    Noriega.

    "What we missing (soul power) What we missing (soul power) What we want (soul power) What we need (soul power)" -James Brown Noriega Records stands tall in the city of Corona. Where would the city's good folks be without the exceptionally well curated inventory at Noriega? I believe they would be without soulpower. The collection of 45s at Noriega is well worth the trip. Mike, the owner, happens to be a sage of the genre of soul music, and soul 45s. He possesses an impressive collection of soul music. Anyone in the store when Mike happens to be spinning one of his rare 45s is in for unadulterated sonic pleasure. Mike traveled all over the US and the UK buying up soul before it got hot internationally. My guess is big Mike has one of the better soul music collections in the state, if not the nation. I have seen buyers begging Mike to let a few records go from his personal cache of soul records. Sometimes Mike will sell, if the price allows him to maintain or add to his outstanding vinyl horde. Years of buying and selling shaped Mike into a tactful salesperson too. I have enjoyed buying records from him when I've had time to stop by. His son, Andrew sometimes runs the store too; Andrew sold me a Billy Stewart record from his personal collection at a fair price. I highly suggest asking Mike or Andrew for a vinyl recommendation. These knowledgeable men will place good records in the correct hands. Check out Noriega Records. Mike and Andrew are there to drop soul hits and move that music.

    Hidden gem. Place was small but had a lot of great stuff.L. Owner Mike made sure I was good or needed any help and just let me search through boxes. And then boom. Found a record I've been searching a long time for. Owners got some good info and knowledge. No discrimination on any type of music. Will be back for sure.

    Hours on the door say they open at 11, they were not open. Don't bother going unless you call ahead I guess.

They get new records here as well as having a large selection of older/used records. There's also a clearance section that's fun to go through. The owner here is very helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. I also love that there are a few listening stations if you want to spin some of the used records here. Oh, and they also participate in Record Store Day and ask for requests if you want any of the releases published on the site. Also, note that they aren't kidding with the name. It literally is a single large record room. And I got a little confused when I first came here - I got to the spot Waze brought me to based on the address and the building looks like a large government building / library in the artsy area of Riverside. So I thought I misunderstood when I found this place on Google maps and thought it was an actual building that contained official records. That is until I saw the sign on the corner pointing towards the shop. I followed the sign until I saw another sign leading me down some stairs into the entrance of this record room/ shop. I was immediately wowed right when I walked in. Just a really cool store. Plenty of street parking nearby.

    Great selection. Well organized. Decent pricing. Friendly staff. Records are very clean.read more

Got to the front of the line and asked very politely and calmly "do you have any Pokémon cards?" I was on a time crunch and trying to get a birthday present for my nephew before meeting them for dinner. The cashiers response was "I have to let the line die down before I can even check." I was very confused by this statement because as a customer myself, I waited in a line to even ask the question. There were other cards behind her, and I was confused as to why she couldn't turn around or look down. But I said okay no problem. I stepped off to the side and watched her help three people. People were still filing in and I had no problem. Then a woman who looked like a manager walked behind the cash register to break change, she asked the cashier what I was doing. They then started to whisper but I could hear the word "Pokémon" very clearly. The manager out loud goes oh no. Don't open the box. We don't open boxes until the weekend or Monday nights and then they both just stared at me. Feeling extremely uncomfortable and choosing to take the higher road (also on a time crunch) I left. Thanks for nothing :-) I too was a customer who waited in a line and will not support this business. I can't feel bad for brick and mortar book stores that end up closing due to choosing to lose business.

    Mission Galleria Riverside, CA…read more Date went 11/8/25 (Saturday) Time went 12:13pm (it was packed, and busier than I've seen it since my last two times I've came here) Atmosphere: I've been to 5 thrift/antiques stores in the Riverside/CA area in the past 2 days, and this one is by far the biggest and has the most to look at. There is literally something for everyone to buy in this 4 floor jammed packed store. Prices $ Mm this one is a bit tricky, while there are a lot of special pieces in this store I feel like there are some pieces that are overpriced (like fast fashion clothing items) juxtaposed to beloved and nostalgic beanie babies being priced for no more than $12.00 (which I expected the prices to be higher). So, honestly it's quite a hit and miss and dependent on your tastes. I'm not sure if this location haggles either as I have not purchased something from here yet. This is the only thing holding me back from eating it 5 stars. Worth it? I'd recommend this location to everyone honestly, even if it's just to kill time. My boyfriend and I spent around 3 hours in here easy, and I believed we may have met the owners (not sure) as well on the bottom floor organizing a display case. I can't remember the man's name, but I believe the woman's name was Jodi and they shared that they've been married for 30 years.
