I consider it one of the best bookstores in the region. It's worth visiting and before going down, stop at the cafe on the ground floor for a nice cappuccino.

Great bookstore. We visited after going to the MIT museum. Nice variety of books and a section of books authored by MIT professors. There is a large section of books published by MIT Press called "Essential Knowledge Series" on a wide variety of important topics. Cozy kids section with lots of books.

Great experience. We were able to get some amazing books for our library in Jamaica at Western STEM Academy. Thank you for having us.
