Paul Comeau

It was such a pleasure to browse the shelves of a well-curated print book store - a luxury seemingly taken for granted, not so long ago before the grip of digital publishing and online book selling and trading. If you like the smell of printed literature and the touch, weight, and sight of bound books, this is a place you'll love.

You'll find a satisfying selection of everything from current releases, to the canon of Western literature, Philosophy, World Religions, and Psychology, plus a large selection of illustrated novels and more for the younger audiences as well.

This BMV is also pleasantly easy on your pocketbook - with prices this good, any bibliophile will be hard-pressed not to walk out with a satchel full of impossible to resist purchases worthy of one's library.

I look forward to my next visit - I suppose I'll need to build more bookshelves! 😃

Very pleasant, spacious, cool oasis in the middle of downtown hustle and bustle. Centred between the Eaton Centre, Old City Hall, and containing one of the city's oldest churches, this is a perfect escape.

Fantastic space with exposed brick walls and a bar stocking decent beer and wine. Fantastic gathering for the cinematically inclined. Nice preserve of the old underground vibe of the neighbourhood.

Very enjoyable space for a private screening .... Highly recommended! 😀
