A fine store. I went in to get some gift cards for Xmas. They have lots of games and toys too. Staff was nice enough. I definitely want to support that local business. There's a Public parking lot near by and some other cool shops to peruse. Head on in!

A real bookstore! Browsing books on a shelf is hard to beat. Also a good selection of kids stuff if you need something last minute for a birthday party.

Terrific bookstore, the kind you want to duck inside on a rainy day. Very kind, helpful folk working there, huge selection..and you can't beat supporting a hometown bookstore.

This is such a wonderful bookstore! I've bought books here in person and ordered online for in-store pickup. Very friendly and generous staff, super fast, and they offer an excellent selection of books and merchandize. Plus, they host fantastic events and support local authors, both new and established. The whole chain is a Bay Area gem. Thank you, Books Inc!

A vanishing endeavor: printed work. But, for some of us, cozying up to a book at night in bed, will never be replaced by 'cozying up to a screen.

A well stocked bookstore and so much more. Books, Inc. is beautifully curated, offers an excellent gift selection, and provides platform to promote local authors. Top notch customer service as well!

I've been in a few Books Inc in the Bay Area, and they're all pretty similar. Clean, quiet, and well organized!!This one in Downtown Alameda on Park Street was all those things! I came in here to get a book as a gift for an avid reader that I know, but I soon ended up browsing for myself, you know how that goes!!This store is a bit small, but they had a very good selection of all types of books, magazines, greeting cards, and an assortment of other items.The staff here was very friendly also!!

Amazon has put so many bookstores out of business so it's always nice to have a brick and mortar bookstore to be able to browse books, flip pages, etc. I've always enjoyed this Books Inc location as they have a nice selection of books, have some sales books, and the store has a nice layout. Always fun to come in here!
