Editor's Review
Imagine stepping into a treasure trove of sound and style! The Vintage Underground in Lewes, DE, has carved out a niche as a beloved destination for vinyl enthusiasts and vintage clothing aficionados alike. Family owned since 1992, this shop is a delightful blend of new and classic finds. Customers rave about the organized layout and curated selection, particularly in the new vinyl section. As Evan Wohltmann mentioned, it's 'the place to do so on the Eastern Shore' for new releases. The welcoming staff adds to the charm, making each visit feel like a special occasion.
However, it's not all perfect. While many shoppers appreciate the unique offerings, some reviews highlight a need for improvement in the used vinyl section. One customer observed that the 'prices were a bit high' on second-hand records, which could deter some bargain hunters. Yet, the atmosphere remains inviting, with a variety of gifts and cards from small businesses, making it a one-stop shop for unique finds. Stephanie Perriello couldn’t contain her enthusiasm, exclaiming, 'I love, love, LOVE this store!' It’s clear this place resonates with locals and visitors alike.
