The Book Wardrobe is a small independent bookstore located in a historical building in…read moreStreetsville. On entering the building, follow a beautifully carved wood railing, up to the 2nd floor. The bookstore fills a studio with an assortment of thoughtfully displayed books and tasteful gifts. They have a cute kids section too. What a gem of a place to pick up a wonderful book for yourself or a special person! The owner was friendly and excited to offer book recommendations. They have a small curated stock but also take book orders for pick up. She mentioned since covid, there is sometimes a shipping delay. I appreciate how honest and upfront she was about orders. Street parking is metered but the small side streets are not.

There is a Tea Room on the first floor along with a couple other shops. There isn't a ton of books readily available but reasonable for the boutiqueness of it. I was looking for a particular book for my niece for Christmas and much to my dismay I was unable to locate it at any of the big box stores. So after doing a quick Google search I found this book boutique. I inquired via email to see if they had it and they were able to order it for me- no payment down might I add. Fantastic! I picked up my book (no extra charge!) And made a little girl very happy! From what I was told they've only been there since Sep 2017, and I certain hope they stick around! As a book lover, especially actual books not screens, 5/5!

I visited this book store with my son to pickup books for his college courses. As soon as we walked…read morein the girl offered to help us and walked us through finding all the books we needed. The text books section had signs overhead categorized by subject so it was very easy to find. It was nice to see that swag was reasonably priced, we walked out with a coffee mug and lanyard but will be back for more. I will say that college textbooks are extremely over priced but I don't think this is anything new. I hope this helps.

A bit to my own shame that I hadn't visited this place until the other day in spite of living in…read morethe same neighbourhood for years. The other evening we as a family participated in a Black history online event with Akilah Newton as presenter. We learned about the colouring/activity books she helped create in order to spread knowledge and awareness of Black Canadian heroes and history. With my knowledge (no pun intended) of this place I decided to give them a call to see if they had the books in stock, allowing me to get the books sooner, support local and also avoid shipping costs. They confirmed that they did and had the books ready for pickup when I arrived. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The store is situated an older former home in downtown Brampton that has been rezoned for commercial use - along with a few other businesses nearby. There is a reasonably large parking lot in behind. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice the layout was when I entered and the size of the place and book selection were both larger than I expected. Lots of books for all ages and all sorts of genres - such as fiction, non-fiction, spirituality, body-positivity, etc... Go and check them out and help support a very unique and vital business.

In my opinion, the best afrocentric bookstore in the GTA. The selection of books is unparalleled,…read more but more than that the gifts and products make it a go to destination even when you're not in the market for a page turner. Over the years, I have enjoyed great conversations with the owners and participated in a handful of community events held in the basement space. I especially like how they host nook talks by local authors now and then. Good thriving family operated business in Brampton. Worth a visit for sure!
