So much to hate about this place. They make me want to buy everything. And it's not because of crafty mountainous book displays. It's because they only seem to stock the best of everything. They have amazing old used books mixed in with new, and the latest books youre looking for. I picked up a 60 ...

This book store is special and you have to like what they sell to really love it. They specialize in bargain books on intellectual subjects. You can get books by French philosophers or art books for 1/3 the cover price. They also sell used books, but they are often pricey out of print books, NOT gen...

Really amazing bookstore with a large variety of books in all spheres, but in particular the philosophy, literary analysis and religious treaties sections were extensive, comprehensive, and all around a great place to browse books from established leaders in their respective fields or more obscure a...

Nice setup and helpful staff. Good selection considering the size. The kids section is very well done. I liked the sitting areas and was shocked by the size of their bargain basement area - looks like room for large readings from authors.

Pretty good bookstore overall, but I miss when the University had its own bookstore, rich with academic books, particularly with respect to the sciences and mathematics.

The sciences are OK here, certainly better than a chain store like B&N (Einstein, Einstein, Hawkin, Dawson, Hawkin, Neil Degra...

...one of the most well-stocked book stores that we've been in; we felt that in six months to a year of reading what we came upon on their shelves, we would be fully informed of what is happening in the world around us. A great section for the youngsters, and a good selection of items of interest.....

Terrible customer service. Like talking to a robot. Have not received a book that I ordered 2 weeks ago. All of my other books that I ordered from different bookstores have come in a week ago. Will not tell me where my book is. Do not have my best interest in mind.

Ive loved this bookstore since it first opened!! I always choose to go here rather than a chain bookstore and Labyrinth ALWAYS has had what I was looking for and when I didn t know given perfect recommendations. That staff is incredibly kind and helpful.

Wonderful local bookstore with knowledgeable associates. Basically the (good) stereotypes of a local bookstore all being true here. The place is usually full of people but I still usually find a place to sit and read (and then buy - doing my bit to keep such bookstores thriving). It helps if you can...

Great atmosphere, plenty of places to read, helpful staff, and large selection. Popular books as well as new finds. Has a kids section, novels, and a large selection on different topics. I don't believe they have textbooks. Also sells cool cards, shirts, etc.

I've been in this store countless numbers of times over the years. I'm particularly grateful for the excellent service in delivery and curbside pickup during the months when most of us were social distancing at home. I congratulate the staff for all of their hard work in reopening.

Cannot say enough good things about this place. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. The environment is highly inclusive, and their dedication to LGBTQ+ rights and representation is admirable. The selection is phenomenal, from more mainstream material to little known French photography magazines...

A special place, somewhere between a community center and dream bookstore. It seems to pull people from the larger towns of Princeton and Trenton, and the small nearby towns especially for the reading series. This where I heard Cory Booker, Jhumpa Lahiri and Tracy K. Smith speak. Often I just come h...

Super extensive book collection, with even more cool stuff in the basement. During the summer they have a book display outside, and it really works to draw people into the store. If you like books and you're in Princeton, you need to visit this spot.
