Bindlestiff offers a selection of book that reflect the literate, humorous, leftist politics and personality of the neighborhood so it's a great place to visit as a traveler if you want to get a sense of West Philadelphia, Superb selection of books for both adults and kids. No matter who you are, if you like to read, you will find something fun here. Highly recommended.

Probably one of the best book selections I’ve seen in years!!! Titles are very recent and decently priced. Such a hidden gem.

Brought my daughter here after we had a picnic in the nearby park. There's always a few pp outside gathered around the discount book section outside just chatting away and adding to the overall good vibes. It's hard NOT to walk in here! The bookstore is super small, but the quality makes up for it. It's easy to find things while scrolling through new books and not feeling in the way. The owner is really helpful with book ordering or answering any of my random questions. It was just fun watching my daughter explore the children's section and picking out a book, taking it to the counter and the owner entertaining her by ringing her up lol Very much a bookstore adding to the quirky character of Baltimore Ave.

Great shop. Owner is very nice and very helpful. He orders books if they’re not in stock. Great selection of political and social issues books. Reasonable prices. If you’re in West Philly check them out!!

I have never browsed the store in person, but I recently had a great experience placing a special order. I called on a Wednesday to see if they had a specific book, and then placed a special order for it over the phone since they were out of stock. I received an email saying it had arrived on Saturday (you can also give a phone number to contact). I forgot to ask how much it cost on the phone, but I am happy to pay a little bit more to support a great local business, especially right now. The employees were friendly and knowledgeable, and it was overall an excellent experience! I will definitely go back in the future, and can't wait to eventually shop there in person.

Homey and wonderfully unkempt, in a magical, lost world sort of way.
