San Rafael, I love this bookstore as much as I ever did. The fact that I havent found one to match in DC and that I have actually made time to visit this bookstore when visiting family/friends in Boston is a testament to its charm! :)

Love this bookstore. If visiting San Rafael it is worth it to try to find a place to park and walk over to browse and get a coffee. Great selection of books and mystic/spiritual items

Friendly space and people here. Appears to be good for the community of San Raphael. I like the rainbow cafe that is connected to the store because of the cozy work spaces. They sell Kratom chocolate here which Ive never before seen in a cafe. I wonder what thats like.

I know what the secret is! They openly dont care about customers, books or spirituality. What a waste of a wonderful space. The vegan cafe was incredible. Now there are crickets...the sales associate offers no help in finding books and is very rude.

Cafe is gone but still a great place to kick back and grab a book

Review №14

Excellent selection of metaphysical literature, incense and massive statues from the days of yore. You might run into a classic marinite who has transcended the necessity to appear sane and relatable. Good little bucha cafe where you can stare at the official woke demographic of San Rafael.

Wonderfully funky hippy hangout with soooo many great esoteric books and a temple room to meditate in! Also awesome new age and kirtan bands on stage! I love coming in for quiet reading, browsing and relaxing. Also can get a chair massage if you time it right. I love this place!

I dont understand why the Health Department has not closed this musty moldy place with ceiling plaster coming down, broken windows, bathroom is illegal, someone is paying off someone. Could be a wonderful place, but filthy and overpriced metaphysical book/curio shop.

Weirdest place on Earth? A portal to another dimension? You be the judge. No judgment allowed.

I like the subject matter of the store. Its about the philosophy of life. This store doesnt stock best seller fiction or nonfiction books.

A comfortable space to ponder Awakening amidst the book, or, get a cuppa sugar chai.
