They have a great place. So much history things from the past. If you like antiques then it's easy to spend a couple of hours walking through the place. There are multiple levels and its easy to miss a section. They only take cash as payment.

Book Bazaar 4 36 reviews

If you are considering selling your books then this review is for you. We had a very disappointing experience dealing with David at the Book Bazaar. He was extremely gruff and just plain rude in our exchanges. Never once did he say thank you or did...

What a magical place this is! Arguably fable-like in it's wonders. Ideal place for an afternoon browse and a hand hold (should you be so lucky!).

327 Rideau St, Ottawa, ON

I found a book for $5 inside the store, and brought it to the counter. While the guy was asking me about any other books I was looking for, I watched him replace the sticker price tag with a $10 one. I didn't call him out because I knew I would...

My fiancée and I visited about a week ago to get a bunch of books for a wedding project we're working on. We phoned ahead and told the staff of our plans, and they were very supportive. When we arrived, they had picked out a stack of books for...
Janus Books 4.8 9 reviews
10 Paisley St, Guelph, ON

Typically they only have newer books and they can be kinda pricy for used, but they are in EXCELLENT condition. They do buy books but they are VERY particular about what they take (which is good for us buyers!). Very small store but they have TONS of books...

The Book Re-View - Used Book Store 5 1 review
438 West Street N #2, Orillia, ON
Huge amount of used books. Friendly and helpful. Very organized. Brand new books are priced the same as well used. Just as a caution the only downfall is the overwhelming smell of cat urine. They have an extremely friendly pet in store.
D & E Lake Ltd. 3.3 19 reviews
239 King St E, Toronto, ON

Incredibly rude merchant who agressively told my daughter and I that if we were to come into the store, that we were required to purchase something. That impression ruined our interest in locating some rare finds that we will quite happily find...
