“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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 ????”
“Beautiful, cozy neighborhood bookstore with a wide variety of speculative fiction in French and English!! Matthew is very friendly with a passion with bringing together people in his community. Check out the social events every Friday!”
“I would like to thank Camille very sincerely. Conscientious, proactive, very attentive, she helped me find books on the very vast subject of Love (seen from a spiritual, philosophical angle). As a thorough search was not possible during my stay in the store, she took the trouble to note down my contact details and found some very relevant books for me, which I was able to purchase two days later from his colleagues, just as friendly.”

“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!”
“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 .

“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
“This is a great neighborhood games and toys store. I have been buying gifts for my children there for years. No matter their age, there is always something suitable. It's inspiring. Plus, they can package your purchases for you. It’s handy for last minute gifts.”
“Lovely bookstore that has many details that make a visit to this shop a unique experience. It is more remarkable since we see bookstores disappear. Thanks for the chair or two to skim through books; I did not feel any pressure to buy. The attendant was helpful when I asked about earth art books.”
“This is a big Renaud Bray with lots of choices and variety (books, kitchen supply, gemstones, board games, toys, etc.) Great place if you are searching for a wide range of stuff!”
“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.”
“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”
“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. ✨”
“A great used bookstore. They have soooo many books, and you can find things you never expected as you look through what seems like an endless collection!! Highly recommend.”
“I love this place, my second go to for books. My only complaint is that you guys removed the calligraphy section and replaced it with baby toys. Please bring it back it was so much better ?
Response: I don’t know how to reply to comments so here’s my answer
I specifically liked the options for different calligraphy pens and the variety in sketch books there, I got a lot of my school supplies there (and personal stuff too) because the stuff was really high quality. I do a lot of art so that’s where I got a lot of the things I have today.”
“Nice independent bookstore right downtown. Everything is well organized and some books have little summaries handwritten by staff on cue cards. I love that old-style feel. You can order books online from them and if they don't have them, they'll order it for you. Takes a bit longer than the big A but it feels so much nicer to support a home-grown business.”
“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!”

“An unhurried shopping experience. Plus if you don't find it on their shelves, they're ready to order it for delivery. The fidelity points make for an alternative means of currency:)”
“I reserve by telephone and I am always answered with courtesy, what can I say about the Place Longueuil branch, everything is there, choice of gifts, cards and books.”
“About the cooking classes,
Johnathan, the owner and chef, is part artist, part scientist, part magician and part educator.
He is a food hero who wears his cape on the front while he spins his magic to delight our senses and inform our understanding of the delicious and the delectable.
This guy and this store are absolutely amazing.
Treat yourself or a foodie that you care about to a truly wonderful experience.
You will savor. You will spend quality time. You will learn and you will celebrate the wonders of this fundamental, ever-present art form.
Bonne appetite”

“A vast quantity of books for a very good price! You can find some unique limited edition books of classic literature for collectors. The staff is friendly and they inform you very well about their offers.”
“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!”

“I really like this branch of Renaud Bray! Spacious and comfortable for searching for a book, a gadget or a simple original kitchen tool. Very joyful and happy. The employees are very nice and very friendly and that is VERY important to us as loyal customers. They stay open until 10 p.m.!”
“Cette belle petite librairie au marché Jean Talon est magnifique. On trouve des idées cadeaux, des gadgets, des livres de cuisine très bien surtout en français ❤️?? ainsi que des ustensiles !Aujourd'hui ils ont mis leurs beaux paniers à l'extérieur mais les prix sont élevés !!La fille était très gentille et très accueillante.J'ai aimé leurs sacs réutilisables et modifiables ainsi que les petits pots de cuisine...”

“Pleasant, local place of discovery. I order both online and in person. Friendly and warm customer service. I even make the detour even though the big chains are closer to home. Would you like to open a branch in La Prairie? ??”
