“I live one block from this iconic establishment is so incredibly special and unique and just feels like old New York and certainly is an icon and a staple here in the Williamsburg area. The solution books is truly overwhelming from classic books to fashion to coffee table to not to mention the incredible stationary cards and pins. The staff is so lovely and it’s great location and just always consistent. Great service. I have here all the time they have the best coffee table books ever for the perfect gift to bring to a hose for their party. I love it so much. It’s one of the last remaining actual genuine, authentic Williamsburg establishments.”
“Beautiful ambiance. Very cutesy decor. Nice bar downstairs and it has a backyard. Black woman owned bookstore and bar in Bedstuy ! Staff were super nice and friendly. Would love to visit again in warmer months. My only complaints are 1. I sat downstairs at the bar for 30 minutes without service. Went back upstairs and was told by the one worker upstairs that I need to order my drink with him, pay for It there, then give him a few minutes to come downstairs to serve me. Very confusing but I think that was based on short staffing issue because later on, there was a bartender downstairs at the actual bar.
2. a glass of wine cost about $17 and it’s barely half a glass ? seems overpriced to me. Otherwise this is a dope spot.”
“This local bookstore has become my ultimate comfort place throughout my 4+ years living in Queens. On a beautiful day, I’ll even walk all the way to Kew and Willow from Forest Hills. The staff is incredibly warm and inviting — always excited to provide a great reading recommendation or to have a chat. The curation of titles is excellent and it truly has a community-oriented feel. I wish my work schedule gave me more flexibility to go to EVEN MORE of the events (and when it does I’ll be there!), but the ones I have gone to are beautifully organized and a much needed safe space in these crazy times we’re living in. I’ll go out of my way to not only recommend this shop, but to pre-order my favorite titles there so I can support Kew and Willow in every way possible.
I feel so incredibly lucky to have a local bookstore like Kew and Willow that I come back to time and time again — where I can feel a sense of quiet joy and comfort. I will never stop going and I can’t recommend enough for all fellow book lovers to come through their doors.
Thank you to the Kew and Willow team for bringing magic. x”
“It’s actually insane how perfect this store is. It has a phenomenal assortment of books with a creative layout by subgenre. Want splatterpunk? Horror romance? Literary? They’ve got sections for it! The dim lighting and dark paint makes the space feel incredibly cozy and comforting, in an eerie haunted house way. Feeling too claustrophobic? They have a backyard with plentiful seating! There’s a restroom, always clean, with free tampons. There is a cafe with an excellent drinks menu and local baked goods, and wine and beer! The non book merch is soooo cute; it’s a struggle not to drop hundreds of dollars here. Pins, cards, stickers, jewelry, socks, tees, etc. The staff are all so warm and welcoming too. And the open hours are long, with lots of cool events in the evenings! Genuinely this is my favorite business in all of Brooklyn.”

“This is my favorite bookstore in the area. Of course the selection is great, but what makes it stand out is the warm and friendly atmosphere and the staff that is not only so knowledgeable, but is so willing to help. They’re also willing to hang back if you just want to browse, but I love getting their recs.”

“Extremely knowledgeable in seforim, and extremely patient. Taking the time to show me where the exact books I was looking for were located. Oh and the new store is HUGE!!!!”
“A great place to just chill and read, have a cup of java, very easy to find what you need!! My favorite store!!
Also got to meet my favorite author last night, Douglas Preston!”
“An amazing old style real book store! They have a huge selection of used books and new best sellers arrive every day. The owners are extremely knowledgeable and offer excellent choices. I read 2 to 3 books a week and absolutely love this store. There is nothing like turning the pages of a real book!”
“I adore this store and visit every time I am in town. The highlight of my business trips are always browsing this store. Their customer service is beyond stellar. There is always someone around to help locate something or answer questions. The folks who answer the phone are always very polite and helpful. Their membership is a great value and comes with a cute card!
The above and beyond: I had requested a hold for an incoming item that was delayed - it was an hour before I had to catch a train (won't be back for a few months) and last ditch effort called to ask if it had arrived. They were still processing the day's delivery. The woman on the phone could have easily told me I needed to wait until I received a call that it was ready and I would have understood, but instead she located the item and prepped it for pickup. I was able to purchase it and make my train. Beyond grateful for their amazing service.”
“One of my favorite bookstores in NYC. Lots of great fiction, graphic novels, social justice oriented books, books by POC authors, and liberatory content, including People’s History posters and zines. I adore the vibe of this bookstore and the people who work here are warm, kind, and great at recommending perfect books. A staple Bed-Stuy establishment that represents the community in many ways. Please let this bookstore stay in our community for a long time ?”
“I enjoyed buying my journals here, spent the afternoon wanting the eclectic assortment of goodies I brought back home. Compliments to your buyer's for one of a kind writing equipment and good picks for the naturalist that I am:) Thankful....”
“I ordered a book online. The customer service once I placed my order was top notch. I received notifications on each step and all links for tracking worked perfectly. The part I didn’t expect was the care surrounding packaging for transport. The packaging told me EVERYTHING I needed to know about Nicholas Brooklyn. If this type of packaging doesn’t show you they care about books… I really don’t know what else does. This shows they love books just as much as the person ordering. ??????”
“Great selection of classic adult and children books. Great number of art books too. Very nice wrapping service during the holidays. The postcard selection could be better but overall it's a lovely store.”
“Skip Amazon and come here instead! I walked past this shop and was immediately drawn in by its warm, soulful vibe. The staff is incredibly kind, and they have a beautiful selection of crystals, sound bowls, and self-growth books. I ended up buying Himalayan salt candle holders that beat Amazon's prices and quality by a mile.
Definitely stop in if you want to add some calm, meaningful energy to your space.”
“Such an adorable local graphic novel store that has an amazing catalog of books, zines, art from local and classic artists. Such a gem of a place, come support this awesome local bookstore.”
“I’m surprised because they have a lot of books 📚 there 😍 I bought few Islamic books for my kids!!!
Salesman was so friendly and kind 🩷”
“Like If a treehouse turned into a dreamy store pulling stars from the sky, weaving art from clouds, pressed flowers, and glittery aquarium soil, selling trinkets, ephemera, & zines made by the community”

“The Spanish classes are so wonderful! I've found the instructors to be patient, kind, and amazing at encouraging students to speak up and learn in class. I've only take the virtual courses so far, which have been really engaging despite taking place online (where it may feel tough to speak up). All of the students were there to learn, which made class super fun and interesting. Thank you for the amazing TV, music, and movie recs too!”
