Easy Street Records is the best little record store, cafe and cocktail lounge in West Seattle and it's almost single-handedly doing its best to keep Seattle weird!
East Street is an independent record store that opened in 1988 and they're a super-favorite here at Keep Seattle Weird. They opened a small cafe inside and then later, an upstairs "speakeasy" cocktail lounge. They are so beloved, when West 5 Bar and Restaurant closed up the street, they gave their beloved Mai-Tai recipe to the folks at Easy Street. They have record release parties, in-store performances and it serves as a mini-townhall of sorts for local residents.
