Art’s Music Shop, Inc
Address: 1001 Commons Dr #2, Dothan, AL 36303 , Clayton , Alabama , United States
Outstanding customer service! Beautiful selections. Love this place because I feel like they listen to hear me instead of just to tell me what they think. I appreciated the great conversations.
Great selection!
Very helpful and courteous to children who show an interest in music
Very good customer service
Check it out
My child has had his instrument on the repair shelf at scoggins middle school for 3 weeks (I even called arts) and no one has been there to repair instruments. We are charged extra for insurance through art when financing these instruments. So why are you people not going out and repairing them on Wednesday’s as promised? It’s just a lie to get more money out of the parents. I’d advise everyone to elsewhere and avoid this company if I were you .
If I could rate lower I would. Deceiving practices. Do not do business with this place.
Way over priced.shop at Mike’s music or online.
4. Metro Music
Address: 155 S St Andrews St, Dothan, AL 36301 , Clayton , Alabama , United States
It was a Fantastic experience!! Met the owner and had a very nice conversation and spent to much Money
Only place I could find to work on one of my instruments, and has done excellent work with other instruments
Great store for guitars, basses, and all related equipment. Not like a chain music store that has twenty of the same thing on the wall. Lots of unique guitars and amps.
Only giving 4 stars because l never give 5. In the event I’m ever truly blown away by a business where am l to go if I’ve already peppered 5 stars everywhere…
That being said, I do repairs and mods from the house. So l usually order my supplies online. I was pleasantly surprised that metro had everything I needed to finish a job in a pinch. They hat the exact 500k pots and capacitors l needed in stock. Knew exactly what l was talking about and had it in my hand and out the door in less than five minutes. At a reasonable price too…
Not very well stocked. Had to go to a different music store for the rest of what my son needed for band, or I could wait a week.
Fun friendly staff

5. Mikes Music
Address: 2922 Ross Clark Cir, Dothan, AL 36301 , Clayton , Alabama , United States
The guys in there are really nice, and they were incredibly helpful getting me started on a new instrument. Very pleasant and knowledgeable
Great place, highly recommend going here if you need music equipment
Mr Mike was such a pleasure to work with. I came in looking for a pick Gaurd for my acoustic and left with that, three stands, and a slider! His store has such a wide variety of amazing products.
Great customer service and selection. We highly recommend Mike’s music. We have purchased several items and will be returning.
Came back for a second time hoping that it was better than a previous visit which occurred maybe a year ago. Nothing changed! Had a sarcastic attitude and told jokes. This guy has poor customer service. I wouldn’t dare step foot in there again after today.
Will never shop there again. He doesn’t stand behind his product. Brought a brand new keyboard from him and didn’t even have it for 2 months. All of the A#’s/Bb’s went out and he wouldn’t even take a look at it or even offer anything to help fix his shady product. Thought I found a place to get good quality instruments at a reasonable price but definitely was wrong. Now I have to spend more money on a new keyboard. I will never shop at Mike’s Music ever again.
6. Music Lessons with Jeff
Address: 2251 Joe Bruer Rd, Level Plains, AL 36322 , Clayton , Alabama , United States
Bob and Jason having been helping Homewood & Birmingham with musical instruments for so long ! Great place to buy and learn something new
Bob Tedrow is the best. From repairing my grandfather’s family heirloom guitar, to helping my daughter pick out a ukulele, Homewood Music is the perfect local music shop.
Time to relax
Good product, Good service.
Friendly atmosphere and lots of instruments.
I’ve never dealt with someone so rude over the phone. The owner tried to guilt me with sarcasm and acted like victim when I questioned a price. Full story: I asked to order a cello string. All was going well (owner answered questions about speed of shipping and availability of the string), but then he quoted a price ($81) that was far above what other shops charge. I said respectfully that “I’ve purchased the string for $45 at other walk-in shops” and he became sarcastic and argumentative with me, claiming he was “holding my hand” through the process, and said “Well, I have to pay $35 for this string so what do YOU think is fair for ME to make? $15? What is 35 + 15, huh? Ohhh, maybe $50 is more than you can afford?” A simple, “well this is my price” would have been fine as a response from him, but I felt disrespected so I hung up and decided I’m never going to spend a dime Homewood Musical Instrument Co. I advise everyone else to steer clear of this shop and the guy who owns it.
8. Bailey Brothers Music Company
Address: 4673 US-280 Suite # 7, Birmingham, AL 35242 , Clayton , Alabama , United States
Great place for electric & acoustic guitars with huge selection of amps also.Kevin is a wizard with guitars.Shop here before buying
Great people to do business, they were the only place in Alabama that could fix our churches Roland keyboard. Great service, thank you!!
Had just what I needed and little more.
Great customer service. Great selection. However, I was NOT thrilled to see their logo custom printed onto the snare head I bought. Would have received 5 stars if not for that. Going to remove it with some acetone.
Helpful and kind! Will be back to see them soon.
Good selection of musical equipment. Be prepared because they strictly enforce the muzzle mandate inside. They make you wear masks.
I would use profane language, but it would not adequately describe the crap this company pulled. Basically, I took my brother to trade a PRISTINE first-owner amp, and we could prove it, in for a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe, used, which is of equal value….and my brother coughed up $100.
I took off work to take him to initially buy the thing. I took off work to bring it in for repair when we discovered sticky crap on the power tubes, and I ended up working until 10PM thanks to these guys. They wanted me to take off work again, after having spent 5 hours in their store. I basically spoke up and said, he might be the customer, but I’m the wheelman, and I’m furious. I mentioned the fact of the wasted gas, wasted trips, and the at least 6 hours of driving they were expecting of me.
They checked OUR amp out very thoroughly, and even treated my brother like a criminal, saying they are getting his DL in case he stole it. SERIOUSLY people….
I tried to talk some business sense with them, asking them to do something for the trouble, and it would not have taken much. They said no. Then I asked if they can just reverse everything since ALL of the stuff was still in the store…. The guy made up a story of a law, which actually doesn’t exist, then claiming he has to charge extra to reverse it all. Guitar Center evidently doesn’t know about this (fake) law.
Not ONLY that, but the smug, d-bag attitude that the guy gave me when pushing my brother, his CUSTOMER aside to say “you don’t think we’re trying to rip you off do you?” He did this to put me on the spot, and tried to make me look like the bad guy.
In the end, my brother spent another $170 to get a new model. In the end, he got what he wanted, but we are both appalled by how the guy behaved to our faces. Beware, their used gear has NO warranty, but they represented at sale that they would ensure the gear works if something went wrong like the day we get it… Well… it did.
You don’t take someone’s $700 amp + $100 and then give them junk, and not try to do something proper after dragging someone thru hell. That’s the bottom line. I tried more than the guy at this store. You won’t catch us in that place again.
Considering the tens of thousands that my brother spent with other companies, Bailey Brothers missed an opportunity… Not good business. Dishonest, rude, and outright condescending. Smiled at us when we expressed our frustration with the runaround….
Don’t answer the phone
I left my guitar with this store in February 2012 for a simple repair. In June it was still hanging waiting for them to repair. I had been told on multiple occasions that it would be ready in just a few days. I picked it up today June 24, 2012 and no repair has been done and I was still charged a bench fee. This place sucks. I will never go in there again. Good luck if you do.

Everything a student needs to sharpen their craft.
Got told a U bass is rare yet at bailey brothers (within walking distance)I found two that were better quality and cheaper
Very helpful and knowledgeable!!
I called and they didnt answear
Attended a Breedlove Guitar Showcase. Art’s Music Shop in-store acoustic guitar lineup includes Breedlove, Michael Kelly, and Yamaha.
Very helpful and friendly
High pressure sales tactics on major purchases. Uncomfortable atmosphere throughout the store, once you state that you might not be purchasing item that day you might as well be dead to them. Stuck up to say the least. Support other businesses if at all possible.
Awful place, horrible customer service, and the insurance isn’t worth a damn! Gadsden Music is way better!
Took in my guitar to get set up and to get the fret buzz handled. They told me it would take them three days. I took it to them on a Monday and I called them Thursday. They hadn’t even gotten started on it. (They said it was school season but if you tell me three days then stick by what you say) I told them I needed it by Friday morning and they told me they’d have it ready. I go that Friday morning and it was “set up” apparently. They didn’t even do my intonation and I’m pretty sure they didn’t use the string gauge I requested. To make things worse the fret buzz was horrendous. Like my guitar was unplayable, even more than before. Horrible service to say the least. I absolutely do not recommend getting your guitars set up here. Downright disgusting.

Great store, family owned, wonderful people. I’ve been going here since the 1980s and will keep going back.
Best music store in mobile! Fast and friendly service!
Ordered a student percussion set. Good prices and really fast shipping in Alabama. Ordered on a Friday and it was at the door by Saturday afternoon. They were very responsive/communicative and I’m sure if I had any issues it would have been handled promptly. I would order from them again.
good
Helpful and freindly
Super friendly, wish there was more tama gear,super nice
“Andy’s Music”, simply awful service and a rip off. I purchased an expensive guitar (Ibanez Fireman) from their Amazon store, what a mistake. Andy’s Music claimed the guitar which was refused and returned at the dispatch office was damage and opened. After dozens of emails, they tried to charge me $100 for shipping and claimed they didn’t want to go through the hassle of putting in a claim with UPS. (the shipping was supposedly “free”) and then charged me $26 for outgoing shipping and $26 for return shipping. They sent me one terrible photo of the guitar and 8 random pictures of broken boxes to try to imply damage from the dispatcher. Their carrier, UPS mistake cost me $52.00 and Andy’s Music would not refund the shipping. I’ll never purchase from Andy’s Music again and you should be wary as well. I have purchased THOUSANDS of dollars of musical equipment from Amazon, and never had an issue until now…Andy’s Music is a rip off…
Andy’s is great if you know what you want, but don’t plan on testing anything. I had planned on buying an Epiphone half stack because the price was right and I needed something more powerful than my current amp. But I also had my eyes on two similarly priced Fender and Crate amps. In my limited experience with amp manufacturers, I wanted to test all three. I looked for about 15 minutes. I actually tested for about 10 minutes and at an appropriate sound level that was not obnoxiously loud.
Before I could decide on which one I wanted to spend money on with a limited budget of about $600 the sales rep came and suggested that I stop playing because the owner was becoming perturbed and that I was disturbing other customers. After looking around and realizing there were no other customers, I realized that either A) the sales rep was lying and being a jerk or B) the owner/manager was being a jerk. Either way, I decided that this was not a place that I wanted to give business to, so I took my business back home to Music-Go-Round in Mississippi where everyone is laid back and more than willing to help. I’ve even had the sales reps jam with me while testing out equipment there.
Granted, I’m not the most gifted guitarist, but what I play, I play well. There was no excuse for how I was treated. I’d take Guitar Center over Andy’s any day when it comes to music shops in Mobile.
Hello! I’m Rateing Andy’s Music, I’m rating Andy’s music 2 Star Because they have Rejected Mutiple people and Some of my Family Members. Just because of a Credit Check For a Instrument, I have a House with the Credit I have and I couldn’t get a Instrument. And They Basiclly could Scam Us because When they Decline Us they could still go to Out Application and they have our credit card information and They could Take or Use our Money.

Excellent customer service! Staff is very knowledgeable!!
staff are very helpful. they had exactly what I was looking for at a reasonable price.
ABSOLUTELY great place to shop. Outstanding customer service. They will go out of the way to make sure you are happy and have what you need. Being over an hour away, they took the time to make sure what we needed was there by the time we got there from their warehouse.
Talk with Clyde, he will make sure you are satisfied.
Good helpful people
My son buys all of his music equipment here.
Friendly but expensive
If you are looking for music instruments, and accessories, i promise you, you will pay FULL retail price. No discounts there. It dosen’t matter that accessories have a 70% mark up. The best thing to do is buy it online.
Rip off & don’t know measurements for nuts/ saddle’s probably anything just a store that takes suckers for a ride
No Gibson or fender really no variety.

Great place to go get all your guitar needs. Workers are super cool
When in to get some banjo picks
Support your local music store!!!!! This ain’t Guitar Center but who cares I don’t like Guitar Center anyway…. I’d much rather buy from these guys ! stop in, help em out!!!! Keep them in business!!! buy a guitar yeah!!!!!
Great place to do business…cant beat Eric on customer service
Good merchandise friendly people good Price’s.
I really hate to low star it because first time I went there had really good experience then went back for a truss rod adjustment with a different new guy and he was nice but he did not make improvements on my guitar he was not checking free play and had my guitar buzzing in 1st and 2nd fret had to come home and adjust myself and the adjustment cost 45$ that kinda high for 15 mins work but im still may go back and see what the 3rd experience is like then make a long term decision
Not a good experience at all, they have rescheduled my grandson twice, mind you we did not miss any sessions, they rescheduled us and then just took us off the schedule period. Carried my Grandson anyway thinking he was on schedule and Sage came in 10 minutes late and finished 5 minutes early…making it a 15 minute session instead of a 30 minute session as paid for. Spoke really negative to my Grandson and then refused any refund for missed sessions that THEY canceled. My Grandson loves everyone but does not want to go back, I’m saddened that because someone is a child that they are treated with less respect.
16. Jasper Music
Address: 52 N Walston Bridge Rd suite 104, Jasper, AL 35504 , Clayton , Alabama , United States
Nick has been fabulous as a guitar instructor for my son!
Highly recommend! Nick is a great music instructor and very knowledgeable in instrument repair. Great selection in accessories and instruments as well.
If you’re looking for a professional music service in Northwest Alabama, look no further. Nick is knowledgeable, professional and is a fantastic instructor. He has the uncanny ability to listen to, understand and then focus on the goals of you, the student.
I have also taken several instruments to Nick to be worked on, from a string change to a full set up on a new instrument. He has also repaired several that I’ve been a little rough with.
All in all, whether you’re looking for a lesson or just want to find a new piece of gear, this is the place to go!
The music store had the banjo strings I needed.
17. B&C Music

Very nice people work here. Their prices are competitive and I will buy here again
They have the best Rico reeds
David was very kind and extremely informative. He made my guitar shiny and hydrated and made her sound like a happy gal.
Over priced. Only good if you need to grab a pack of strings or something small last minute.
Excellent locally owned and operated business!
Eeeeh
this place is burnt!
I felt watched and rushed.Two women were working there that day, one was very friendly. I did not feel comfortable asking questions and also it was so hot in there.
Awful place with cheap brands and overpriced / broken used instruments.
