The real gem of this place is the basement which is home to vintage books at killer prices. There are books wall to wall on everything you can imagine- art & culture and history and ancient medicine. I purchased a book about interpreting dreams for $1.99, a book about giving a toast for $4.99 and a book of dog stickers for 60 cents! The staff was friendly and let us browse the aisles to our hearts content. There is a bathroom inside but you need to ask for a key to use it. A "bonus" of this place is it is located to a handy map of the downtown area and neat photo ops like the red London Telephone booth at the end of the block. Masks are required inside the store and staff wore masks as well.

I took one star off, due to how warm they keep the store. Every-time I go here I get overheated no matter what I'm wearing. Besides that issue I have no complaints.
