Overall, Tombolo Books is definitely a beautiful gem of a place to visit in St. Petersburg.
Cutest little indie bookseller! The staff is incredible - passionate about books and have great recommendations based on what you like to read. Shop is TINY but everyone is so nice, just feels cozy. Wonderful selection of new books from popular to indie to local. Manager was very cool about letting us come through and browse with our dogs. Hands-down favorite book shop in St Pete!!
I went here on my birthday and was very thrilled to be in the store to shop for some new books in a while. the coziness and the LGBTQ+ Vibes of the store and the fact that they had a coffee store next to it made it even more perfect. One of the clerks working their helped me find some books and graphic novels I liked to purchase unfortunately I could not get the name of hers but she was so helpful to me. Will most definitely come again and maybe have brunch after I shop! 😊
A small lovely bookstore with friendly environment and staff.
I adore this place!! It's so welcoming and friendly and they have a great selection of books (as well as an online ordering system!!) They have great events throughout the year as well. Can't recommend highly enough!
Such a cute small bookstore that harkens back memories of small bookstores with wall to wall book shelves. The staff are friendly and eager to welcome you in and help. This is how bookstores are meant to be experienced. Their back patio is shred with a juice, smoothie place as well another coffee store. The patio is very welcoming to sit, drink, and read your purchased book. The interior is warmly lit highlighting the stars - books.
It can get a bit stuffy with a lot of people inside, so best to come in a weekday where you are highly like to find the place lot more welcoming to wonder around and pick up your choice of reading pleasure. I found the brown paper wrapped mystery book section that's titled - A blind date with a book w/ just a couple lines that hint at what that book could be about. Very creative spin.
Tombolo books is a must visit for book lovers.
The best place to go on any given day. Is it raining? Go get a book to pass the time. Is it super hot out? Go get a book in their AC. Bored? Book. The staff is always super friendly, and the books aren't horrendously priced. They're also nestled against TWO great coffee/beverage shops. Could you ask for more?
We’ve stopped in a couple different times when visiting family in the area over the years and it is delightful every time! Good book selection that is well organized, lots of staff recommendations which I find helpful, and the coffeehouse and juice bar they share a parking lot with are also great. Worth a stop
