  • Kristen Sudnik

I’ve been wanting to visit this bookstore for awhile now, and finally had the opportunity today. What a treasure! Joy emanates from this beautiful space- it is inviting, warm and well laid out. The staff is kind and knowledgeable. You can tell that the wide variety of books and other locally made items are chosen with great care. The thoughtfully stacked shelves are filled with personal touches and recommendations. The store holds a book club, other events and even welcomes doggies. It is a welcoming community and my new favorite place

An amazing bookstore with a great selection. I came across this bookstore while walking down Lincoln Avenue searching for bookstores, and I’m so glad I came! I initially wasn’t aware that this place opened recently because there were a good amount of customers and the atmosphere felt like they’ve been part of the neighborhood for a while. Such a cute, cozy atmosphere with great staff. Looking forward to returning in the future!

  • Elena Gearhart

What a fantastic bookstore and small business to support. They are great at what they do (books), but they're more than just books. They're making themselves a cozy community spot, with book clubs, story times, and more. The owners are so lovely as well, always happy to help you find what you're looking for. Might I also add that the shop is adorable inside. Thank you Three Avenues, we need more small businesses like you!

I've loved this place since the day it opened. They have a peaceful, cozy vibe with friendly & knowledgeable owners. The book selection is thoughtful and they're always rotating things in and out, sometimes in response to customer feedback! They also host events sometimes - this is a jazz combo that performed on a Sunday afternoon. I love it here and am thankful that they exist.

  • Kyle

A fantastic book store. Not a huge selection, but it is well curated. It's not just popular new books, it's not just classics, but one look at a shelf and you can tell that the titles available were selected with care and purpose. I've been to many bookshops and Three Avenues definitely has one of the best selections I've ever seen. Thank you!

  • Lisa Nuccio

I love this bookstore! Already been in here twice since its opening. They have such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. They love having my dog wander around and kindly give him treats. Such a great book selection, cozy atmosphere and other beautiful gifts like nice candles. I have been waiting for a family run bookstore in the area!

  • Dave

Three Avenues Bookshop is a much needed and welcome addition to the neighborhood. The open layout makes it easy to quickly find what you're looking for and displays are well organized. The owners are warm and personable, each time that I've stopped by they've been very helpful with recommendations.

  • Jacob Kosior

Three Avenues is the perfect neighborhood bookstore. They have a great array of books with a mix of popular titles and ones you haven’t heard of yet, but will surely enjoy. Every time I shop I end up finding a great book I hadn’t heard about before shopping at Three Avenues.

  • B Green

Love this quaint family owned bookstore! It's very warm and inviting. Excellent selection of books. Seating if you would like to hang out for a while. Also, it has a cozy area for the kiddos. Be sure to stop in and consider joining their book club.

  • Tim pareti

The owners are warm and friendly. I've been to a lot of bookstores over the years and this one rates at the top. I noticed the customers were bright and cheery, too. My wife and I are now big fans of Three Avenue Bookshop (TAB).

  • Dharti Shah

This bookshop feels like home. The staff is so warm and kind and there are so many special touches. My favorite element was the post it notes the staff wrote reviewing their favorite books. I can't wait to go back!

  • Leah Thallemer

I absolutely love every book that they have suggested to me. This family owned small business is absolutely amazing and perfect for the neighborhood. You guys are the absolute best! Keep up the great work!

  • Sarah

Love small businesses and this store and it's location are no exception. Being able to get gift cards is great, I just wish there was a larger selection, but I completely understand it's about space.

  • Madeline Holland

Carefully curated selections, a cozy and bright atmosphere, chairs to lounge on while taking a book for a test drive… I love this place! There will definitely be MANY more visits in the future.

  • Donna Yuen

Great addition to the neighborhood. Children's section is cozy and plentiful. Dog friendly. Can't wait to see what events they may have or if there will be outdoor seating in the spring/summer.

  • Lucy M

This shop is lovely. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. The selection of books was very thoughtful and appealing to someone looking to pick out a classic or something brand new.
