Ok, let's get this out of the way first - Elliot Bay Books is not going to be your cheapest bookstore. Sorry, that's a fact.
But that's the only thing not going for it. Filling up a large corner lot in an old Pioneer Square brick building, the place is a joy to walk through. Brick arches, books stacked on high shelves, creaky wooden floors, bustling customers, amazingly broad selection, locally owned, regular book readings.... it's a great store.
