Flintridge Bookstore - La Cañada Flintridge, California

Maxy B.

A lovely little bookstore with a few gift and card accoutrements at the front and a large selection of books to peruse.

The clerk (owner?) that I dealt with when I went in was highly personable and assisted me in getting a book they didn't have in stock. It took only a few days for them to get it in! Amazon may have done it faster, but the pricing and small shop experience definitely outweighs that. Plus I was able to find a really cute collection of cards that I bought for my siblings and niece and nephews birthdays coming up.

Plus there's a Dobby behind the counter and a little hide and seek game for kids who visit the store (see the counter for the details, I forgot them). Nothing beats that local shop experience.

My wife and I love this store for its very well curated section of children's books. Every time we come to La Canada we make a point of visiting Flintridge Bookstore.

Personally, I miss the old, larger location. The new store is very crowded, but there is a great selection of books and still a great staff.

Support that small, local business

Cool Bookstore but I really only came for coffee or tea. I walked here only to find out they no longer serve drinks here, just books. 👍🏽 it’d be nice if I knew beforehand! Otherwise great spot if you’re looking for BOOKS, Games or other knickknacks !👍🏽👍🏽

It's a very nice bookstore with books of various interests. I was only visiting my daughter briefly so I did not really spend alot of time there. I did looked at the children's section which carried some unique books and gifts. Book stores are almost extinct these days so it's very nice to still see one!

I love the place, a beautiful setting with an eclectic inventory of products. A great selection of books including a local source for those books your kids need for school tomorrow. They have a lot of events to bring the community and book lovers together. Elementary school students enjoy the reading clubs they support. All this and great coffee too!

This is the best bookstore I've been to my whole life!!! It has the best staff! I went there today and there was this lady who helped me a lot and I couldn't stop thinking about how kind and book loving she was!!! I have not only bought a book but have also been informed about many story origins and how stories have evolved and changes after years. I felt like she was the only person who understood my and my love of fairy tales. She is the best person that I have met in my life! Anyways long story short this is the best bookstore and be sure to visit 🙂

This is the most wonderful little coffee shop. The staff are very friendly and helpful. There is plenty of space to sit and enjoy one of their drinks, a nice selection of books to browse. It opens a little late in the morning for early coffee runs. But once it is open, it's the perfect spot to enjoy a latte and pick up some new reading material.
