Gone are the tattered towers and trifling tchotchkes, now transformed into a perusable print palace focused on rare/antique offerings. Apparently the owner was formerly with an extremely well-known auction house, and he possesses a vast wealth of knowledge on the subject matter.

When I came in one of their local book clubs was running - it was so fun to listen in on the conversations and community. During this visit I found a great graduation gift and one of the booksellers helped connect me to some upcoming events related to some recent reads and interests I shared. They have an expansive section for spanish speakers and the large used books shelf highlights their commitment to bringing books to members of the community. I was delighted I ended up spending more time in the store than I planned to. This is a great spot if you're looking for a book, a gift for a book lover or want to get involved in your community!

Hudson Valley Books is a very popular location within Ossining. This bookstore offers educational…read morelessons, live music, book signings, vinyl records, and plenty more. The staff is very friendly and more than willing to assist. During the short time that we visited, I saw a walking tour explaining the history of the bookstore/area and a few people discussing the topic of the day. I enjoyed perusing old editions of Life magazine and enjoyed the plenty of seating that was available. If you're ever in Ossining, don't hesitate to stop into Hudson Valley Books. I'm sure, that you'll find something worth purchasing.

I ended up leaving with three books: two for me, both from Irish authors I'd never heard of that I'm absolutely loving so far, and one for a friend's sick two year old and her daughter LOVED it - it was a really cool book about the seasons that opened into a globe and had great illustrations. In short, I found some really special books at this really special store! It's in a great location with lots of parking but is also right by the aqueduct trail if you like to walk aka I walked there haha. Shop local : )

What's not to love? This is a PHYSICAL bookstore. Please support it as one of the now few…read morebookstores (due to amazon). I've been visiting this business for years. Over that 10+ year time span, I cannot think of one complaint about this store. It's located in White Plains' City Center, on the first floor, next to Nordstrom Rack. Thus, they have a very large parking lot but like most garages, you do pay a small fee for your parking. If on foot, they also have a second entrance - A door on Main Street. I've often jumped out of the car while a friend parks, because of that door. They have a fantastic variety and stock of books. They have tons of magazines. There is a section that is well organized and full of discounted books. They also have quite a large area for children's books. The store is very well organized and maintained so their books are where they belong and the appearance is a tidy one. They also have a sectioned off area dedicated to all things music, although I have not shopped there. I also have only positive things to say about the staff and their helpfulness. They have a particularly nice cafe area. They serve all of Starbucks' drinks and coffee (i.e. lattes, frappuccinos, etc.). Yet, they don't sell Starbucks snacks and it isn't an actual Starbucks. They sell slices from The Cheesecake Factory and also an array of other baked goods. I love their lemon bars and rustic apple tarts. Because the cafe is part of Barnes and Noble, you can get your order discounted if you are a member of the store. I often meet a friend here, for coffee. It is rare to find the tables all in use. It's a way more laid back, and easily accessible, cafe, than is Starbucks. The barista/workers are always friendly and aren't doing things a mile a minute like at Starbucks. The cafe also sell ground bags of coffee, nice teas, Godiva chocolate, current and nice looking water bottles, such as those by Swell. There is a section of the store, next to the cafe, that is full of, for lack of a better word, accessories. It has a good amount of gift items (and items for yourself). It has journals and phone decorative pieces. They also have unique and pretty pens, pencase holders, laptop related items, just to name a few. During the holidays, this is where they have many festive items here. Please come! Shop! Let's not lose another bookstore!

He is unaware of his surroundings and usually requires to be called over to receive any attention. But the worst part is that he never lets us split the check. He claims that because me and my group only ordered "one entree" that it is not possible to split the check. But with other waiters, we have been able to split the check. So if you attend the restaurant, be prepared for great food but beware of splitting the check if the tall man is your waiter.
