Maximum Underground

Staré Město


Hidden away on the 1st floor of an arcade just off Jílská, this place is stocked with CDs and LPs of indie, punk, hip-hop, techno and other genres. It also has a selection of new and secondhand street and club wear for those seeking that Central European grunge look.
