Must stop by this cute neighborhood bookstore if you are in this neighborhood! Especially if you have a kid or a cute dog with you on your trip. 1. Extremely clean and Covid safe. There’s a little sanitizer station before you enter. Only 4 guests allowed in store. 2. Great atmosphere: sweet music playing while you browse. 3. They curate the most amazing selections of books! Very organized. Staff is extremely helpful and happy that you are in their store. 4. You must see the collections of kids books and toys available! 5. Icing on the cake: they wrap your books for you with the most beautiful wrapping paper. Your four legged friends get treats as well! 6. They also provide curbside service and make local deliveries.

This is my neighborhood bookstore, and I couldn't be happier. The staff always make me feel super comfortable and have great answers to any book related questions you may have. It's sold as a community shop, and it comes through on that promise every time. Pro tip - if you give them your name and number, you're part of the "club" and you get $5.00 back on every $100.00 you spend. Here we go, books!

I wasn't sure which book to pick out of those I selected. I asked the staff, and then ended up with the owner of Christopher's Books asking me questions about my favorite books and giving me her personal reccomenadtion of 5 amazing novels and I can honestly say i ended up with my #1 book that I've ever read!! Amazingly helpful staff, diverse repertoire, fantastic ambiance. Buy here, trust me.

10/10 experience visiting here while Lael was working the store! When she told me the book I was looking for had just been sold, she took the time to suggest other memoirs that she herself loved or wanted to read. I ended up picking Somebody's Daughter from her recommendations, and it's become one of my favorite reads. I'd visit again just to say hi and ask Lael for more recommendations. :)

A very charming little bookstore. The shelf closest to the door has what the staff are currently reading. Everyone was very friendly and chatty, giving the store a very cozy atmosphere. The selection is what you would expect for a bookstore of this size. It does get a little crowded but definitely worth a peek if you're in the area.

Maybe the loudest bookstore I've ever been in (loud music!), but well-curated! Lots of variety and diversity in the selection, and a nice big "staff picks" section with thoughtful recommendation notes :) also some cool greeting cards, literary gifts, tarot card decks, notebooks, etc!

Friendly neighborhood bookstore in the dogpatch area carrying a wide range of selections. I like to browse through their top picks, and usually it's a good read! If there are books that you are looking for and they don't carry, they are more than happy to place it on order for you.

This is a neighborhood favorite! They have a great selection of books and atmosphere perfect for browsing and finding your next favorite read. You can actually email them if you’d like a specific book. If they don’t have it in their inventory they can order it for you directly.

Great bookstore. It has a great selection on every topic, and an extensive YA and children's book section. They also take in orders over the phone or over email; the turnaround is within days. The staff is knowledgeable and very friendly. 10/10 will continue to patron there

I don't know how they stay in business, but I'm glad they do. This store is like something from a 1950's time warp: great selection of books, especially for kids and young adults. Friendly staff. Will order any book for you. Perfect neighborhood store.

Great neighborhood bookstore. Knowledgeable and friendly staff, nice selection and environment to browse. I stopped by after getting coffee at nearby Farley's (also great) and was trying to remember an author that a friend recommended. The

Cozy family-run bookstore with a fantastic selection of kids books. They stock an impressive variety for all ages in a neat corner of the shop. The shelves are full and well organized. Their knowledgeable & friendly staff were able to help

This company is outstanding. Needed a bulk order for a local book club, and they were able to quickly give me a quote with a discount (less than 24 hours). Once we agreed to the price, they had the books by the next day and delivered them

Cute neighborhood store with a great collection. Especially enjoy the little chats and insightful comments with the proprietor on authors and books while shopping here. Visit to Christopher's is an absolute must for the bibliophile in you.

Really nice bookstore. Small space yet extensive selections. Maybe it's just me? I sensed slight preference for Japanese literature. Nice recommendation books, got my first Yukio Mishima book, that I have been avoiding for a long time...

My favorite sf bookstore!! Their selection is fantastic (and if they don’t have it, they’ll order it for you). Everyone who works here is very amiable and well-read, and seemingly always happy to share a recommendation

A fantastic little neighborhood shop. Its a perfect spot to find something new to read or pick up a good gift for a friend. In a world of digital readers, nothing beats the real thing. Support your local book store!

The staff was very nice and gave me a discount the only problem was the cashier didn't seem to notice I was ready to check out since he was very into his book but I would go there anytime over Barnes and noble.

Cute book store with a great selection of classics and new reads. Located in a popular corner with other cafes and stores all around it be sure to check out the cards and little mementos this shop offers.

Love this neighborhood bookstore! They have a great selection of current fiction and non-fiction and solid YA and graphic novels to book. They will also order for you anything they don't carry.

sweetest little neighborhood bookstore - great selection! they will also order book(s) for you if they don’t have them in stock and i’m always impressed how quickly they arrive. love this place

Love this book store, good selection and they can order anything in too. Staff also helpful. Making a point of buying my books locally here rather than online. You can't beat a proper book!!

❤️❤️❤️ love this tiny local book shop. If they don't have a book, they can order it easily and I've had great experiences both browsing and ordering. Support your local bookstore!

Great spot in the Mission District, welcoming and warm bookstore with a good selection of reads. They will happily order books for you upon request. Recommend stopping by!

Love this local bookstore. Although it is small in space, it's always a friendly place to visit on the weekend. I've found some of my favorite books at this store.

Great neighborhood bookstore with extensive selection. Friendly staff always willing to suggest a book and order what they don't currently have in stock.

A perfect book shop. Small, but meticulously curated. I want to read all their books! Fortunately the friendly staff can answer all my tough questions!

Great little shop. I called on Sunday to ask if they had a book in stock. They didn't, but they ordered it for me and had it in the store by Tuesday.

They have a great selection, and several times I have received a personalized recommendation that has been absolutely fantastic. I visit often.

lovely local bookstore; they'll order books for you (just send them an email) and get it for you in days (or faster); support them if you can.

Really cute little local bookstore with a surprising good selection. Definitely worth a look before you go to Amazon to get the latest tome.

Personal help in finding books that I may like and love ordering books from them, too. Cozy and lots of good restaurants nearby.

Love the book selection artsy, fantasy, philosophy & more. Perfect place for person who love to read …

Amazing book selection, and a knowledgeable staff who really love books. Worth making a major detour to check this place out.

They helped me find an out of print book. Very friendly! Better than buying on line. It's good to go to a real bookstore

Delightful bookstore! Wonderful selection, solid recommendations and a very friendly bookseller. I can’t wait to return.

This is a magical bookstore that is tiny, warm, friendly and always has something you didn't know you need to read.

Well, good book store in general, but I prefer second hand book store and this one is definitely not my type.

Good selection of books in a small space. They can order anything you can't find. I really like the staff.

Great neighborhood spot with amazing curation. I always find an unexpected but fascinating book here!
