It's simply the best Indigo in the city - huge, nicely located, always something going on (book signings, etc). My favourite place to kill time before the movies! (It's right beside the Varsity Theatre and the Bloor Street Diner.)

Mainly because I have their membership card... gets me like 10% off all in store purchases... their staff leave you alone...possible as they don't know very much... but generally I know what I want and can browse unbothered for as long as I like and have a starbucks venti herbal tea...

It's big! Staff is always helpful. Well stocked. Clean. You can find good deals. Love flipping through magazines. You can find a spot to read.

small and independent presses, a cultural studies section with a wide array of international magazines. well organized. they seriously have everything that's missing at more corporate bookstores.

you can spend hours there without noticing it; don't be fooled though, it's still owned by Chapters/Indigo!

Their kids section has cool books without being babyish (but they still have good books for babies, just cool ones)

They have a giant selection. I love browsing their shelves and making a list of all the books I want to read. Everytime i'm there, it seems my list gets longer and longer. Worth visiting.

Great selection of literature. New and used elementary school and high school textbooks. They can order pretty much anything as long as you have the information necessary (eg. author, ISBN). Service is friendly and they will help you find whatever you need. Close to TTC (Route 60 - Steeles W)

The reading rack for magazines is ideal for perusing, and the book and home accessory displays always showcase great finds! A really warm and friendly atmosphere - it's especially buzzing later at night.
