The Meserole Street Record Hunt
Human Head Records pairs new pressings from local labels with used vinyl. Its listening stations let you sample records before buying. Try an unfamiliar release alongside something you already know. The selection spans house, disco, soul, R&B, and jazz. Vintage receivers and turntables fill display shelves beyond the bins. The Brooklyn shop opens at 12:00 PM every day. Browsing ends at 8:00 PM, giving this stop a clear evening cutoff.

Retro found objects share the shelves with sustainable goods by local makers at Again Vintage. Its in-house cafe serves matcha and custom herbal infusions. Pair a drink with a lentil bowl or plant-based pastry. The shop opens at 8:00 AM on weekdays and 10:00 AM on weekends. Doors close at 6:00 PM daily. People also sit to work in the space. Pantry items add another option to take home.
