Such a wonderful and serendipitous stay. The MUST for book lovers in the English language (but not exclusively). We left with three books, exclusive Shakespeare and Co’s stamps on them and a big smile on our faces. We’ll definitely go back :)

A magical place where you can find beautiful english editions of books. It worth also just having a look around, feeling like suspended in time.
For me, one of the most beautiful insides of Paris.

I went back to Paris just for this place. The books they have on sale are top notch. The place itself is beautiful and made me feel at home. The staff is really knowledgeable, kind and helpful. Once you get into the shop, it's like you enter another world and this happens once you get on the 1st floor again. I could spend hours in there! Love love love it!

Busy but very cozy and worth visiting! Very old home-turn-bookstore and picturesque. They have limited seating if you'd like to read a book, particularly by the poetry section, where they have a cat that hangs out and sleeps next to you.

Iconic bookstore/coffee shop in the heart of Saint Michel; I come here occasionally, and especially if I'm looking for works by new/emerging writers. The coffee shop next door is as cute as they get, and the cappuccinos are well-made. That being said, the prices are pretty steep (€6 for a coconut latte), and sometimes their food selection looks a little tired. The staff is generally super friendly, however, and they all speak English exceptionally well. Since the outdoor seating is ample and the overall ambience (with a fantastic view of Notre Dame) is enjoyable, the pros definitely outweigh the cons. I'd recommend this as a must-see on your next Paris visit!
