There is a bald and short man who spends hours in Starbucks every evening until the store is closing. He often takes magazines and books from Indigo without paying. Not sure if Indigo staff realize that or not. The last time I saw him doing this was on July 27, 2023 around 6 to 7 pm. Indigo may need to review recorded surveillance camera footage and transaction record during that time.

The Book Wardrobe is a small independent bookstore located in a historical building in…read moreStreetsville. On entering the building, follow a beautifully carved wood railing, up to the 2nd floor. The bookstore fills a studio with an assortment of thoughtfully displayed books and tasteful gifts. They have a cute kids section too. What a gem of a place to pick up a wonderful book for yourself or a special person! The owner was friendly and excited to offer book recommendations. They have a small curated stock but also take book orders for pick up. She mentioned since covid, there is sometimes a shipping delay. I appreciate how honest and upfront she was about orders. Street parking is metered but the small side streets are not.

There is a Tea Room on the first floor along with a couple other shops. There isn't a ton of books readily available but reasonable for the boutiqueness of it. I was looking for a particular book for my niece for Christmas and much to my dismay I was unable to locate it at any of the big box stores. So after doing a quick Google search I found this book boutique. I inquired via email to see if they had it and they were able to order it for me- no payment down might I add. Fantastic! I picked up my book (no extra charge!) And made a little girl very happy! From what I was told they've only been there since Sep 2017, and I certain hope they stick around! As a book lover, especially actual books not screens, 5/5!

You owe yourself the favour and go hang out at The Book Shelf for a while.

I was horrified to hear the staff berating a woman who had her mask down in the store. The ignorant staffer asked if she had a virology degree and insisted that a cloth mask was mandatory even though the woman had put it back up. Even Fauci at this point has said cloth masks don't stop the spread of this virus. It's disturbing that staff can be belligerent to customers as mandates are about to be dropped literally tomorrow. Never will I shop here again.

You will see a few, but you definitely won't find this shop piled sky-high with Danielle Steel and John Grisham titles.

(They should add that as a subheading underneath the shop sign) :P

The staff is very knowledgeable, helpful and you will truly be amazed on what you find. I have shopped here twice now and both times I have walked away with hard to find books in excellent if not new condition and will treasure them now that they are found. I never see the same books in the same spot. Always something new appearing everywhere. I just love this place when I am feeling down. The customers are incredible as well. Met a new one today and walked out feeling like the world was so much brighter. Thank you The Brantford Bookworm.

The vibe of the cafe was cool, it was decorated with various items throughout. Plus, there was an area where you can read and/or buy books. I ordered a matcha latte and my partner picked a muffin. We got a seat by the window at the back, so that we can cool down and look at the beautiful view. The food was yummy and we enjoyed relaxing there. It felt like we were sitting at someone's home, it felt cozy and fun. Drop by here when you visit Paris, you'll love it!
