“Riffraff Books in PVD, is a one-of-a-kind gem that combines a curated selection of books with a hip neon bar atmosphere. Whether you're a bookworm searching for hidden literary gems or some tea and pastry this is for you.Bro their book Selection: is WILD but in a good way. You won't find the lastest book ghost written book by James Patterson or Danielle Steele here. This bookshop is devoted to independent, and alternate presses and even has some zines. You're sure to find something unexpected and delightful to add to your bookshelf. It's always a fun time to walk here and the factory living and working center they're located in is beautiful for the city to revitalize an old mill!!!!!!”
“A really fun bookstore in the heart of Providence. The displays are great, usually the flat lays include a book or two that I am looking for. The coolers for soft drinks/waters are also a nice feature.”
“Books on the Square punches above its weight. Everyone on staff is very kind and their $1 books and used book deals cannot be beat. I also really enjoy their selection of Rhode Island specific trinkets and cards and I always come here when I am shopping for gifts.”
“My first opportunity to attend an event here and though the event was enjoyable, I found myself quite smitten by the eclectic and unassuming products in the gift shop....To be honest, I wandered in there to take a phone call & was pleasantly surprised.
Equally charming was a gentleman playing what is I believe a ukulele outside of the restroom and as I turned left, I noticed the Jonathan Bonner Exhibit...
I love art and true to form: A little boy saw a box with a tongue sticking out & I saw the belt my Immigrant Mom used to ensure excellent report cards & inspire higher education in us⭐OR Megan Thee Stallion...”
“It is a great little store when looking to purchase a book as a gift, it doesn't seem to be the fun kind of store where someone could spend hours looking through the stacks.”
“Most incredible experience my daughter has ever had. Her goal is to attend Brown, so on vacation we decided to check out the bookstore and grab a souvenir. The staff there was so incredible including one amazing woman who decided to bless it forward. It made the entire vacation. We cannot thank her enough. Hopefully she sees this time know how much it meant. Loyal future Brown kid!”
“Heaven for artists. Everything you need to buy for your project except creativity. Huge paper section. (I bought some Italian paper/prints of flowers, mushrooms, birds, etc for about $6 each that I plan to frame.) They have a huge selection of journals, too. Michaels is a consumerist joke compared to this store. Honestly, you could spend two hours here, salivating.”
“Sparkling gem in downtown Providence. Small, but chock full of African American history. So much to see and read. Full of classic books and publications, many signed. Ray and Rob both were very welcoming. Profits support their program to teach inner city youth, especially from the Black community, how to swim. A great place to visit. You could stay all day! Hope to visit when I'm in the area again.”
