Mintone Records Store 明堂士多
Located in the hip and artsy Yulin sub-district of Chengdu, Mintone Records Store is a coffee shop and vinyl store during the day, and a cocktail/whisky bar slash occasional LiveHouse after 7pm. Originally serving as the recording studio for Mintone Records, an alternative hip-hop label based in Chengdu, the studio was later converted into a coffee shop/bar/record store that is popular with the alternative music crowd in the city. With quite a few of the labels’s rappers, including Lu1 and Kafe Hu, picking up major awards and recognition in China, it is a great place to grab a coffee and feel the pulse of the vibrant alternative music scene in Chengdu. If you stay into the evening, you can even grab a drink and perhaps enjoy some live performances. We recommend their coconut dirty and their Yuanyang Special, a Hong Kong inspired mix of rooibos milk tea and black coffee. Cocktails and whisky are served after 7PM.
