“I love comics. This place has a wild array of comics, it's hard to not go insane and blow my entire paycheck on loads of stories. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I am a huge fan, and someday I hope to have a book here!”
“Very unique shop :) They have a great selection of used and new books. I especially like the poetry section, there are lots of rare/small press publications. It's also cool to pop in for live music.”
“Excellent experience.
Delivery from the US to the UK was very fast. The book was securely packaged and arrived in perfect condition.
The 1981 edition is in very good shape, especially for the price.
Communication was top-level — responsive and professional. I really appreciate the service.
Highly recommended.”
“Awesome shop, great selection, everything on the shelves was in fantastic condition. I filled some holes in my collection, and Jude was extremely helpful and got all my items shipped home promptly and for a super fair shipping price. When I received them, they were packed with unbelievable care. Cannot recommend enough.”
“Unbelievable little bookstore. Everyone who works there is an avid reader and a good listener. And if they don't have a title, they get it for you in a day or two. You can't go wrong here!”
“I came in looking for a book on a subject that they didn't have, but the gentleman I spoke with offered up some alternatives and shared his knowledge on a few subjects related to my inquiry. Overall great experience”

“Another San Francisco staple. So much history here. Fantastic selection. I particularly like their niche, hard to find books. Their poetry room is wonderful. Been coming here for decades. It’s like a second home. Staff are kind and helpful. I can spend hours here and always walk away with some books.”
“We just received our 5th custom bookshelf from Books & Bookshelves and couldn’t be happier. The other 4 have lasted years, thru several moves. The quality and price can’t be beat!”
“Beautiful bookstore in the heart of SF mission st. Parking is a hard but great ambience and fantastic indoor music concerts. Def a great place to spend an evening”
“amazingly curated queer bookstore. great sections on Indigineity, lgbti+ fiction and nonfic, poetry, greeting cards etc. many fun staff picks and very kind workers! 10/10”
“I can't believe this shop is still open! I thought it closed down several years ago! I used to make my mom take me here for my birthday every year in HS because they had great Paul Frank and. Emily the Strange items! So many good memories.”
“A gem of a bookstore, featuring basically any cookbook or book about food you could imagine. The folks who work there are extremely helpful, and the environment is excellent.”
“Bookshop West Portal should be on everyone's best book store list! It's my personal favorite - it feels like a warm and inviting community space, the staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they know their books. I love going there. Their stock is always good, and they can order anything that might be missing quickly. They also regularly sponsor author readings, and book clubs. For example, Irish author Ethel Rohan curates an Irish book club, recommending books to read and authors to follow. It's such a wonderful neighborhood - City - amenity.”
“Magical place with a fireplace and lovely seats to just skim thru a potential book you'd like to buy. We came in looking for a book but ended up just getting some of their unique candles - great curated stuff.”
“My absolute favorite bookstore! If they don't have a title for which I am searching, they will actually order it and call me when it arrives. I mean seriously, who else does that?”
“I love supporting our San Anselmo library! I was able to buy books for everyone in my family for a very affordable price. It is fun to search the shelves looking for unique finds. The volunteers are very kind.”
“Adobe Books is a great community gathering place that features brilliant artists and musicians. In an era where the commons are dying, it brings me a lot of satisfaction to know i can stop by adobe books any day and be around enriching conversation, and great, affordable books.”
“Wonderful bookstore, that has both children, young adult, and adult books. Lots of variety and options and they'll happily order a book if it's out of stock or one they don't carry. Look forward to stopping by in the future.”
“San Francisco staple. Green Apple is one of my favorite bookshops in the city. Their selection is unmatched. They have plenty of new and used books to choose from. Trading and selling your own used books is very easy. You have to check larger bags at the door, which is a bit cumbersome but makes sense for reducing theft. I can spend hours here and almost always walk out with a few books.”
“A great bookstore full of gently (if used at all) books at amazingly low prices. Great for bestsellers, cookbooks, kids' books and CDs and DVDs, too. Tucked inside the Belvedere Tiburon Library. A hidden gem!”
“Kamisha (sp? :) was very knowledgeable about the inventory & nice to talk to. They have a large selection, so having a helpful guide who knows where to find what you ask for without having to look it up is great.
Some places the weedrista ? just stare at the packages along with you looking to see what has CBG in it. Kamisha knew her stuff & offered helpful alternatives as well.
Good shop, good staff.”

“Whoah, I was shocked by the collection at this little tiny bookstore. They sell used/donated books and the proceeds go to the local library. I've been to other bookstores that benefit local libraries, and normally the collection is so sad. I'm an avid fiction reader, and pretty picky, and in their fiction section they had tons of great books published in the last couple years that I have loved (for around $5 for most books) In the travel section I found a fairly recent guidebook for Montreal which will be awesome for our upcoming trip. My husband couldn't stop raving about the 4D? John Wick DVDs he found for cheap that he said would easily go for 10x the price on Amazon. We also found lots of cute books for our toddlers that were 2-3 dollars each. Overall, very small shop but some great finds!!”
“I had a great beginner class here. The instructor was friendly and very informative. The building is nice with interesting equipment. I look forward to taking more classes”
“A bright, refreshing space right by GG Park. I especially enjoy their small press and zine sections. They sell a lot of work (prints, stickers, clothes, knick knacks, etc) by local artists.
I love Green Apple. Green Apple Books on the Park has a unique personality from the main location on Clement. They compliment each other well. This store does not have as many used books as the main branch.”
“Glad to have such a great book shop in the neighborhood.
They take requests, so if you want to shop local and they don’t have what you’re looking for in stock, they’ll make it happen!”
“Very kind workers, very cool store, would've loved to have heard the story about the CNT FAI helmet but unfortunately the worker at the time did not know the tale, still very cool guy though! Love the bookmarks too!”
“You simply MUST visit if you have any appreciation for the lost art of bookmaking or any interest in typography and the mechanics of printing. The machinery used here date back to some of the earliest printing processes and are still working.This place is a museum that still produces beautiful art books. The fine people working here are true artisans and are happy to share their work with you. Call ahead to be sure you can take the tour, or attend a show featuring their amazing artwork on display.”
“It was great to see items from the shows in the store and own a memory. We were able to find some unique gifts for friends and families. The staff is knowledgeable, patient and efficient.”
