The space is a bit packed and unpolished, but that's exactly what makes it interesting--you never know what you'll find tucked between the shelves. It has a quiet, slightly nostalgic vibe, perfect for slowing down and browsing. Not a place for quick visits, but definitely worth it if you enjoy the hunt.

The staff are friendly, and while they lack the real estate of other larger locations, you can always find something good there. For some of the feature books they put out in the tables, I've noticed they distribute them amongst all the locations, so if you were looking for a particular book that then sold out, you can check at the other locations. This location in particular I've found is good for older magazines and Blu Rays, but I've also found some good coffee table books here. Always worth the trip. BMV rocks!

My wife and I wandered into this store yesterday afternoon while taking a walk down Bloor. This store is PACKED from the front to the back and while that might overwhelm some people, I absolutely love being surrounded by thousands of books and the smell that comes with that. I spent a good thirty minutes digging through horror, Canadian history, poetry, and everything else before finally landing on something to read on the flight back home. The gentleman working was also great and definitely the kind of person I want to interact with while book shopping (I also support anyone going to see Napalm Death and Primitive Man). Overall, Doug Miller books is a must stop for any reader out book hunting. The selection was fantastic, the store was cozy, and the staff was fantastic. I'll definitely be back in the future!

It has more of a bibliophilic staff and atmosphere than the big chains, since books are their only business. They've got a better loyalty card deal than Chapters/Indigo, and if you sign up they even send you a $5 gift certificate on your birthday. Book City also has good deals on remainders (something which also used to be true of Chapters, but not as much lately).

The guy working the counter is super chill and welcoming, which instantly sets a great vibe the second you walk in. Honestly, the selection is insane.. they have a ton of brand-new books for basically a fraction of the regular price, so you always end up walking out with some incredible, unexpected finds. It's easily one of my favorite places to slow down and just browse whenever I'm in the area.
