    Very small and awkwardly shaped (it’s a parallelogram of sorts) and probably should be bigger since the nearest Indigo is in east Ajax or Scarborough. Though I suppose Coles is typically smaller anyway. They have a decent selection for the size but likely not going to find everything you’re looking for. This is especially true for toys, gifts, things that aren’t just books. Staff are polite and the place is clean and organized, just more cramped for my liking.

    I wanted to quickly say thank you to the welcoming customer service from a young woman who assisted me last week in store. I walked in looking for a great recommendation for a specific genre, fantasy series, and she walked me through various books & briefly summarized them. I ended up buying A Touch of Darkness because of her! Thank you - I loved the book.

    Enjoyed my visit to this book store. It's good to go into a real book store once in a while. Staff were available when I had a question. Located in Pickering Town Centre.

    Good store. Helpful staff, with limited selection. They carry a smaller selection of items in each of the departments. Departments include, books, magazines, toys, giftware, etc. Definitely worth a look if you're at the Pickering Town Centre.

    Today's bookstores are no longer just books, there's games and stationery and a variety of interesting assorted items. I love reading and still like the feeling of paper even though I read on my phone and tablet. Great place to find that book you've been meaning to read.

    Employees not only greeted us but came by to check on us as we were looking through the aisles. Gave stellar recommendations as well! Clearly they have a team who loves literature and isn't just "working" at a bookstore

    If u spend more than a minute in an aisle,, the staff thinks you gonna steal something,,,, they need to upgrade their customer service tbh

    Very helpful staff, who understand the difference between being helpfully nearby and hovering. While the selection is not outstanding, the ability to order in nearly everything is appreciated, and only a sociopath would demand a mall store to have copies of every possible object anyone might desire.

    The sales people are not helpful. There is not much of a selection of educational books for young children.

  • 5/5 Princess Y. 5 years ago on Google
    It's the perfect place to browse through series of books whether looking for a new prospect of life, to thrilling novels for an interesting gift or read. They have a good variety.

    Cute little place in a bigger mall. There was a great selection and the staff was friendly. Would absolutely go again next time I'm in the area.

  • 5/5 D A. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Tomide S. 3 years ago on Google
    Love this coles location. They have a great selection of items and I find the staff to be very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable.

  • 3/5 Stuart W. 2 years ago on Google
    Limited stock due to the size of the store, just head to a Chapters location instead

  • 5/5 Sarah U. 2 years ago on Google
    Small store but super organized. Staff was also very helpful in finding books both on shelf and online even they weren't in store

  • 5/5 Red A. 3 years ago on Google
    I love the customer service provided. They were phenomenal. I only found 1 of the 3 books i wanted, but i would give 10 of 5 for service.

    was greeted politely by the staff. if you’re looking to start a manga series, coles has a generous amount of volumes unlike some book stores. :D

    Just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to Dee, who answered the phone when I called. She was able to find a copy of a book I was looking for and “held it” for me to pick up. I was just there to pick my book up, and Dee was as lovely as she sounded on the phone when I called! Now THAT is amazing customer service in my eyes!! You are wonderful Dee… keep that smile going…you made my day!! Cheers
