Where to find Beaker's Records
What's in the crates
“A small shop named after the owner's four-legged friend, had a surprising number of hard‑to‑find metal records.”
What collectors say again and again
“They’ve got a ton of sweet deals in the plentiful bargain bins and Gordon, the owner, was super nice and helpful.”
“A small-ish shop with a LOT of music; LPs, 45s, cassettes, and CDs!”
“There are plenty of hard-to-find/rare vinyl and posters, and even the $1 and $5 LP boxes are worth a look!”
What customers say
Record stores have always sort of left me disappointed. Boring selections and expensive prices have me leaving every record store having found nothing interesting and spending $10 more than I should have to "support a local business.
What a gem. I was on the fence about taking a detour here as the reviews were showing a Slayer cover, and some people’s ’wide selection of genres’ can mean metal and rock, so was very pleasantly surprised and a couple hundred dollars lighter for making the detour! 🥴🤩.
Excellent little spot for used vinyl, CD and cassette tapes. The owner has a good eye and so there are lots of interesting rarities, some $1 and $3 bargains and a free bin out front. Well worth the visit!
Stumbled upon this gem of a record shop yesterday. They’ve got a ton of sweet deals in the plentiful bargain bins and Gordon, the owner, was super nice and helpful. Go check it out for yourself :)
