Great little indie bookstore. Small but mighty, located in quaint downtown McMinnville. Third…read moreStreet Books is well curated and they have a lot of insightful handwritten staff recommendations placed by selected books, which is something we really appreciate about a good indie. We got a fascinating nonfiction book on the unseen world of plant intelligence for our botany fan, that we may not have otherwise picked up, thanks to a staff recommendation.

I absolutely love this little bookstore right in the middle of the iconic Third Street…read more This has been my go-to bookstore for the last year and a half and they have always had what I am looking for - or will order it and get it in quickly for pickup. I never feel like I am overpaying for a book, which I often do at other smaller book retailers. The value is great, the service is always friendly, and I am always so excited for my next visit.

One tip: if there's a title you like check the prices on ALL copies. One book I initially set down…read morebecause the paperback was $20, but checked the hardcover out of curiosity and found it was used (didn't look it) and only cost $13! So you never know. If you're a book lover plan to spend a whole day here, or at least half. The place is obviously massive, but surprisingly well organized and mapped; there are lots of signs making it easy to find what you are looking for. Easily our favorite was the gold room which contained mystery, horror, comics and manga, as well as romance. There are computers around where you can search for specific titles, and staff is helpful with recommendations as well. In terms of the pricing, there are excellent used books. I got a copy that I would have sworn was brand new for $10 off the listed price.

This brand new bookstore just opened. I was curious, so I checked it out…read more It's all bright and clean and new. The workers seemed friendly and there were quite a few other customers there, within an hour of opening. But it never seemed crowded and remained pretty quiet. Here and there they have chairs and tables, so it could be a nice place to sit down with a book for a while. The rows are not straight, so it was a little hard to navigate the store. There were lots of books, but also lots of other things on sale. Puzzles, toys, records, pop culture gifts, and stationary/journals. They had a whole Harry Potter section with the books, of course, but lots of other Potter paraphernalia, like toys, mugs, etc. The signage over some of the sections was missing letters, I think whatever adhesive they used to affix the letters had issues with the curving surface of the book shelves. This store also had lots of events with authors on their event calendar. The cafe seemed like it had the regular snacks and beverages on offer, but I didn't look too hard at the menu. I don't really buy books much anymore (recovering book hoarder here), but this seems like a good addition to the bookstores in the area. I was a little surprised to hear of a new corporate bookstore opening up, but I see they are covering their bases a bit by selling tons of other gifts (and food) along with books. I bet this place will be packed leading up to the holidays!

Although I am fanatical about giving my trade to independent bookstores, I have regularly purchased…read morehere. It fills a niche in the book market. If a hot book hits the market, the holds at the library will stack up six deep and you have to wait a year to borrow a copy. Also, the library is no longer a reference library, and if you want a classic out of the past, you can find it here. New books are expensive, but that is not this firm's fault. I enjoy getting a coffee and reading my purchase before I leave. The bathrooms need a code for access but employees have been gracious in giving it to me and indeed the behavior of all the employees has been impeccable. I invariably leave in an enhanced mood.

This is a space in the community I will happily be frequenting when I need a space to work, a cozy spot to read, or want to show friends from out of town a wonderful third space that is welcoming of all.

Charming building with wonderful upper windows and open space. Love that there are table to sit down even though we were getting it to go. Two of my friends are pretty much purest just drip or an americano. I had a chai and my other friend has a matcha. The Chai was a little sweet for my taste but was still good. The staff was very friendly and helpful answered my friend's questions about one of the roasts so they're well informed about the coffee they serve definitely would visit again.
