Allison Giddens

Owners are really nice, good peeps! Made Record Store Day super-fun! They've got a great selection of vinyl. Definitely recommend checking them out.

Andrey Kurenkov

Amazon place with a large variety of varied antique objects to look at combined with a ton of records and even a listening space where you can lounge and listen to different records. Just stopped by here with friends after lunch and wound up spending more than an hour just checking stuff out, would definitely return.

Jason Smith

Excellent shop to find some amazing and unique antiques. Looks small on the outside however quite larger on the inside. I love the variety of items and especially like to record section where they have an amazing collection of new and old.

Aaron Carver

Great store and very friendly, helpful staff. I always enjoy going through their current Playlist box (the one near the couch) for new artists to listen to.

Soy Vegana

What a fantastic place to stumble into. By chance we enjoyed the aesthetic of the storefront and came in. Ended up having wonderful conversations with all of the employees about life, music and photography. This is a must if you are in town. Fantastic vinyl collection, art and many other random needles in a haystack.

Reni Candelier

They sell film for cameras! The shop sells great quality cameras!

Barry Davis

Wonderful experience from the time we walked in to the time we walked out. Wonderful people who were extremely engaging and service oriented. I will forever remember their kindness and assistance.

Omar Torres

Pretty cool spot. They got a really good variety of vinyls.

Jayme B

Absolutely love Sweet Melissa Records. Not only do they have a great variety of music to pick from and listen to, but everyone there is so nice and helpful.

Recommended by a local friend, I found this store so interesting. Got some good vinyl to take with me back home.

I have never been honored with such an overwhelming record shop/antique store experience than I just had with Sweet Melissa's astonishing collection. I will Absolutely be revisiting the location multiple times a year for the rest of my days.

People often espouse and romanticize Mom and Pop local stores, and it's become increasingly rare in this day and age that the idea is realized. Sweet Melissa treats me well and are always happy to see me, greet me warmly, and genuinely ask how I'm doing. The enjoyment of music is an intense passion for me and the folks at Sweet Melissa are as well, they listen to as broad of a range of music as I do, an honestly I find that a more rare trait. Sincerely from the bottom of my heart thank you for always brightening my day and taking care of me. 🙌🙌😎

Morgan Vittitow

Best record shopping experience I've had since moving to Atlanta. The staff is so lovely, they really do love these vinyl and they are always spot on with their recommendations. They have a really good selection of Old, New and Rare. We go almost every weekend to see their new stock, and to hear what new gems will be recommended to us!

Shannon Brown

We absolutely adore this place and have been visiting them since summer when we discovered them. My older teens are very into vinyl records now so they get a lot of business from us. The staff is all very super friendly and knowledgeable and we will definitely keep going back! They have a TON of records, CDs, even cassette tapes! They also have old magazines and comics as well as antique items, like cameras, etc. A great mix of of old and new when it comes to music!!!

Buster Ray

Made a quick stop in after lunch.

Y Diz

Awesome selection and customer service. I went on Record Store Day this year because the other spot I went to only had 2 copies of the record I wanted that were sold before my turn (5th person in line). I ran across town and Sweet Melissa had at least 10 copies left after they had already been open for an hour and sold some im sure. Thanks for being so helpful and on point! And knowing how to stock your inventory properly. Will definitely be back

Chris Cotter

This is a sweet find. Great shop, they know what they are talking about when asking specific questions on vinyl and anything to do with listening and cleaning. If you have not been to this quaint store on Marietta square you are missing out!

Greg Lapps

Such an amazing vinyl collection. Plan to spend hours or days browsing unless you are looking for something specific. Fantastic!

Riant Films

Awesome store! They have really great items and records, i was on business trip and had a small break to explore around, and stumbled upon this gem and found my favorite Junior Murvin record! Really great reggae and overall vinyl collection. The owner was really nice and had a nice time talking with him! Thank you for the great service, i am loving the disc.

Michael Hetzel

A really unique shop that has a wide variety of records and antiques. The owners are really nice and helpful and super organized. The only reason for the four stars would be the prices are considerably higher than the competition. I would have bought way more had they been less. I understand they are downtown and not too many record stores near them. Still go and visit because they have some unique stock.

J.D. Hall

This place is amazing! Went there yesterday for the first time for record store day. Huge selection as well and the owners were some of the nicest people I've met. Will 100% be back

Jeff Harmon

Very friendly and cozy atmosphere. Nice people. Great, diverse selection of vinyl from new and used vintage to brand new current pop stuff. A ton of interesting box sets too. I will be back to help my kids build their collections.

wesley meier

What a charming shop! From the moment I walked in I was acknowledged as a customer which is something you don't see quite as often anymore unless you're at QuikTrip! then I was there for the final records so I went immediately to the back and started looking and the gentleman that acknowledged me when I arrived even following up on how I was doing. I digress though this place has a fantastic selection in vinyl records as well as other collectible items. the price of the merchandise is a little higher than what you may expect from some stores in the city or elsewhere but the huge array of obscure releases and things that you may not find anywhere else make it worth any extra cost you feel you may be paying. If you want good proper vinyl you pay the price for it! I can't wait to go back again what a great experience.

Mariah Mardis

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this amazing shop. This place has truly been the backbone to our experience here in Marietta the last 3 years. Not only do they have amazing antiques to browse they have an amazing selection of old and new records and refreshing book selection as well! This place is an over all Jem in the haystack that is Marietta. Melissa and Jim (along with their wonderful staff) make this place amazing and are the reason we got started in our vinyl/Polaroid obsession. Do not hesitate to pop in if you’re in the Marietta area! You definitely will not be disappointed. It’s with a heavy heart we are relocating. No record store could ever match the electric atmosphere sweet Melissa’s has to offer.

Josh Patton

Staff was friendly and kind. They were knowledgeable about the vinyl I chose and showed me recommendations of similar ones. Even better, they shared history about it with me and showed me relevant books and artwork. At no point did I feel pressured to buy anything they showed me. They let the product speak for itself.

Kerry Gray

Ended my 2019 going here for the 1st time. I loved this place. Many people do not understand some antiques can be a little pricey and the vinyl I purchased was worth my spend. Going back because there were a lot of records they had that are hard to find.

Chris Grant

Good selection of records, and well organized. Expect to pay about 3 times what you would pay anywhere else for used vinyl. New vinyl prices are on par with pretty much any other retail store.

Dani Logue

Great local stop for random antiques - china, antique jewelry & cameras, historical kitsch etc. Some antique/used books as well. Solid selection of both new and used records. Weekends can be congested. But it's always a nice pitstop while meandering Marietta Square.

Rastko K

Its a cool local shop, with a good vibe and nice selection. awesome place to burn a few hours browsing. That said, the prices are high, and don't trust the grading stickers that are on some of the records. I don't care how nice the sleeve is, You can't grade it a 9 if the record looks like it's been used as a furniture slider

Nick Schwarz

We love Sweet Melissa Records! The staff is always friendly and knows their frequent customers, and they have a great selection of new and used vintage albums. Hands down our favorite record store in the area!

Shaun Buescher

Super friendly with a very nice selection of new and used vinyls but is slightly over priced. Worth a visit for sure.

j burnsworth

From the great customer service, selection, and recommendations, this is the best record shop around.

Amanda Smith

There is so much to see in this store! It has a variety of everything from typewriters to books to guitars, records, phonograph speaker attachments, vintage cameras and binoculars and even a room for playing music. A new place I want to stop in everytime Im in the area. Fun experience.

Ryan Carr

Prices are definitely on the high side. Don't expect to find gems in the used section for less than $40. I've also been ignored by the owners numerous times and it feels like I'm bothering them if I ask a question. It's great that Marietta has a shop like this though.

A. Burnsworth

This record store is tucked in the back of an antique store. And. It's. The. Best. New records, old records, obscure records, trendy records, all the records...they've got them. A wealth of knowledge about what's what and killer music recommendations. A talented staff that makes me laugh and definitely one of my favorite places to be.

Paul

This is one of my favorite shops on the square. Jim, Melissa, and the staff are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet. There isn't a lot Jim doesn't know about music and audio so if you're looking for something new (or old) to listen to, or something to listen to it on, stop in and see them. You won't be disappointed.

Len Thompson

I have a 1915 Edison player. These records are hard to come by and Sweet Melissa's had some. The owner was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the player. If you're looking for a rare find or some new vinyl this is going to be your place. Not to mention the cool antiques in the front of the store.

Cassie Nelson

Had a great experience today. The female owner was very helpful playing music for me and she was so cute! Got some great music and this will definitely be a place we come back to.

Ken Race

Great customer service and very knowledgeable staff. Great selection of vinyl and top quality turntables. Best record store around.

Andrew Hall

I was in the store yesterday and am still very impressed. I was searching for a particular Steve Vai album, "Passion and Warfare." I told Melissa, and she was immediately on the hunt. We got to talking and she was telling me she had a line out the door for a particular bands new release. I thought this place only sold used records. When I got to looking, I was surprised by the available selection of new records like, Bon Iver, Daft Punk, Elton John, Black Sabbath, Kanye West. (The used selection is vast.) After searching we couldn't find the vinyl I was after. However, after an email, they should have it in a few days! It's not often you find a gem like Sweet Melissa Records, so I had to write them a review and share my experience. Warm atmosphere. Kind employees. Awesome experience and selection. Check them out.

Lisa

Coolest shop, with great vinyl. I even found my Chill Hop vinyl. I will visit the store again.

The German Harry

Great gift and collectors selection. Very friendly and helpful staff. We will be back again and shop there

Jason LaMarca

I was referred here and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Jim was informative, honest, and patient despite the busy time of year (Christmas). The shop has wonderful antiques as well. Do yourself a favor and frequent this place. Can’t say enough good things- really.

Elena Thornton

This is the widest variety of records and record players I've seen in the Marietta area. The record store is located in the back room of the antique store and has just about every artist you can think of. Very cool atmosphere.

Nathan O'Reilly

Friendly staff Great shop...a fun place to spend some cash with great atmosphere...not sure if they purchase media for resale and some vinyl can be a tad pricey but everyone wins as the quality of product is always tip top...NOT JUST A RECORD STORE

Sean Snyder

Very cool spot in Marietta Square. Antiques, records (old and new), stereo equipment, etc. It's laid out and organized very well. The staff is also very friendly and helpful. A must check out if you are going to Marietta Square!

ashleygamer6363 great

I love this place. So much awesomeness packed in there. Once you walk in the doors you could be in there for hours and not realize how much time has past. They also have so many records to flip through. I love it there.

Chad Smith

Very cool place with unique antiques and a fantastic vinyl record selection. Friendly and helpful folks top it off. Highly recommended.

matt geisler

These people are passionate about what they do. Bought a first pressing Bob Dylan record here and got some insight into the higher levels of audiophelia. Very quaint shop and very knowledgeable people.

Ian C

The staff is super helpful. Anytime I go in, they hold a conversation with me, ask if i'm looking for anything in specific, etc. Sweetest people ever. Great selection with reasonable prices as well.

Jonathan “J.K.” Williams

Love this place. Haven't pulled the trigger on buying a record in while (I will soon), but this place is dope especially if you love vinyl.

Spoke with the owner about what my best course of action would be for repairs on some equipment I have and he was very helpful with his advice. Great music selection and friendly staff.
