Great selection of books and cards, friendly service. The children's section is very welcoming with a couch to read on.

I am a longtime customer and devotee of Left Bank Books. Although I don't live in the Midcoast area anymore, I still make it a priority to come to Left Bank Books when I visit. Proprietors are always friendly, helpful and accommodating when I phone in and when I come in person, and I am so glad to have such a wonderful bookstore in Belfast! Selection, prices, and workers are always fabulous.

What an incredible book store! They have an amazing selection and the layout of the store is warm and inviting. We got to chat with the new and previous owner and couldn't be more pleased with our experience. We will be back regularly for sure!

We loved this bookshop! Great selection but not too overwhelming, solid kid & YA section, and the staff were so helpful in suggesting a range of books. Everything you want from an indie shop.

I wanted to love this book store, but the clerk or owner (not sure who she was) argued with me about a display book. I intended to purchase the book but didn’t want the display copy, and she disputed the request in an argumentative tone. I did attempt to clarify and explain my reasoning, she wouldn’t accept it and rudely interrupted me twice. I gave up, walked out, and purchased the book from another retailer.Take it easy on your patrons, they are there because they love books and will hopefully make a purchase. Leave the argumentative communication at home.

Beautiful bookstore with a nice variety, however, I was disappointed and off put by the manager?/owner? who had no filter in hiding her disgust as my kids looked excitedly around the kids section. I found it extremely disrespectful and tacky to visibly be so irritated by kids excited to look at and read books something one would think a BOOK store owner would want to foster. Quite honestly she just struck me as a snob…Maybe a museum curator would be up her alley
