When you first walk into the shop you get the feeling of entering a thrift shop, here you can get a…read morecoffee. Which was delicious and done with great care. If you walk past the counter you enter the vinyl part of the store. At first you think it's neatly organized and well taken care of. The price stickers on the records will tell you that some records are way overpriced and some are good bargains. (You have to watch out for bootlegs in the store, so buyer's beware.) The quality is great overall. You have a splendid couple of hours digging until you go to the counter to pay for your selected records. Then the horror begins. He looks at the records and the prices. He takes them over to his computer and starts searching and comparing prices on Discogs and Ebay. For instance I had a couple of records with a price sticker of €18, which is a lot for a common second hand record in decent shape. Discogs prices were between 15 - 30. I checked this to know whether €18 was a good price for a VG+ record you know. He comes back to me and says I needed to pay 35 for that record and over €150 for the 4 records in total that I wanted to buy. Which he priced himself between 12 - 25 each before. I wanted to bargain with the guy, but no bargain available. I said that it was illegal to change your prices from your store in real time. He got furious took the records off the counter and told me to not come back unless I got rich. I was in complete shock. I had hard earned cash that I wanted to buy records with, yet he won't see me again. You can do this for yourself, but later that day I typed in "Coffee & Vinyl Discogs" on google to find his Discogs store. Oh man his prices are almost always the most expensive. He lost the plot, He's got an appetite for money full of greed and craving for cash. It's a shame. I really hope he turns around some day and looks at his vinyl to see music instead of dollar signs. Go for a coffee and you get caffeine Go for records and you will have a bad day.

The coffee is very good. I wanted to try the cakes, but arrived an hour before they close, so everything was sold out. Must be good. I'll be back to try it again some other time.

Very weird shopkeeper. I visited this place a few years ago and immediately after entering, the…read moreshopkeeper asked me if I was looking for something specific. I said I just wanted to look around for a bit. So I browsed through his small, but decent collection of 70's and 80's records. After a few minutes, he repeated the question and said that it was lunch time and I needed to hurry up, saying he'd stay open for a bit longer because 'surely I was going to find something I'd like'. This really made me feel uncomfortable and I left the shop. Today I thought I'd give this shop another try and bizarelly enough, the exact same scenario repeated itself: the same pushy questions and after a few minutes, just when I considering buying a Pretenders-album, he told me he had to go and eat (it was 4:30 PM!); saying he'd keep the shop open a few more minutes for me as I was "surely going to find something I'd wish to buy". Jesus Christ. Last time I'll drop by here, despite the fact that he's got a small, but charming collection of second hand records for sale, mostly in good condition. But I just wanted to leave this shop asap after a second awkward experience. BTW, on Google Review you can find similar experiences from other customers.
