Harry Potter NYC Store
Hello, all!
You all know how much I love Harry Potter, so I've been itching to go into NYC to visit the massive store ever since it opened in the summer. I finally went in last week and it was so fun! It's definitely a tourist trap with tons of overpriced merch that you can pretty much find online/in other stores, but the little touches of decor makes it all worth it.
There are so many little nods to the films and books littered throughout the two full floors that it took multiple passes for me to take all of it in. I loved how there were rooms dedicated to certain parts of the wizarding world. From Honeydukes to books, and of course, wands. There's also a VR experience where you can fly around, and a little cafe-like space where you can eat some treats and relax with a Butterbeer. If you're in NYC and are a Harry Potter fan, I definitely recommend checking it out.
Here are some more pictures I took!
So fun!

I really love the store! And I'm so glad I don't have to go to Universal to get real chocolate frogs anymore. The VR is also a ton of fun if you haven't tried it yet (I *may* have gone 5 times already lol).
ReplyDeleteI had asked about the VR experience just out of curiosity, but they said it was booked for weeks, so maybe next time haha
DeleteI think to your point, it's better to go in take and pictures than to actually buy anything.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely! I actually only ended up buying a few little things.
