“I simply adore this book shop! They have a vast collection of new and used books and I found one I have been searching for (which I can't wait to read) and so many excellent postcards, gifts and stickers. Zoe and the rest of the staff were beyond helpful and friendly. I will be back next time I return to town.”

“Oh my goodness. I ordered a ginger chai, hot. When I tell you my jaw dropped when i took a sip of this drink, im not exaggerating. The best drink I’ve had in the time I’ve been in dc (a month), and I don’t know if anything can top it. Spicy, pungent, punchy ginger. Deep, deep flavor. Few places, if any, can do a chai NEARLY that good. Also, great ambiance, killer book selection, clearly a hub of community and a great place for people to convene. Also, for the drink I got, great price for DC. I will be back, for the ginger chai. I’m in awe.”

“I usually don't leave reviews of places I visit, but I have to sing praises of this bookshop. They have some of the best book clubs in the district and sell myriad books that you cannot find at other bookstores or Walmart or wherever. A true DC gem. I just knocked off one star because they forgot about a book I preordered until I reminded them twice about it. Better to just shop in-store.”

“Went to a book event here last night. Appreciate that the attendance was free. Their event space fits about 70 seating spaces plus standing room. I thought it would be much more packed, but was pleasantly surprised by the intimate atmosphere. Had an awesome time and will have to keep an eye out for their other events.”

“This is a charming Catholic Bookstore in the heart of Old Town Alexandria! Amidst the numerous book stores in Old Town, I wandered and didn't even realize it was a Catholic bookstore until I looked around at some of the book titles! I did not get a chance to talk to the Sisters at the register, as they were busy helping other patrons, but they seemed very sweet. Not only are there plenty of books, but there are also small Catholic-themed gifts, both for children and adults. It's a great place to go to find special gift or card for any occasion and/or sacramental celebration! The store is large and spread out, and feels open. Definitely will be returning!”

“My son and I stopped in this gift shop today to get our NPS passport stamps while escaping the heat for a few minutes. My son, who is less than 2, was annoyed from the heat and was a little fussy while I was trying to stamp. The clerk, Michael, brought over a Junior Ranger workbook and a wooden pin for my son. It instantly changed his whole mood. Getting to stamp his workbook was so exciting for him. He even kept it in his lap for the rest of the morning.”

“The bookstore is beautiful and well put together. But like most bookstores on college campuses it is expensive. But I also always expect that. My daughter is a student here so I went knowing I was about to be out of pocket at $600 😂 She wanted everything she saw and she is doing great in school…, it was homecoming…, she got what she wanted 😘”

“It’s a beautiful tribute honoring Abraham Lincoln. There is so much history here and lots of symbolism if only one spends time to see it. I highly recommend doing a guided tour with a ranger - these are free tours and happen at least once a day. Park rangers can provide in depth information about this memorial and the history of this memorial. From here, you will get picturesque views of the US Capitol and the George Washington monument. The Lincoln memorial bookstore has been relocated to a place near the Korean war memorial information kiosk. They also gave a couple of passport stamps you can collect. The park rangers are very helpful and can provide information about this memorial and nearby places of importance as well.”
