Andover Bookstore is the oldest independently operated bookstore in the country, established in 1809. This small oasis of calm offers a great selection of books and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Customers praise the store's lovely atmosphere, helpful staff, and historical significance within the community. Whether browsing on a Sunday or attending an author event, visitors consistently have a pleasant experience at this cherished local business. As one of the last remaining independent bookstores, Andover Bookstore is a beloved part of the community that deserves support to keep its legacy alive.
A true gem and must visit. They recently moved locations but maintained the charm and elegance of a longstanding independent bookstore. Money well spent and time is never wasted here!
