eBar Restaurant @ The Bookshelf - Guelph, Ontario

Lovely book shop with a great selection, am yet to go to the cinema. I found the shelves a bit confusing to navigate at first but staff have always been a pleasure when helping look for a book or author.

Ooo I loved this place. They got good collection of books. There’s a cafe inside. Didn’t try any food or drinks so don’t wanna comment on that. But they got good range of book genres and nice collection. Also got stationary and games.

The COOLEST book store around. Please don’t order from Indigo or Amazon. They can order whatever you like and it’s an awesome local business. Great selection of inclusive books from supporting women to LGBTQIA+, to all the classics. They’ve even got frisbees for frisbee golf!

Cool bookstore with lots of selection of books and a great place to get new movie posters! Definitely one of the places to visit in Guelph!

I visited in-person for the first time since COVID and it's still the same warm and cozy bookstore you'd expect in a romanticized movie. Coming in from the rain on a slow Froday afternoon, I'm greeted by friendly staff and their selection of new and recommended books. The in store selection ... is smaller than chapters, but every book seems worth your time and interesting, as if it were curated just for you. They're also able to order basically any book you'd like, so don't be shy about asking for a book you want but can't find. The store is clean, the shelves are tidy and the atmosphere is calming. As I checked out with Ishiguro's "Klara and the Sun" in hand, I had a nice chat with the person on cash about the book. Special note: their bags are also compostable. I really love the Bookshelf, and I can't wait for it's theatre to open again. It's a genuine part of what makes Guelph feel special and like home. Please support this local bookstore. Read more
