While I love the idea of a cafe bookstore, I was incredibly disappointed in the level of food that was provided. The breakfast burrito I ordered had raw bacon, and was so oily that it left a genuine puddle of oil under it. The smashed avo was good. When I attempted to find a waitress to tell this to, I was ignored, and after waiting for 20 minutes I decided it just wasnt worth it and paid. The man who served me at the register also wasnt interested. A disappointing experience for what could be a great place.

I'm going to go out of my way to buy all my Christmas books here because they were good enough to eject the amazingly entitled person who thought he doesn't need to adhere to COVID safe protocols because he decided there was no need, and then gave them one star for doing the right thing.

Such poor customer service. Too interested in talking to each other rather than interacting with customers. Yes and no answers and making jokes about a customer choice. Plenty of other helpful book stores to buy from.

Nice books but every book store does, small shop that is very cramped with the layout. I really didn't like the feel of the store and was happy to get out. I usually love book stores aswell.

Great shop right in the centre of the New Farm shopping village! They have books on all topics! With a big focus on architecture cooking and travel as well as history and classical works

This store is run by covidians who enforced a mask mandate to the point of insanity. I advise everyone to browse books in the store, crease them pages and not buy anything

Great selection of books and a lovely store. The staff are friendly and helpful and have given me great recommendations when I've asked. A great local bookshop!

one of the few bookstores in the area. they stock most new releases plus best sellers. I've called up and they've been kind to place books aside for me too.

Really helpful very good selection of children's books and games Excellent stock for a special occasion and the cards were innovative and reasonably priced.

What a nice book shop! A good selection of kids books, knowledgeable and friendly staff. I can see why Mary Ryan's has been around so long! Cheers John

Cute little bookstore with a well curated list of titles for sale. Grab a book and settle into some relaxed reading at one of the many nearby cafes!

Lovely people who may not have had the book I went there for but did however suggest a few places, since being new to Brisbane; what a kind gesture.

Made to feel super uncomfortable and followed non stop around the store while trying to find a book for a birthday present. Definitely wont go back.

Great cook selection and greeting cards ! Staff is happy to leave you alone to browse, but also to provide a recommendation if you ask!

Beautiful bookstore - the lady who works there with red hair was less than pleasant after we bought close to $300 worth of books. Sad

Very good selection of books, but terrible customer service .. made me feel I will see what books are available and look online

Lovely bookstore with a nice vibe. Just a pity it smells from the Big Issue bloke out front who chain-smokes all day
