“We stop here every time we are in Half Moon Bay! This book store is a blast from the past for this old-time, long-time book lover. Most of these independent book stores have been forced out of business by Jeff Bezos and his steamroller of an internet store concept. This shop offers a real person who loves books to talk to! The store is well-stocked with classics and new releases. I can browse for hours here and they are happy to let you browse for hours. I always buy a couple of tempting volumes. I need to keep my pile of next reads well stacked! The value is in the whole experience! Thank you for being my favorite book store! I promise if you love books you will love this store!”

“Can’t believe I found this place only recently after living in the Bay Area for a long time. It’s easy to miss because you are either busy driving down route 1, or, after a long curvy road and just can’t wait to hit the beach. This place is a great place to drop by - for a nice drink or bites (the best breakfast braid made by la Honda bakery, available only on Saturday and Sunday), or books from local authors, or even children’s book. They have amazing live band sessions too, it’s just a great place to hang out.”

“I love this store. Lots of ever-changing inventory of used books all the time. If you are looking for beautiful books by Easton press, the folio society or franklin library they have them.”

“I walked in, found some books, and then couldn't find one book but all I knew about was vague enough descriptions I couldn't Google.A team member helped me find the book in a few minutes and offered to order it to the store because it wasn't typically sticked. Pretty cool.”
