Good little store, with a café attached. The books are loosely organized, fun for a browse but when trying to find a specific book/author it is a little frustrating. For example, knitting books are scattered all over the arts/crafts section, mixed in with scattered photography, quilting, painting, drawing etc., so that you are forced to browse the whole shelf.
Other areas were organized by author last name, those were easier to browse.
Great atmosphere, employees and aesthetic though!

Books and records: my two favorite things. Abundant selections of both. No trip to Nelson is complete without a stop here.

You enter by walking through the often busy Vienna cafe, then turn into a little maze of books which are clearly organized by subject or labeled in general groupings. You can establish a credit at the store by bringing books in (I didn't do this since I'm not a local) and each book you purchase has listed a price (for example $10) which can be paid in full or split in half between cash and credit. Good selection!

My family loves Packrat Annie’s! We drive up from WA state and come to Nelson often. We always go to Packrat Annie’s. My daughter’s a bookworm and it’s her favorite place in town. They always have a good selection and great customer service. It’s also cute and fun. ?

Awesome little store inside of the great Vienna Cafe. Pricing is no inexpensive for used. Typically half the original price. Most are in good quality. Very unique finds at times due to Nelsonites being well read. Can find spiritual gems if you dig. Lots of novels. Overall an epic place. I've bought 100s of books here, many long out of print or rare, over the years.
