Has a great time looking through all the records at this place. The owner (I think thats who he was) was so friendly and helpful. There is even a record player and couch there so you can listen to some of the records before you buy them. There is also a selection of posters for sale and some other cool finds. You should stop by and check this place out!

Found this awesome shop walking around the battery. Upon walking in they were hosting a live concert and it was such great vibes. I looked around the store found some amazing vintage comics for great prices (very rare to find) I was very stoked! Then I also found some really cool prints of Mac Miller & KID Cudi. Everything is very reasonable priced! I also met the owner and we chatted for a bit, hes so done to earth and such a nice person! Hes a rad guy that owns a dope shop! Check it out and support your local business, very rare to find such wholesome people and stores!

Hidden vinyl gem in the heart of The Battery. Easy to find titles and artists when you just don’t have the time for a treasure hunt. Best 45s collection in Atlanta I’ve seen. It’s a great alternative to my local spots in LP5. Used audio gear updates as well. Friendly, knowledgeable owner.Use green parking lot for back of store entrance. Much easier than street parking at peak times.

From the time I called this business until the end of my transaction it was a pleasant experience. I would like to thank Troy add Ted for their excellent customer service. They were very welcoming, helpful, and hospitable. I went to their location because my son had some vinyl albums to sell and wanted to liquidate them. The process was smooth and they took time to go through each album. I would highly recommend this business if you are buying and selling or trading your vinyl albums, 45’s and other music items.Thanks so much Troy and Ted.

From Indiana and visiting family in GA. Love visiting record shops and this was one of the best experiences. Great prices and loved the way it was organized. They had a $1 bin where treasures could be found. Definitely recommend visiting. Right by the ballpark in a very safe area.

Large range of different genres represented in both new and used vinyl. My preference is used vinyl and they have great titles on used vinyl in good shape at about $6-8 each. Take a look inside next time your at The Battery. Next to Rocky Patels.

Great vinyl record store in the Battery Atlanta. Great price on used vinyl, even sealed vinyl is reasonably priced. Be prepared to spend some time here and search through their collection. I have found some gems, most of the time under $10. Everything I have purchased here so far has played, which is a plus especially when you are buying used albums. Dont overlook the $1 bin, I have found some rare gems here. Employees are fine with you just searching, and they are very friendly.

Review №32

One of the best record stores in the Atlanta area. I’ve yet to be to a vinyl store around that has better pricing on new and used records than Waterloo. The owners are very friendly and will sit and talk about music, Star Wars, and even college basketball with you. Would highly recommend stopping in to look around whenever you’re in the area, as they get new records every week and you never know what you’ll find.

I hadn’t gone to The Battery all year until last week and I’ve been back to the store 3 times since then! I love this place- my mom and I went in today looking to buy one of the vintage toys for my brother and the owner took the time to explain which ones he recommended and why. I googled how much they go for online and his prices and definitely unbeatable. I’ll definitely be back every time I get the chance.

Had a blast from the past!!! They have a great selection of LPs, comic books, atari video game cartidges, retro pins, DVDs, VHS and even a selection of the large movie laser discs 😲. Great customers service. Made us feel comfortable, cause some of these places can make you feel like you dont belong there. The manager was very informative and helpful. I feel the prices were fair. I would visit them again.

Great store with an amazing selection and equally amazing staff who are super helpful and engaging! Very well rounded assortment of records from an extensive retro collection with all the necessary newly released vinyls as well as others you didn’t know you needed. They have a great $1 bin in addition to some others great deals, awesome place to stop by for some holiday presents. By far the best record selection and store in atlanta metro!!

I love this place! They have literally everything for music lovers. They have every artist you can think of from young to old. My friend and I purchased Frank Sinatra and Travis Scott to give you an idea lol. The customer service and ambiance was great. They also have other items like things for gaming, posters, and action figures. Give this place a try; you won’t regret it!

Troy Glen stopped by my beloved fathers home today to buy back his collection classic R&B and Jazz albums. Besides being very knowledgeable and friendly, his offer was reasonable. I would definitely do business with him again in the near future, and Im looking forward to visiting the store soon.

This is a great spot for records, old and new. The guy working there was really nice and offered to help me immediately. I found some really good records at really good prices. I picked up Lionel Richie, EPMD, Betty Wright, Marvin Gaye, and a few others and spent less than $30. Parking was not an issue (4 hours for free) and the store is located right off of the parking garage. I plan on returning soon.

Had the best experience today at their store. I brought my 3 year old daughter with me, and she was a little disappointed the collectable toys on display were not something she could have. The owner overheard our conversation and came by and asked her if she was looking for a toy and she enthusiastically said Yes!. He walked her to the front of the store and proceeded to hand her a bobblehead doll off the shelf and told her it was hers to keep. It made both our days. Ill be back to support such a great business, and I hope anyone reading this will stop by to do the same. This is exactly the type of business we should go out of our way to support. Thank you so much, youre a great example of whats right in this world!

I brought my record and DVD collection to them today. I was very impressed with their service and friendliness. I ended up spending a couple hours with people that I didnt even know, yet it was like we were best friends that hadnt seen each other in years. We talked about past concerts weve seen, groups we like, albums, etc. It was really amazing. Sometimes its not always about the money, but knowing that if I can share a little bit of my music history with the next generation that makes me happy. I highly recommend this company to do your business with and I wish them all the success!!

Ive been going to this record store for the better part of 4 years and theyve always been among if not my favorite record store in Atlanta. You can always expect to find a good variety at almost dirt cheap prices. I found at least 5 records that would cost upwards of 20$ in the dollar crates. I can always count on leaving with a nice stack of records for under 25$. They also have a nice Technics Turntable setup w/a decent preamp for you to test out your records before you leave. The main thing I love about Waterloo is that you can come in and get straight into the music without the fluff and overblown prices. The environment is nice although I preferred the old Smyrna location to this one. The new location is in the SunTrust Park area and as a result, you get wandering baseball fans coming in and messing with the vibe. But thats a minor complaint. And another added benefit is that you can now take Public Transportation all the way to the shop basically. So if youre looking for a good down to Earth, fair priced store, Waterloo might be your best bet. 15$ can go far in this store if you know how to dig the crates.

Great store! Thank you for doing me a solid and helping me out yesterday! This record store has an awesome 80’s new wave section as well as classic country. Of course they have an ample selection of new releases. Also, Waterloo has comics and dvds as well. I even saw some retro NES games in there. Definitely a store you should visit whether you are a local or visiting if you find yourself near the new Braves stadium.

Easily in top 3 best record stores in GA. Great selection and extremely fair pricing. Found 2 ethnic folkways for $6 & $7 (you never find them this low), Hendrix boot for $8... I brought a stack of $1 records and a stack of special price albums to the counter to pay, and the owner gave me all of $1 records for free. I’ve been to dozens of record stores throughout the country, and this place knows what they’re doing. If you’re a vinyl junkie in GA or just passing through, I highly recommend Waterloo Sunset.

Great record selection and location. Good vinyls and prices. Customer service is not great at all though. They didnt hand me my card after I paid and instead put it on the counter. They dont greet when you walk in nor bag your items. Didnt feel very welcoming. Overall, they have gems for low prices, but customer service is lackluster.

If you want a niche place to shop, this is it. Think of the 80s rexord store. They have old records, new records, players,, CDs, 45s, posters, a little bit of a lot is in this place. Prices are reasonable. Located in the Battery park and your can dine and shop. A must to visit and you will be surprised to find something you didnt need but really want in this store.

The owner didn’t greet my husband or me and was very rude when we did communicate.He never even acknowledged us, never asked us did we need any help, and when it was time to pay, he just motioned for my husband to come to the other counter and slid his debit card on the table as opposed to placing it in his hands.I hate we spent any money with them, but I was in such a great mood to finally be out of the house due to COVID that I didn’t realize the way we were treated until we had already left. We will not be back and I would not recommend.

Today 3/7 I walked into Waterloo records and the same gentleman that is working is very disrespectful and grouchy every time I come in here. This was my second attempt for Waterloo records and just poor service. I was planning to get a house credit today and dropping off about 30 records.We come into record stores to surround ourselves with similar people that enjoy music. Wrong person to have working your store. I was going to come to record store day here but that won’t happen. I will be taking my business somewhere else and telling others in the hobby to not waste there time at Waterloo records.

Was visiting from out of town. This seemed like a pretty cool shop and I dropped a good bit of coin here; however, they hit on my biggest record pet peeve. I bought a $30+ record that had water spot cover damage hidden behind the very large price sticker. They knew what they were doing when they put the price sticker there and they certainly didnt discount the price for the damage. Now Im back home cleaning covers and figure out that Ive been had. Ugh. For records of this price point I expect the damage to either be noted or not hidden.
