“Mac’s Backs is an excellent, excellent bookstore. If you want to drop in and buy a good book, you can do that here with zero effort, because Suzanne et al curate the selection with a vengeance. All killer, no filler, as the kids say (I think they say that. I don’t really know any kids).
Here’s the other, deeper thing: if there was some kind of UNESCO Heritage Site designation - but for Cleveland - Mac’s Backs would have that status. This place is a critical piece of the city, one of the reasons Cleveland can say with a straight face that it offers cultural amenities comparable to larger metros. The staff has a genuine and deep knowledge of local literary history as well as being broadly well read; the whole operation is unique and irreplaceable.
PS: quick plug for their website, which makes it easy to find and order books for pickup or ship elsewhere as needed. There literally could not be an easier way to spend your money with a place that’s wildly deserving of it.”
“A must-see for bibliophiles ! Charming shop exterior in a charming neighborhood. As you open the door, it’s as if you have jumped down the rabbit hole into a fairytale store from generations past. As you walk through the store, room opens to next room, which seem to keep going and going. Hundreds of books, used and new, interesting architecture with beautiful carpets and artsy furniture giving many spots to stop and peruse whichever title has caught your eye once removed from the captivating environment. Helpful and knowledgeable staff. Escapist in the most reassuring way. Will be back!”

“Thank you for accepting my 1963 World Book encyclopedia set, complete with annual yearbooks through 1989. All in immaculate condition. Oh the memories! I hope these find their way to where they can educate others.”
“It had everything I would ever need during school a new keyboard, so much merch, and books galore. I got the full set of lotr in leather!!! They even had a sale! 10/10 would go back whenever I could!”
“My wife and I stopped on the way out of Cleveland after weekend trip. So glad we stopped! We found some really books and even better prices! And the staff was very friendly!”
“A lovely spot with a good selection for book lovers, a trendy crowd, and everyone in between. A great place to stop in and grab a few things.Good options for gifts, children's books, some antique items, and up and coming authors. A charming staff and I will be coming back :)”
“Best place to hold a book club meeting. The ambiance is wonderful. I love it that they sell wine and beer. They are super easy to work with. And it's just a really cool bookstore”
“What a beautiful experience coming into the store. The staff was very helpful and I will most definitely will be returning to support them and spreading the word to my family and church family.”

“Great inventory from apparel to daily school suppies. They could have better selection of CWRU apparel, especially name brands like Nike and UA. I also like low profile Nike hats, and it's hard to find any low profile hats here. Otherwise good selection and 10% off for CWRU employees (not valid for students).”
“Wonderful corner bookstore that carries a wide selection of books. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. I've always found books that interest me every time I have visited.”
“This antique store is comprised of two store fronts, and the basement for each store front. The selection is electric, something for everyone. This store is more slanted towards objects (decor, hardware, books, photos, magazines, etc.) than vintage clothing. The prices are very reasonable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Parking is on the street or the city owned Coventry garage a block and a half south.”
“Great customer service is what I just received! Kudos to Maricela! You made the ordering experience easier because you were willing to listen, pleasant, knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you for selecting this beautiful arrangement!”
“One of the University stores of all time. I go here every now and then to buy some supplies or school merchandise, though I wish some things are a little cheaper”
“This isn't your average used bookstore. I stopped by Paper Peddler's Out of Print Books to look around. It is a little hard to find, and the sign was a little faded which made it look like it might have closed - but don't let that deter you. They were stocked with all sorts of old books, magazines, papers, sheet music, and posters. Much of it seemed over 100 years old. I almost bought a book on craniofacial surgery from 1904. I looked at a Harper's magazine from the 1870's and Good Housekeepings from the 1930's. Prices were reasonable and the woman at the front of the store was very friendly.”
“I needed to get some things for my classes from the bookstore. The people who work here were very helpful and taught me how to use my stomp card to purchase supplies. There's also a kiosk here that allows you to check your stomp card balance. Definitely helpful for someone who's new to Tri-C.”

“It is a very nice Jewish store apart from everything, they took good care of us. I bought the Torah there in Spanish and Hebrew and my girlfriend bought a menorah and candles.”
