This place is amazing and probably one of the best bookstores I've been to in my entire life! They have a great selection of fiction (especially Canadian fiction) and non fiction that you cannot get in any other bookstore in Ontario. Highly recommended, and i will definitely be coming back if i ever have the chance to visit Guelph again!

The Bookshelf, the Gondor of the defence of the brick and mortar book stores. Though really, this is more than a bookstore, it is the cultural icon of Guelph, complete with its attached Miijidaa, and the cinema upstairs (love this part of it as a student of film). I've been going to get my books and having great conversations with the staff since I was a kid growing up in Guelph, and it's still my benchmark for comparing all other independent bookstores against. Keep doing everything you're doing Bookshelf!

It's hard to run a relevant bookstore in this day and age but The Bookshelf does a good job. The selection is great and you can enjoy wandering.

Lovely bookstore with a wide variety of new and classic books. You can easily spend hours here as it's connected to two restaurants and a movie theater. I've seen a number of movies here and enjoyed the experience every time.
