Bird & Beckett Books & Records

Terrific selection, helpful owner and staff, great overall vibe. Even better than the book selection, they present top-notch local jazz performers several nights a week. I'd give this 6 stars if it was allowed - check this place out!

The book selection here is wonderful as is the warmth of the owner. Eric brings a unique personality to the space that is apparent in both the selection of books and the regular jazz performances at the venue. Here you can stumble upon the likes of Paul Combs's quartet performing Tadd Dameron's music and sharing anecdotes of how it influenced the careers of Dizzy Gillespie and John Coltrane. This is a one-of-a-kind store with an unmatched experience.

Great little independent bookstore. Fun to browse, good selection of books, and they were nice enough to offer to order a book for me when they didn't have it in store.

Far and away, one of the best bookstores in the city and maybe ever. It feels like every book-lover’s dream library, shelves that go on forever with countless topics and authors. I cannot wait to go back. (Plus, they have live jazz shows after hours - incredible!)
