A great bookshop with good coffee and a relaxing seating area. I got a hot chocolate and it rates right up there with some of the best.

The coffee was good, and though their literary ideological spectrum is very limited, most of the books offered are of quality.

Great place to have a coffee and read a book. Really comfortable and quiet. Good coffee by the way.

BookPeople is awesome! I love stopping by anytime I'm near Moscow/Pullman…read more The store is filled with great options, a fabulous kids section, and awesome sticker/pin collections. The salespeople are really friendly, helpful, and genuinely seem like they enjoy their job. They'll discuss the book you're purchasing with you, and happily make more recommendations. Parking is really easy to come across in the Downtown area of Moscow, and independent bookstores are ALWAYS worth supporting. Check 'em out! :)

I specifically came in to purchase from a local business, but after my interaction with the…read moreemployees behind the register, I am ordering from Amazon. I knew the author and title and walked up to the register to ask where I might find it, but the two employees were engaged in conversation and didn't even acknowledge my presence for at least 3 minutes. When the red-headed female employee did finally acknowledge me, it was with an irritated smirk, as if I was disturbing them. This dismissive and disrespectful behavior was repeated several times before I decided to leave. I have over 30 years experience in business ownership and retail management and this is absolutely no way to treat prospective customers. You should never make a customer wait without being acknowledged while you engage in conversation with another employee or are looking down at the register. When you do engage with a customer, you should be welcoming, friendly and polite. I see from prior reviews that I am not the only one to have experienced this kind of behavior and don't know how they've stayed in business so long with such rude employees. There are no return visits here in my future.
