otis & clementine’s books, coffee, sometimes kitties

Lots of books and pleasant atmosphere and friendly cats.

Awesome little bookstore with the cutest kitties!!!

Amazing selection of books, very friendly and knowledgeable staff, excellent coffee, and kitties!! What could possibly be better?? I always end up leaving with a few books and a full heart. I found out about this place about 2 years ago, and it is consistently one of my favourite places to visit when I have some free time.

Lovely book store with friendly staff. I have found wonderful gems each visit. It is cute seeing Seamus the store cat lounging by the window.

One of the best bookstores I’ve ever been to! Staff is incredible, prices are right, and who doesn’t love being treated by Seamus?? I love a local business supporting a local cat shelter like Spay Day. You might just meet your next best friend while perusing books!

Thank you for supporting the community in so many ways! The books are amazing and a HUGE selection!! Love the cats of course also ;)

I recently stopped in looking for a few books with my grandson. He was so happy to meet the cutest little kitten. Very charming cozy space and the fact that they host adoptable cats and have a shop cat is just the cutest. We will be definitely be back.

Great bookstore! Friendly staff, cute cats, tasty cafe, and great selection of books!

The best staff. Coolest atmosphere.
Great selection of books.

Ignore the negative reviews below. Must he non-readers.

Coffee, books, and cats. Genius. My 11 year old daughter begged us to take her there on vacation to Halifax, and we're both so glad we did. The owner is so friendly and welcoming and makes an awesome expresso. Love, love, love this creative nook. We will be back for certain, and you should definitely visit as well.

This quaint little bookstore was very packed, with both books and people. I asked the owner how the pricing structure works and she pointed out a sign that explained how the 40% discount on all books would equate to real-life pricing on her offerings. My little book-dragon and I had over a dozen books lined up, only to find out that several of them were actually REGULAR price. When I asked why, she pointed to the bottom of the aforementioned sign and said "it's in yellow so no one ever really sees it, but any books with pencil numbers in the front cover are full price". She offered no reasonable explanation as to why she didn't tell me that when I asked about pricing, and instead just gave me a shrug. This was especially frustrating as we had been specifically speaking about the full price books when I asked her about the pricing, and I was very excited to be finding books I couldn't otherwise afford. I should mention that the new books were randomly placed on the shelves with the used books. We put the regular priced items back (as we had come looking for discounted books, not being able to afford new shelf price) and went on our way, sad about the lost titles. We felt deceived, like maybe the owner hopes people won't notice if the odd full priced book gets rung up in an otherwise discounted order. To be clear, I have no qualm about having regular priced items in a used book store. My problem is that they were mixed in with the rest, and that she specifically explained the pricing while not mentioning that some were regular price (including the ones we were inquiring about, intending to buy the full set)

The addition of kitties makes it the number one used bookstore in the HRM area

Great selection of books, great prices, warm atmosphere, friendly staff & gorgeous kittens. Was a lovely afternoon!

The cashier was being very rude and blowing off my concerns. There was also a cat up by where they make the food and I’m not sure if that’s sanitary…

Great lil store
