Charming, quaint store. Cool, friendly owner.
Me and my wife were coming off a St. Roch food tour when the used records on the outside steps of this store caught my eye. The owner was chilling outside as well and gave me a friendly 'bonjour!' before she headed in to wait on customers inside. After I went through the records I entered the store to be welcomed by an ecclectic mix of vintage pop culture goodies. From 50s jukeboxes to 60s kids toys to 70s playboys - eye candy for the quirky and art-minded.
And, of course, there were more records inside which were a good mix of rock, pop, jazz, and soundtracks. Prices were pretty reasonable compared to the inflated prices I've seen since the vinyl boom. The owner was very accommodating, offering to play anything we wanted to hear. We shared a brief conversation about our love of vinyl and then completed the purchase of 2 lps - "When Harry Met Sally" soundtrack and New Kids on the Block "Hangin' Tough" (don't judge!).
Definitely would come back and recommend to others visiting Quebec City/St. Roch area. read more
