Yorktown Bookshop

I love this place. It's full of treasures and is worth the drive to Yorktown just to visit. We drive over an hour to come here and visit Mobjack coffee. They have rare finds AND great deals. Their special pieces are fairly priced when I compare to EBay etc., so happy to get something special here and support this business continuing to find treasures to share with us all. Plus they're friendly folks. Make the trip!

This is a great little used bookshop, that includes several vintage items as well. We stopped in on vacation, and I wish we would have had a bit more time to explore as there was so much to look through. If you love books or memorabilia, definitely stop in if you're in the area.

Who doesn't love a bookshop full of shelves and shelves of volumes of book on every subject under the sun! This small bookstore in the heart of Yorktown's river walk will draw you in and keep your interest as you scour the novels, tomes, reference titles, classics, poetry books, history/Civil War collections and many other publications! I especially love the kids corner! We spent over an hour in here! The prices are somewhat higher than many other "new and used" bookstores because of the tourist traffic, so be prepared to spend a pretty copper! You will not only be mesmerized by the sheer amount of books crammed into every nook and cranny of this space, but it's also filled with memorabilia, collectibles, antiques, games, toys, and décor! The owner knows his stuff and is a fountain of information, but he's a bit gruff, so don't take his comments too personal. He's surrounded by piles of old, used, dusty books and maybe the dust is getting to him too! Nevertheless, if you don't mind the "organized chaos" of this cool shop, I doubt you'll leave empty handed!

After the Harvest Festival, we checked out the Yorktown Bookshop, a used book store that sells used toys, military stuff, used records, and other antiques. It was cool to browse and pick up artifacts and relics!

This is a lovely shop, with a little bit of everything.I enjoyed the way the way it was organized, it felt welcoming and the shopkeeper was super friendly.It's a history lover's paradise.I'll definitely be back, as one can spend hours in here.

This is such a lovely used bookshop, and it's right in the heart of Yorktown's Riverwalk Landing. It's not huge, so it's easy to navigate. I zeroed in on the general fiction section, in search of a book or two since I was almost done the one I brought with me for my little road trip.It didn't take me long to grab two, but when I brought them to the register to pay, the incredibly friendly man working suggested I grab a couple more, as they were offering a buy 3, get one free promotion that day! I'm so glad he let me know! I easily grabbed two more and only paid $22 for all four! At $5.50 per book, I couldn't ask for a better price.Also, probably a helpful tip for tourists like me: Make a right out of the bookshop and you'll easily find the area's clean public restrooms a few steps away!

Amazing books, informative, and treasures to discover. I found many priceless items. Can't wait to go back. Even my children loved the space.

What a neat little bookshop! They have so much that I could spend an entire day looking through it all. Things are quite literally stacked on top of each other, so there's that. I look forward to getting to dig some more. Some of the pricing is a little high - in my opinion, however, it's not unreasonable. I found a 1st edition of the 3rd Harry Potter book to add to my collection.

The owner is very rude, he goes to used sales and collects all he can and is mean and yells at people to stay away from his books. I have seen him get very aggressive towards people who come between him and his drive to put these books up for sale. You shouldn't be in business if that is your true self. Other reviews verify this man is not nice, buyer beware. I am a Veteran as well, that doesn't mean you claim that and act as such.

I went here yesterday! I wanted to make sure I left a review only because my family & I were so so endeared by the lady who worked there (her name was Stephanie if I remember correctly?). She was super sweet, super helpful, and offered up tons of information to help guide my sister & I through the store and find what we were looking for. I hope I get to come back one day and with way more time to spend browsing through the store, but I walked out with so much treasure for a first time. This store is a gold mine!!!!!
