I had a very positive experience visiting this store today. It was a very clean, well stocked experience. I was looking for Spec 4 pins for quite a while and I just so happened to visit this store and there they. Thank you so much 💓

Upon arrival, clerk's out of control dog bit my toe, African American male clerk didn't even apologize for his out of control dog of discipline it, clerk misdirected me multiple times to products he didn't even have. Seriously who doesn't have a basic pair or black bdus? This stuff is just stolen ta-50 nothing more.

I have been to this store 2 days in a row during business hours and they are not open. There is nothing on the website, the phone number is not working NOTHING. They have to do better.

Very poor customer service I wouldn’t recommend this business to anyone. You place orders with them that you never receive. Then you all to check in order and all they do is lie. Then when ask for a refund you get the run around about that also. The customer service skills are poor and the way they conduct business is terrible. They only get 1 star from me I didn’t want to give them that. Learn how to be honest and treat customers right before trying to run a business. That’s why you can’t support your own.

The stores open time was inconsistent and the floor was littered with dog poop.

Was hesitant to go after reviewing the reviews but glad I decided to go. They had exactly what I was looking for and the owner and her daughter were both so kind and helpful. Very personable and took her time to make sure I was certain with my purchase and presented me with multiple options since it was a gift for my husband. Would definitely recommend

Ask to show my ID for a $9.00 credit card purchase. Haven't been ask for ID in twenty years.I would think if someone was attempting to commit fraud they would make a larger purchase. As a neat clean professional appearance black male.I got to wonder was I racially profile by black people. Shopping online from different retailers from this point on.Do Better !

Nice selection but the majority of the items have no prices on them , which is very aggravating.There was a little dog running around peeing on the floor with a leash attached while a young girl sat at the register on her phone .Every item they have you can get from ebay cheaper

The owners are great! They have an amazing selection! Even if they don't have it they will get it for you. My company MercSouth uses them for our outfitting needs. Bulletproof vest, armor, sleeping bags, packs, everything to outfit your security company, gun club , or just if you want to get all of your pins for your uniform. They are the best place in Birmingham hands down as far as trying to get what you need! From when they were by the bridge, to their current location, this family owned and operated business has treated me like family. Give them a try you won't be disappointed. Tell them Mercutio sent you.

As a military mom, I’m thankful for the gentleman who runs Mrs Nadia’s. It is a great resource for any patriotism needs. I am a member of the local Blue Star Mother chapter. In getting ready for an event, he gave a discount to help support our military. And the dogs are so cute and well behaved.

My husband and I are new to Alabama and made a special trip to this store. Upon arriving, there was a sign saying "out to lunch". It was close to 1pm so we took a drive around and came back shortly after. Still not open. While sitting in the parking lot (watching probably 6 other cars pull in and back out), we called the store and asked if they were open and told them we made this special trip. They lady didn't seem interested in making any sale and told us to try again around 2pm. Apparently they take 2 hours for lunch and don't care to do any business. We practically begged her to open the door and she said "i just can't open the door".

I always find something interesting at this store! Army laundry bags, great for travel. They're adding new items all the time. Stop by and just browse around. You never know what you might find.

I enjoyed and have a good experience while visting Mrs. Nadia's Army Navy establishment. I purchased several items and the owner and staff were very personable and we shared history regarding our veterans.I will always shop there and I thank them for their support. May God Bless them.Raynita

Customer service went above and beyond to help us out with our Uhaul pickup when we ran into a problem with another pickup location. Clean store, ample parking, and the friendliest staff. While I didn’t come to shop for any military items I noticed that they have a very large selection. Highly recommended for anything Uhaul related or military products you might be needing.

Having visited this surplus shop one year ago, upon first impression was not impressed. A huge overhead for a business with limited selection, extremely overpriced for 90 percent of products. Negative atmosphere for energy the aura is suffocating, extremely toxic, rude, and unprofessional owners as I have experienced personally here. Operated by a black husband, and wife, ONE YEAR LATER the EXACT same products sitting in the same spots NEVER moved collecting dust. I have best friends who are shop owners for other surplus shops that are like family been doing business with other places 10+ years. As a shop/business owner myself this places degrades you as a human being, they degrade their customers for "Not spending enough money" with them, can you blame them? with the amount of broken pieces from hydration packs, holsters, uniforms etc. Never returning again.

We loved our visit to Mrs. Nadia's! They have a great selection of military clothing and other gear. We came in for ammo cans and were able to find exactly what we needed from their stock. They also have some vintage military items and sell lawn equipment. Mr. Butch was very helpful and friendly. We'll definitely be back!

I also had to jump through loops just to get a refund. Customer service is horrible. I will never recommend anyone going there. If you do, don't order anything and make sure you get the right merchandise.#BLACKOWNEDHORRIBLE

Very helpful staff. Wide variety of military, police, an outdoor gear at a fairly reasonable price. A little cluttered but that's what makes it fun. Great customer service and friendly people. Parking is a little bit difficult and limited.

Mrs. Nadia and her team provide excellent service and offer a wide variety of products. They are very helpful in procuring items that may not be in stock. It is a family-run business that gives back to the community.

I will never use this location for U-Haul again. I had no choice but to use a truck with no air conditioning and the check engine light on. Then was told to take it to another place to get them a different truck and when I complained with them they said call the 1-800 number such trash service I would not recommend

Store hours on Saturday are fro. 10am to 5pm. I waited to 10:45 and store hasn't open yet. Lights are off in the building. No sign on the door stating that they would be closed for the day. This is bad business.

Terrible very poor costumer svc. I spent 2 days trying to get a pair of fatigues in the correct size and was not able to and not refunded my money at all. The person that is running the store has no true clue of whats going on with the merchandise and sizes. She is jus there .

Employees are beyond rude. Over priced and honestly no reason to walk through the door. You are going to be faced with a uncomfortable shopping experienced.

Why would anyone care about the "leak". Why do strange people only see that. It is a great one of a kind store to find the unique thing you didn't expect and some good stuff as well.
