    You can always find something worth gifting to others or yourself here. Great selection for kids, and if they don't have it, they can offer to order it for you. They're very accommodating and knowledgeable and up-to-date with local work.

    This is one of my favorite local Waukesha businesses. It has that cozy, local bookstore feel. The selection is amazing. We were looking for a specific book for a student my husband tutors, and the owner personally ordered the book, and called us when it came in. You just can’t beat the personal service, the selection of books for all age readers, the puzzles and the unique gifts. And they host a wonderful little winter farmer’s market.

    I stopped in last night with my daughter near closing time to pick up some last minute books for my son’s birthday. We were immediately helped and shown where all the books we were looking for a 6 year old were and more. Martha had a deep knowledge and love of books and authors. Their selection was impressive and the icing on the cake was the gift wrapping service. We got to hear a lot about the store’s history and how involved they are with the community. It was like stepping into another world. We will be back, city gems like this are so inspiring and important!

    Wonderful community centered independent bookstore run by two public school educators. Fantastic selection of books, toys and games of every sort.

    I come here primarily for the winter farmer's market but I've visited this place since I was a kid and love to see it still active! The winter farmer's market still has some produce available at Martha Merrill's too!

    Me and my girlfriend went in to use the bathroom. Although yes i feel bad as we didn't have any real interest about buying anything. The owner was rude saying how rude it was for people are age to do that. Im sorry waukesha does not have a lot of places to use the rest room. But making fun and being rude its gonna make me never want to go back in.

    Small store with a great selection of books. I was surprised with how many books I was able to find. Our child loved the children's book selection as well. The owners are wonderful and were able to order in our child's favorite book within a few days for less than other were charging. Lot of events happening here year round
