I love coming here to explore their collections! Every time I come, I always go home with at least one magazine with me. The owners are very friendly and helpful, if you have questions about finding specific issues, they are very professional and knowledgeable! Can’t wait to check out some new launch this month!!

CASA magazines is AN INSTITUTION in the world of print magazines and definitely worth a visit. The selection is extensive and updated. They have both popular titles, as well as more obscure/"indie" and international titles (Japanese, Korean, French). Employees are helpful and fun. Whoever runs their social media is doing a fantastic job keeping this medium alive. Print is so much more fun than digital. Grab a coffee and come peruse!!

Very good magazine selection with lots of thicccc options and even a very cute coffee/book store included. Definitely worth a gander!! It's small so you shouldn't browse for super long but it's great for a little peruse or if you're looking for a specific (recent) issue!!!! So good

tried unsuccessfully to get the latest New Yorker while on holiday in NY. This place has plenty of stock and keeps recent issues too so you can get any you’ve missed. Massive selection of mags across the shop, not sure where else New York ppl go for this as newstands don’t sell many.

Amazing selection for such a small space they have just about every magazine you could ask for and the service is excellent! Make sure you ask for fantastic man!

A neighborhood classic! Filled with every genre of magazine you could possibly want. (And yes, spicy ones too.) The space is small so I’d recommend going at odd hours, but it’s nice to see print media having support!

One thing people underestimate New York on (among many) is the tight knit nature of their neighborhoods. Casa boasts miles of stacks of exotic and imported magazines, as well as fan favorites. Tons of travel mags, science mags, LGBTQ mags. Science fiction, architecture, design/vintage/antiques. Magazines from other countries and other continents. Other languages. Tons of gorgeous photos and brilliant colors. Magazines that aren't just for the recycling bin . . . magazines that you keep around for the beauty, or for your coffee table, or to keep in your guest room to wow your guests. Things I had never heard of before, yet couldn't wait to read. Would also be a great place to find Is Casa expensive? By the everyday standard, yes. Do they carry exotic and imported magazines that you might not find elsewhere? Yes. Do they have that neighborhood vibe, where you feel like the owners are going to invest in you and get to know you? Where, if you have a special request, they will try to accommodate? Yes. Another thing people don't realize about New York is how capitalism and investment firms are ruining small businesses, attempting to wipe all of the character and grittiness from Manhattan. Casa Magazines is a well-known village magazine Mecca, most recently sold by its owner of 30 years, thankfully to what appears to be local people. I am glad they are helping keep that local flavor. I automatically felt at home upon entering Casa Magazines. The owners made sure to help me throughout my shopping spree. In fact, I got so carried away and spent so much money that they asked that I take a free pack of gum of my choice upon checkout haha. They also interacted with other patrons as if they were old friends. They knew what magazines each person was looking for and could tell them if any new volumes had arrived. I had been meaning to get to Casa for a long while, partially because I was interested and partially because in New York, you shouldn't procrastinate doing or seeing something that matters to you . . . you never know when it will suddenly be gone. I am glad I made it out here. I will gladly spend my money to keep this business alive and hopefully thriving and will definitely be back.

The prices are unreasonable and there's this one guy behind the counter with a gatekeeper attitude. He acts like you're in the Bape store and doesn't want your phone to be out. Large selection though last resort if you want a print!

My beautiful Princess Dr Barber who is visiting her MaMere from ATL for a month. Who grew up in the Big Apple and love returning. She's heading to her 2nd home this Sunday . A month goes by quickly. She's been looking to buy a few magazines and even Barnes & Nobles on the UWS magazine section was a bust‼ However, what was totally shocking to me; is that in the WTC (World Trade Center) You will NOT find a news stand or store⁉ The following Magazines she's been looking for (at least for 30 days)...if you see any of the following, I will drive to you to get. Sha'Carri Richardson on Vogue, BIG Mama on Billboard & ICE Spice on RollingStone magazine. Thks It's what parents do, for their precious gems ; on any given day. Then there was CASA Magazines in the Village. #OMG #GOATCloser #ForSure. Ayan & Uifi (Mgr) was AMAZING . I'm looking forward to returning sooner than later. Thank you both for extending exceptional customer service and care towards my daughter. who was busting with joy. She's enjoying your gift as well.

Good selection of magazines but overpriced. Even charged me more than the sticker price on the items. You can find most of selections for cheaper elsewhere.

Love Casa to the max. I really enjoy print because it's really the magic of having something physical even though digital is so important now. Print still has that magic and spirit that we need. Have come here to buy magazines multiple times and workers are super helpful.

I went to Casa Magazines for a special event that was hosted here. The whole storefront was decorated for Pat McGrath Labs' Divine Rose giveaway. It was the perfect place for the runway and beauty trailblazer that is Pat McGrath to host a giveaway. The store was filled with magazines which made the perfect back drop for the event. We got to take a picture with Pat McGrath inside the store and was given some items to take home including the sought after Mothership VII: Divine Rose. The owner handed us the palettes himself which was pretty cool. I cannot wait to visit this year and check out the store during a regular business day.

Casa, my love for you has no bounds. You can find everything here, from the most obscure print material to your standard newsstand magazine. Most recent purchases included No Man's Land (The Wing's new mag), Gentlewoman, CR Fashion Book, and August. It is cramped, with all shelves packed tight. It only adds to the charm. As an added bonus, it's only a few blocks away from Barbuto! Take a night for yourself, spend a few hours devouring everything Casa has to offer, and then literally devour some dank ass chicken at Barbuto. You're welcome.

Who still purchases print? me! You find the most obscure material. Who else sells West African French magazines, they do. This place is small and everything is stacked tightly. There's barely any room to walk. If you can't find title, just ask. The guy behind the counter knows where everything is.

Casa magazine I love you! Please never stop carrying urban zines! Come here for sneeze magazine, hypebeast, undo, and many many more! If you don't see what your looking for ask the kind gentlemen's whom work there. They are really happy to help you find it! I love how every book is crammed with every magazine imaginable. From architect, art, landscaping, gossip, urban etc etc etc! It's a neighborhood gem!

It's our weekend-must after coffee and breakfast. It's been almost 5 years ... we love the selections of the magazines, we love the neighbors and non-neighbors, we love the conversations; and we love Ali . This is a rare NYC gem. Stop by and say hi and get your reading for the day/week/month.

One of the best magazine shops in the area. I didn't realize they're hard to find, until my brother became the layout editor for his university magazine. I needed to find obscure magazines paired with the household names. You'll find both ends of the spectrum here! They accept credit cards too.

This is the one thing that I miss about NY the most. Besides Taim in the West Village!! This magazine store is packed and stacked with all obscure, hard to find glossy's from all over the world, literally. Multiple languages, check. The only substitute I have in San Francisco is Smoke Signals....and you can't compare it to Casa! If you can't find it on the floor, it is bound to be buried somewhere. I have never seen anything like this. Easily can drop up to $100 in here. My place for all fashion reading materials.

Love this little shop a lot! I always find something good here even when I come in without a specific publication in mind. The man who works here is super knowledgable and nice. Shoutout to him. I always come here and spend more than I'd like but that's from my own impulse buying. Oops!

Hands down the absolute best magazine shop in town. Any and all magazines you could ever want are sold here. They will also ship them to you if you live out of town. It is so small in there that you can barely move if there are more than 3 people in there and I love it. They have so many phenomenal magazines that you can hardly walk around.. it is heaven for a fashion magazine junky like myself. The guy who works the counter is the nicest person you will ever meet and he remembers me every single time I visit, even if it's been almost a year between visits. I love this place so much!!

Great selection...just about anything you could want. If you don't see it ask. . The staff have memories like elephants. They try to get it if it's not there. These people are incredibly kind. Get some respect with your newspapers and magazines! Right across the street from Aux Merveilleux de Fred. Grab a bun and coffee while you're there!

This is my favorite newsstand in the city. Despite the small shop's sense of clutter, Casa -- also known as Global News -- has an amazing selection. And when new issues come in, the middle of the floor is a pile of boxes as the staff shelves new issues. Just now, I dropped about $50 -- it's been awhile since I've gone on a magazine jag; forgive me -- on titles like Comic Art, Success, Publishers Weekly, Filmfax, and Strategy+Business. And the fellow working there is going to set aside the first issue of Good for me to pick up later today. They got in five issues of the premiere issue and have already sold out. So. Many. Magazines! Update: They still don't have any more copies of Good. That magazine is hot!

Casa Magazines is a magazine paradise! They have every magazine imaginable and a fair selection of news papers. Every morning, Mohammad and Ali have been extremely helpful as they've quickly navigated me through an ocean of magazines to find what it is I need. By the way, even if you don't find what it is you're looking for, they will order it and contact you when it arrives. Oh and probably the most amazing aspect of this business is that they have issues that aren't slated to come out on regular newsstands for at least a few more days or weeks. Nice, right?

They are the king of magazines! I read obscure Italian magazines, and they had each and everyone! When I told him he was the king, he introduced himself and his colleague, shook my hand and told me he could order things for me, too. So: not only do they have mags hanging from the ceilings - they are friendly and don't mind if you ask questions or take too long browsing. I dropped about 50 bucks, and he gave me the cheapest one at a percentage off. Sweet. Print lives.

This store is fantastic!! If you really still enjoy the turning of pages instead of swipes allday!! This is the place for you !!! They have it all and it's up to date!! Not like some stands that still have magazines from 2015 in the window...went in for 1 magazine in particular and came out with 5.... definitely will be back

Best news agent in New York City. Casa Magazines has everything from Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine to Hustler to Sight and Sound to whatever you and your partner want to read. I highly recommend Casa Magazines. Question: Shouldn't it be Casa de Magazines?

Really nice newsstand. They have a lot of magazines, especially international ones. It's a pleasant shop and they leave you alone to browse, which is nice.

This place is fantastic! They have a wide selection of periodicals from all over the world. The gentleman working there today dug up the previous month's issue of The Rake for me, which pleased me immensely as I had missed it last month. My only complaint would be the size of the shop. Not much space to maneuver, and you really need assistance finding your favorite rag, should it be buried somewhere. Overall, it was a great experience.

This place is truly a magazine heaven! Finding a place like this in NYC is not as easy as back then. Less & less newsstand out there. The guys here were friendly. They also sell imported magazines & some hard to find one.

Horrible service and blatant discrimination by the workers. I just left the store a few moments ago and I am scathing. I've never had to physically scream at a store worker in my life before today. I work in the publishing industry and make it a point to shop at these token stores still in the area to give the business, and you would think I was some hoodlum in there flipping tables by the way I was treated. There were several other (older white) patrons in the place, who were able to peruse as they chose unbothered. I, on the other hand, was told by the younger indian guy working the register I was "ruining" everything. I confronted him at the ridiculousness of the comment, it's a store, am I not allowed to flip through the magazines? He goes over and points at ONE magazine I did not place back in the original position it was in, and commented on how he had to come out from behind the counter to fix everytime this happened. One magazine. Mind you, it's not my job, and the store is a wopping 20 feet big. I immediately walked out of the store (after giving him a piece of my mind). While I truely hope this wasn't a racial thing, being a young and a person of color... but, if the older white clientele are able to freely walk around and touch things, open wrapped magazines, and put things back unscathed -- why am I the sole person confronted and pointed out? I wish there had been other people in the store besides us two when this happened, the absurdity was unreal.

PRINT WILL NOT DIE!! Casa has never failed me...they always have the most obscure publication I've been searching for. This is the most thorough, well supplied magazine/'zine store ever. At least in NYC. Not only do they have everything, the owner knows exactly where everything is located within their densely packed 300sf store. A true NYC gem. Please support our local business!

This magazine shop has a ton of magazines. I was looking for something specific, and Ali was kind enough to hold what I was looking for until I could get there to pick it up. He was extremely knowledgeable and made great recommendations. Seriously, go to Casa before you go anywhere else. I had a great experience because their customer service and selection was so great.!

Nice magazine shop! They have all types of magazines in multiple languages--Chinese, Japanese, French, Italian, Spanish, Russian, etc. The shop was much smaller than I imagined, I wish it could be bigger with a little more selection, but it seems in general this kind of shop is quite unique and rare. Magazines are around $16/$20 with some very expensive ones mixed in, so be sure to ask the owner the price if you are not sure. The owner was very friendly and polite and happy to answer questions or help customers find magazines.

Jammed seemingly to the rafters but they probably have what you're looking for - especially if it's design/fashion oriented. There aren't even that many newsstands in the city that have this kind of scope or selection. I found just what I was looking for and then some.

Doesn't really seem like they want to keep print alive like they advertise. I came here this morning intending to take a photo for my Instagram (and I would have bought a magazine too). The man working there told me I couldn't take a photo. I told him I had seen other people posting photos inside the store, and he claimed that people paid the owner to be able to take photos in there. Sure, maybe I believe that some of the big bloggers I saw posting there paid them, but there were plenty of regular people posting photos there as well. I totally understand that you don't want people taking photos of magazine covers instead of purchasing the actual magazine, but I just wanted to use the store as a backdrop. If you want to keep print alive, I would think you would want to encourage people to take photos of the store to share on their social media channels so that other people learn about it and will come check it out. In the future I will be making my magazine purchases elsewhere.

This place is great. For my job I have to track down magazines from up to a year ago, often as many as ten copies. You know the ONLY place in the city that has ever, never mind CONSISTENTLY, had what I've needed? This guy. He's nuts, to be sure, but how he manages to keep so much stock in such a tiny space only demonstrates that there's a method the the madness.

Really, how many newsstands like this are left in NYC? A well-curated selection of just about everything you could ever want. I never feel guilty throwing down too much money here and I always discover a publication I've never heard of before and must have. Support Casa Magazines!

I ADORE this store. It's run by the sweetest, most friendly guys in the world. They know everyone in the neighborhood and it's so fun to pop in and see who's hanging around. It's like a real old-time neighborhood place where everyone knows your name. (My young son loves to visit "his friends" there in the morning on the way to school.) They have every magazine you can think of all crammed into this funky little space. Great newspaper and candy selection too!

Magazine Lovers, this is your Paradise! It has magazines from all over the world, in different languages, you can always call the guy ( I guess his name is either Mohammad or Ali) and ask for the magazine that you are looking for, he is super friendly. The place is really Tiny and almost packed with magazines, but who cares, we LOVE magazines.

It was on Yelp that we found this wonderful magazine store, full of endless titles, charming cozy environment, and of course Mohammed who made us feel comfortable to browse and offer help with our enquiries. A great time was had by all three of us, and many magazines were brought back to Vancouver.

A friend of mine was in a magazine and I was trying to look through the magazines to see if I can find her the guy that runs the register is rude nasty and i'm obnoxious I was in one day earlier this week and I asked him when the next issue comes out he said Saturday so I came back Saturday and I showed him the listing of magazines I was looking for and then he said you can't flip through the magazine and all I was doing was looking to the page where my friend was posted and was going to buy the magazine. He said you can't look through the magazine again I said I'm going to buy it he got angry and I walked out and I said no wonder your store is empty do not go here there are other nicer magazine places in New York City that you can get what you're looking for

Liv O.

Given all the good reviews, I was hoping to have a good experience here. I came here to pick up multiple copies of a newspaper for the company I am interning for. I was told to pay with the company credit card. The man finally accepted the credit card but only after he was extremely rude to me because I would not pay cash. I explained to him that I was told to pay with the card. As an intern, I am not even on payroll at the company and was just doing what I was told. I ultimately ended up going down the street to get more copies where the man was much more understanding.
