One thing I'll always do on vacation is find a local bookstore. This one was incredible; huge selection, every genre you could think of, and even the sweetest little section just for kids. There were so many fun trinkets, tote bags, notebooks, plushies... and my favorite part? A pet bunny! They even have a cozy café up front, making it the perfect place to spend a few hours just wandering the shelves. Safe to say this is a bookstore I'll be coming back to every time I'm in Las Vegas. read more

I found out about Writer's Block from @norma.geli and planned a visit during my Vegas trip. I enjoy walking through bookstores especially when they also sell cute tchotchkes. I saw these cute animal figurines that hold one single candle, my favorite was the octopus ($55). It's small and fits in the palm of your hand. I wish I had bought it, because how often do you get to blow out a birthday candle sitting in a cute, little octopus. This is a great shop and more than worth a visit. There is only street parking, but you might get lucky and find a spot at the front. The seating for the coffee shop is limited. Finding a table for more than two people can be challenging, there were only two 4-tops, 2-3 seats at the bar and maybe four 2 seaters. read more

Absolutely LOVED this place. Not a lot of places to sit and enjoy your coffee or pastries. However if you can't find a seat or table you are able to get lost in a wonderland of books, upon books and soooo many other fun nicknacks. It's amazing for everyone - kids and adults alike.

A private little nook! Off all alone in the corner! A great book and your favorite beverage, you're "good" for hours! Welcome to the Writers Block! A bookstore and coffee shop store all together! Yes we have one of these, even here in Vegas. Nestled in the middle of nowhere downtown is yes a bookstore. A coffee shop with a huge selection of books. It reminds me of wandering through a Powells bookstore in Portland. We came to see this vision and were just blown away. The writers block was encouraging and inspiring. The employees here emphasized kindness and compassion. The store design is truly magical. It's something that needs to be shared and appreciated. Come and join the conversation. Have the best of days ahead with your projects completed with the best of intentions and surroundings. Now welcome to the writers block and all the fun that awaits you. read more

Cute concept of having a bookstore attached to a coffee shop! I got a honey vanilla latte and it was actually really good. Not too sweet or milky. The service from the baristas wasn't good nor friendly, but as long as my drink is good it's fine lol read more

This place is adorable! We loved the bookstore portion and all the cute birds around the store, however, we both didn't love our coffees. They made our order wrong but quickly fixed it which we appreciated. My honey cinnamon latte was just ok, I mostly drank it for the caffeine boost. My husband didn't like the pistachio latte, he ended up throwing it away. This place has so much potential we just wish the coffee was better. It is worth the visit for the vibes alone! We would give it another shot and both order something different. read more

Wow, wow, wow. This place made my adult self so excited and fully brought out my inner nerd. Let's start with the coffee, so good. I honestly didn't expect it to be this solid because the bookstore itself feels so elevated, but they absolutely delivered. The café was bustling on a Sunday afternoon, and the smell of fresh coffee hit you right away. I ordered a sugar-free oat milk latte and really enjoyed it. Now the bookstore... it's big, thoughtfully laid out by genre, and packed with options. It feels like an elevated version of Barnes & Noble but with way more personality. The lighting leans a little on the dim side, but it doesn't take away from browsing at all, in fact, it kind of adds to the vibe. There are shelves everywhere plus curated tables throughout, so you'll constantly find something new. They also have the cutest selection of items in glass cases, clips, jewelry, figurines, and other unique finds. Tons of book accessories too, like reading lights and bookmarks. And yes... there's even a bunny living its best life in there, which somehow makes the whole experience even better. It's the kind of place where you can easily spend hours wandering around, finding gifts, or just hanging out. Service was super friendly, and you can tell the staff genuinely enjoys being there, which makes sense, because honestly... who wouldn't? read more

What a cute bookstore tucked about downtown LV. Located right next to the Beverly Theater. There is some street parking. You may have to park down the block as it gets a little crowded. The bookstore itself is cute and whimsical with tons of great gifts as well. This particular day I stopped in to grab a coffee. There is some seating but not much. If you're looking for a good book and good coffee, I highly recommend checking it out. It's more and more rare that we have physical bookstores with so many things that are digital now. Go support a great local bookstore in town read more

I know I know. I'm a TERRIBLE Las Vegan for just now finally coming to Writer's Block and honestly, I've been missing out. What a GEM in DTLV! WOW! Such a cool spot where you can grab a cup of coffee and work inside or on the patio, and then browse their bookstore to grab a book to take home or read there. I'm obsessed with this place. I spent probably 30 minutes just walking around the bookstore taking it all in. They have every type of book you can imagine and then even journals and puzzles and things like that, too. They also had a little bunny in a cage that was so cute haha. But they also have stuffed animals and dolls and toys and things like that that you can purchase, too. It's an artificial bird sanctuary, meaning the birds are fake but you can literally even buy those and take them home! And I loved the atmosphere that they create. As you're walking through, it feels like you're in Disneyland or a magical fairytale land. The music and ambiance is seriously magical. I ended up buying a baby book about pasta and a stuffed baby lamb since my maiden name means Baby Lamb in Italian ahah. I couldn't resist! I also got the strawberry banana smoothie and tried the blueberry muffin which was delicious, too. This certainly won't be my last visit here. I'm obsessed. read more

I came across this coffee shop through one of my scrolls on the web. I'm happy I stopped by! It's so much more than a coffee shop. It is this magically, decorated space. It is full of character and they offer books of every genre. An added cute touch was their little pet bunny. Adorable! The ambiance in there felt like comfort and the customer service was great. You could really settle in this safe space. To drink, I had an Oatmilk Lavender and Vanilla latte. It was good! 5/5 stars I'm looking forward to adding this into my coffee shop rotation. read more

The Writer's Block - Inside - Bookstores Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

The Writer's Block is located in the downtown Arts District, and it's such an adorable bookstore/coffeehouse. If you're looking for real coffee -- not the overly sweet stuff like Dutch Bros -- this is absolutely the place. The coffee is strong, inexpensive, and actually tastes like coffee. You can also get a little nibble to eat, which I really appreciate. This place is LGBTQ-friendly for sure, and it's decorated so cute and thoughtfully. There's so much to look at. They have all kinds of books, and while it's a bit of a tight squeeze, it's beautifully done and totally makes up for it. One thing I didn't love: the chairs at the tables weren't very comfortable, especially if you're on the thicker or bigger side. That was probably my only real complaint. The staff wasn't overly smiley or chatty, but they do take care of you, and that's what matters. I also liked that they have a separate little area where you can order and pay for a book, then pick it up at the front without having to wander through the bookstore again. There are only a few tables -- probably around 10 spots total where you can actually sit and work or study -- so I'd recommend getting there early if that's your plan. Overall, this is a definite must-see. I really liked this place and would absolutely go back. Highly recommend. read more

Such a beautiful store! I could spend all day looking at everything they have! The shelves of books, the different stacks of items on tables, under tables and tucked in corners makes it like a treasure hunt!! They have a cute little bunny pet mid store, which was a nice addition to the artificial bird sanctuary vibes they have with all of the artificial birds everywhere as well as the sounds of birds chirping and soft music playing. We got a coffee up front - it was delicious! And then made our way through the store! It makes you wish that they had little reading spaces to curl up in and hang out...but it's a bookstore! not a library! haha!! We had to remind ourselves of that! read more

The Writer's Block is a coffee shop and unique bookstore in Downtown Las Vegas that's pretty cool! There are a few tables in the front for those that are drinking lattes. They serve Olympia Coffee here. I ordered a honey cinnamon latte, which did the job. My wife ordered a Lavender Vanilla latte, but her drink was too heavy-handed with the Lavender. Parking here is street parking and we were able to snag free parking in front of the store on a weekend day; however, your miles may vary on that. While the coffee was fine, what we enjoyed more was their charmingly decorated bookstore, where we both found some gems to take home with us. We definitely didn't expect what we saw here!It has pretty cool ambiance and we were happy that we stopped by as we needed to kill some time before we were able to check in to our hotel. read more

I'm an avid reader and usually stick to borrowing from the library, but after hearing so many friends tell me I'd love this bookstore, I finally checked it out. I'm so glad I did. I ended up buying a collection, but honestly, I probably could've spent hours just wandering & hanging out in the cafe section of the store. This is the kind of place you can get lost in. The decor is immersive & cozy. I love how they decorated for the holidays, on top of the artificial bird sanctuary theme. The sections are thoughtfully curated with not just books, but also unique little finds like garden seeds, puzzles, rulers, and gifts. I loved how organized, yet whimsical everything felt. Another thing that stood out to me was the selection. Beyond bestsellers, there were genuinely interesting, lesser-seen/promoted titles that you may not find displayed elsewhere. Also, when I needed help finding a specific author, a staff member took me directly to their work with no problem. This is absolutely a place I'll return to when I'm ready to buy a book, and one I'll bring my bookish friends to whenever they visit. A really cool, memorable experience. read more

Subtly hidden in the either very busy or very quiet down town area, just west of Fremont district is this little Diamond in the rough. With the law office in almost every direction there is this quiet sanctuary of intellectualism. Eclectic and almost eccentric, this Book store is designed with an almost maze like layout. It seemed overwhelming at first, but like any good read, my suggestion is dove right in, and plan on coming back for more, even after you think you've seen it all, there is usually something that you missed. Although the decor is gentle it provides a sensory adventure that is calming. There is subtle tones, specifically i think i heard birds chirping, and it boosts itself as a an Artificial Bird Sanctuary. A suggestion from a new and valued friend, i am so excited I set my weekend to discovering this gem. Thank you Writers Block and its staff, i plan to visit again! 10/10 read more

I think maybe I hyped myself up too much for this bookstore after reading reviews and it fell short of my expectations. To park at this bookstore, there are a few parking spots in the alleyway behind the bookstore but its not many (like 3-4?)-better to just street park. There is plenty of space to street park even when we went on a Saturday afternoon. This bookstore is split into a coffee shop and a bookstore. Coffee shop is up front. There were plenty of people studying so might be a good spot to study but there weren't any open tables from what I could see. The bookstore itself is quaint and has a lot of decor going on (there's even a cute bunny). It was nice to kind of walk around for some minutes and peruse their collection of books, stationary, and other small trinkets/gifts. However, my main issue was a lack of book recommendations displayed to draw a reader in and a lack of interaction from staff. I did end up buying a book to support independent bookshops, but the book was one I had already been looking to buy for some months now. I like to go to bookshops to discover new authors or titles but this was maybe just not the right layout for me. read more

This place is Vegas' hidden gem! Parking is everywhere and you will have to pay expect during designated days and time slots. came on a Sunday it was free. I could have spent more time here but felt rushed by my partner. They had generic journal inserts that you can find almost anywhere like Moleskin. If you're looking for Japanese style journal system like Travelers Company, keep searching as you won't find it here. They do have Kaweco pens and ink cartridges, as well as ink bottles here. I thought that was a WIN! I did grab a coffee as well and it was delicious. I was able to "take it to go" and walk around the bookshop, so that was nice. Also, they have a cute bunny sheltered amongst the books in a cage and that was a cute touch. The place is cramped a but and you can be overstimulated as to how many books there are to see and read. Funny enough, I walked out with pen cartridges and a reusable museum bag. Exactly what I wanted and been looking for. Check them out! I would say since they have so much stock, ask questions at front counter and they can lookup items too. read more

What a place of sensory overload, in the best way! This is the cutest place to visit for a bookstore. The café is nice and fills up quickly, with every seat and table occupied. As you walk farther past the café, the bookstore becomes your own enchanting space, with so much to see and books for days, all organized into their respective categories. As you browse for the category you're looking for, you'll also find all kinds of extras, bookmarks, collectibles, real animals like a bunny , and a huge presence of cardinals throughout the store. I love how each category is separated into diverse and fun sections. Seeing books for kids and teens, too, was awesome. There was so much to explore that I found myself drawn into one corner after another, going through entire shelves, discovering great reads, and having a hard time deciding which books to buy. Still, it was a great experience. It would be nice to have a single "soft" chair in each area for ADA accessibility while browsing and deciding on books, sometimes finding the right book takes time. Overall, this is one of the best bookstores I've been to in a long time, by far! Go enjoy some tea, coffee, or a good book, it's a great place. I do recall that the café closed at 5 PM. I got so lost in the books that I missed the opportunity to enjoy some tea. Maybe on my next visit. Till then, Happy Yelping!!! read more

We had a bit more free time than expected on our first day in Vegas, so of course I looked for a fun bookstore instead of heading to any of the casinos. The Writer's Block is an adorable and large bookstore with a wide variety of material to choose from! You enter into a coffee shop area with minimal seating and then move into the bookstore behind that. So the reason for my 4 stars instead of 5 is that you can't bring books into the coffee shop area unless you've already bought them PLUS there's absolutely not one single chair to sit down and read some of the books in the actual bookstore area. I would have spent so much more time browsing (and probably buying) here if I could have sat down and sampled some of my potential books. Even so, the place is lovely and has so much fun decoration throughout the bookshelves. Subjects and genres were clearly labeled save for the initial section up front. A co-worker and I tried to determine what the section heading would be for this spot, and we drew a blank. A mix of some classics, new reads, and things in between I hadn't yet heard of. And lots of artificial birds and a live rabbit. A whimsical place to get lost in. read more

This place is heaven - coffee, contemporary literature, a hidden garden feel? Aptly named. I would also come here if I had writers block...or is it that you'll get blocked here because you get lost in the enchantment? Regardless, we came to get some reprieve from the heat. I originally thought to just do an iced tea but then the matcha earl grey caught my eye and that was that. It's a combo I hadn't seen before so I had to try it. I also added a snickerdoodle because cookies are my weakness. The drink was excellent! It was a little grassy from the matcha but finished with the nice bergamot orange flavor of the earl grey. Yum! The cookie was a bit cakey for my liking but I did like the amount of cinnamon. After you enjoy your treats, definitely take time to get lost in the bookstore. It's such a fun experience! read more
