Small and perfectly formed! It's a secondhand bookshop that's crammed with a diverse range of titles (including an extensive, dedicated sci-fi and fantasy section, which especially caught my eye). And it's run by the awesome 'Mr Books', who's as knowledgeable and friendly as he is passionate about literacy. Loved it and already looking forward to more visits.

Simply put the best used books shop in Belfast and probably the whole of Northern Ireland. To be honest I find more gems here than any of the big chain bookstores. That alone deserves 5 stars but when you add the friendliness, knowledge of the owners and their love of community 5 stars isn’t really enough.

I've bought books from these guys and I have to say, they're just pure lovely!!! Got some great selection, and cheaper than the big chains and online super-conglomerates. I've bought more books than you can shake a stick at over the years, and this one is right up there as one of the best book-buying experiences.

Purchased online from this local store as I don’t get up to Belfast often but wanted to support a local business during Covid and I follow them on Twitter. I really can’t praise them enough. Fantastic personal service and so friendly. Free and very fast delivery and competitive prices. Highly recommended.

It was 2 years ago and I wanted to buy my sister a collection of books she'd read as a teenager based in Belfast, I was only able to get 3 outta 5 on Amazon, however Belfast Books, they got me the remainder, what a brilliant read when you are from Belfast. Joan Lingard, short but brilliant. Thanks Belfast Books Also does pickup from Wish and other sites with cheaper shipping costs
