“The lady working there went above and beyond helping me find a Bible case to fit my slim line Bible and had one brought up from their Victoria store. Supper helpful. Didn’t catch her name but she was there working on Aug 27 when I picked it up. Thanks!”
“Cathy and Rob are always welcoming and wonderful. The coffee is fantastic, the tea is fortifying, and Cathy is a true Booktender; if you tell her what you are after, chances are this magical woman knows which book you need. She has brought in a wonderful selection of bath goodies and is officially an introverts paradise. And yes, there ARE super squishy big reading chairs. ?”
“My favourite atore on the Island. I have been going there consistently for years. Excellent selection, the emoloyees are amazing, they host magic gatherings and are behind sooooooo much fund raising in Nanaimo!
R.I.P. Mike, I'll miss you my friend.”
“Top shelf independent bookstore with a huge, constantly changing selection of books on every subject, for every taste, at great prices. There's no substitute for browsing in a brick and mortar bookstore. The owner is very amiable and helpful. Truly a Nanaimo gem, especially in this age of the big online realtors. Strongly deserving of local support”
“I’ve been going here for for close to 20yrs and the people who work there are gems. So much dedication and love for their community, also, great books and friendly staff!”
“I recently ordered a matching game (Eric Carle art) that my family was trying to replace. We couldn't find it anywhere, until I found The Children's Treehouse website. They also had Spanish language Piggie and Elephant books, that I had been looking for. The package arrived (from Nanaimo to Toronto) promptly and in good condition. Very satisfied. Thank you!”
“they always have exactly what i'm looking for and then some! super convenient to pick up pens/pencils/etc without having to leave the campus. the hoodies and trackpants are also super comfy i'll definitely be buying more.”
“Pretty good book store had a nice Starbuck inside aswell to get a drink while you read or look about but sometimes it gets crowded but overall pretty nice place would recommend for a nice quiet evening and reading”
“Storefront has a good variety of books. Owner, Andrée has ordered in a few books for me, and with a smile. Windowseat also participates in community book signings and events.”
