Call us at 504-522-9875. We are open 10am – 4pm (while we regain our bearings from the pandemic), seven days a week, 364 days a year (an exemption for Mardi Gras) We have operated a book store in the beautiful historic French Quarter since 1967 and have been at the current location on Decatur Street since 1979. Often customers stroll by on their way to Jackson Square and Cafe du Monde for beignets, surprised that such an independently-owned book store is alive and well in this day and age. Read more
