“Amazing spot! Art plus books plus snacks! When I visited today I was the only person in the store and was totally free to browse and enjoy the art and books. They had an amazing collection of retablos by Peruvian artist Zuly Palomino as well as work by other artists. I did not partake of any snacks since I just had breakfast but they had a nice set up with a bar counter as well as tables closer to the books. Lots of fiction and some non fiction and a really good selection of cookbooks- lots of Barefoot Contessa books. Really look forward to stopping in here the next time I'm in Warren.”
“Helpful, friendly, knowledgeable staff, able to talk geek at a high level. Wonderful selection. Came into town for this shop, and didn't leave disappointed. Left with some swag and a Howard collection.”
“Great selection of magazines and even maps! Looks small outside but inside is a surprise Full of great reading! Always kind friendly service too! If you're in the area, we recommend you stop in and take a look for yourself.”
“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.”
“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.”
“As a local game store they have a very good selection of games. They have had game events in the past I can't say if they still do. This is my first choice to go look for something.”
“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.”
“I enjoy this store for it wide variety of odds and end, a fun store to bring a kid to if you don't have a lot of money . Also. Great place to buy a kid a present to bring to. Party without breaking the BANK.”
“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!”
“Great selection of books as well as STEAM toys. The people there are friendly and always ready to assist you in finding that perfect gift (gift wrap it for FREE ??) for any age range.”

“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.”
“Books are Wings does amazing things for kids in Rhode Island. It helps children who might not otherwise have books of their own build a library of their own. Its a great place to volunteer, a great place to donate.”
“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.”

“School store for all your RWU needs. Though calling it a "Barnes and Noble" is wierd as they only cary ordered books. More of a partnership if you will. Very overpriced as well.”
“Excellent, high quality paper! So many cute designs. I have been buying personalized wrapping paper from this company for a few years. My grandsons birthday gifts and Christmas gifts always look great- and are very special to them because it has their name and a design that they love. Will keep coming back due to the high quality, fast shipping, and excellent customer service!”

“Great selection of books! Really amazing cookbooks I added to my collection. A local bookstore that will warm your heart. It felt like the unique books were individually picked by the owners, not a big box store”
