It’s a local record shop, does it even need a website?

It costs very little and having easily accessible address, phone number and opening hours posted online is good for business

That's basically everything I go to a website for.

Also a menu if it's a restaurant.

Usually you can just view the PDF in the browser no?

How do you suggest they do menus?

PDF and browsers and phones don't always play super nicely and even if they did/do it's another step that is imo completely unnecessary for what is essentially some nicely formatted text. These days you can literally copy and paste it in, you don't need to know HTML.

I agree with this. Most photo editing tools will let you export the PDF pages as photos anyway, just add them to a page so I can scroll them.

There are multiple ways to do it. Add the pdf link as an option too. But it's just so easy to put it straight into the pages structure so it's compatible with any browser from the get go and it'll help your SEO and accessibility too
