“I’ve been coming here since the 90s on trips to Seattle. It’s a truly great bookstore in both ethos and inventory. I always find something unexpected that feels like a book hunting event. There are great places for a bite to eat on the block. Go. You won’t regret it.”

“The most charming book store ever! I went here for the event with Edd Kimber yesterday and it was so much fun! There’s an endless amount of cookbooks to browse and so many selections that you wouldn’t even think of! I ended up walking away with Edd’s newest book, Chocolate Baking and his best seller, Small Batch Bakes, he signed both for me after the demonstration and was such a pleasure to chat with. He made us the chocolate mousse with sea salt, olive oil and toasted, sugared hazelnuts, which was DEVINE. I’ll be coming back to this store for all my future cook book purchases and be looking out for events, too!”

“Wanderlust is exactly what people mean when they say shop local and support independent local bookstores. The staff is knowledgeable and welcoming and contributes positively to the community in a variety of ways. Online shopping through bookshop.org can support their shop too, and they can help shoppers access audiobooks too. As a local self-published author, I love that they support writers and creators like me too!”

“We were on a fun trip with our 14-year-old son. And I thought this bookstore might be good for us to drop by. He wasn't convinced that there would be anything for him there. We were so pleasantly surprised that she had everything organized so well. We all found books we liked and the setting was really nice. She is nice art pieces at the very top of the ceiling and then she has these amazing wooden bookcases so the whole vibe was really wonderful. The woman who was running the bookstore was so knowledgeable and patient with our questions and discussions. We highly recommend you drop by and take about 30 minutes to at least look through her great collection.”

“Every year I visit to see my children I bring them here. Has a great selection and staff are super friendly. Both of my kids are autistic and they have never been treated as other there. The small business ran by a family is obvious and appreciated. I hope this place stays around for years and years.”

“Amazing staff and a fanstasic place to play. I've frequented Phoenix for the last five years for random draft nights, and have always left feeling supported and more engaged in my hobbies. I recently had an order shipped, and it was fufilled faster than I expected. Nothing but good things to say about this shop, give them a chance if you haven't already :) <3”

“A warm and inviting little community bookshop. I was away from Greenwood for a decade, and it was just as wonderful as I remembered when I finally made it back.

Also, they get their coffee beans from Cloud City, an absolute institution in the Seattle roasting scene, which makes for a really lovely cup to savor with your new reads. :)”

“I discovered Queen Anne Book Company on a recent visit to Seattle. A small, independent shop, it offered a nice selection of books, along with some small gift items. If in the Queen Anne area, perusing the store’s selection is a nice way to spend time.”

“Still the best book store with a café in the North end. The café is great. There is a place to sit and read. I'm spending more money on periodicals now and B&N has a great section.”

“This bookstore has one of the best fiction sections I've ever encountered—a huge range of authors and many books by each of those authors. They even had some recent releases in excellent condition. And great prices! The staff are warm and friendly as well. I wished I lived in Seattle so I could visit all the time”

“The staff was super friendly and helpful! Interesting history behind the taxidermy birds. They have educational kits you can borrow for outreach or homeschool programs. There is also a gift shop. Parking on the street in front from 10-3 or paid parking across the street in the mall parking garage.”

“I stop by here on occasion to look for their varied selection of incense and oils, and the staff is incredibly kind and friendly every time. There is one man with long gray hair who occasionally works the cashier who's always a joy to talk to whenever I come in. I remember coming in wearing a NiGHTS Into Dreams shirt once and he was fascinated by it and asked who the character on it was. I'm going to miss this place when I leave.”

“Amazing little theater with super friendly staff and comfy seats. Only about 50 seats though, so I’d recommend buying tickets ahead of time. So far I’ve seen two films here, and I plan to keep coming back.”

“I don't even think the photos or the website does this place justice, it's really impressive and worth the trip. Saw all kinds of woodpeckers including Pileated and Downey and just in general enjoyed the boardwalk. Will be going back!”

“Every visit here- whether I’m with a friend, on my own, or with my whole family- is such a pleasant experience. The staff is consistently kind, but I’m especially grateful for our most recent visit. As a mom, you sometimes worry about bringing children into quieter spaces, even when they are being respectful. The staff member who helped us was so incredibly sweet to my daughter, offering her small stones and stickers, which immediately put my mind at ease. Thank you for being such a magical gem!”

“Such warmth when you step in the door! For only 400 square feet, they pack in as much variety as they can, and are quick with a special order for a title they don’t have on hand. Love visiting!”

“Overall, a great book store. The person working the counter was very knowledgeable and nice. While their collection is beyond impressive. Lots of Russian books from fiction to history to philosophy. It's a great place for anyone interested in books. Highly recommend.”

“Booktree is our favorite local book store! We love the atmosphere and conversations with Chris. They have been able to order every book we were looking for including an out of print copy and an older version of a book I needed to match a set. I also appreciate the used versions of history books available for our homeschooling needs.
Every time we park on the street my 9 yr old daughter yells from the back seat “Yes! We’re going to Booktree!””
