The Garden District Book Shop

Stumbled upon The Garden District Book Shop which walking around the Garden District, very cute modern looking book shop. Bright and clean and even has a shop dog! There's even several other shops and a public restroom in the shopping center.

The cutest bookshop! We were in the neighborhood and are big book lovers so when we found the Garden District Book Shop on Yelp, we knew we had to swing by. It's located inside the Rink shopping center.The shop isn't huge but they do have so many books from all genres. Plus they have lots of seating including a lounge area with a TV. There was a community table with a puzzle out for everyone to work on. They even have a small bar for you to purchase some drinks and stay awhile.The staff was super helpful and you could tell that they took the time to get to know their customers/regulars. I loved getting to say hello and pet their bookshop dog. Looks like they also had a lot of events. Such a great local bookstore to support!

Such a cute little book shop with a wide variety of book genres! I bought three books while I was here-- all about New Orleans. But they wasn't the basic stuff that you normally see about New Orleans. I really enjoy the inventory here and I wanted to buy more than I did! I would say the price is comparable to any other local bookstore or even books online. In my opinion, it's better to support local than Amazon so buy your books here! The reason I am even leaving this review, though is because of the effort they are making to form a sense of community here. They left a puzzle out on the table with a sign that said "Help us build the puzzle!". They also hold events weekly and have a bar inside that opens every afternoon at 3 PM. The drinks also are themed towards quotes from books.Make sure you say hello to the dog inside!!

Stumbled across this while waiting for a tour after getting come coffee at Chicory in the same building. Bookstore was bright and clean, and I just loved the open ceiling and bright lights (all the stores have this). Best surprise? The DOGGOS! They have a resident dog, but they're also dog friendly, so I saw not just one, but TWO dogs, on a random weekday here. They also seem to have special events near the back, with a full cocktail bar. This was probably one of the nicest hidden gems while visiting NOLA, and made me wish I lived in the Garden District. Highly recommend!

This is a really cute bookshop. They have trending books, the classics, and a good variety of other books. Garden District is really cool because they have small events throughout the month and food during the week. There is a really good Filipino popup there on Thursday evenings and hot dogs on Tuesdays. They've also just opened a bar here with happy hour wine prices and specialty cocktails. It was really relaxing to have a cocktail with the new novel I bought. My only regret is not asking a friend to shop for books here with me.

Such a cool bookshop. Really interesting categories has some lovely sections on New Orleans specializing on food,drinking, history, and they even have a mystery section for New Orleans. They have some rare books by signed authors like Anne Rice and Pat Conroy, but those were quite expensive. The coolest thing, though it has a bar and a dog what else do you want in a world in a bookstore?

One of my favorite bookstores in the area! Always something fun going on, and the bar is a nice touch ;)

I love having a bookstore in this neighborhood and have found a lot of great gifts here, specifically Nola classic postcards and Nola themed children's booksAssistance/service can vary- the younger gentleman is fantastic and has made suggestions I would not have thought of on my own- the older woman can be cranky so you're better off waiting for him

I was ABSOLUETLY SHOCKED to see Carol, the owner of garden District selling extremely sexually explicit reading materials to young children. I witnessed this happen several times actually on December 13. She clearly does not read the materials that she sells. This store should be shut down, but in the meantime, I am filing a police report.

Why did this book shop immediately remove any sign of Gypsy Rose Blanchard after her book signing event On December 13th? Why is there no copies of her memoi, no signed copies, no GR latte martini and no signs anywhere?
