Reviews
What a charming locally owned bookstore. We are visiting from out of town and came across Argo because they are hosting a book reading (something they seem to do regularly). I personally loved the wall of staff recommendations with thoughtfully written notes to accompany each book. One of the owners was manning the cash register and give us more detail on his recommendation when we asked. Seems like the perfect place for someone to spend some time solo browsing. Hope to visit again.
Love this bookstore! Great selection of local authors, and a dedication to specialties (like Japanese literature). I love their staff recommendations wall.
Charming store and super friendly staff - very knowledgeable of their stock and always ready to make recommendations :-D
Though the store is small, they had an awesome selection, and clearly hosted a lot of neighbourhood events as well. I wish I lived close enough to participate in them!
The most contradictory bookstore I've even visited philosophy section looks like it was made to not leave antibody calm. Never have I ever seen Deridda next to book about Jesus followed by Foucault.
Staff excellent. Very friendly and helpful but select was ok. Nothing much for me.
A wonderful, queer-friendly and covid-informed bookstore with nice community events. Thanks to the staff for being so friendly!
Excellent, thoughtful, and up-to-date curation of books in English and translation of Canadian authors. Staff was helpful. Was a nice experience on a cold rainy day!
And a plus: the money doesn't go to Bezos!
We really wish the info about this place was fully updated for online searches. We had expected a huge used bookstore and instead found a tiny room with (nicely displayed/selected) titles squeezed beside a hair salon. Very disappointed.
