This is a great set up. Order online, drive over to Bull Moose give them a call and you have curbside pick up.

I am a total bookaholic and this is place helps me get my fill. The new books are very well priced compared to other book stores. So many used books as well that you can score for great prices, or sometimes you can get lucky with the .50 cent bins. On my last stop I was able to get 3 books from the .50 cent bin that were actually on my reading list. The staff is so friendly (I bothered one of the employees 3 times to ask questions and she was super kind!). Overall a wonderful place!

Bull Moose Music Warehouse in Scarborough is still my favorite music store in the State of Maine! I make the trip to this location quite often from Southern NH, even though there are two decent Bull Moose locations in NH (Portsmouth & Salem) much closer to me without the sales tax. This superstore carries a huge selection of used CDs plus new CDs, movies, video games, accessories, and a good book section of used and new books, 35 percent off cover price. Also, they have a good selection of used bargain books, some books are only 50 cents each. The prices here for the used CDs and movies are really good and I can usually spend under $10, sometimes under $5 for each title. Each time I visit this store, I can spend at least a good hour here looking through the massive stock and finding some great deals on used music, movies, and books, some hard to find titles found here. The staff here is friendly and I can usually browse the store in peace. Periodically, an employee would ask me if I need any help finding a particular item.

Yesss!!

Bull Moose is amazing! I love them. I will always go to Bull Moose before ever ordering something online. This location has evolved over the years to include not only used movies, cds and games but also books. I ALWAYS look for my books here first. There is usually a used copy of anything that you are looking for. It's also great if you have little kids in your life, they have a HUGE amount of used kids books you may not be able to find anywhere else. When I need something new like the new Wonder Woman film or Greatest Showman film Bull Moose celebrates this and usually the staff is as excited as you are to to release the newest film. I have found myself here more than once excited to get something new and finding a few other things I never knew existed at this store.

200 cds for 30 dollars!! What?

This Bull Moose location rocks!! I have always been a loyal fan of the Brunswick location since the beginning! Although I feel a change in the force at this point in time. For the most part they have everything you need, everything you want, and some! As far as music, movies, video games, and literature goes! If you walk out of here empty handed you have either not looked hard enough or you were never intending to ever part with your money in the first place. The staff is a little quirky, but hey you're at Bull Moose, what do you expect? The staff here is willing to help with any obscure request! They will look until they find what you desire or, if by chance your request is impossible in the moment, they will surely give you hope. By pointing you in the correct direction. Hope you stop by and enjoy yourself as much as I do every time I am here!

Great name.

Books music and fun Bull Moose Music has been around since 1995 and has about a dozen stores scattered throughout Maine and New Hampshire. Many stores like this seem to be going extinct but Bull Moose seems to be thriving and one of the employees there told be that the company was planning on adding new stores. The reason they are doing so good is simple, it's a fun and very cool place. Lots of new books at great discounts and even some used books that are dirt cheap. We actually stopped in here for some maps but of course they didn't have them because maps have become virtually impossible to find but we did have a great time looking at the huge and varied section of books, DVDs and music they offer. Not just best sellers but all kinds of stuff including a great offering of graphic novels and travel books. They also have video games and some weird and cool toys in various places around the store. The staff here were great, friendly and cool. The young lady actually sounded so disappointed that she couldn't find any of the maps that I wanted and was looked so sincere and sad when she said that it was a national tragedy that real maps are so difficult to find. Perhaps not quite a national tragedy but it is unfortunately that new maps aren't being published anymore. A great store that is difficult not to love. A very cool, totally non pretentious place that offers so many fun things at great prices and genuinely friendly staff. No matter how much technology changes there will always be a place for a store like this.

I wanted to watch my holiday favorites. Thanks Bullmoose!

I think, if you're going to come to a chain bookstore, this should be the place you visit. It's so…read morenew; it's got that new book smell (not really, but... maybe, kinda, sorta?)! 1. So much easy, free parking in their huge shared lot. 2. There's a Starbucks-adjacent cafe. NOTE: it's NOT actually Starbucks though, so you can't order ahead or pay with your app. Just a heads-up! The cafe portion of the bookstore is spacious and clean, with the tables themselves also being spaced quite far apart from one another. It creates a real sense of privacy no matter where you sit! 3. The atmosphere/layout here is very modern and inviting; the selection itself is enormous. Genres are clearly labeled, and there's a tremendous amount of content available no matter what you're looking for (so be prepared to spend some time here wandering around and taking it all in... then you'll probably have to come back, because there's no way you'll actually be able to take it all in on the first visit!). They've got new releases, popular books, recommendations, board games, and more. And, of course, the random armchair for you to sit and peruse your possible purchase. Obviously, support local first. But if you're looking for a slow-paced, wide open, very quiet, very tidy spot to spend a little bit of time (without feeling rushed or forced to purchase something) finding your next favorite read, I'd suggest visiting here!

This is a newer location, and it's absolutely stunning! Nice lighting, open concept, beautiful cafe.read more

Due to her reaching half-way to her yearly goal of books read for 2026 so quickly I wanted to treat her to grabbing a couple books at a new to us bookstore. Scanning around our general area this one stuck out as one to check out. Due to its location parking is no problem which was a great plus. Stepping inside will transport any reader into a sense of literary paradise. They have the popular/trending books like you'd expect, all the classics, and everything in between. Including a large well stocked used book section with extremely well priced books. This was a section my wife could have spent so much more time browsing but ended up selecting 5 books from this section. Which if you bought 3 used books you'd get a fourth free which they were already well-priced. Once she made all her final selections we checked out and signed up for their free savings membership. The staff were extremely friendly and we had a great conversation with them. The type of interaction that makes you want to return to a place! Worth your time to visit for those who love reading or those looking to buy gifts for those who love reading!

This morning, my wife and I finally planned to go check out their space for the first time. What more could you truly ask for than a cafe/coffee shop meets bookstore meets beer bar! My wife is more of an avid reader than I am so she enjoyed the book aspect more. They have a large menu of offerings drink wise with everything you'd expect from a coffee shop. I do wish they did a rotating seasonal special drink menu, as places usually have one or more great sounding drinks on those. Both my wife and I settled on an iced blueberry latte. Overall it had hints of blueberry and tasted more like milk than anything. Would not be rushing back for it specifically that's for sure. Food wise they have some in-house baked goods as well as bagels from Rose Foods and corssiants from Little Spruce Baking. My wife got a plain bagel with cream cheese while I grabbed a chocolate croissant. I did mess up by not requesting it be warmed up but it was still delicious! Will be finding more spots that have goodies from Little Spruce. The bagel was also tasty. Book wise my wife enjoyed browsing but did not find any books she needed to grab. She did enjoy reading a couple chapters of her current book while we sat by the large windows (good spot for world watching outside). We enjoyed our visit but have other spots we would be happier to visit again.

Love that they have local brews on tap + a good selection of books. The set up a few seats outside when it's nice out! Good cold brew, iced tea, chai, and matcha. Bagels from Rose Foods (aka delish).

You might have a little reading or writing nook in your home. Maybe grandma's secretary and a few…read morequill pens, some tchotchkes or knickknacks from the antique store on display, or maybe even a couple of those wooden shelves with the glass partition. Well, this entire place is like a showroom of that paradise. I wanted to touch and play with everything. I adore places like this! By no means am I (yet) an antiquarian book collector; I've watched some YouTube videos and have been advised that once you start collecting, there's no end. I also can't read, so that isn't very helpful. I spent a fair amount of time perusing the shelves for a book I might buy, paying closer attention to the old hardbound volumes with decorative covers. There are many of them, but not all of them desirable. Behind the counter and hidden away is the good stuff you probably can't afford. I did walk away with a few inexpensive items, positive I would come back, not least thanks to chatting with Cathy, one of the owners, at the counter. What could have been a simple 5-second exchange, turned into a glorious reverie that I would gladly make a journey for, to have the pleasure of again.

This is a gorgeous bookstore. The selection is immense and well organized (and the place smells…read moreamazing!) Cathy was knowledgeable, helpful, and a pleasure to speak with. Being from out of town, I was pleased with the prices. I can't find such deals at home. I was delighted to find a 9 book boxed set of my childhood favorite for $20. The set was in great condition, and though not all would consider the series a treasure, my third grade self was giddy. I wish we lived closer. I may have to buy an extra suitcase and return before we head home. Thank you, Carlson and Turner!
