Book Stores near Wellfleet, MA

“Nice little bookstore. It's very small but cozy and has a decent collection considering how small it is. The staff was friendly too. There's an old patio behind the store that would be amazing if it was renovated and made into a cozy outdoor spot to sip a coffee and read a book. Just be careful parking here; it's very cramped and there isn't a lot of visibility when backing out into the street. Would love to check this place out again when I don't have a toddler distracting me!”

“I will definitely be back for the fantastic food and the friendly service. I recommend the dinning room upstairs for a great view. I will have to go back also to see the bookstore which wasn't open yet.”

“Wow! This place is awesome! It literally feels like you are walking into some type of alternate reality where magic exists! I was half expecting a bunch of fairy's to flutter out from behind one of the leather bound books. Perhaps a knight was about to ask me to aide him in a noble quest as I turned a corner into the fantasy section. This store oozes with the authenticity and wonder that has now been all but lost to the realm of modern book stores. It isn't the size of a mega book retailer, but that's a good thing. There aren't people shouting for muffins and coffees as an employee frantically restocks blue rays and a group of teens walk by - cackling at the nudity in a book of classical renaissance paintings. This store is lined wall to wall with books. It is also put inside what appears to be the mansion of some old sea captain! Perhaps it was the entrance hall to his dwelling on Cape Cod of long ago. The air smells of fresh lavender and crisp library paper - a subtle node of sea salt lingers as well. There is also lots of cool new age stuff and fun metal jewelry and crystal. This place is like a witch and wizard watched "page master," and decided to move to Cape Cod for a simpler life. The prices are phenomenal, the selection is CRAZY big, and the woman working the cash register was quite possibly the sweetest person I have ever interacted with. Usually I would say "support this small town business" but this time I'm saying "DONT MISS OUT!" Because it's that good!! Happy hunting y'all!”

“The Sea Howl has a wonderful selection of books, including a section filled with works by local authors and others dedicated to local lore. The staff are always helpful and friendly. They also have a small cart near the checkout with some gently used books for purchase. The Sea Howl is tucked between some other great shops if you have other errands to run. I love that the health food store is right next door.”
