I loved this store! The owner was so sweet and very helpful! He let me know that there are new items every day and I got so many cute and cheap finds. I definitely prefer this store over Goodwill.
Very good prices and super helpful and friendly staff! I definitely will be going again.
Owners are wonderful loving people. Store has a ton of different things to browse through, and pricing is very reasonable .
Neat little thrift store. Lots of glassware. Real friendly staff.
Great selection, well laid out shop
Extremely reasonable prices have almost anything and everything you could possibly look for if your I highly recommend it
This place is filthy. So gross I felt like I couldn’t touch anything. Extremely overpriced for the piles of junk they’re selling.
Everything was over priced, especially for 95% of it being used.
This store does not have a public restroom. I spend a lot of time shopping when I thrift and it’s a shame that I have to leave (or use the port-a-Jon) to use the bathroom. So my trip ended quickly and I will not drive back up there to finish shopping so I left empty handed.
2. Family Dollar
Address: 11110 US Hwy 41 S, Gibsonton, FL 33534 , Gibsonton , Florida , United States
The store employees are always friendly and helpful.
Under new management. Store looks better than before. Shelves being stocked daily. Since there is another new manage the store has gone down hill. New manager is rude. Store is trashy
Friendly store usually well stocked
Never answers phone even after calling straight for 2 to 3 hrs.When your on oxygen it’s hard to just jump in car and go there to see if they have something in stock you need or want.
Cheap , dirty place rude staff noone is ever at a register .
Employees are friendly, but the store is a wreck from a reset.
Predijuduce. Close to my subdivision that’s the only reason I come. Always dirty inside, and junky. The staff are not friendly and will walk away from their register and follow you around like you’re a thief when there are others in the store but because you’re black, it’s different. ♀️.
It is what you expect from a Family Dollar. It has basic groceries, household items, personal toiletry, shirts.. It’s incredibly dirty/dingy. It is an older style Family Dollar though that’s not an excuse.
3. Bullfrog Creek Bar and Liquors
Address: 11210 US Hwy 41 S, Gibsonton, FL 33534 , Gibsonton , Florida , United States
Ok place ppl like 2 be all in your business n they stare at u. Lol
People are nice prices not bad either.
Smokey and sometimes sketchy. The service is great and the drinks are cheap, but you’ll walk out of there reeking of cigarettes. The attached liquor store is pretty cool!
I think it’s for old retired bar veterans who sip n/a drinks,,,
I havent been to the bar just the liquor store attached to it well what can I say it’s close convenient and the pricing is decent
Awful place
4. The Vibe Music Store
Address: 6126 N U.S. Hwy 41, Apollo Beach, FL 33572 , Gibsonton , Florida , United States
Best people you can find, very knowledgeable, great prices.
a nice comfortable atmosphere awsome vintage and new guitars as well as amps, strings and all the other music store supplies.
Doti and Terry are wonderful! I love family friendly small businesses.
Been there 3 times at a normal hr after work at around 3-4 pm. Every time door was locked 2 times saw someone inside who did not come to the door. I was ready to purchase a new guitar with. Cash in hand each time. Also get my drum kit repaired. So willing to spend quite a bit of cash. So disappointed. Closest store to me. My money went elsewhere.i will not step foot in this place if the doors are open.
We have left three voicemails in the last week to see about music lessons for my child and not once have they returned a call. No one ever answers the phone. Doubtful they can stay in business with these practices. We won’t be calling again.
turned away because i refused to wear a face diaper. when you want to return to reality, I’ll happily come in for a guitar lesson. Thanks.
5. Marty’s Vintage Guitars LLC
Address: 10910 Wildcat Dr, Riverview, FL 33579 , Gibsonton , Florida , United States
Marty did a great job repairing my guitar. I highly recommend him for repairs and setup.
Getting fiddle repaired and tuned
Great experience using Marty recently for professional set up and other work on several guitars, both electric and acoustic. He is very knowledgeable and does excellent work with a quick turn around. Marty also takes time to answer questions, discuss options for guitar repairs and makes suggestions for better sound and playability.
6. Mary’s Thrift Store
Address: 11125 US Hwy 41 S, Gibsonton, FL 33534 , Gibsonton , Florida , United States
Ms. Mary was very nice and pleasant. I was in there finding out about her store hours and an incident I was investigating.
She told me she’s closed every Monday.
We had a pleasant conversation and I left for church after I found some pearls I purchased.
I’m sure there are alot of hidden treasures in her thrift store, please check her out.
Place is huge…. parking is tough to get ….never enough cashiers inside.
Disorganized ughhhhh. If there isn’t Gunna be any help from more cashiers, Walmart should just install all self check out lines.
Its an average Wall Mart . My I.D has no a dress so they won’t cash my payroll checks where all the others along with Publix has no problem. It’s unfortunate because they are close to me and loose out on me s p ending money there when I get my check plus the service charge weekly along with my second job biweekly…. Oh well. Very average nothing special.
This store NEVER answers their phones. Like absolutely non of them. Other delivery departments cant even get in touch with them for the past 6 months at least. They send broken items through delivery. This store cannot handle a simple task of delivering groceries without issues that result in store visits anyway which defeats the entire point of having a delivery service. This is absolutely irritating. Walmart fix this before I become Amazon’s next best customer and cancel my subscription with you.
Empty shelves ….not stocked as well. Anytime you have to do a return without receipt they make YOU go searching for the same item in the store, bring back to customer service to wait in line yet again…and if you dont find said item in stock in their store (you know…because they aren’t up on inventory apparently) then they can’t seem to do the return. As if they can’t look it up in the system!
Absolutely terrible.
9. Music Showcase
Address: 402 Oakfield Dr, Brandon, FL 33511 , Gibsonton , Florida , United States
Friendly staff who is always willing to help and educate. Great selection of music and instruments.
Awesome place. Lots of percussion stuff and drum stuff. Plenty of pianos, guitars, lots of sticks, drum keys, any sort of hardware you need they have. The teachers are great, especially will the drum teacher. Highly recommend! Do wish they carried more marching percussion stuff, such as heads and stands, but none the less an amazing place that I enjoy going to every time!
First time going here. My son was interested in a guitar so we stopped by the store section and was greeted by Jordan. Made us feel welcome, gave us a tour of the place, was informative and still gave us space and time to decide on a specific guitar. We made a decision on a purchase Jordan was checking us out but this other gentleman that works there Jason was very overbearing over Jordan and didn’t give him a chance to do his job ( count the cash) which my husband had it all organized but this guy kept being annoying and finally decides to count the money himself ….( took him 3x to count the money right.) Sir let the guy do his job he was fine! And I did NOT appreciate Jason playing and mishandling the guitar we were purchasing right in front of us….. very un professional. Aside from that. This place was very welcoming. Jordan did an amazing job! We will be definitely looking into taking guitar and piano classes just because the whole environment of it all was nice, chill and welcoming. Thanks again Jordan!
Lori was the best!!! Shouts out to Lori!!
Good clean store. When I was there there was no one who could find the music I was looking for.
Got the strings needed.Thanks for the services. Few music books are missed.
I rented a saxophone from them and paid $1034 dollars toward it. My child didn’t want to pursue the instrument further so I wanted to exchange it for a guitar. The salesperson informed me that I could exchange the sax for half the amount I had paid on the sax, but I had to pay $34 for repairs to the sax before I could make the exchange. They didn’t have any full size guitars and I was told they would not be getting more any time soon. The only guitars they had were 3/4 size for $249 or half the value of the exchange. I was told that I would need to talk to someone in finance to discuss the difference, but they should work something out for me. After several phone calls and emails I was contacted 3 weeks later via email that the exchange could only be performed on one instrument and that the remaining balance could not be carried over for anything else.
Not my idea of a good business practice. Oh, and the guitar I purchased its online everywhere for $120 – $150. So in the end I paid $1134 for a $120 guitar.
My first experience was the absolute worst customer service I’ve ever experienced in my life. I needed drumsticks the person behind the counter who didn’t even acknowledge when we came in refused to hand sticks out of the case and let me hold them and he stood over me like a vulture. I have tried several times to come to this place and was excited but will never ever spend a penny here these are the rudest worst customer service people I’ve ever experienced in my life
Not happy with em today at all. They were out of what we needed and when asking about it, the response was….ran out 2 weeks ago. Who waits 2 weeks to place an order when schools are in session? Grr Ugh just not thrilled with em today at all.
They have some of the greatest movies of all time there!!!! Like ‘black panther’ and ‘jumanji’! For a really great price like literally for like only 2.00 like for real so its really great and helpful because its next to a gestation
14. AUDIO PLUS – Car audio and Window Tint
Address: Behind Racetrack, 10050 Gibsonton Dr, Riverview, FL 33578 , Gibsonton , Florida , United States
I searched for a JL Audio dealer, found them open on the weekend, came in needing a few things, or so I thought… left with a more cost effective solution to complete my install. They’ve got my business for life!
I just had the best experience of my life here at Audio Plus here in Riverview! I brought in my Chevy 454SS to have a stereo installed and these guys absolutely blew me away with their capabilities! I am over the moon happy with the job they did. The attention to detail is incredible. The job they did FAR exceeded my expectations! It looks absolutely factory and the sound is spectacular! Scale of 1-10 is a 15! Much love was given to this installation and hats off to the expertise and imagination for all the guys that took place in this build! Thanks a million to a very happy customer! Two very big thumbs up!
Great staff, quality work
I have a small fleet of for hire luxury vehicles. This is the shop I trust for tinting and audio upgrades. They do excellent work.
Nice place.
The gentleman there provided my cousin and I knowledgeable information on their packages for subwoofers for our cars and what can fit in the trunk space. Even though we didn’t order anything as of yet for speaker systems, we’re definitely considering their JAudio subwoofer systems as well as the amplifiers so we can have more bass in our cars, which my cousin drives a 300 and I drive a 200.
Called to try and see if I could come in and purchase an entire new audio set up for my truck. Gentlemen’s response “we’re booked for two weeks” and nothing else.
I don’t know if I’m tripping , but you can’t say that you install radios , and then scared to touch a certain radio . Took it to a shop 20 mins away install it at ease .
The website is misleading and prices are way above anyone else. They do not have tuning tools as the website says, I brought my system in to be tuned “by ear” and was charged $15 I then found someone with proper tools and knowledge of stereo systems and found that it was still clipping. They also turned up my bass boost on the amp which is a big no no. So I had my system tuned properly with a oscope and meter and it sounds way better. I have seen some of their installs and they look clean so that part is good but as far as the technical portion of audio tuning I wouldnt go there.
False statement from their website.. unless someones ear and bass boom bottom song is precise tools for the job?
“Audio and communication systems are becoming more integrated and complex. This has increased the need for more modern and precise tools. Trust that your system is in the hands of experts and you will love the results.”

Everything!!! Customer Service, Safety with the Pandemic, Great prices on everything from the new guitar for our Son for Christmas to the tuner to the guitar pick… this is a One Stop Shop with a Family feel that I will recommend to anyone looking for a Premier music experience 🙂
Great friendly service and had exactly what we needed. They changed out my sons guitar strings on the spot. Super knowledgeable!
I love this little music store! Owners are very sweet an know there stuff! They offer many maintance services an always do a great job. A gem in the rough.
17. BRANDON GUITAR GALLERY
Address: 902 W Robertson St B, Brandon, FL 33511 , Gibsonton , Florida , United States
Very friendly staff. I took my son’s guitar in for repairs and it works perfectly. Thank you.
Set up multiple guitars here. They always take care of me.
Great inventory, people, and prices. Just an awesome little shop. My 6 year old loves his new guitar!
Very small store, but the lady behind he counter was very friendly and helpful.
Small store, large selection of music equipment also lots of drum hardware. Staff is friendly. I always go there for the little things… connectors/ converters, Picks , etc.
They sell frames and guitar lessons. Their gallery of five guitars that appear to be the same is pitiful. Really nice frames though. It’s a gallery of frames.
Woman who worked was rude to us
Ditto to Sara’s review. I’m looking to buy a new nylon string acoustic so I thought I would check out this shop. The lady ignored me. She probably knows nothing about guitars since half the shop is dedicated to picture framing. Still no reason to diss a potential customer. They had some cool guitars, but so does Guitar Center. Guess who will be getting my money.
18. McDonald’s
Address: 9205 Gibsonton Dr, Gibsonton, FL 33534 , Gibsonton , Florida , United States
Clean fast great people. Ready to take orders and yells out number when ready. Mobile app is sometimes a wait depends on volume but very efficient. Your in and out when you have to be.
They’ve gotten pricy and they give little fries for large fries.
McDonald’s is what it is. McDonald’s. This one is no better or no worse than any other McDonald’s. Mediocre food. Sometimes it will be cold sometimes your lucky. Some of the staff is kind however i have had bad experiences with some staff as well. Overall OK.
Buena atención
Shame on me for not checking the bag but my order was not complete and noticed once we got to our destination. Better luck next time…
Take for ever
I found a hair in my pancakes trying to post a picture
19. Music & Arts
Address: 2452 W Brandon Blvd, Brandon, FL 33511 , Gibsonton , Florida , United States
Very nice staff, gave us a free oboe reed when they couldn’t pull it up on the system
Goodd
Needed to have my boss’s Strata-castor Fender guitar re-stringed and tuned made a few phone calls and this was the only place in Brandon I could find to have it done today. No wait and quick and friendly service. The young lady that helped me was very knowledgeable and fast. I am terrible with names but she definitely impressed me. Thank you for the fast and friendly service!
This is a great little place with friendly helpful staff. While the selection is somewhat limited the pricing is decent and they do have a good variety for the space they have. I would definitely do business with them again.
Good customer service
Nice, small music store, friendly staff with a variety of guitar options. The location of the store however is atrocious as Regency Square Mall is a very poorly designed store layout and to make the situation worse they design engineers created a mall with such poor means of entering and exiting the facility that the patrons get the privilege of sitting in long lines (usually 30-40 minutes) just to get to the 2 main exit roads so you can sit through multiple light changes before you can actually get out of this nightmare. Love the store, recommend moving to a better location.
I been going there for a while my daughter play oboes we use to rent from them untile we start rent from her school but stil go there for her reed every three four week every time good experience untile today so mad and disappointed never going back there reed was not working 17 dollar the lady won’t exchange it to me and give me 5 dollar discount where the reed I took was broken too went back said I didn’t open it broken they like oooh give me another and charge me 11 dollar what the hell there is sweet girl there was helping me when she saw me getting mad she like I don’t know why she charging you it was broken the box was open like what the hell didn’t argue just left am so disappointed sooooo disappointed I use to go there aloe not anymore time to find another store
This place is the worst music store I have ever went to the staff doesn’t even know what they have in stock I asked if they had kazoos and they didn’t even have 1 all they had was a over priced electric kazoo
Very bad experience with one of the music teachers named Donny Mayer, he start making fun of me on my 2nd class, very unprofessional calling me names like “Judas” and telling that I never going to learn how to play guitar, after I decided to try with someone else… they also make me pay $50 more to be able to cancel and stop my classes, of course classes that I never take and I never get my $ back, What a Waist of money! ☹️
