Irvington Vinyl & Books is truly such a gem!! Elysia is a wonderful store owner - always so kind and informative! I love browsing through what all is new & seeing if I can find anything I may have my eye on, and never feel rushed. I don’t think I’ve ever been in and left empty handed! This particular visit I ended up scoring a 1975 reissue of Pink Floyd’s "Dark Side of The Moon"! The shop kitties are so lovely and sweet, too, and I love seeing the altar for Miss Violet when I visit (sweetest girl ever, miss her always!). 10/10 overall!! Highly recommend visiting if you’re in the area, or if you just love vinyl and books, CDs, cassettes, or VHS tapes.

Best vintage store, period, in Indy. LP records, cassettes, paperbacks. All media tested for playback quality. Jewelry & candles & all kind of treasures to boot. Fun, friendly staff. Be sure to venture to the back rooms. Local art in the last room in a dresser. Plan to spend an hour -- at the very least. (Cats are cuties.)

My first visit here revealed a charming oasis of knowledge, music and art that immediately captured my imagination and curiosity. It was a fantastic place to find my quiet mind again browsing through their extensive collection if books and music. Navigating through the various rooms of what I treasure most was a pleasing adventure, anticipating what was around the next corner. I am well into one of the books I bought, in this case to understand something I know little about. Irvington Vinyl and Books is food for my ravenous mind and I am grateful to have found it. The staff here are friendly and engaging, along with the other patrons I visited with. I love it!

All sorts of books and zines and some artwork by local artists for sale. I'm not a vinyl shopper but by what I hear from others their vinyl stock is as robust as their book stock. Never know what you will find. But you will find something neat for sure. Sometimes there are shop cats

Absolutely gem and one of the institutions that makes Irvington such a special community place. Over the years I’ve gotten handcrafted jewelry - gifts for loved ones - gorgeous tarot decks and most recently a super quirky vintage book of quotes/meditations from the 70’s (with a beautifully thoughtful personal inscription - seems the original owner revived it as a gift from a dear friend - which makes it feel all the more magical!)

Recently stopped here to check out there collection. Nice Quaint little place with alot of variety. I think not best area to have to drive to suggest going during day and make sure you have enough gas. Area run down around it and if you drive in wrong direction. Otherwise I would go again. Very friendly staff that works place and have nice size old book collection besides Vinyls.

One of the best bookstores in Indy! It’s a small space filled with all kinds of genres, new and old. The folks there are also always willing to order a book for you if you cannot find what you need. We love them and so happy this staple is here in our neighborhood!
