“Guilty pleasure to come here. The books, vibe, and coffee are all super cute and good. They offer unique chocolates near the register, which are a little pricey, but worth it. Their matcha is good, their lattes are good, and the staff is super cool.
After you grab your drink, tour the witch's chamber in the basement, go to their back seating area outside, grab a book, or walk around Annapolis and do sight seeing.
Bathrooms are limited, seating can be scarce, and it can be a little crowded, so come during less busy hours if you're sensitive to that kinda stuff. I wish it was in DC, bc I would come here every day to chill.”
“Wide variety of products available in-store. Customer service is excellent. I also love the community feel at this location; there have been social/activity gatherings in the Cafe a few times when I've gone.”
“What a great store and community space!! This book shoppe has many, many books in every genre you desire! Loved coming here--so nicely organized and welcoming. I just wanted to stay all day. Great children's section too! When you enter you come into what is like a wide entry hall. There you already see some of the wonderful books available on display and a place to get assistance and also check out when you're ready. But wait -- don't hurry! Still lots to see. Go to the left and many more wonderful books neatly organized and a delightful children's area. Go right and you are in a large open space with chairs to sit and relax, read, enjoy... There are also book lover's gifts available. The walls are decorated with wonderful paintings. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Bibliophiles rejoice! This is your place to go!”

Book Stores
“This was my first time visiting the campus bookstore, and I was pleased. The staff was very friendly. I picked up my online order and bought a really nice metal Riverhawks tumbler.”
“This store has quite the collection of rare and eclectic books. Though the store isn’t especially expansive, there were half a dozen cabinets each with a dozen unique books.”
“Sporadic sales at this charity book warehouse provide the chance to get lots of books for cheap. Fill-a-bag strongly recommended. Parking can be tricky. Drop site for donations is an easily accessed shed by the door.”
“Lovely little place full to the brim of books. Feels much larger than it actually appears on the outside. The staff are quite nice and gave a warm welcome when I came in walking through the door.”
“The Ritz Carlton of Bookstores. There is none better in the entire state of Maryland. Their philosophy books are incredible and won’t be found elsewhere.”
“A beautiful, cozy and pleasant place to relax with a coffee and a book. Extensive selection of fiction and nonfiction with modern as well as classic titles. Lovely and inviting children's corner.”
