They haven't had their grand opening yet, so they still…read moresetting up, getting signage placed, etc. Most notably, the staff was extremely friendly and excited to be open. That will serve them well. They are brewing Starbucks, so it's the closest outlet to Cloverdale, I believe. They have a lot of space dedicated to Huntington apparel and gifts. They could really class the place up with Auburn gear. (Kidding- They are owned by Huntington University). They have a drive-through, a reading nook, etc. It's a fully restored cottage in the historic district. Very bright and clean. I'll be back!

I visited for the first time today and was absolutely blown away. From the design of the store to the location, there is so much to love about 1977 books. I've ordered from them online once before, so it was nice to see the shop in real life. I didn't get a chance to take photos of the shop (I was too busy browsing all of the books), but I managed to get a book that had been on my wish list for a while + a cute conversation deck that I plan on using with my loved ones. The volunteer who checked me out was also very kind and wore a mask. Come check it out!

When Phil opened this store in Montgomery in 2010(?), I was so happy. I'd moved here from Florida…read morein 2008 and was from San Francisco.

Horrible customer service -- complete waste of my time. I…read morecame all the way out of town because I was actually excited to visit this shop and support the business. I even called ahead of time just to make sure what time they closed before making the trip. When my boyfriend and I arrived, I walked around and saw several things I was interested in and wanted to ask about, including the teas and Krystal's. One employee was standing and talking with someone away from the counter, so I waited for an opportunity to get some assistance. There was someone sitting in the chair at the front counter, and my boyfriend and I both said "Excuse me" to get their attention. Instead of acknowledging us or offering any help, they continued their conversation. At that point, we simply walked right out. I came prepared to spend my money and support this business, and instead I was completely ignored. Why call ahead, drive all the way out there, and waste my time just to be treated like I wasn't even there? Customer service matters. I'll gladly take my business somewhere that actually appreciates customers. I will not be coming back.

I was excited to check out this store after reading all the great reviews. I travel for a living…read moreand try to visit a record store in every city I visit. Unfortunately, though the hours were listed as 11am-7pm on Saturdays, no one bothered to open the shop at 11. I had spent $20 on an Uber there so I waited. No one ever bothered to show up to open the store. I finally gave up at 11:30 and got another $20 Uber back to my hotel. Very disappointing since it had such great reviews and looking through the window, I have no doubt they had a nice selection. It is just a shame that nobody opened the store at the time they said they opened.

His grading is spot on and his cleaning process is the best I've seen. I always clean mine using a 2 step setup with an ultrasonic and custom cleaning solution but not these, they are perfect!
