The cutest little children's bookstore!…read more I grew up coming here as a kid so it was heartening to see that it was still alive and active l when I brought my LO! The store is well thought out and very inviting to adults and children alike! There is a great selection of books for kids and adults, book merch, and so much more~! Everyone was incredibly kind here and the service was lovely. The book selection and the reachability for my LO was perfect for him in the younger kids book area. Everything is priced as marked. Come support your local indie bookstore!!! Parking was easy to find around the area! I street parked for free.

This is my favorite spot in Redlands. Whenever I feel blue, I go for some kitty time. It's $20 for…read morean hour, which I'm good with paying every once in a while. There's usually always one or two kitties in the mood for either playing or being pet. You get kinda attached to some of them, but they're also up for adoption so they might not be there the next time you go. They do have some resident kitties though - Sugar is very sweet and not up for adoption. She'll always let you pet her. Staff is kind and will answer any questions about the kitties. I always ask if there's a lot of children or too many people when I go, and they'll let me know if there's too many. I just want to relax with the kitties and my book and it can be a bit noisy and distracting when it's a bit full. I'll usually go to Cafe Caprice around the corner for an hour and then come back for quieter kitty time. They also have cute local art up for sale around where you play with the kitties and it's nice to look at. I usually just grab a soda when I go there as I've already had my tea/coffee for the day, but would love it if they got their beer and wine license. I would totes have multiple glasses of wine whilst chilling with the kitties if they did that (the cat cafe I frequented in Charlotte had it). Overall, fun place to pet some kitties and get away from your problems for a bit.

We did the 1hr experience and all of the cats were very friendly and loving. The hour was filled with lots of love, snuggles, pets and relaxation. I wish I could take them all home with me!

It is so cute and artistic, the smell alone walking in had my book heart SOARING. The prices were so reasonable, the woman working the front desk (wish I remembered her name) was kind and helpful. She also let us know we could bring books to sell for $1 each or we could use it as store credit! If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping in for a great book and great company.

Cool independent bookstore in downtown. They've extended and renovated since my last visit here…read more The front shop has more items besides books, children's reading area and lounge spot to start or continue reading a book.

Staff are wonderful as always very patient and kind hearted. Great deals to be found.

Had high hopes for this bookstore. Especially since it was…read moreremodelled and new ownership if I'm not mistaken. Staff was not welcoming at all. Atleast the older gentleman that was there. Children's section was small and don't have any classic books. Everything was so political and liberal. (Not just books for gifts) Which doesn't fit a bookstore. Wish they could have just focused on books and had a great section for children with seating and all. This was more of a "doing it for the 'gram" type of store

But on my latest shopping stop here, the store really failed in supporting good hygiene. Three soap dispensers out of four had no soap in them in the restrooms, and the men's restroom had no papter towels on hand, plus the air dryer on the wall there did not work. Customers have a right to expect more than this.

Upon entering, I realized the shop was much larger than I had expected. Looks like it may have been 2 shops merged into one at some point. There's a large connected room with a massive Anime books and poster collection. Lots of fun and unique finds. The man at the cashier was friendly and helpful. We left with just a couple small figures but would love to spend more time looking over the variety of books and collectibles. Any shop that includes Hip Hop has my vote!

First time at A Shop Called Quest and honestly, first time in any comic book store, so we walked in…read morelike newborn deer on wobbly legs. We got a quick greeting at the door and then were left to fend for ourselves in the Marvel wilderness. The store is super organized and visually on point. My son made a beeline for the Spider‑Man section like it was calling his name. My daughter, who has zero interest in comics, appreciated that they also sell books, tees, Funko Pops, and other merch so she didn't have to pretend to care about Peter Parker's problems. Checkout was smooth, and the cashier immediately pitched their membership program. Totally fine, it's a one‑time fee, not a monthly situation but we're just not ready to invest in that level of comic commitment yet. Prices were reasonable: about seven bucks for most issues and one $35 comic my son proudly bought with his own money. I let him live his best life. The plot twist came a week later when he sat down to read everything... and realized he accidentally bought three copies of the same comic because the covers were different. Variant covers: 1. Newbies: 0. A tiny heads‑up from the cashier would've saved us from the accidental collector's edition starter pack. All that said, the store is clean, cool, and has the exact comic‑shop vibe you expect. We'll definitely be back, just with a little more research and maybe a checklist so we don't accidentally buy the trilogy of the same issue again. Great spot overall, just not the most newbie‑friendly. But we'll return, now slightly wiser and definitely more cautious around pretty cover art.

Hard pass! NEVER EVER will I donate to this location ever again!!! RUDE MANAGEMENT! Omg!!!…read more It is close to my house, so I have gone here several times out of convenience, and EVERY TIME the management is just downright rude. She acts like she is doing me a HUGE favor by taking my donations. The main lady, that runs the place, is absolutely unkind. She goes through each bag of donation- item by item, and decides which items are worthy enough for donation. Mostly she turns away a ton of things that she deems are not good enough or I guess against their policies-whatever!? Don't come here if you have the slightest bit of sentimental attachment to things you are giving away, because there's no thanks at all, no smiles, no casual pleasantries, no gratitude for what you are giving away. Nada-just cold rudeness. You have to ask for a receipt and then she's really bothered about the effort that takes to give you one. The store is super small and it looks like it's been professionally picked over of anything worth purchasing. Such a shame. I will never ever donate another thing to this location of Goodwill on Palm and Cajon Street in Redlands. Wish I could give ZERO STARS. Whenever I come here to give, I leave with negative feelings about my experience. Yeah no thanks-don't need that. What crappy management. Do better, Goodwill.
