“Oh my gosh. This bookstore will forever have me in a chokehold. Went with my friend twice while we were in mtl this weekend. The staff are also all so sweet and knowledgeable!! Had an amazing poetry section aswell!”
“There I was able to find the gifts and toys I was looking for for the family!
Full collection of Comics, Comics, Manga, Pokemon, Starwars, Marvel, DC, Comics, Batman, Superman, Spiderman, Madame Web, Spawn and more!
I always go there when I'm in Montreal ????”
“Cash only bookstore, lack of french books. Great pricing with a 1$ books section, nice aesthetic vibe. The place smells sometimes but apart from that very good spot for second hands.”
“Great bookstore with not only a large choice of books (in French) but excellent advisors who will take time with you to suggest you different authors and books and collections - and even propose you another bookstore if they don't have what you are looking for .

“A wonderful selection of books for all ages and reading levels. The bookstores took the time to really understand what I was looking for and described their recommendations in great detail. I've seen them do the same for several other customers. This bookstore is a gem!”
“This is a great neighborhood bookstore with well-curated lists in English and French, including many local authors, and fiction & nonfiction about Montreal. Perfect place to find something excellent to read; knowledgeable and friendly staff.”
“I went there with my friend once. The bookstore is super beautiful and has a very pleasant vintage feel! The gentleman who works there is super nice and welcoming! This place definitely deserves a 5 star!”
“Encore has turned into our new routine of checking vinyls, posters, and books. They have a nice collection of books and posters with reasonable price. We check on vinyls every time and we find interesting stuff! Its very cozy and staff are very nice!”

“What a good place, best bookstore ive been in at montreal so far. Good selection of philosophy books, with most at them at $3-4 only.
Worker is also very nice!”
“This bookstore is one of the most secret and richest treasures in Montreal. It's a veritable Ali-Baba's cave for lovers of classic literature and other belles-lettristes, as the Germans say so well. Everyone will find what they are looking for, at a price that will allow them to fill a big bag of books from which to draw pleasure, wisdom or comfort.”
“This bookstore is an outright treasure. I hopped in here while on vacation to take a quick peek, maybe get a few children's books, and a simple novel for myself to practice French. And I left feeling this experience will likely be one of the top highlights of my trip. They were so welcoming, helpful and enthusiastic to share all kinds of recommendations and information. I am so grateful I stumbled upon this place and that places & humans like this exist. ✨”
“Oh what a beautiful bookstore and local business. Beautiful window and such a beautiful and calm bookstore. A large selection of Quebec books. Go encourage them instead of ordering online from the American whose name starts with A and ends with N. There is no problem with outdoor parking, it is free and spacious. Make sure you lock your vehicle securely.”
“Been here multiple times, the store owner is so incredibly kind and patient with me every single time. Always look forward to coming here even if I can't do it often. Cannot recommend this place enough”
“I love this neighborhood bookstore so much. It smells like paper. I like to stroll among the pens and inks, discovering beautiful books. It’s always a comforting visit when I go!”
“Very pleasant neighborhood bookstore. Kind staff and good advice on buying novels based on what you like. Practical for ordering books which arrive quickly, and advantageous loyalty card. A little treasure on the Fleury promenade.”
“I can only imagine the difficulty of what it would be like to own and operate a store like this today. Excellent customer service! They carry a vast selection of books and toys that cater from children to adults both in French and English. Well worth a visit!”
“A beautiful bookstore full of books on Sri Aurobindo in French, English and Sanskrit! They also have candles, yoga or mediation mats. They have an unguided meditation room on their second floor every Wednesday! The woman who welcomed me was very nice and very friendly!”
“Locally owned bookseller, world-class customer service; a touch on the smaller side but it's my go-to for ordering books! The staff is always helpful, friendly, and easy to get ahold of.”
“Charming neighborhood bookstore, courteous and competent employees. I went there to sell my books and I found the experience more pleasant than at L'Échange. I had time to wander around the store a bit and there were used and new books interspersed, organized by genre. When it comes to selling books, they are interested in literature, philosophy, etc. They don't really take recipe books, English books or young adult books. At 222 (opposite), they will buy young adult/teen books. The two branches buy books at 25% of the market price. In short, good experience and I recommend for buyers (although the selection is not huge) and sellers!
PS: the books you don't sell could delight the foundations and patients of your local hospital, so don't hesitate to head there with what you have left!”

“I go every so often to pick up a new notebook. I find it a dismal reflection of where we're at as a society how hard it is to find any kind of notebook or journal Without lined pages - just blank pages! They keep a single model of blank paged book in stock, which ive purchased several times now, next to maybe 50 varieties of lined pagers. I ask you - how are we expected to exercise our free will, our unburdened imaginations, to nurture the evolving minds of our children, if we only have lined pages to work with????”

“What a beautiful shop! A carefully curated selection of English books—bestsellers, literary, literary light, graphic novels, cooking, kids, and a focus on Montreal and Judaica (eg a graphic novel about Leonard Cohen.) Everything in the staff picks section looked interesting. These are the kinds of shops that survive the amazons and indigos. Highly recommend.”
“I’m absolutely amazed by the incredible collection of items this shop offers! The quality of their products is outstanding — I especially love that their caps are New Era and that they carry so many unique collectible items. The staff is always friendly and welcoming; I recently had to make a small exchange because of a mistake on my part, and the employee who helped me was incredibly kind, polite, and helpful. I truly appreciate his excellent service. I highly recommend this store — the students working here provide exceptional customer service and make every visit a great experience!”
“I absolutely love buying random gifts at Archambault at Place des Arts in Montreal. It’s become my go-to spot for unique and thoughtful presents, and it’s just so convenient since it’s right near the metro entrance, making it super easy to pop in whenever I’m nearby. The store has such a great vibe, with a fantastic selection of music, books, and even kitchenware. It’s always a joy to browse through their collection, whether I’m looking for a new album or a hidden gem of a novel.
What makes this place even better is the friendly, knowledgeable staff—they’re always happy to help with recommendations or point me in the right direction. The layout is spacious and organized, so it’s never overwhelming. Plus, with its prime location near Place des Arts, it’s the perfect stop before or after checking out a show or event in the area.
Overall, Archambault is a must-visit for anyone who loves music, literature, or just hunting for a great gift. It’s a true gem in the heart of Montreal’s arts scene!”

“This is what a bookstore should be! Inviting, well curated (with a discernable point of view) and a broad selection. The location and the highly burnished wood floors just adds to the overall appeal of the place. A really good place for relaxed browsing and snooping.”
