2nd Avenue Records is a staple PDX record shop located nearby the Downtown/Chinatown area. Street…read moreparking is the way to go and there is tons of it around the area. Inside, they have a pretty nice setup with lots of records to dig through. Prices are very fair and they have a solid selection across different genres. The staff here are very chill and welcoming. You could definitely stop by for some crate digging and then walk around all the other shops in the area as well.

Great place. Tons of vinyl, though most of what I saw was new reissues (as opposed to your local…read moreused record store). Had some Interesting Beatles collections that were begging me to drop large sums of money, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Staff if helpful in a funky record store sort of way. (It's not Disney World, for God's sake! ) I'll likely duck in each time I'm in Portland, just for posterity and all.

What a super cute concept!

There is quite the wide selection of records, and they also buy records. We brought some of ours to sell, and after inspecting the condition, we were given decently good money back on them. If I have more time in the future, I would definitely go take a deeper look at their offerings. This was a fun little adventure that's worth the trip!

Their rock/r&b section was pretty big but majority of the records were sorted by artist which made it easy to browse. I ended up spending a decent amount of time in the store because I kept finding albums that I rarely find anywhere else. Prices are generally in line with what you'd find online, but if you catch one of their sales, you can score some great deals. The cashier was also incredibly friendly. Love my new tote bag!

Prices seem fair and you can find some cool vinyl but you are gonna spend some time digging through crates on the ground, there is one listening station available and works and sounds good enough to sample what you find.

5 stars isn't enough…read more This is my favorite record store in the country (sorry Banana's Warehouse in Clearwater - your variety just isn't there) The owners and staff are super friendly and encyclopedic with their knowledge- I just go here and grab anything that looks cool or I've never heard of, pop it on at the listening station (crucial) and always leave with things I've never heard but am now a better music fan having purchased This store has been responsible for so much musical growth for myself and has even translated into my own art. I owe these fine folks a lot, certainly more than my monetary contributions over the years could ever even come close to - this is a Portland institution and I hope it stays open forever. Also - if you're lame or listen to super popular newer bands/acts, there's throngs of other places in Portland that will gladly take your money and sell you what you're after. If this is the case and you accidentally step into Little Axe, things totally happen but maybe don't feel compelled to leave a nasty review because of this. They're doing what they do at an extremely high level, even if it doesn't appeal to your (potentially) limited tastes.
