"An excellent range of books to choose from and postage is tossed in when you order over $75 which is super easy to do if you're a book lover"
"This bookshop is of a smaller size, located in the middle of the city, the stark contest between the busy city outside of the bookshop and the warm, cozy atmosphere within the bookshop always guarantees a wonderful visit"
"I love seeing people peeking and waiting for the shop to be opened while it was left by the keeper"
"Have been coming here for years, even when I didn't live in Melbourne"
"This cute little bookshop in Melbourne operates till late with lots of unique selection of books on their bookshelves"
An excellent range of books to choose from and postage is tossed in when you order over $75 which is super easy to do if you're a book lover. Otherwise it's only $4.50 or you can collect in store. However, I'm tipping if you go to the store it would be like a honey trap surrounded by all those magnificent books!!! My order arrived today, loving wrapped in brown paper. It was the best feeling, seeing a package wrapped like that. It feels so nostalgic. One of my books was also flat signed by the author which added to the excitement. Granted I knew that there were some flat signed copies there, however they made sure I got one as requested. Definitely my new favourite bookshop ❤️
This bookshop is of a smaller size, located in the middle of the city, the stark contest between the busy city outside of the bookshop and the warm, cozy atmosphere within the bookshop always guarantees a wonderful visit. The staff here is knowledgable and extremely helpful. Even when I don't find what I came for, I never ever left empty handed as I always end up finding an interesting book wandering around in this shop. Definitely a must-visit for those visiting the city.
I love seeing people peeking and waiting for the shop to be opened while it was left by the keeper. That means the bookshop has a lot to offer and people really keen to come inside. My guess is confirmed when I come and see the collection. Small shop but pack with a lovely collection of books. I just chose and picked a current issue book that has been intrigued me since I visited China couple years ago.
Have been coming here for years, even when I didn't live in Melbourne. One of my favourites. Staff are all lovely and are more than happy to leave you to quietly browse, or recommend. I asked on an author last Friday night and the staff took time out to show me what they have and recommend what they'd start with, but with no pressure to buy. Love this place. :-)
This cute little bookshop in Melbourne operates till late with lots of unique selection of books on their bookshelves. The warm and inviting ambiance of the interior created a cozy and homely environment that was simply enchanting. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, and I observed them assisting customers with specific interests.
Some may say tight and thoughtless, but from any reader's perspective, it's cozy and comforted with a reasonable array of your most useful books within their respective fields. Though objectively smaller than other stores, I found the 3 books I was searching for. And quite cheap compared to your options within the city, I tell ya!
such a hearty little spot - and by hearty i mean it’s really full of heart! lots of book choices from floor to ceiling and from what i overheard the clerks are ready to help and really know their stuff! btw, if you’re that type of person, i have to say, the smell of books was just extraordinary …
My favourite book store I have to visit when coming to Melbourne, it's opened late and full of delightful books. Sure you could get the books online, but where else can you browse a quaint little store, feeling and smelling all the books. They have a unique selection of all sorts of books and friendly staff.
Cute little bookshop with lots of books cramped into their bookshelves. Very cosy and homely feeling when inside. The staff are very knowledgeable and I saw them being very helpful to people with niche interests. They also have a table with staff recommendations.
I loved how quaint and warm the place is. I was looking to buy fiction and some astrophysics books. I'm pleased with my purchase and was glad to see a South Asian author in the collection! I'd love to revisit and bring my mother here when she visits.
Great collection of books, friendly staff, and good music. I went during peak hours without realising it. The crowded room presented valued realisation of sharing the space with other book lovers . Keep up the good work! …
Extremely rare to see a bookstore operating till late. Amazing collection, beautiful music, and great art. The staff picks are great. Can’t wait to go back
all new books, broad selection and some you don’t see in the other stores. a great little rabbit warren staffed by friendly faces. old school.
Great little hideaway. Chock- a -block full of a great variety of books. Even found this one that I think describe me. …
Gorgeous cosy store replete with beautiful and interesting books. I found this by accident and am very happy about that!
Cute small bookshop, lovely staff, esoteric good selection of books, been there for long time, keep going....
Lot of interesting books and titles that hard to find online. Bought Noam Chomsky’s at a reasonable price
Cute / iconic looking bookshop from the outside. Plenty of good books inside too (drawn to the classics).
Quirky lovely bookshop at the corner. Embrace your bookish soul by exploring their massive collection
The best book store in Melbourne, great selection, knowledgeable staff. Can't recommend enough
Such a small but decent bookshop, great atmosphere and helpful stuff! No ordinary bookshop!
Quirky little book shop. Great range of books you may not find anywhere else.
great gems here; picked up books i could never think of finding elsewhere.
Lovely little bookshop. Crammed to the roof with all sorts of books.
Open late at night and perfect for when you're on an urban flaneut
Great selection for a small shop and very friendly staff.
Nice little bookshop that is open late into the night.
Tiny but so well stocked. A real gem of a bookshop!
