Probably one of the coolest used bookstores you will ever visit. Four stories in an old mill along the Montague river. A wonderful place to spend a rainy day in an armchair reading a vintage art book or old classic. “There is great food and drink all day and deep into the night at the astonishing Lady Killigrew Cafe. And downstairs is the fantastic Alvah Stone Restaurant and Bar”
