LOVE coming here and always my first stop in Jamestown and first recommendation to anyone when they…read moresay they will be in the area. Where else can you sip wine and tea while browsing a curated selection of great books and gifts? It's pretty much the perfect store. Everyone who works here is also super nice and very willing to lend a hand with recommendations or information on their inventory, wines, and more. I have found that the customer experience is really what sets Curiosity apart, and is primarily what has kept me coming back since they opened about five years ago. In addition to books and beverages, they also hold classes, book discussions, art events, trivia nights on their patio, and more. A visit to Curiosity is a must when in Jamestown!

This quaint Jamestown bookstore is unique in itself because not only are you greeted with a bright…read moreselection of books, but also a cute little wine bar. You'd be surprised to find out that they also have an upstairs area where you can enjoy wine tasting classes with a local Sommelier! There are different events every other Friday night and you can even book a private event! We ordered personal charcuterie boards during our private event. They were tasty but mostly of different cheeses (only two meats). The wine selection our sommelier picked out was delicious! I do wish they had more of a variety of wines on their menu to purchase by the bottle. Half of the wines on our tasting weren't available to purchase that night which was kind of a bummer. I definitely would have loved a bottle of the moscato but it was no longer available. All in all, I would love to go back and even take my husband to one of their Friday wine tastings!

This bookstore is a joy to browse. It is an uncommon used bookstore in that it has a great…read moreselection and it is not dusty, musty, or dirty like many are--their aisles and shelves are very clean and they seemed to have air filters running when I was first there (may have just been AC?). My allergies weren't bothered by sorting through books for an hour, like they usually are at other used bookstores. Their inventory is more non-fiction heavy, though they have a very nice fiction/literature room. The selection of historical non-fiction is fantastic, and I particularly had fun finding books on folklore and mythology from various parts of the world. They also have a large selection of cookbooks and art books. A very high number of "special" books in every section, when usually you have to search for just a few. The person curating the selection knows what he/she is doing. The owner or worker who was there during our last visit was not obtrusive and made us feel very comfortable browsing, even though my partner managed to accidentally knock down a display book.

The vibe of this place is so quaint and cute. Feels old and has history. Huge selection of books,…read moreprints, and more. I bought an antique postcard of a local mansion and love it. Was a rainy day so perfect for book hunting. The owner was sweet. The style was perfect for the area and priced well too.
