“I stopped here on a whim with my prek daughter on her birthday when her pocket full of birthday money. I grew up in Los Osos, near the first location (near Carlocks) but had not stepped foot in the door in fifteen years. It was magical. I've admittedly shopped on Amazon for the last decade, but watching her eyes light up as she sorted through the puzzles, costumes and toys was wonderfully nostalgic. I get the convenience of Amazon and big box shopping, but we lose the wonder of experiencing a shop full of imagination. We found a couple toys we had been eyeing online elsewhere for similar and even less money. My daughter was able to pick several treasures with money to spare. I also value toys that last, not just quality-wise, but as in toys that kids will play with through multiple stages. Toys that inspire them to play creatively instead of entertain them. The store was packed with great options! While she explored the toys, my toddler played with the hands on train set and I caught up with the owner. What a lovely place. We joined the birthday club and will likely be back every birthday we can.”

“The owner, Patrick, has worked with me several times to help me get a comic rated and bricked and to help set up a demo for some of my favorite product. All of this for no direct benefit of his own. I will go nowhere else for my comic purchases.”

“Discovering this enchanting boutique was a serendipitous delight! While perusing its treasures, my astute assistant and I were captivated by a vibrant, kaleidoscopic button-down shirt that has effortlessly blossomed into my daily work attire, garnering an abundance of compliments. The ethereal melodies of eclectic tunes waft through the air, creating a harmonious ambiance as I explore the exquisite array of ceramics and one-of-a-kind decor that grace this whimsical haven.”

“This is my favorite used bookstore. I visit the San Luis Obispo area several times a year, and this is one place I have to visit when I am in town. The store is huge so there are books in every corner and all along the way. There is variety, volumes and varying quality. I can get lost here in a very good way. Only other bookworms can understand. The prices are a real value. Service is like visiting a library. You get help if you need it and ask.”

“Awesome selection, quality and prices were very reasonable. Beautiful Campus and the workers had great knowledge and was super friendly. Recommend anyone going school supply shopping to take a quick, gorgeous drive out to the campus and buy there. You won't be disappointed”

“Anytime I come to SLO I come here just for books, always has what I need and want, if it doesn't it usually is there soon. My first place to go to when I want more manga and whatnot”

“We were very happy that it was open to the public and that it had a very large, well-stocked offer, a very well-stocked shop and very friendly staff, we were in very good hands there.”
“The carefully curated books are so worth the purchase. We enjoyed all of the EAH read alouds so much that some of them brought tears. It was such an amazing journey to take through history, learning and re-learning with my daughter all the things that I'd forgotten and am pretty sure I never learned in school. The gentle approach BFB takes with the lessons makes it easy for children to digest and want to continue learning more.”
