What people say

"This is a true gem of a vintage bookstore situated in Galerie Vivienne. It was opened in 1826 and the bookstore was handed down the generations to the current owner. When you walk in, it feels like a welcoming library with the old book smell and every shelf packed full of books. It is a great place to browse, maybe find a collector's book, purchase the unique postcards or have a friendly chat with the owner."
"A library that you will not want to miss, for it is probably one of the prettiest of Paris. Located in a covered-passage, you can explore the big trays filled with books while appreciating the amazing decoration of this architectural gem. Opened until 1826, many writers used to buy their books here, including Colette. It is preserved today as an historic monument. "
