More than a record store, place you can get lost in. Huge selection, from classics to deep cuts, with a real sense of curation behind it. You can tell it’s built for people who actually care about music. The space itself is great too. Open, lively, with that constant hum of discovery. You come in for one record, and somehow leave with more... Some shops sell music. This one lets you find it.

A HUGE vinyl store with a pub in it..yes please! Vibes. Great selection of vinyl. And a cool place to just hang & chill! The flagship location for this cool record store chain.

They have some great events here like album launch band performances and signings in the relaxed environment of a record shop. There's a nice little bar too. All within the old Truman Brewery complex. They also sell records!

I like Rough Trade East. I usually visit them for album signing or casual browsing as I find their prices a bit higher than other independent record shops. But the staff is really helpful. They are very crowded over the weekends so prefer to visit weekdays.

came here for an album launch gig. Great sound system and good management of the venue and the people. Enjoyed the Lovebite wine on tap. The gigs are quite weirdly short there (30 mins or so)- but I think it’s just part of how they do things
