While it is a bit cramped of a space, they've got tons of books and the maze-like layout makes it an interesting and memorable place to explore. The staff is always very nice, too. I would like if their web site let me search to see if they have certain books or authors, but atleast it has a cool hand drawn map that pinpoints the location of all the book genres within.

There is nothing better than a good bookstore. I could stay in this one for hours. So many good finds and great prices!

Very nice bookstore, has just about anything you want as far as genre of books. Can spend hours in here just browsing. Neat little (or NOT so little) bookstore, parking garage about 1 block away. Very convenient. Will definitely return.

This little book store in downtown Fayetteville, AR is just an amazing gem of all kinds of categorized historical and new books. We were amazed about how deep and tall the aisles were plus how every inch of space was utilized and maximized to store even more books. Great job and bonus for the local students go to Arkansas University nearby.

My new favorite pit stop in Fayetteville. The selection of books is INSANE. You could spend hours inside just walking around and trying to find the right one.The organization and layout feels odd at first, but when you realize how much they offer you come around to it. I ended up buying around 5 books for a total of about $30. Nowhere else in central Arkansas can you find a place like this.

My favorite book store, I travel 5+ hours to come see this place every year.

I asked the man at the checkout about some specific books. He was extremely unfriendly and said, I don't know what we have. He seemed so put out by being asked to help. Then he called out to a woman who worked there. She was very helpful. But I'll never go back. He was so rude. She is why I gave it a 2 star. Otherwise it would be 0.

I’ve been to the Dickson Street Bookshop a few times, both as a customer getting rare books for my cook book collection and as a photographer capturing my clients’ engagement photos. Let me just say the atmosphere inside is incredible, the bookstore is like a maze, a fun maze. Seemingly endless aisles of books from floor to ceiling. Not to forget, super accommodating staff — I’ve called ahead to ask permission to shoot inside the shop and they’ve always been great about it. Thank you!

Can’t say enough good things about this shop. We drive from Ava MO every year or two to spend hours here, leave with at least two giant bags of books and hardly spend more than $100. They have books on every subject imaginable, even multiple sort of niche subjects my husband and I are interested in. Everyone who works here has always been super helpful, and we look forward to our yearly trip here. :)

NWA gem here. We look forward to spending time here and leaving with affordable treasures that build our characters. Much respect and admiration for the team keeping the shelves stocked with amazing finds!

Super groovy book store. More than one person recommended we stop by on our trip. Lots of used and rare books for reasonable prices. Staff was friendly and helpful.

I am a book lover, mostly non fiction and reference books are my thang, variety of genres. I was super hyped to go to this used book store that appeared huge from the online directory. I went with the intention of finding some zoology related references and various price guides to collectibles. The lady out was confusing, yes lots of books and awesome to peruse through but badly labeled, I walked in circles till I just kind of broke it down by the general subject of the books around, I ended up asking for help from a worker and I was told they didn't have either of what I wanted...disappointed. but I understand it's a used book store. I was also surprised at some of the prices, they had outdated informational books at almost today's retail, even yellowed with age! I will have to sell them some of my books and see if the payout is as good as the asking prices though! I'll give it another chance I'm sure but I may just go to the library...

Second only to Powell’s in Portland, OR (nobody else in the US is realistically going to beat a 68,000 square foot bookstore), this is easily the nicest used bookstore I’ve visited in NWA.

Deceivingly large in the best way! Not the most well organized, but that makes it a fun challenge to find the sections. Not a fan of how they displayed the SFF paperback books. They have a solid selection! Walked away with more books than I thought I would!

What a cool bookstore in downtown Fayetteville! There are so many rows of books, all cataloged by genre and author, making it easy to navigate. My favorite part is that it smells like the library from high school - I love the smell of old books!

Fully stocked but some items were overly worn for their price. When buying "vintage" know the market value. Other than that, it was clean and exhaustive.

This is one of my favorite places in the world, not just Fayetteville. My go-to “I’m bored” destination while I was in college. The selection is unbeatable and I almost always found something I wanted to buy. The prices are excellent. The staff are phenomenal - particularly a young man named Evan. He was a student at the time so I’m not sure if he’s still there, but he was always happy, always happy to help, and carried on a great conversation, literary or otherwise.For people whose mood reflects their environment, I highly recommend this place. Dreamy as a fantasy library, and full of that wonderful “old book smell.”Love this place, sad I don’t live in Fayetteville to enjoy it any more.

They are so freaking cool , my only advise would be an upstairs reading room / coffee shop . Even sounds closer to heaven ) not necessarily a height but a place . H.T.L.C.

Theres a very vast selection of books avalible. Very helpful and friendly staff as well. It is conveniently placed within walking distance of countless places to eat, bars, and other stores. I truly love what they've done with the space. It appears to be a rather small store from the exterior but is quite vast. Additionally the selection as far as price range is incredible there are really some great deals on amazing books. I plan on visiting many, many more times .

The best bookstore in the world, and the most interesting thing about Fayetteville. So thankful for this place and the people who work here. A true gift!

This bookstore looks like a quaint litter shop from the outside but is instead a massive expanse of litteraly every genre of book your can imagine! I love visiting this store to browse the endless selves of books and check up on any new Hardy boys they have. Prices are always ultra reasonable and the staff is very kind and knowledgeable.

Always a must when I'm in town. I found my dream set of books here and I always stop in it's as obligatory as visiting my family.

Loved this place. We love books and there are some hard to find gems in this place. We will be back again for sure. The only way this place could be better is if it had a small seating area to read and wait for those whom you came with to finish shopping.
