“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. ?”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Never had a hard time finding exactly what I need and when that certain item on your list isn't jumping out at you the crew are always a huge help... shout out to all the beauty's that aided me along my way through my university experience... would recommend more people give it a try”
“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.”
