Old Town Books

First time in there was a couple weeks ago, the inside is small but absolutely amazing. Noticed that pretty much all the shelves for the books have sticky notes from the staff or customers that have book recommendations. Really, really cool notebooks that have designs on the cover. One tricked me because I thought it was a fantasy novel but it was an empty notebook. Didn't buy everything I wanted to as I had gone in there to check their child section to get a new book for my son.

Good bookstore with a lovely staff. They offered to order any books we couldn’t find. Lovely kids area. The women’s bathroom had a changing table and step stool for toddlers.

My wife and I have been looking for a local bookstore. This place is directly off the road, with parking shared with the building next door. Parking is very limited but has nearby parking if needed and you are able to walk. The bookstore had that great bookstore smell when you walk in. They have the top books listed and descriptions listed on some of the books. They have some display tables, places to sit a while, a great children's section and clean restrooms. The workers there were helpful and nice. If you are looking to support local business and get some new books check this place out.

Love this shop! I have pre-ordered several books before they came out. They are always so helpful and kind! Love to see our money going to a locally owned shop like this!

Absolutely enjoyed the ambiance when my kids and I walked in! The owner was very cordial and they offer discounts to educators and military personnel!

We absolutely LOVED old town books!!! Its the perfect little nook for book lovers. The space is simple but elegant, they had a good selection of books, free coffee (with recyclable cups which I think is awesome) and their kids area is amazing. My kids loved sitting on the bean bag seats, and my oldest just sat and read and had a blast in there while I browsed the store. They have an outside sitting area which was really nice for a sunny fall day. The whole store was well decorated, along with the antique beautiful furniture pieces, the owner threw in her personal touch with pictures of famous novels hanging on the walls. I seriously love everything about the place. I use to love Hastings book store and my husband and I used to go on coffee dates there while I shopped for books. I've been missing a store similar to that, but Old Town Books is even better. It had a cozy and homey feel about it that I love, and it is officially my new favorite spot downtown.

I’ve come here a couple of times and love this place. They’re a great local business and are definitely a little charm of San Angelo. I recommend this place to anyone. They’re also great about getting books in if they don’t already have them. Come check them out!

What a fabulous find in this town. Such a wonderful selection of books. I enjoyed that the staff have made their recommendations with little hand written notes about what they love about certain books. Nice place to just sit back, relax and soak it all in. The staff are friendly and more than willing to share suggestions. Looking forward to my next literary find here.

What fun to browse this beautiful space! My husband enjoyed the complimentary coffee and sat comfortably by the fire while I selected a bany gift. Yes, they have a selection of onesies along witj many bags to match and the book too. Service canno be beat, if it is not in stock, the staff will order it for you. They also have wonderful cards for many occasions. It is a true gem!

Staff are all knowledgeable and friendly without being pushy. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the selection is great. They have all the newest top picks and are quick with recommendations if you welcome those! I have never met such genuinely happy, kind, inviting staff at a store in all my life. I can go in and browse for an hour and then only buy a bookmark and they don't mind at all. There's a great fireplace to sit next to, candy buckets out for snacks, free coffee and cocoa, and the staff are always happy to talk books. They're also great about doing community and local events and are very kid-friendly!

Loved it! Surprised at the great selection of books. Staff was knowledgeable and so friendly. Thank you for bringing books to San Angelo!
