Plenty of vinyl for the purists, niche items as well, even a pretty janky collection of B movies to choose from. Having said all that, I no longer consume in this manner, so it is almost a bit like a monument or museum if you will. A cool one at that. Definitely worth a pop in if you are in the hood.

Orbit Records piqued my interest when they opened recently in my neighborhood, and I selected the…read moreideal day for my first visit -- Record Store Day on April 22nd. This is a cozy operation with piles and stacks of rando vinyl at a discount as well as an extremely organized selection of LPs. Not seeing what you want? Just ask, 'cause there's a sizeable collection in the back, too. They also sell CD's, posters, books, mags, et cetera. The people who run the place from what I overheard really seem like they know their stuff. I'm no connoisseur of records or an LP geek, so you may not want to go by me, but still. The folks who work there are friendly - I like being welcomed into the fold without having to be an uber-collector or anything. In brief, Orbit is a great record and miscellaneous media joint that's off the beaten path but totally worth the trip.

Be aware - DO NOT BUY ANY GIFTS THERE as they will not backup their merchandise. They do not know what good customer service is! Maybe their vinyl is their passion and everything else they just price way over market and laugh when you walk out spending that kind of money. Being from Highland Park, I just trust anyone in our +small community and want to protect and support our merchants. They have definitely spoiled it for the retail in HP as far as being trustworthy.

606 Records ended up being a great surprise during my stay in Chicago since it was right down the…read morestreet from my Airbnb. I originally stopped in because it was recommended by Pinwheel Records, and I'm really glad I did. The shop has an incredible selection and the staff was extremely knowledgeable. Drew especially was fantastic to talk with. I asked about local Chicago music and he immediately had great recommendations and insight into the scene. One of the coolest things about the shop is that 606 has its own label, and I was able to pick up a limited release of Balance: A Compilation Without Boundaries -- featuring artists with parallels to the city of Chicago, experimenting sonically & balanced with music.  You can tell this place genuinely cares about music discovery and supporting artists. Definitely worth a stop if you're digging around Chicago for records beyond the usual mainstream finds. I was traveling and like Pinwheel, 606 was also able to ship my purchases home for me. Shops like this proved to me the Chicago music scene is extremely vibrant!

It's beautifully decorated inside and everything is thoughtfully arranged. There's a wonderful selection of items ranging from clothing and accessories to housewares and decor to artwork and more. My friends and I were greeted immediately upon arrival and the experience was wonderful. The items are all amazing and in great shape, and the prices are extremely reasonable. I found a gorgeous wool blazer but unfortunately it wasn't my size. My friend purchased an adorable piece of artwork at an amazing price. This shop is really a treasure. I can't wait to return.

I'm an older woman and I can honestly say, recent interactions with two young women there have been so pleasant. Both hard working, pleasant and helpful. This is not always the case in vintage shops. I've bought a few cute items, a small table, some jewelry and always take a friend there when she visits.
