What a wonderful little bookstore- very well curated!…read more We were visiting from Vancouver and stumbled across this gem. It's feels like it's in an old house. The staff are relaxed, in letting people browse and look at the cat. We took my son there after a terrible experience at Meow Cafe down the street. We were able to interact with Mabel the lovely tabby cat and we bought two great books plus a sticker book that was recommended by the staff and we love. They also have excellent stickers books. Well worth going to with your little one! Hopefully this bookstore will be here in the future as we will certainly be putting it on our next visit list! Well done Mabel!

The price point is kind of all over the place, but given all of the goodness they've packed in the shelves, it makes sense. Beyond books, they also have a few gifty knick knacks for the adorkable pals in your life (think Shakespeare stuffed toys, etc).

This location has a similar layout to the one at Square One but a lot larger bigger and floors are reversed of each other.

Came by on a wandering walk and boy, am I glad that I did!…read more Zoinks is one of those perfect neighbourhood bookstores. Well loved, broken in, never leaving. There's a great selection of well taken care of books for an affordable cost. Peep the opening jacket to see the price drawn on in pencil. I walked away with two awesome books for the price of one. First, Drunk Mom by Jowita Bydlowska and secondly, The Best Kind of People by Zoe Whittall. Just a ways away is Christie Pitts Park, meaning you can buy a book, grab some Tacos Al Asador and read and in eat in the calm of The Pitts. The music selection is a little smaller and the shop feels mostly AAB (all about books), but you'll no doubt be able to find something to love.

This is the greatest used book store I have ever been in, in my life. This is actually more of an…read moreattraction than a store. The owner has created a scavenger hunt you can pick up at the front, and complete as you walk through the store.

It's absolutely worth taking the subway down just to pop your head in and look around. It's a shame that this store isn't better known, because it truly is an attraction!

It's such a worthwhile trip!

It's impossible for me to go into this bookstore without wanting to buy almost everything I see…read more The collection of artist books, zines, prints, exhibited works, etc. is wonderful and you'd be hard pressed finding a lot of their stock anywhere else. They're quite close to Queen St. so if you happen to be out shopping or wandering aimlessly in that area, it's only a short walk to get to and it's definitely worth it.

There's so much selection and if they don't have something, they will try their best to get it for you.
