Paul's Boutique

Kraków's best record store for vinyl enthusiasts, at Paul's the records are well-protected, clearly labelled and priced and easy to browse. After years of being cramped into a 20m2 space, this cult crate-digging destination has gone full surround-sound by moving into a much roomier space as part of bc24 in Kazimierz, thanks to which you'll find a selection of street apparel, skateboards, comics, sneakers and graffiti art supplies in the back (a large space on the facade also functions as a regularly repainted street art gallery). With not a compact disc in sight, find several listening stations and a decent selection of used classics, but the emphasis at Paul's is on new records from the 90s to today, especially hip-hop, indie and electronic music. No longer content as simply a record shop, Paul's Boutique is increasingly becoming a centre of DJ and hip-hop culture in Poland, with DJs spinning the decks during store hours on weekends, and even small ticketed concerts in the evenings - check their FB page for details.
