Nice, little bookstore the employee was very helpful and knowledgeable about the type books that I was looking for. The downside is the store isn't accessible do to it being an older building.
Lovely small bookshop. Amy was a delight and helped my partner and I find a few good books. They even ordered in a book for my partner cheaper than off Amazon and faster too. 10/10
Giving my appreciation to Krissy for all their knowledge and giving us such a great first impression of the place. Love the book collection, and the staff! Will return next time in in Indy.
Spending Black History Month being intentional about seeking out and patronizing black-owned businesses. Loudmouth Books is a warm & cozy space nestled just north of downtown Indy. My goal was to secure a copy of To Kill A Mockingbird & ended up also grabbing another great book too! The man behind the counter was kind and courteous and helped me locate the now "banned" book I was seeking. I appreciated the children's book nook which was also warm and inviting for children of all ages! If you find yourself in this area, be sure to stop in and shop this fantastic addition to the city!
