1599 SE Rd, Farmington“Can I just say how nice it is to still have a bookstore to go to? This is one is the same as ever, lots of selection, nice staff who love books who are willing to help.”
“This is a good-sized bookstore here in blue back square. They have a large selection here and a friendly staff.
There is parking in the near-by parking garage.
The area is nice. Last time we were in the area, they had live music being performed outside of here.”
“This has been a go-to place of mine for years since Borders closed and most of the decent private booksellers are not in this area.
As is true with lots of places, things have gone a bit downhill since COVID, and the place is a bit shabby. It's comforting to still have easy chairs to sit in at a bookstore, but the Canton, CT chairs are worn out and disgustingly soiled. Surely, there is a budget for such things.
The cafe area is gross-- they should've continued to clean tables as they did following COVID.
The long-time bookselling staff is still friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.”
“We had a great time making "Snailentines" and listening to the Valentine story last Saturday with my 3 year old granddaughter -- well done River Bend ❣️”
“I absolutely love Necker's they had a whole horse section prices were a bit high I got 6 things and it costed 50$ so sheesh on the price but I went today and loved it.”
