I've been coming to Gotham since I was a teenager. It's a pleasure to roam the dusty bookshelves. I remember one rainy afternoon sitting on the floor hunting for an out of print book, and finding it. The staff is extremely helpful and knowledgeable. They answer your questions sans snotty attitude of another bookstore I can think of on downtown Broadway. This is what reading is all about. It's all about the books - not the coffee, the greeting cards, the superstore. Just about the books and what's inside them.

Pros: History, Staff, Selection

Cons: a little bit of dust

Editor's Review

You won't find any lattes here, but this old-school bookseller has everything diehard bibliophiles could ask for.  See the full editorial review.
