Owner was incredibly rude, unprofessional, and cheap. I went in hoping to sell a rare vhs (not expecting them to give me a fair price) AND HE OFFERS ME $2! When I try to explain that this vhs goes for quite a bit more money he says people can just watch it on Tubi. When you own a book/record/vhs store I figured he would understand why people are actually buying this physical media, of course you can go watch or listen to any of it online for free. Clearly he was just trying to rip me off. their records and vhs are really overpriced especially for the conditions they are in, and right before I left he tried to say all his vhs tapes in store are $5-$10 which is just a lie, I saw many for over $30 and I don’t remember for sure but I believe I saw some over $50. The owner is a liar and a scam artist, I will not give them my business again and I suggest no one else does for your own good!

Huge variety of books available. The owner represents ideas of all kinds in the shop and does not display bias of concepts. Reasonable pricing and good organization. It’s everything a book store should be.

I'm so happy to have found this bookstore. I needed an escape from the crowds and this was the perfect oasis. I got a few books and I can't wait to read them. If I'm in the area again, I'll definitely come back. The cashier was so nice and patient with me. I really appreciated their kindness. I wish there were more bookstores like this one where I live. Take advantage of the opportunity to visit this one. You won't be sorry.

Waiting for a table at Honeypie's new location, we were recommended a stroll through the neighborhood until our text arrived that a table was available. We were drawn in by the inviting open door, and we're surprised when we entered. They have such a massive selection; when we walked in we had no idea what we were getting into! I tucked in right away to the first corner, filled with graphic novels. We barely made it to the rest of the store when our table was ready. Looking forward to finding more time to make our way back there and through their vast selection. Prices are higher than one might anticipate, but the selection is varied and wide, and the quality is high. Well worth the cost.
