Roundhouse Store

On Broadway’s upper stretch, a small storefront trades in Roundhouse Store, the city’s only dedicated magic shop between Columbus Circle and Times Square. Performers drop by for deck sleights, sponge balls, and coin vanish kits; novices pick up first-deck tricks. Beginners hunt for beginner-friendly guides and practice locks while magicians trade dustier volumes beneath the counter. The shelves hum with gaffed dice, thumb tips, and classic roundhouse canisters—exactly the kind of stock an apprentice studies long after midnight.

Find it at 1841 Broadway Rm 902 New York, NY 10023, in the same building as the shuttered rehearsal studios. Call (855) 769-8122 for an after-hours ring; someone always answers between shows. The doors sit quiet until the matinee crowd thins, then the real trick begins. When you lose your bearings, cue up the map: directions lead you straight to the buzz of cards shuffling on the ninth floor.
