Antique Archaeology

If you are a real fan of this show then it’s a must see. You can buy a lot of cool antiques all from the episodes of the show. There are some of Mike Wolfe’s personal things in there not for sale, but they are awesome to see. If you are not a fan of the show then go in anyway. The employees at the Iowa location are top notch. They will walk around and tell you the history on anything and where it was picked. If you make an offer, Mike is called, within a couple of minutes you get a counter offer from Mike. His employees make it seem just like the show. It’s a great time even if you don’t buy anything. Emme, Chensa, and Sarah Thank you so much. Prices are very reasonable and if you watch the show, you know Mike Wolfe doesn’t rip anyone off.

Great place to visit if you're a fan of American Pickers, it's very clean and neat because they still film new episodes there. I like their t-shirts & stickers, staff was very polite and evenly told me about Franks recovery progress.I will be back soon,LaClaire is a beautiful little town on the Mississippi River.

Nice that it was open on Sunday for a friend from Minnesota out visiting. He loved the motorcycles.

Wow, very neat store with some excellent displays and things to b buy. Fun to look around. Cool stuff. If you like the tv show American Pickers, this is them. Another location in Nashville. This store in Iowa is just minutes off the freeway.

The store is literally 5-10 minutes off the interstate and very easily accessible. This is a TELEVISION SHOW location! There are souvenirs for the show and some items they’ve picked that are for sale. If you are looking to pick through lots of rusty gold go do what Mike & Frank do… this is more of an homage to the show which I enjoyed immensely with my 7 year old daughter.

The newer building is mostly souvenirs. The older building is more like a museum with most "cool" things being not for sale. Still fun to see just once.

It was neat to see many of the items that they have picked on the shows! The larger facility was not open to the public when I went due to shooting part of the show but the smaller shop was so quaint. The staff were super helpful and friendly!

This was fun! Love all the motorcycles and sci fi items they have for sale, reasonably priced. Le Claire is a beautiful town!

I like how Google calls it a souvenir store. That's exactly what it is, I knew that going there, I was not expecting to see Mike or Danny. I did not by the way. It is small nestled above a gas station and across from the Mississippi. BUT if you like the show they do have some cool stuff to look at yes all the "picked" are over priced but cool to look. Its mostly a nicy decorated gift shop, I got a shirt and a pin. Took some nice pictures outside and then went to the Buffalo Bill Muesum. Mike Wolfe also has his Two Roads brand items for sale in the store, it is all high quality made in the USA, I was able to get a nice T-Shirt 100% Combed cotton and a nice Beanie both were on sale which was even better. But I also got an antique Archology shirt as well, even tho the two roads is a better quality shirt.

This place looks bigger on TV, parking with a trailer is hard. Still, it's a cool place to visit! Staff was nice. Merch was typically overpriced, but eh... It's not a big deal.

Great place to stop if you're in the area. Sure there's nobody from the show there, but still worth the trip. Lots of "Merch" to promote their brand, but also stuff from the show too.We'd recommend it to anyone if you're traveling to or through the local area, plus there are other places to see in town.

Maybe my expectations were too high. I expected more. The store was really kind of a dud. Most of what they had for sale were their own items, T-shirts, etc. There weren’t very many antiques to even look at let alone buy. The couple of cool things that were there were marked not for sale. All in all very disappointed with our stop there. Liked their store in Nashville much better.

This place is very neat to visit. Let me get this off my chest first... This store is part of a TV show! Of course, there is going to be show merch! You came because of the show to begin with, or you would have driven right past. There are many items here that have been picked during the show. You probably pay much more for some other merch you purchase. There is a mix of merch and actual antiques. Personally, I love the place, and the staff was top-notch! Take time to look in the original building as well. This is a place of history. There is so much to see here. If you think it is overpriced, I suggest you pick your own antiques! That is fun too!

Such a neat place to visit. As soon as we walked in we began to point out items we saw them pick on the show. The staff was very helpful and friendly.

Great to see in person. Disappointed there was only really swag for sale. Many interesting items but were not for sale. Staff was very nice.Only about 1 mile off the interstate so worth the quick detour.

Located in the small town of LeClaire Iowa along the Mississippi River.This store is the home to the TV series American Pickers. You will see many items featured in the show that are either for sale or just in display.Most items were not for sake but it was fun to look at and browse. They sell many souvenir items such as tshirts,keychains,etc.

I’ve made a trip there and donated a piece, and it was a nice experience.What I really want to brag about is seeing Frank Fritz back on the new shows. He’s looking good and it just seems to make the show right again. I’m really glad to see himback!!!!!!!

We have all seen the Pickers purchase these items on TV. Most of the items in the store are trinket items and T-shirts. Still it's history and I love history. The shop's are so small. I remember the store in Nashville being larger than the two in Le Claire.

Has a good selection of items. Was a pleasant drive to get there. Just right off the Mississippi River. Looks bigger on TV though. Lol. But friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Pent of souvenirs to buy.

Interesting, eclectic collection of antiques. Fun to walk around and see if I could recognize any of the items from the show "American Pickers". There were a few items from Mike's personal collection on display. Most items are for sale.

It's a cool stop if you're a Pickers fan. Expect it to be set up more like a mini museum and gift shop. We'd already been to the Nashville location and knew what to expect. There's something extra special about coming to the original location in LeClaire. Some employees were just stocking merchandise, but a few were very knowledgeable and could answer questions about some unique items.

Gata say was one of the best experiences. Visiting the same place the show is also filmed. Was really cool to meet the girls!!!. I told the girls I felt like such a tourist. Ha ha .. And they helped with all my questions and we're so helpful!! Definitely will come back with the family next time!

It’s cool when you pull up and recognize the store and the old car out front. It’s pretty cool in both stores recognizing the picks from various episodes. This store is more recognizable than the Nashville store and it’s a good way to spend an hour or so. Lots of souvenirs to purchase. I was kind of hoping Mike would be there. But again we missed him. Nobody was at the Nashville store either about a year ago. Still if you’re a fan of American Pickers this is a cool stop if you’re in the area. Also, LeClaire is beautiful too!!!

Very cool stop on a road trip. Prices were unfortunately astronomical for most of the "picked" items. Great staff, cery friendly.

Really cool to see the buildings, car, and rusty gold from the show. The 2 buildings are setup very well. Congratulations to Mike and Danielle for a job well done. I highly recommend a visit if you are a fan of the show.
