Not much time to browse, since the owner, also the one who assists you.. gets to the point and asks what you looking for and gives you the specifics on what you went in for. Not a stroll and see whats in stock kinda place. Its more for, get in, get out kinda flow. However, it works for me.I'm in, i shop, I'm out.

The prices are a little high, but everything is in great condition... and it's a brick and mortar shop... I don't mind paying a little extra for the experience of digging and finding something "in the wild" that I've been searching for. The owner was amazing. Such a nice guy... you can tell he's liked in community around him as well. People walking by waved to him and he had a couple friends stop by who were also super friendly. We talked music and travel. I highly recommend the shop. Go in. Buy some records. Talk. Hang out. Good stuff.

In no other record-shop in Paris i did ever feel as comfortable as here and spent so much time. Great choice of styles, special offers, new and used stuff and always a cool suggestion from the owners. Not to forget the fun listening to a variety of music together. Really a great experience and a nice neighbourhood too in the back of Sacre-Couer ! Check it out - i hope things haven t changed that much.

Un lieu de rencontre plus qu'un lieu de consommation unique ! On peut se procurer chez Walrus, des disques neufs en CD et vinyle (Pop, rock, folk indépendant en majorité mais pas que...), des livres, des sacs, des tee-shirts, des posters et sérigraphies de concerts, des platines... Chez Walrus on peut boire du bon café, du Club Mate, du Fritz Kola, de l'apfelschorle, des limo' artisanales super bonnes et aussi des jus. A la pression de la Grolsch et de la Brooklyn (oui mais de la IPA !).

Great record store in Paris, France!…read more My wife and I were seeking out a few good record stores in Paris and ended up here. It's a good size store with a lot of stock and selection. My French is beginner level at best, so I didn't mingle with the staff very much, but I am sure they would have been helpful if I had needed assistance, as pretty much everywhere we went the French people were very friendly and kind. The store is a bit unusual in that it has two store fronts. Pretty cool and unique. The store has a really cool vibe and I would urge you to stop in and pay them a visit should you ever be in The City Of Lights! Then after you shop here, go get some Macarons!

It's not a big store but it's well-organized and inviting. Betino himself is also inviting, welcoming us into the store, asking what we were interested in and having a long conversation with my husband about music (it was so long that I got really bored and went down the street for a coffee). Once Betino got a feel for what we wanted, he spent the better part of an hour pulling albums and making recommendations for my husband. He let him take his time, listen to everything, etc. He even stayed open late for us so we could finish up. We wound up buying several albums. He gave us some swag (a Betino's shopping bag, some stickers, etc) and was everything you'd want in a local record shop owner. Great guy and great little store.
