What a gem of a place! I stumbled upon this record store while visiting a friend nearby and I’m so glad I did. The vibe is incredibly laid-back, and I immediately felt at home. The layout is cozy, with records organized by genre, which made searching for hidden treasures so much easier. I also appreciated the knowledgeable staff; they were eager to help and offered me great recommendations based on my taste. I ended up leaving with three vinyls, including a rare find that I didn’t expect to see! The only thing I wish is that they were open more days of the week, because I can’t wait to come back and browse again. If you love music, this is a must-visit spot!

I absolutely love this record store! The selection is fantastic, especially for indie and classic rock albums. The staff are super friendly and really know their stuff. I found an original pressing of one of my favorite albums here. The only downside is that their hours can be a bit limited, so make sure to check before you go!

This place is a vinyl lover’s paradise! The collection is impressive and well-curated, making it easy to discover new artists and revisit old favorites. I spent quite a bit of time flipping through the records, and the staff was more than happy to chat about music and offer suggestions. I particularly loved their selection of jazz and soul records. The only minor issue was that it got a bit crowded, which made it hard to navigate at times. However, the atmosphere was friendly, and there was a sense of community that made it worth it. I’ll definitely be back to explore more!
