A really treasure of a second-hand book store. All proceeds go to charity and everyone in the shop are volunteers, who are all very happy to help you. You are able to browse at leasure. The price of books are absolute bargains, besides everything goes to a good cause. You can also donate your old books to the shop. I have used this shop for years now and I am always impressed by it.
I have heard so many good things about this place. Incredible bargains on real books. Special finds for all ages. This shop has a real booky-type smell. And to get your hands on a good book becomes within your reach. So many books can be found here at really reasonable prices. It is well worth coming here for an excellent bargain on books!
I love a bargain and I love searching for hidden treasures. My brother was visiting from Australia and wanted to visit one of his favourite old haunts. We shared such a lovely time pawing through tomes and uncovering amazing books at yesteryear prices.
Of all the bookstores, this one stands out. With a wide selection, kind staff, comfortable organisation and the store being hidden enough to make it just a little exciting, I enjoy it, and they will be seeing me again.
We regularly drop off our books here. The staff are super friendly and helpful. We also find great gems, but you need time to sift through the books :) Definitely needs a cleanup and some sort of order.
Nothing beats the smell of old books..... Can sit there for days and never get bored with their various titles, most of which is long time out of print. And all proceeds goes to charity. Support them
Lovely ladies at the shop❤️, was so friendly and helpful, would highly recommend to anyone who loves their books or needs something for the kidsand prices are reasonable n cheap …
The store is located in Kenilworth 18 glossderry road, and no longer in Claremont opposite Cavendish Search Cafda book warehouse instead for directions to the new store.
Best second hand bookstore in Cape Town, hands down. Biggest selection, cheapest prices, nicest people. Cannot recommend enough. AND it's all for a good cause...
They are such an amazing organisation. No matter what you want to donate, books clothing crockery they will treasure it to sell to raise funds for those in need
It is FULL of books but incredibly disorganised. The staff were very friendly and did try to help find our titles - unfortunately to no avail
Hi really good store for books .I would like to ask one thing , have you guys moved from Claremont? May I know where have you guys moved?
Very quaint little place. Lovely and helpful owner. Very neat and a wide range of books to choose from. Worth the trip for any book worm.
Great second hand book store. Large collection but not as much turnover as there once was so not much new stock. Deff worth a visit tho.
They have an excellent selection of secondhand books. Very affordable. Plus, the proceeds go towards a good cause. Friendly staff.
I requested that they keep a book aside for me and they kept a totally different one. The book names don't even sound the same
I have been buying books from CAFDA bookshops in various venues for 6 decades. Such good value and a great range available.
Many many great books, fact and fiction, really helpful... not staff more like Librarians. The prices are a bargain. …
I went no further than 'popular fiction' near the entrance and found some great reads. Definitely worth a visit.
