Incredible collection of books, vinyl records, and other vintage items. The owners are friendly and helpful. Great Saturday morning excursion. Free off hours parking on the street.

Great shop. Many old books, wide selection, friendly staff, fair prices. Makes for a nice stop in the afternoon. My daughter and I can spend hours there.

Went to visit this bookstore/record shop yesterday and was amazed/surprised to find some cool things while inside, (such things from vintage knickknacks to vinyl records and books, mostly with the books. Lol!). I could have spent hours in this place reading the books and/or browsing the vintage things, that were inside, (because, I am such a nerd for things, that are vintage)! Moreover, the reason I had came to visit this bookstore/record shop was to donate/give these cassette tapes, that my mother no longer wanted to keep. I would definitely recommend having to come visit this shop if you happen to be a person in search of products and/or music, that's classical.

It is a lovely store for finding hidden treasures. The focus is books, but there is also music in various formats. It is a good way to spend an afternoon with my partner. We always find one or two things that made the trip worth while. The staff has always been kind. For me the store adds value to the community, so I love it.

This used bookstore is beautiful!!! Floor to ceiling shelves crammed with used books. The music is soothing. The prices are great. It’s not that big but boy do they make good use of the space! They even sell vinyl records how cool is that?!

The bruised apple is a a true gem. It has more used books then any place I have seen. It is what I always imagined a true book store being like. There were step stools everywhere so short people (like myself) could explore those high up shelves. I picked up two books, my husband completed a series he was collecting and even my daughter found something. If you are a serious serious collector they had some cool first additions. The record side was cool too. I didn't really explore it as much as I would have wanted but. I doubt they would have wanted what I wanted. But yeah what an awesome place and great staff too! I'll go out of my way to come back here!

Scott, the owner and operator of Rotten Apple for ~27 years, is a legend and treasure. He was incredibly kind and helpful when my friend and I went in last night on a whim. Not only did he try to help me find a handful of obscure books I’d been wanting, he was just a really charming, friendly and interesting guy as well, and I felt completely welcomed in even though it was dead slow, and he was closing in an hour. The store’s selection is exceptional and surprisingly well organized given the breadth of their wares. From an experiencial level, walking over each creaky floorboard is a sensory experience of a time gone by, you can practically feel the store’s history as you browse through. Prices were completely affordable bordering on downright cheap. I bought 4 books and a T-Shirt for $37.94. What??? Oh and he threw in the stickers I was planning to purchase for free! Overall, Bruised Apple Books & Music is one of the best, if not the best second hand book store I’ve ever been to. If you’re in the area, or nearby, you’d be doing yourself a disservice by not checking out this wonderful little gem.

Great place! Local shop that's got a nice selection of used books, CD, and vinyl records. Squeaky wooden floors really tie this space together nicely. The wall art is a really nice touch that, after one visit, I haven't explored half of what's up.
