Always refreshing to visit a record store thats not just a depository for Radio Head represses and 15 copies of Led Zeppelin IV.Really great selection of Dream Pop and Synth-Wave.
This place is great. Super helpful staff, especially Will. Their customer service is fantastic. In the past, theyve helped me put together my first vape, showed me how to get more mileage out of my Pod Mod pods, and are currently being very proactive in helping me with a faulty Pod Mod.
Great record selection and other sweet treats
Cool local store. New and used records. Staff is very chill. Theres also a head shop connected. Prices are good on new records. I bought a Creep platter mat too. Im in Jersey but will definitely go back when in Philly again.
One of my favorite record stores in Philly. One of the best selections in hardcore/metal Ive ever seen. If you have any questions regarding record players, possible new pressings, or really anything else the staff are extremely helpful. Would recommend any audiofile check this place out.
Small record and vapeshop. Friendly, helpful staff. Great venue for band acoustic and meet and greets! There for Waterparks and it was well organized and orderly...they gave numbers when you arrived and had people enter the set and meet and greet in number order.
Ive been to a few vape shops, and creep records is my absolute favorite. They have standard brick and mortar prices, so theyre more than online. BUT the staff are all ridiculously friendly and knowledgeable. And their selection of juices are decent.
Nice place, they frequently have live gigs even when they dont advertise them, and they are very easy going about browsing and watching. As the place is both a head shop and a record shop, I will do reviews for each, and then one combined. The record shop: kinda small, but they pack a lot into the space they have. If you are looking to do serious crate digging, howeverthis isnt the place. Most of their records are full-priced and new, or used and still expensive (no sweat, they gotta make a buck too). The selection also tends to be geared towards Alternative/Metal/Emo/that whole scene music, which figures considering their whole aesthetic. Again, this is totally fine, just not so much what I was looking for. I did find some good ones, and I think you will too. Head shop: GREAT selection with lovely custom pieces. Not the biggest or best stocked head shop, and the prices are pretty steep, however, they have nice quality and a good selection. This isnt really the type of head shop where they haggle, however, so keep in mind you will prolly pay the price listed. Also interesting, but kinda random: the headshop parts windows have to be covered to the outside by PA law, but the rest of the windows dont. Nice selection and friendly staff. Overall: Fun place to visit, definitely worth checking out, perfect if youre into that scene. Prices will be steep, prolly because its in a pricey area, and its location is a bit strange---if you havent been around the area before, you can definitely easily miss it. I reccommend visiting this place, its a good time.
Great place to buy old school hip hop albums. Also has cbd gummies, kind and caring staff.
Update on first post....Creep was great to work with and resolve the issue. So I upped the rating. Good folks.Ill update this post and review score (1 star) if I get an answer back from the store. I ordered 11 albums through the online store on Nov. 27 and received a payment confirmation. They didnt ship for 17 days and then it took another 13 days before I received the shipment today, Dec. 26. Only one LP was in the box even though the packing slip shows all 11 ordered as enclosed. I tried calling the number noted on the packing slip and the webpage and it goes straight to voicemail, noting the mailbox is full, please call back...Ive purchased records from dozens of online stores and never had to wait 30 days to receive an order (and still waiting.....).
Fabulous store with attitude galore! Killer selection of vinyls, and an intimate backroom stage for small venue concerts. Creep Records is part of what makes Philadelphia such a special place to live and learn about equally special musical artists.
Place is a hidden gem, never knew about it until I bought tickets to see the happy fits. Had a really cool vibe, and dope artwork. Also a great selection of vinyls!
The perfect store for Fishtown yuppies. Obscenely high prices, only new records and re-issues. Used selection is terrible and over-priced. The bands theyve showcased are trash, the smoke shoppe portion overpowers the rest of the store to where after 20 or so minutes I had to start covering my face.Its an Urban Outfitters for Fishtown Yuppie Scum, with bad customer service included!
Will and his crew are very helpful and knowledgeable. They even have a large stock of CBD items. They have anything from sleep aids mixed with melatonin, to actual wax you can put in a rig. Oh yeah, and their music selection isnt bad either!
What isnt amazing about this place! Headshop, local glass and a record store all in one, then top that off with awesome staff! Keeps me going back weekly :D
Awesome atmosphere. Helpful staff. Great selection across the board. Loved it. Highly recommend.
Records? Got those? Vape juices? Check. Live events? That, too. Its a nook of the piazza worth visiting. A little bit of everything, for everyone. From the classics to the new wave, its all there. If it isnt? Theyll help you find it.And dont forget about Record Day. Exclusive items for the day that can make even the grumpiest of bears smile. Go in, walk around, and take it in. All of it. Enjoy yourself.
The staff were rude and passive agressive. The shop could be a very cool place but the attitude of the staff was as if they did not want me in the shop. It made me not want to be there. As far as selection, Creep’s record selection is not particularly robust and prices are a little high. There are better record stores if that’s what you are looking for.
They have a great selection of so many different types of music. The staff was wonderfully helpful and they also sell electric guitar supplies. Over all it was a great experience and I got what I came for.
Awesome store. I had never shopped here before, but they still stayed open 15 minutes late for me on Labor Day just because I asked on the phone. I got there and had a super professional and quick experience. Would highly recommend people check this place out.
Placed a fully paid on-line order on May 7th. Its now June 18th, and Im still waiting for the shipment. Talked to several people at the store who assured me it was on its way. Hey, I want to support my local record stores and artists. But dudes, youre running a business, so take it seriously!
Bought a product from them and had a manufacture defect. Without hesitation the employees replaced my device. Prior to this event I have been a customer to Creep Records for a year. Always has been pleasant
Pre-ordered a limited edition record months ago and received an email today (after they have had my money for months) saying they did not get their shipment as promised and would either send me a refund or the non-limited edition of the same item. WTH.. Are you kidding.. I now have to pay on an auction site 3+ times the amount of money for this item I was promised, and I have been without the money I spent for it for months now. I could have had better luck playing the stock market with my money, and at least gained some interest on it.. Poor business ethic.. Sorry I took a chance..
Amazing vinyl store just didnt have what I needed
Love this little shop. They display/sell great glass artists. They sometimes hold small events. Mini concerts are fun. Thanks !
Pretty cool shop, huge selection of new records, not as much used. Great prices and super friendly staff. Worth the trip!
I walked into the store, shopping, was totally ignored as the sales clerk talked on her phone, As I went into the back portion of the store, I just happened to mention the M word ( we all know what that is) I was very abruptly, and with rude attitude told, I had to vacate the premises immediately, and that it was a state law. OMG no apologies, no explanations, nothing. I mean seriously, the merchandise the store sells is not cheap. They are retail. Im the customer, I definitely, deserved better service then I got there. I guess you have to use sign language when you shop there. If you can handle the rude clerks.
Im not sure when the last dude first came into Creep but the record selection has increased about 10x from when we expanded back in April 2014 and I feel like we have one of the largest and strongest new record selections in philly. As for the smoke shop, were the largest high quality American glass smoke shop in philly so were always gonna stay big on that side too. Were always trying to make both sides as great as possible and we have more exciting things coming!
Was literally tracked down and contacted via facebook the day after my nearly $500 purchase telling me that there was miscommunication requesting that I pay them an additional $120 to ensure the artists get paid. Creep is a fitting name. I guess this is a poorly run business where managers would rather violate their own all sales are final policy than admit they made a mistake.
Oversold pre-sales for a limited edition album, then gave us silly options. Now Im out a limited edition album and waiting for a refund. Bought the regular version of the album on amazon - spend your money somewhere else.
Bought some glassware that the owner convinced me was high quality. The stem broke after less than a week. Bought a scale that was broken straight out of the box as well.
Good place if your into records as for there headshop its little pricey they have a good a selection tho
This record store had a surprisingly intense selection of rare punk, hardcore and metal!! It was very dangerous to my budget as I could not resist purchasing such awesome records as Under the Sign of Hell, and Destroyer, both from the band Gorgoroth; The Captains Birthday Party, a rarity from The Damned (not even currently available on Discogs); Ashes by Christian Death; and... the new CZARFACE-/-MF DOOM collaboration. I could have done even more damage, but I have a mortgage to think about... and tomorrow is another day.Really great record shop... right in the middle of the Piazza in Northern Liberties/Fishtown area!!Oh... Its also a very respectable head shop with very nice glass wear and vaporizers for the discerning connoisseur.
Cool spot, i saw Phantom Phunk from Tampa play there and everyone working seemed really cool. Sound was great. Cash only for the shows and theres an ATM on the other side of the courtyard
Love the staff, they’re always there if you need a hand with something. In addition the collection they have is massive they definitely have what you need. Love the friendliness I get from the shop, hope you guys see this. See ya soon!!!
A really great shop with awesome rigs and accessories. Great staff and a cool record shop attached. Worth checking out !!
Awesome record/smoke shop. Some things are a little on the pricey side but they have a pretty wide selection. Sometimes they have shows here as well which is pretty cool
I saw A Summer High on tour at Creep Records. The show was sold out & there was still room to take photos with the bands. Had a really great time there.
The record selection shrinks every time I go here, now mostly it is smoke shop. Record pricing is ok. Some records are kept in bad condition. Rewards program is a very cool touch though.
I have been trying to recover my piece from creep for years, they apparently gave it too amar who took it appart and asked someone to commision him to reassemble it. I doubt the pieces even exist anymore. Rip to my jop and amar chicken bub and my $840 cash. Creep took my number down and told me they would call me back dozens of times. They gave me amars personal number at one point. I have tried contacting amar through instagram as well but he wont respond to me.
Amazing place, most items at reasonable prices and good supply. Also very great customer service and highly recommend.
GREAT place. Music selection is AMAZING, atmosphere is killer, great selection of glass, and they have live shows here as well. Support local and buy from Creep!
Such a good record store and venue for shows. But if youre driving, get there at least an hour early. There is no such thing as parking at creep.
They sell items your not allowed to ask or talk about I asked about a specific product and she asked me to leave.... dont show something if it breaks your terms Ill never shop there again over something so petty and I would definitely not encourage friends to go there.
My new fav record store in Philly. Helpful staff, great selection. Awesome place.
Cool edgy shop for those who are into the old school record store vibe and culture. Nice Vape selection and knowledgeable hot chicks as well
Always good bands here, whoever books the shows knows what their doing and I like getting a good glass piece and cbd edibles.
Brilliant selection of records
Half the store is records, 15% CBd products 15% jull kiosk 20% overpriced glass, half of which is illadelph.
Great spot for RSD and just shopping for new vinyl in general. Friendly staff.... considering its a record store.
I asked over Facebook if they had a particular RSD release and they said one was available. After I drove 45 minutes in for it , was told the record was set aside for the owner.
Took my daughter to the Waterparks meet and greet. Staff was very friendly and the store has a lot to offer.

Amazing place to shop for records, and music items. Friendly owner/employees.
One of the best record stores in the city!!🤘😎😎👽
Employees are very knowledgeable and confident when presenting products to the customer. Great and friendly atmosphere
Not as big of a selection as I was hoping for, and there was almost no categorization so you couldnt tell where to look for certain things or if they had certain artists. Kind of frustrating.
Cool record store and head shop. Theyve got a great selection of pieces and records.
Dope record store that I love going to when I visit Philly. Huge selection from old to new!
Old school vinyl was nice to take my son there.
Great record selection and an intimate setting for concerts. Cool place!

Nice. Really Nice... Second best smoke shop in the coty
Very upset with being told a particular product would be met with the same price at another location near where I live. NOT ON THE SAME DAY WHEN I WAS IN ANOTHER STATE.
Awesome record shop with amazing live music gigs
Fantastic selection. Super friendly staff.
A great store with very eclectic stock
Overpricing record on record store day is a pretty lousy thing to do; nice glass.
Best place for heady glass/accessories in north Philly!
Friendly employees always willing to help. Wheelchair accessible
Awesome record store and smoke shop.
Their selection is quite large, but its a little pricey
Excellent store and staff very friendly and welcoming
Staff made me feel uncomfortable. And she was extremely rude.
Very helpful and educated in records and glass....very sweet!
Very cool record / smoke shop, partnered with Frolic
Fun live music venue adjacent to the record store.
Limited selection of records, but that doesnt mean they arent bangers!
This is the most poorly organized record store Ive ever been to.
Excellent customer service, they went above and beyond. Thank you Will.
Musty smell. Had a lot of variety, but not what my son was looking for.
They NEVER open on time. 15 minutes past whenever they say they open.

2021-02-06Great record shop with outstanding staff, I always enjoy shopping here. Would definitely like for them to update their website because it’s outdated and what’s shows available on the site is not available in store, a pre-order and pick up function would be a great additional to the website as well. Overall definitely recommend checking them out.

2020-12-29I went in to buy a grinder and an employee personally recommended the “EZ grinder” for $45. I took it home to grind up some bud and it got metallic shavings and sparkles all over my weed, ruining it. I asked for a refund and they told me they could do absolutely nothing for me. Not even an apology.After researching the grinder online I found that it was only $20 from normal retailers. So it seems this headshop marks everything up nearly double. And pressures it’s customers into buying their more expensive products.It’s upsetting that their employee basically convinced to buy an overpriced grinder that poisoned my weed with cheap metallic particles.This is not a practical headshop for purchasing paraphernalia. It’s more like a tourist attraction for oblivious customers to buy overpriced pieces they could find for half the price online.
