What an enjoyable experience. This is a quaint but, fully loaded bookstore. I truly enjoy going through used books for that past. What I have found in many other stores that carry not only new but also used the used are just an ignored section in a corner. Not here, they really take pride and care of this section of the store. I also enjoyed the variety of the new sections as well. They had more then just books! They also snuck in some very fun puzzles. Check out the photos to see all the fun. Let me also add the clerk was courteous.
Great local bookstore in a lovely area near the Pinellas trail in charming downtown Dunedin. It’s a beautiful shop with a nice selection of new and used books and lots of fun book-themed items like t-shirts, tote bags, and mugs. The staff is always friendly and welcoming.If they don’t have what you’re looking for in stock, the owner is happy to order it for you, and it’s a great chance to support a small business.
I Love this Store. Sometimes I leave My own store to go for a walk and usually end up stopping here. Staff and Owner (Boe) are all very Cool and nice people. I can always find a good book and I love that Book Store Feeling here. I love to support other small local businesses and therefore I do NOT buy from amazon. New books come in regularly and open late. Check it out.
I love this bookstore! If they dont have a book, theyll order it for you. They have a great mix of new, used, antique books as well as socks, mugs, puzzles and other gifts for book worms. The staff is friendly and helpful. Support independent book stores!
The owner is super cool. Helped me get 2 books I couldnt find in any other store. Plus the store itself is a charming place in a walkable neighborhood.
Wonderful charming bookstore and where I’ll go to get my books from now on.
Lots of interesting books available. Nice book store.
Small bookstore in the downtown area but well worth stopping in. They have used books here as well and even some novelty items. At the end of the day, its the customer service that makes this place so awesome. Boe (the owner) is a delight to talk to, and if youre looking for a book not in stock, you can email him and he can order it for you. In the era of big box stores, theyre the perfect reprieve to being just another person in line and deserve your business.
Great little bookstore in downtown Dunedin. Time it right and hit the Saturday street fair as well for an added bonus. Good selection and fair prices.
Ive been going to back in the day books for several years now and it was always a very pleasant experience. The environment, prices, and selection are the best I have come across! I shall be back!
Great little bookstore in the heart of downtown Dunedin. Great selection of books, games and puzzles. We stopped in a bought two puzzles and a few books on our visit in town. It feels so good to be able to support small businesses in the areas we visit. The staff was friendly and the store was calm, clean and organized.
Love this book store, and buy a book from here each year on my annual pilgrimage to the beach
A cute little bookstore in Dunedin. I love the creative ways they display some of their books. Its such a lovely place and I cant wait to go back and see whats new.
Great place with new and classic vintage books
The employee was so kind and helpful! The books are a mixed of used and new and prices vary as such. It was very sweet and quaint.
Nice selection of books, prices are reasonable.
Very adorable, unique book store, all kinds of interesting books loved it!!!
Amazing little book store. Absolutely charming, welcoming, and the selections were all so great! Can’t wait to come back.
Nice place and very nice people
Pleasant new and used bookstore. Excellent prices and friendly staff.
Great place! Boe, the owner is very helpful. I love that they will order any books they dont have. The store itself is very nice and comfortable. The staff is also very kind.
A great place to stop in when youre in Dunedin. I love their selection of books about our local area and Florida at large.
Great space and atmosphere, its worth a visit.
Great presentation of books, staff very helpful and excellent prices!
Love wandering Dunedin and going in this wonderful book store! Everything from unique gifts,a book for my granddaughter and great 1st editions .! So glad your here !
Thank God for real bookstores. Not huge but you can find something interesting. Great service. Shop local!
Good atmosphere
So many options for such an inexpensive price! With great help!
This place is truly amazing. I go here just to browse with nothing in particular that I am looking for and I walk out with amazing treasures. I find so many great books that I give as gifts to others; with a little note inside the book about the great bookshop where I bought the book! If you havent visited, do yourself a favor and check it out!
Its super special to me that I can travel just a couple of miles from my home and find a first-rate bookstore right in downtown Dunedin. As an avid reader who prefers to leave digital behind when Im reading for pleasure, Back in the Day Books really gives me everything I could want when shopping for books.From the latest novels to special editions and classics, the store is well organized and a joy to peruse. I love that new and gently used books are organized together by topic so that I can see all options without leaving a section. In addition to books, there are other items that book lovers enjoy as well. Salespeople are friendly and knowledgeable and the shop itself is modern, yet has a cozy feel.If you are looking for a great experience, be sure to check out Back in the Day the next time youre in or near Dunedin!
My dad got me a gift card to this store for Christmas. I absolutely adore this bookstore! These local bookstores are so difficult to find nowadays. There is no substitute for looking around in a friendly atmosphere and finding things you didnt even come in looking for. Thats one advantage over online shopping. Also, the employees at this bookstore are so incredibly nice and helpful. I love their selections, I love their store, I love the local artist work on the walls, I love absolutely everything about this store! It would be heartbreaking to see it go away. A great must see for tourists and locals alike! And I love the book collection Ive started. Thank you guys!
My favorite bookstore ever! The owner is kind and easy to talk to and the shop is so cozy. He is happy to order books not available in shop, on top of the wonderful selections in house. I go almost weekly to raid the children’s section for Elmo books for my daughter. We are never disappointed! Please support this Dunedin gem and the hard work/dedication the owners give it.
I love Back in the Day bookstore. Lots of unexpected finds, and if I dont find what Im looking for on their shelves, theyve always been happy to order it for me.
They have some amazing books here. I was happy to have the chance to buy several. Support great bookstores! We dont want to see a day when there are none left.
Wonderful cozy book store with a variety of new and used books.
This is about the best treasure in Dunedin which is full of treasures. We love Back in the Day Books. We have followed them to each location they have had over the years and are glad they are back close to home. They always have an interesting collection of books. It is a fresh, spacious area to browse at books that cannot be found elsewhere. So much better to be able to look at a book and browse its pages before buying. You cant do that online.
Great store with a wonderful selection or old, nearly old and new books. Prices are fair and the place has a nice atmosphere. At over an hour away from my house, I create excuses to visit.**The move to Dunedin was an excellent choice. The shop maintains its unique charm while adding to the character of the village. Its a longer drive for me, but totally worth it.
I drive all the way here from Land O Lakes to buy gifts for family because they have such unique, inspiring finds. Things you wouldnt even think to go online looking for. My aunt came to visit one year and fell in love with their collection of pulp mystery novels. The owner was able to talk knowledgeably about them and make recommendations. What great customer service! Not something youll find just anywhere at all.
This is a wonderful store with the pride of ownership that is missing in large non-personal stores. The feeling I have every time I go in is warmth and welcoming. The owner and staff are friendly and knowledgeable. I also love supporting small local businesses and it is so easy to support this one.
Quiet and helpful book shop. Owner is super helpful!
We love this store! Many rare old books here and located next to a beautiful path. Worth checking out if youre in the area.
Some very cook titles and I feel like the person who sets the books out was in my head. Some obscure and eclectic books. Worth a visit for sure.
Found a couple of books, not what I expected for a back in the day book store didnt have many of the old books from back in the day!
This place is a mandatory stop anytime we go to downtown Dunedin or when I need a gift. This past Christmas, I wanted to gift copies of a book to several family members. They ordered it for me, called me when they arrived and I picked them up. This took about five days and allowed me to keep my book dollars in Dunedin.In addition, they often have new books marked down 20%, a huge selection and awesome used books as well. They are kind and welcoming to all people, including This shop is a welcome addition to downtown Dunedin and a delightful place for all people who enjoy books.
I love this little bookstore. They always have something I need to read. The staff is helpful and makes suggestions when Im indecisive.
Last year for my Dapper themed Halloween wedding I picked all of the favors, pulp fiction books, from here. I am a local and they have saved me more than once now when my son needed a classic book for school. So many unique finds and they can order in whatever you want. They just got me copies of Issac Isamovs Foundation series. Plus they have puzzles, t-shirts and other fun items for gift. I really just love this shop!
Very friendly owner/staff. Huge variety of books in store and will even order a book for you if they do not carry it. Also sell games and puzzles. I purchase all of my books from here now- thank you!
Absolutely love this bookstore - what an asset to Dunedin. In an age of e-commerce, its so refreshing, and a gift, to have a great independent bookstore where you can browse and buy. Excellent customer service.
This is one of our familys favorite places to visit in downtown Dunedin. Books are fairly priced, and they always seem to have a unique selection - appealing to a wide variety of readers.As a bonus, their staff are all very knowledgable and are able to guide you in the right direction, if you dont know exactly what youre looking for.
Very tidy and well-curated. A great selection of books featured without an overwhelming inventory. Fair prices for an independent bookstore featuring both new and special/excellent used and vintage copies. Novelty items and gifts for bibliophiles here, too, including brands like Out-Of-Print.
As a writer and vorascious reader its nice to see an old-fashioned neighborhood bookstore, theyre a dying breed -- for a reason. Why buy here when you can buy on Amazon far cheaper, with far more variety, and cheaper than the big corporate stores like Barnes? I predict Back In wont be in business very long. Sad, but a reality in todays Web world. Hope Im wrong.
This place is awesome! The guy who owns this place was super nice and pointed us right to the Stephen king books that we asked about and he had a couple of them we have been looking for I definitely recommend this book store! Help me help you I wanna become your number one google tour guide please like or comment!
What a great little place. The selection of books is very interesting and the old dispersed with the new is brilliant. Prices cant be beat.
Coolest book store ever. Cult classics, alternative books, and lots of counter culture. Definitely a visit often type of place.
Great place! Bright, cheerful and fun. Excellent variety of books. So nice to have a real bookstore here!
Fantastic bookstore, and very well stocked!!!
Wonderful bookstore just opened in downtown Dunedin. It has a little bit of everything. I bought Sally Field’s new Memoir. I just moved to town and am thrilled to have an independent bookstore nearby.
A wonderful independent bookstore in the heart of delightful Dunedin!The owner & employees are helpful & friendly and they have a great selection of new & used books, as well as an interesting assortment of fun gift items like jig-saw puzzles, coloring books & pencils, literary t-shirts, etc.Great store!
Super cute bookstore on super cute Main St downtown Dunedin. The owner, Boe, is a pleasure to chat with. If he doesnt have what youre looking for, hell order it for you
Who doesnt love a good independent bookstore? Great location, fantastic selection. Highly recommend you pop in and check it out.
Boe, the owner, is as nice a guy as you will ever meet. He has a wonderful collection of books of all kinds for sale and always has time to talk with his customers.
Lovely bookstore in the heart of downtown. Wonderful selection thats expertly curated. Puzzles and more.
Great book store. Local authors and photography. My family really enjoyed shopping here.
Not very interesting books here. Just popular culture. No deep reads! Disappointed.
Great little book store w/contemporary and by gone books. Something for everyone! ❤️❤️
Cool shop. Lots of fun things to give as gifts. A little pricey for some of the books.
Great atmosphere, good service, tourist prices on some of the stuff, otherwise a very nice local bookstore
Everything your heart desires.
Very quaint. Brings back memories and makes you want to read
Really a nice little book store with a thoughtful collection. If you love book stores, this is the place for you!
This place is so much fun. Great selection and well organized. Make sure you check out the coloring books!
Really enjoyed this book store and the selection of books. Great place to find the book you didn’t realize you need.
Great local bookstore with very friendly and helpful staff.
Small, quaint, well organized bookstore with friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Awesome selection. I got 4 books.
What a great visit today! Forgot how much I really like this store. Even the building is wonderful. Super cool book selection, awesome gadgetry & hats to die for! Supa dupa folks, support this local business!
Wonderful place great to see a local real book store
A beautiful bookseller. Nice selection and appointments.
Great selection of books from each category. Like the SciFi section wasnt large but the selection of titles of tasteful. Asimov, Dick, Gibson...
Community meeting place, good customer service. Independent bookstores rock.
Great place. Unique selection of books
Very nice....thank you for putting a park there, good job
Its a great store if you are looking for old books or just really stuff that reminds you of the past. However, if your looking for used books or good prices on books this place is the same as Barnes and noble.
Great bookstore! Found some books that I wouldnt have found anywhere else. Great selection of rare and first edition book as well. Plus, the weekend I went there was a 30% OFF sale for all the books! Will be back again.
Loved this place. Great selection of books for a book worm like myself it is nice to touch and look through a book instead of downloading them on line.
A true treasure. You will find beautiful little gems in every corner, book selection is brilliant, folks are super nice ... love!
Fantastic selection of books for any genre.
Enjoyed browsing while waiting on my wife shopping at the wine store near by, bought some interesting books i didnt know i wanted. i will be back, and suggest other bookish types to check it out.
We love this local small business book shop. Great owner and great selection of books.
Spent an hour or so today whiling away at this cozy new bookstore in downtown Dunedin and chatting books, art, music, and first editions with owner Boe Rushing. Bought Neil Gaimans View From The Cheap Seats and a vintage Hardy Boys The Mystery of Cabin Island. Good Lord, I read that book over fifty years ago. Cant wait to re-read it. In the words of Gaiman, Fiction is the gateway drug for reading. The selection of books here is thoughtful, varied, and spans demographic and psychographic realms. I. Love. This. Place.
Great bookstore with unique and classic books.
Went to this store at around 8 o clock on a Thursday, and despite Google saying that the store is open, the store has paper covering the facade of the store. Seems that the store has closed for renovations or for good, there was no sign on the front and the door was locked.Edit** Moved it to 3 due to the circumstances and actually getting a response.**Thanks for the info! Wish yall could have set up temporary changes to the hours or something on Google, but I understand. Ill most likely change it higher upon seeing the location, browsing through the inventory, and getting to meet you. Definitely annoyed to have wasted my time coming prior to you being open, but I also understand that yall are probably under a ton of stress of opening up a new place, so I truthfully cant be very mad. I wish yall the best, and when I get a chance, I will come in! Thank you again for replying!
Great used and new book store.
Nice store, personalized service.Not enough Book Stores around.
Well worth a visit while strolling in Dunedin, Florida.
