Store is clearly stated on the door as Closed Saturdays and Sundays. Do not listen to Googles times they are open.

This might be my favourite bookstore ever. Wonderful choice of books on social and philosophical aspects of technology and science. Cosy places to sit and read. Also the music is nice.

Great spot to stop by in a rainy or snowy day. As you enter the bookstore you will see MIT press books at first sight. A lot of the titles were eye drawing.This store has nice journal and planner notebooks.The staff was friendly and I could feel their interest for books.

This is a great store but sadly, when you can buy cheaper on Amazon (even after a student discount) its just not worth it. Id love to support writers and artists but I am a student (and sadly cant afford to)

One of my favorite bookstores. Most books that are published are MIT Press only. Has a good selection of books on specialized topics so great for people very passionate about certain subjects. Fantastic clearance section as well.

Amazing book store. Great collection of books, especially on topics of technology and how it interacts with individuals, society/culture and the arts. Every section is small, but extremely well curated.

Review №13

Fantastic selection of books (and a large clearance section for cheaper but still great reads!) A great bookstore overall but readers with a deeper understanding or interest in a topic will be pleased to find books that are more specialized to their desires.

Review №15

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff members helped me to find the book I needed among the impressive collection. An amazing place to find only amazing books by MIT press and authors.

Review №16

Great bookstore, even better in the big new Mass Ave location. Much more than just MIT Press books -- though of course it carries all of those. Strong selections in cyber-culture, architecture, science and society, .... A fun place to browse. NOT the place for textbooks, reference books, bestsellers, fiction, etc. -- that would be the MIT Coop, still in Kendall Square.

I love this store, and have come close to missing flights out of Logan Airport because I find myself unable to tear myself away from it on the way into the Kendall Square T Station. Introduction to Algorithms by CLR is one of the most important books on my bookshelf. And they have a very cool, minimalist t-shirt too. I hope this place never goes out of business.

Fun bookstore if youre looking for random, academic books. Theyre not all textbooks or treatise, theyre plenty of books accessible to anyone. All the books are incredibly well-designed; they look and feel great in your hands.
