R D Chisholm Stationery-Books

They have a great selection of books and role-playing board games. I talked with a male employee about the games, and he had so much knowledge about the appropriate age, skill levels, and rules. Some have many different versions, and he knew them all. Very helpful and informative staff. This is a family run small business that we can support by shopping local.

Great local shop that has a bit of everything, staff is very helpful and they have a huge catalog in which you can order from.

One of my favourite stores in Kentville. I love the old fashioned feel and the variety of what they offer. One of the few places you can buy pens, markers and pencils individually; which is mainly the reason for my visits here. When you're in need of a gift for someone, you may just find it here! They carry a vast assortment of gift items, along with books, magazines, cards, kids toys and tons of stationary. Very friendly staff!

We live locally and this is our kiddos favorite store. They have a great selection of board games and Lego. The staff is very helpful and kind.

It is such a great one stop shop for gifting needs. I love walking in an be able to re stock our art supply but also buy quality play products without having to leave our community. Great mark downs and reasonable prices. I enjoy the huge assortment of local literature and the no tax lego.

Very clean and well stocked store. They have a bit of everything and it was very cool! I went in looking for boardgames and found a game that was out of print and hard to find. Best part was an amazing price. I can only dream of what their stock room has :) Highly recommend stopping by if you are looking for boardgames, kids toys or office supplies.

Love the selection of quality toys and books! Plus all the things I need for my home office!!!! My go to for gifts!!! Love supporting a local business!

Stores like this remind me of the good old days before big box places invaded. Friendly staff, family owned. I am not a huge board gamer, but they have a whole aisle dedicated to these, on the way to a selection of books to rival any best seller section in the big name book shops. They also have great educational toys, magazines, office supplies, and gift ideas. I also love the convenient postal outlet. It's a store I enjoy going to just to browse, and I never do that elsewhere.

The grandkids rated this store as the best Lego store ever & and tax-free.

Absolutely love this amazing store. It has such a variety of QUALITY products, and just as importantly, it's a LOCAL family owned business! The staff are always extremely friendly and are more than willing to go out of their way to make sure you find what you are looking for. This is my go-to store for birthday presents, and many of my boys Christmas presents came from here this year, as well as many previous years. Not only do they have great prices on brand names like Lego, Thomas, etc, they offer a large variety of toys that aren't just fun, but educational! I would recommend this store to anyone:)

Great selection of toys, cards and books and other gift items. The staff are tremendous! Friendly and helpful. I love being able to shop in Kentville for birthdays and special occasions at a family owned shop. PLUS there is a Canada Post counter in the shop. So convenient!

I've been shopping at the store since I was a small child going in with my grandmother. They always have a wide collection of some very interesting things. It's not exactly the cheapest place to go shopping when you're in town but it is definitely one of the more interesting places to go shopping because you never know what you're going to find or they could have some ridiculously great deal on some children's toys or Lego

Local family run business who always have something in store you'll want to bring home. They are no go-to for books, board games, puzzles and toys!

THE best place for games and puzzles. Amazing staff, incredible selection of unique games. The only problem is wanting to buy ALL the games! Plus they have lots of other gifts, toys, Lego, books, greeting cards etc.

Really neat store with an excellent assortment of office supplies and board games. The store is cramped because they are densly fitting so much merchandise into their limited space. The staff is cheerful and friendly and the prices are reasonable, but really, you are going there for the great selection.

This is a throw back to a time before big box stores changed the retail landscape. They have a great selection of books, toys, gifts, cards and office supplies. Prices are reasonable and is a very friendly space.

Amazing store...has alot of charm and a little bit of everything!!

What I love about this place is the great selection of pens and notebooks. Plus you can take the pens for a test drive! A big plus for the note book side is that they are the only ones who stock certain size I use.

Also if you need a Canada post that's there too.

I love this store. Everything is high quality and the variety is wonderful. Staff are helpful - not pushy, and it has the best feel. Makes me feel like a kid in the most amazing book store!

Chisholms is a gem of a store, carrying everything you might need for a special gift for someone, or that Lego set for a birthday! From books to stationery, they have it all!
As a local author, I especially love working with Chisholms who carries my novel, and is so supportive!
