Long Play Café in Pittsburgh - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

LPC is the coolest! Brian is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to vinyl, and I always recommend that my local audiophile friends stop in!

great staff + collection + coffee + Rosie 🐶 10/10

I love the listening parties! Very fun and cool experience!

The owner was incredibly friendly and helpful, and made us feel right at home. There were lots of interesting records with a broad selection. Although we didn't get anything to drink, the café had a nice little menu. To top it all off, there's an adorable dog at the café who adds a special charm to the place. Highly recommended for a visit!

Had a wonderful experience purchasing a record online from Long Play Café. Brian reached out to me personally to ensure the package was sent to the correct address and provided prompt service and a tracking number. I'll be sure to pop into the shop in person if I'm ever in the area!

I stopped in today to browse the selection and not only was the new stuff selection super impressive but there were plenty of old records in great shape too! The owner is super nice and it's fun browsing records while occasionally petting the dog named Roos (who is a sweetheart). Definitely fills the need of a record store in lawrenceville.

Great vinyl selection, very nicely organized. They also have excellent coffee, you have to try it!

I recently visited long play for the first time. I really appreciated the owner’s knowledge and passion for music of all genres. He is also a great supporter of live music. Thanks for being the real deal! I’ll be back for sure!

Really cool place, nice owner and tons of records to remind you of your earlier years. They sell coffee and beverages as well. And they best thing are the home made pickles available for purchase.

Stopped here yesterday. Great shop. Owner was very friendly and helpful. A ton of great new selections and older used stuff as well. While we were there, we could see the cleaning and restoration the used vinyl goes through. Used items have a grade sticker which is helpful. I got Framptom Comes Alive, Eagles Long Run and Heart Dog and Butterfly for 29 bucks. The Heart Album sounded brand new on first play. Haven't listened to the others yet. My wife was able to get coffee here to and sit on a couch while I browsed which was a bonus. Usually, she doesn't have that option if she comes with me. Will definitely be back when I am around the area.

Great record store right on Butler Street! Brian is very kind and helpful.

This has to be my new favorite record store in Pittsburgh. No pretense, just good music, great coffee and friendly conversation! There is a bit of something for everyone here. The Macchiato latte is incredible too!

New favorite record shop! You can immediately sense the passion the owners have for their business and community.

Such good coffee. I don’t know how they do it, I’m obsessed. Also, records for a dollar, I’m coming back.

Coffee and Hot Teas were of excellent quality for reasonable prices! Vinyl selections are varied, but if you want something specific, Brian is more than happy to assist in ordering it for you (provided there's prints of it available to buy). The store also doubles as a fantastic intimate venue to hear live music on certain weekends.

Robert and I love to drive over to Delaware from New Jersey just to go to Long Play Cafe. Brian has a awesome place to hang out, digging through albums and to grab something to eat. We always have a great time when we stop in!!!

Just stopped in for the first time and this is an amazing Cafe! Vinyl to listen to and available for purchase, great food, and excellent coffee! I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff. Will definitely be going back! If you like good music, vibes, food and coffee then this is the place to be!

Nice old and new vinyl assortment and gourmet coffee to boot! Friendly owner and staff

Great independent record shop and café. Cleanest public restroom you will ever use. The owner, Brian takes great pride in his store and it shows. Very clean and well organized shop with a wide selection of new and used records. Free parking!

We had a great time digging through your vinyl records yesterday. And thank you for your help finding what we we're looking for. My wife and I will stop back again. We love the shop .

A rocking place owned by a rocking guy. Brian is dedicated to making everything about the experience in the store be a memorable one; on top of that he's got a fun and energetic persona. Great record prices here too.

Amazing selection of used cds and vinyl. Clearly a labor of love for the owner.

Man, what a fun place to spend some time in, You got the music (of course), the vinyl that you need to fill that hole in your collection. You got snacks if you're feeling a rumble in your stomach. But let's face it, the true treasure here is the owner, Brian. He's got more stories about the musicians you love than anyone I've ever met. Go in, listen to some tunes, and spend some time with Brian. You will not be disappointed.

Great selection and friendly customer service. The guy here really knows his stuff!

Long Play Cafe has a great selection of clean used records, as well as a variety of new stuff, and all of it is priced fairly. I’ve found some great stuff in here of all genres! It’s fun place to stop in if you know what you’re looking for, or if you have a bit more time to dig around you’ll probably find some pleasant surprises. Brian is super helpful and friendly, and the space is very welcoming.

Great record shop with a knowledgeable & very helpful owner. We found what we were after and will definitely visit again.

Loved it! Great vinyls! Awesome place to hang!

Really nice and clean Vinyl shop. Good selection of both new and used. Free parking and you can even grab a coffee and chill in the seating areas. The used vinyls are cleaned thoroughly and priced fairly. The owner Brian is very friendly and likes to make sure your happy with any of your selections.

Awesome record shop with amazing coffee. Not to mention a very friendly owner who obviously cares about music and caring for records. Go!

Disappointed that he held RSD titles and someone who came before opening but later than others who waited in line got limited titles EDIT: Since Google doesn't allow responses. To be more specific, Bryan was 1st, I was 2nd, the guy standing on the median behind us was 3rd and then the "on hold" guy got out of his car and walked up just as you were opening and walked in ahead of us. You could have known who was in what order, you just didn't ask. And then you handed the "on hold" guy a pile of RSD titles that included your only copy of Skid Row, which I had seen in your flip through video, and which I was looking for. Bottom line, in my opinion, holding merchandise out for customers who ask ahead of time on RSD isn't cool.

Great food, atmosphere, and vinyl selection. The owner is very friendly, as well. Definitely worth stopping by.

This place is awesome - I wish this existed when I went to UD years ago! A haven for vinyl aficionados and music lovers! I purchased a few records here, one I have been looking for years to find! I also needed a replacement turntable, so I purchased one here. It ended up having a factory malfunction and needed to be returned. Brian handled the return process with great care and professionalism. Really so many things to like about LPC - tons of new pressings and a large selection of eclectic rare finds. Fresh food made on site. I look forward to being a regular here once the covid crisis calms down.

From my first visit I know this will be my go-to when I just want to relax, listen to some good music, and talk to like minded people. Extremely welcoming environment, and of course a great vinyl collection.

Long Play Cafe is such a wonderful little café. The coffee is great, food is delicious, the staff is welcoming and there's always good conversation. They also make an effort to accommodate if you're vegetarian (and don't want them to cook with the same pans as meat dishes). Definitely will be coming here regularly! I love it!

Super friendly owner and staff. Clean, organized and great coffee and food.

Such a Pleasant surprise in service prices , nice music excellent coffee , good food , best way to get all those in one place and super fast service , you will not be disappointed, good job in recreating an original European style cafe atmosphere, if you are in the area and you need coffee ,a place to meet ,sit down , give it a try it’s very good , best cafe in the area , and Staff is super friendly . LP selection and music are awesome .

I don't know anything about records, but as a student at UD, this is a great place to chill and study, with cheap good food options. The whole place very clean, they even have an electronic heated toilet!

The best new vintage vinyl store in Delaware. I've collected many albums and they have an amazing system to clean and renew their stock. I had been wanting a copy of The Cars since Ric Ocasek passed and picked up a beautifully restored one for just $7. Needless to say I'll be back for Sublime and the Romantics & more. Oh they have food , coffee and ticketed performances! 🎹🎤🎸🥁🎼🎶🎙🎷🎺🎻🎤
