When I tell you this bookstore is absolutely beautiful and eclectic, I truly mean it. From floor to…read moreceiling, the shelves are packed with books ranging from vintage finds and timeless classics to newer reads, making it feel like there is something here for every kind of reader. They also carry stunning leather bound books along with drawing supplies for the artists and creatives out there. Wandering through this bookstore felt like stepping into a magical little world that I genuinely did not want to leave. Even though we stopped in close to closing time, the owner never once made us feel rushed or like an inconvenience. She was incredibly welcoming, kind, and happy to have us there. This is exactly the kind of local shop I will happily return to again and again, not just to continue exploring the endless stacks of books, but to support and see the wonderful people who run it as well.

Great bookstore to poke around! It's dog friendly so we were able to bring our well behaved girl in…read morewith us to enjoy the AC for a bit. They have a huge selection, I'd say leaning heavily towards fiction, and everything is nicely organized. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful and chatty. The prices seemed very fair to me. They had a mix of new and used book.

It pains me to leave a meh review because I love bookstores. Such a cool concept but needs better…read moreexecution. The store is difficult to find especially if you're not familiar with the area - in an alley with street parking. There's a small sign on the street pointing to the bookstore but it's hard to see especially in bad weather. I'm from out of state and love the romantasy book store idea but it wasn't worth it. The store itself is tiny. The merch is overpriced - $4 each for tiny stickers. Small selection of merch. I would have loved to see more book merch and less store branded merch (book related shirts and not store branded). Loved the hand painted ornaments at the register by a local artist. Purchased the Kindle Blind Bundle for $15 and I feel totally ripped off. It was 5 stickers and a kindle charm that plugs into the charging port. The stickers are out of season - autumn stickers in December and one of them is a branded sticker for the bookstore. The TikTok shop sticker isn't relative to books and I've never purchase anything there - I could have gotten a better sticker set on Temu for less. The kindle charm plugs into the USB port which runs the risk of damaging your kindle and can be easily lost when taking it out to charge the kindle. It looks very fragile and it could break easily. I'm not damaging my kindle because of a $15 mistake. I absolutely won't use any of these so a total waste of money. The store has potential but a bummer.

I found this bookstore to be incredibly cool. It's definitely its own niche and me as a non…read moreunderstander of said niche, I highly recommend you look at their website. It was painted black and had such a cool vibe. The ladies working there were very nice. It was quite busy actually and people were saying great things about it. As far as value, I believe for books- it was right on target. Prices seamed to be where they should. My friend's daughter found really cool stickers and was really into the items they had.

With a million titles to choose from as well as toys, antiques and coffee, this unique spot is a place to get lost in for a minute or an hour. The staff is very willing to help and kind.

I loved the store from the moment I walked in, with the quirky ceiling and stacks of old books. There are two floors of books with scattered vintage items here and there. Downstairs, I found the coffee and pastries. I picked up a Raspberry Crisp to take home. All the cookies looked yummy. Upstairs, there are children's books in a section and then other adult books. I could have spent hours browsing. The staff as welcoming and friendly. There is plenty of parking in the little strip mall. This is a fun, independently-owned, place for a book lover to come on a rainy (or sunny) day.

He looks through my box for about 5 seconds while preoccupied on the phone, probably looks at about 3 actual comics and then goes back to his phone call. He then decides to ring up the person behind me while I'm still waiting. Guy behind me spends $40 some bucks on comics and the cashier can't be bothered to put the phone down and even speak to him! Guy finally gets off the phone and tells me that all my comics are stuff he'd see in a dollar bin & if I can get 5 cents a piece for them take it. Wow what a waste of my time! Will not be coming back to this store

A hidden gem! The store is absolutely adorable and has a little bit of everything! From cute…read moreclothing, Vera Bradley items, and books, to children's toys, and so many fun knickknacks and oddities. We found things like dinosaur chopsticks for our kiddos and trivia cards that you don't see everywhere, which made browsing so much fun. As a book lover, I loved their book rewards program! Buy 3 regular-priced books and get the 4th 50% off! Even better, the rewards card is designed like a bookmark with an old-fashioned library checkout card on the back, which is such a charming and thoughtful touch. What truly made this place stand out, though, was the kindness of the staff and owner. My husband uses a wheelchair, and the owner was incredibly accommodating, even offering to open the store an hour early the next morning so we could shop before it became crowded and more difficult for him to navigate. That level of compassion and customer service is rare and meant so much to our family. If you're visiting Topsail, Bumblebee Market is definitely worth a stop. It's the kind of place where you can find the perfect gift, a great book, and leave feeling genuinely cared for. We will absolutely be back!

I like Pokemon 151 and got taught the other series I never opened that I wanted to buy but wanted certain characters. I even bought very low cost cards as I collect Lorcana and requested(if they could) to penny sleeve them all instead of putting them together in a pack and told them I'd pay extra. They accommodated me and only charged another 5$ which I expected it to be a lot more. I also love it as my S/O never felt harassed or looked down upon by being a female they were so excited to share stories and help find items and just loving the genre and hobby. I usually hate leaving their side because of harassment but I felt comfortable exploring while they have a good time talking and laughing to the employees! Also big thank you to the gentleman that had pony tail and glasses you were the one that answered the phone and helped us. I think Jeremy? You were super helpful and friendly so thank you!
