A happy place for bookworms! Take a beautiful Victorian home and turn it into a bookstore; magic!…read moreThis bookstore is charming, enchanting and filled with wonder. Books have always been a happy escape for me. Now that I read my books on my iPad, I had started to forget how wonderful it feels to hold a real book in your hands. I think it's time to return to the beginning, head back in time and pick up a book to read; a real solid paper book. Sometimes change isn't always a good thing. This sweet little store reminded me of days gone by. When you walk in, the room on the left is for the little ones. Straight ahead is the desk where you checkout and to the right is for young teens or young at heart. In the back areas are adult books. A very nice selection of most genres. So put down that iPad and go buy yourself a book! A book that you can touch. However you like your books, take time to read. Lose yourself for awhile and let your imagination carry you along. Bookstores; one of my favorite places on earth!

I love it that I can pick up a big and literally stand there for like 30 mins browsing at it and they won't bother you. I also love the cafe! They make really good Starbucks coffee and have really good food! I love all the food they have here especially the desserts! My favorite are their cookies and cheesecake! I also love their quiche too! It's seriously the best! Only downfall for this location is that it's not affiliated with actual Starbucks so you can't use your Starbucks card. PS: they need to bring back their tiramisu! It was the best tiramisu I've ever had in my life and I've travel the world for good tiramisu lol

This is an odd duck in terms of gift stores. Apparently there are a lot of architectural firms in…read morethe vicinity of this place that might create enough of a demand for a store like this. Surprisingly enough, there's a lot of cool things for sale, like an architectural history of St. Louis, as well as some diagrams and plans for new developments in the area. This feels like a functional gift shop, where information is sold, rather than trinkets. However, you can buy trinkets, but of a more sturdy quality. They have some really cool St. Louis snow globes available, and some architectural models for the more adventurous hobbyist. I would suggest this to Downtown visitors who are acclimating themselves to St. Louis. It's actually quite informative to glance at the architectural history of the area before venturing off into other parts of the city.

The AIA is the professional organization representing Architects. They have a very nicely designed…read morestorefront on Washington Avenue that functions both as their office and a bookstore / gift shop. They stock many books that would be of interest for architects or those interested in architecture. But they also carry a nice array of gifts and objects d'art related to architecture. As an example, they have some nice postcards, 3d building puzzles, models, paintings, etc. They tend to feature artwork done by local architects such as sculptures or photographs. Anyway, it is a nice little place to take out-of-towners if you are downtown - especially if looking for some St. Louis keepsakes that you can't find anywhere else in town. As a bonus, it gives you an excuse to walk around in the lobby of the Lammert Building, a restored gem of a turn-of-the-century office building downtown.

It…read moreis off the beaten path and definitely on a road I do not travel, but that will not keep me from returning and supporting this local and family owned business. So many of our privately owned bookstores are struggling right now, so we all need to reach out and give them as much support as we possibly can. EyeSeeMe, fortunately has a special niche in the market. It has an extensive inventory of books written for and supporting the children of our African American community. Through their success, they now provide and offer books for high school student and adults as well. Today, I attended a virtual book reading co-sponsored by EyeSeeMe and was totally inspired. Before attending the event I shopped the store and picked up a couple of the books being read. Now that the event is over, I cannot wait to give them to a co-workers son. In fact, in the future, I will be doing a lot of gift shopping here for those hard to buy for friends on my list. It will be easy to find something for them here and it will be inspiring. I cannot encourage you enough, please shop local and please support black owned businesses, too. It makes our community stronger. When: February 20, 2021 Why: Virtual Book Reading Event

I ordered a book online early November for a very special Christmas gift for my father in law. I expressed how important it was to receive in time.

It turned out on the last call 12/23, he admitted he never even had the book to sell. He ruined my Christmas.
