The Dusty Bookshelf - Manhattan

The world needs more places like dusty. The vibes are amazong, coffee is great, and the staff are kind. Love that they accept and resell used book donations. Support your local bookstore!

A very nice bookstore with a great atmosphere that I found on my way to the restaurant. All the clerks are very friendly. Inside they have some puzzles and some nice stations for sale. I enjoyed myself a lot as there were many books that I could not find in other bookstores. I did not have much time to read the books this time, but there were a few books that caught my attention, so I plan to visit again soon to purchase more books.

I had a great time at The Dusty Bookshelf, shopping with a little one. Their kids' section had a great selection, with many beloved books I recognized! It was definitely worth visiting.

Lovely place. If I lived in town I would spend a lot of time and money here.

Before the fire I went to this bookshop many times for the atmosphere, friendly service and of course amazing prices on variety of books. After there fire and finishing there renovations it took awhile but they are back to there normal self. With now two floors I had forgotten how good there prices where. They even said they are adding a food place up front. Which means no dog friendly after food which totally understandable. Can’t wait to visit again next time I’m in town.

Cozy. A perfect place to read and enjoy a coffee. I'm not even a huge book guy, but I found the place very alluring and welcoming. Try the White Fang coffee with your next book!

Good vibes, friendly staff, great selection, and atmosphere. I really enjoy that they are doing more events and the drink recommendations are always perfect!

OMG! This is bibliophile paradise! They have such a wide variety of new, old, vintage, antique, and collector books. I spent 3 hours in this store and was continually amazed at every corner.
The three people working there really know their stuff and are readers, too!! I always test a shop like this by asking 'What was the last books you read that made you: sit and think after? Speed read overnight? Want to read again?" Their answers will normally tell me how much they read, if they like reading, and usually send me to a book that I've never thought to pick up. These amazing people are PERFECT for their jobs! I left with so many books I can't wait to read, a few collectors items for my shelf, and a beautiful notebook to continue my own wistful thinkings.

Just a wonderful place. I purchased a book for my 2-year-old niece. The children's book section is great.

Very lovely place some great half priced books and used books along with new ones! Smell of fresh coffee hits you as soon as you come in warm air from the heating and plenty of space to sit! Other drinks in a little cabnit at the front as well she even opened mine for me :)

I always have a nice time here truly and wonderful mix of coffee and books. Keep up the good work.

This is a cute little bookstore with coffee and a loft. The books are inexpensive and the employees are wonderful. Definitely worth a visit!

I've been to the store a few times, before and after the remodel. The coffee and drinks are definitely an added bonus. The atmosphere is like no other book store I've been to. Great place for new and used books!

Cute little eclectic bookstore! They have a little bit of everything there- historical literature, sci-fi, classical, romance, poetry, plays, how to, etc... for all ages. They also have a little Cafe inside with a small offering of tasty treats. We will be back!

Great place for work learn and coffee over talks

I like this place. I tasted a Machiatto and was amazing. I am a book lover, but I suppose that for anyone the atmosphere of that bookstore is magical.

This is a must-go anytime I go to Manhattan. A fantastic array of books, and lots of other neat gifts such as puzzles, card games, tote bags, etc. It's also a very unsuspecting place to get a fantastic breakfast burrito and a cup of coffee. The staff are fantastic.

Such a cool space. Buy a book, bring a book, have some coffee, and just enjoy life for a minute. Bright and open with antique books, used books, and new books all mingled together. My new favorite place to stop for coffee!

Amazing atmosphere. Quintessential college town bookstore. Huge selection in both quantity and variety of genres. Sci-fi, mystery, biographical, informational, etc. They also have a small selection of pre-made food and some in store drinks that are always interesting and tasty! Staff are always kind and helpful!

Love their coffee. Such iconic part of Manhattan.
