Rough Trade NYC

A decent sized record shop with a selection of vinyls that have been carefully curated. You can tell that a lot of thought was put behind selecting which records to include in Rough Trade's inventory. In addition, the shop's aesthetic is ! The floor itself is fun to check out as you walk around the store, just don't bump into anyone . Oh and there's also a fun photo booth that you can use for only $5. Pro-tip: My favorite section is the "Essentials" area. Carefully selected records that may or may not be familiar to some BUT worth checking out.

One very good music store, with good collections of vinyls, books, cassettes, and other merchandises. The staffs have good knowledge about their products too. Five stars!

Nice shop, mainly new records, a few used but not well organised and small collection. Cool atmosphere and central location but not the best place for used records

Cool record shop in Rockefeller Plaza with an entrance off 6th Ave. Pleasant atmosphere with normal prices and a well-curated but large selection of merch, records, shirts, record players and accessories, posters, cassettes, CD’s, and more. It isn’t as expansive as their old Brooklyn store but that’s not the worst thing, it was a more manageable shopping experience without lacking for plenty of choices for all types of music lovers. The store was popular but not crowded and I’m glad to see they’re still holding it down with this new iteration of the classic record store.

Attended a live performance and Q&A. Vinyl's were pre-signed. They had us sit on the floor which was uncomfortable but allowed others to see.

Awful - terrible customer service as it is almost impossible to email a real human. I got sent a record I pre-ordered in March, arrived in December and is officially the most warped record I have ever seen in my life. Order #1883597 DO NOT BUY

I did an online order and forgot to put my apartment number on it and USPS returned it to sender, so I called them and explained it’d be coming back their way and asked if I could pay additional shipping to just get it sent back to me instead of refunded. I updated my address with them and they put a note on the order, they shipped it right back out to me as soon as they got it and didn’t even ask me to pay extra postage. Great customer service

I loved the Brooklyn store- huge space, free ping pong, large concert space, beverages, reading area. This shop in Manhattan has none of this. The rent must be through the roof , being at 30 Rockefeller Plaza. It's a cute store, though with a helpful staff.

Rough Trade NYC has an awesome collection of music in every form that a music lover is looking to find in one location. Plus the staff is cool too and usually there are live shows which I'm sure will return once covid is under control.

poser-ish but the tiny used record section is cool. it's mainly a spot for new releases and indie/ new age type music but they do have remastered classics from the beatles or the stone roses!
