Howlin' Jacks

Howlin’ Jacks Record Store in Cleethorpes is the kind of place where time quietly disappears between the shelves. The dog waits patiently by your side while you say “just one flick through”… and then immediately start digging deeper.

Inside, it’s a proper independent record shop packed with both new and used vinyl, plus CDs, tapes, and a few nostalgic extras like retro films and games. It leans heavily into that treasure-hunt energy. You’re not just browsing, you’re searching. And there’s always the feeling that the next record you pull out might be the one.

There’s personality baked into it too, with live music, promos, and a real love for the culture behind the records. It’s not polished or overly curated. It’s better than that. It feels lived-in, a little bit chaotic in the best way, and exactly what you want from a proper record shop.

A great little stop in Cleethorpes when the walk turns into a wander and you fancy something a bit different.
