    Such a lovely space of quiet to retreat to from the bustling areas of Cascais. All of the proceeds from book purchases go to an organization that helps children with Down syndrome. So sincere. So beautiful.

    Great bookstore for English and Portuguese books. Many creative gifts for book lovers, too. If in doubt, ask for book recommendations, and they will be happy to help.

    One of the most wonderful places for book lovers. There is an amazing selection of books in English, with some also in Italian, French, Spanish and German. They also have a lot of other interesting items such as games, socks, bags,… the environment is so cool!

    Excellent selection of English language books. Probably the best I've seen outside an English language country.

  • 3/5 Chris B. 7 months ago on Google
    Yes, a good selection of books but today the store was very unorganised. The children's section had limited categorisation, had piles of books on top of boxes of books so browsing was difficult. Many adult books mixed in with children's too. Sure the store looks cool, but it's overstocked and is in need of better curation.

    Beautiful selection of great books, multiple languages. You can find games, art works and a lot more.

    Beautifully curated literary and artistic book shop. Titles in several languages. Also some fun little gifts and cool posters. Impossible to leave without picking up something!

    I asked the worker for her favorite Portuguese author and got some very insightful recommendations. Really great store and knowledgeable staff.

    Best independent bookstore I spotted while traveling around Lisbon. Great books in Portuguese and English.

    The store is very cozy and cool. I spent time here with great interest. Atmospheric and a wonderful selection of books. Unfortunately, after some time I noticed an error in the receipt: I bought a book for 17 euros, and the receipt had an amount of 23.8 and indicated another book. The impression was a little spoiled, but I hope that the seller - a young girl - did it unintentionally.

    Lovely bookshop in the Cascais Citadel, selling Portuguese, English (and even some French) books and bits.. Worth a visit (or two!) book 📚 📖

    Absolutely loved this bookshop inside an old fortress. Super cute, great selection of books in English, and lots of fun goodies!

    Excellent bookshop, fun to visit and browse around. Thank you for recommending some excellent books to me, I really enjoyed them, especially ‘The Return’, so great to read that while IN Portugal!
