Under the Volcano Books: what do users think?
B Kozlak: I really love this place. Book selection is fantastic- I went in with a bit of list and the owner had quite of few of the things I was looking for. (Italo Calvino and Hermann Hesse) Decent poetry section as well, and some vintage gems with inscriptions in them that are just kind of rad to hold and think about how many hands have held said book in its lifetime. (Puke. I know. But this is a used bookstore review.) It is cash only and a little on the pricier side but…it’s Mexico and the books are in English so I feel that complaint doesn’t hold much weight.
Samantha Castro: Good selection of English books at affordable prices. They only take cash so come prepared. The book shop is on the second floor, there is a cool bar downstairs.
A.T: I’m confused by the good reviews 🙄😅 the books are in alphabetical order (kinda). Fiction & Non fiction is mixed. Which is confusing and time consuming to find just one book. Unless you know the exact author you want. Should be organized by Genre? Please? I’m writing this so people manage their expectations. Thousands of books to search through & I really tried for about twenty minutes. One couple came in and just left. The shop is cute and atmospheric. Selling books just doesn’t seem to be priority or there is little financial incentive to make the shop easier for customers to peruse. The shopping experience was tough. I wish I met to owner like others did. Really disappointing 🙁because I really love used book stores.
Response: Lots of people come in to just look at the building, they’re not storming out frustrated. See the other reviews: if they’re ‘confusing’ maybe it’s because a small used bookstore isn’t to your taste. It’s a little messy with lots of very recent donations and buys scattered all around, but we do say for people to tell us if they haven’t figured out the system. The philosophy and drama and overstock sections are so small we aren’t painstaking about keeping them alphabetical. Everything else is.
Laura Darrell: Cute as a button. Amazing selection either some unique finds. Well priced.
Kevin Baitup: Maybe the best selection of novels in English in Mexico City..a little pricey but still cheaper than El Pendulo or Gandhi
John Picardo: Charming little English language bookstore in a great location. Go upstairs to find a room of second hand books, lots of unusual finds, and a good selection of poetry, drama, fiction and non fiction. Not a place to go for the latest bestsellers, but browse and find something interesting. Super friendly owner who is happy to help.
Sammy Bailo: We were so happy to find this bookstore after limited options in English in the bigger bookstores in town.

Casa Bosques: what do users think?
Lauren Hoffman: Beautifully curated, extensive. and well-priced art book store. Most of the selection is in Spanish and/or English. Also had some very chic stationary and posters.
Breezy Charles: gorgeous space, amazing merchandise, but felt the service was lacking and many items missed prices. note that when the door is closed just knock or buzz, there is a guard attending.
Response: Hi Breezy, thanks for visiting us. We are sorry to hear the service was not up to par... we will work to improve this. Hope to see you again soon
Leslie Menassa: Great books in arts and photography. Great customer service !!
Rebekkah Smith: Cute and cozy bookstore with an art gallery and clothing shop situated downstairs. Might be useful to know that all the books I saw were in Spanish. But even if you don’t speak Spanish, it’s still with a visit.
Rachel Tang: A must stop for anyone who cares about art books. It is tucked away on cordoba st and every time I visit cdmx I go and I cannot say enough about this place. Apparently they have a new guest house on top of the book store called pension that looks simply beautiful like the rest of the brand by savvy studio.
Helen Hu: A lovely little spot for creative inspiration and refuge.
Backyard Button co: An awesome selection of magazines, zines and artists books.Some cool souvenirs and great art in the back rooms as well.
Julian: Wow this place is great, the girl alice that works there is so cute and cool and helped me pick out some great books i got stuff for my whole family
Aja Brandman: Beautiful bookstore; nicely curated. Love the section of zines, chocolate wall, and some stationary. There’s also a gallery and small boutique store downstairs.

El LABERINTO: what do users think?
Matt Dawes: All books are in Spanish, but worth a visit just to browse
Wim Hilven: Super nice to see and lots lots of books.. But prices are relatively expensive compared to many other book shops in the same street.
David Lloyd Rushing: I loved this place. They got a huge amount of books of all kind of topics. I felt like one of those libraries in movies and even the guy attending the store had that vibe of a bookworm and that totally can hook you up with the books you might be looking for. Not a lot of places left like this one.
Jude Rushing: Interesting place ... Old old books
Espacio 4: You can find any book
Lilian Molina: I have been several times and some titles I have found only in this bookstore. There is a 30 or 40% discount almost every Saturday. If you bring a bike they let you store it inside. The attention is always excellent, the staff is very friendly, you end up with a smile and a good chat. The categories and books are in order and there is a lot of variety, the place is very cozy. Highly recommended.
Guada Franco: To spend hours and hours looking for and choosing books! Very nice place for those who love reading ❤️

Cafebrería El Péndulo: what do users think?
Luisa Nathalie Rodriguez: So iconic place, the coffee and the chocolate was so yummy, just need more tables inside (in my opinion) , but everything so beautiful!
Evelyn V: Worst service in my entire stay in Mexico. Mexico is known for their hospitality and service. Service was awful. Ambiance is nice…. Maybe if they focus on their customers, this place can be recommended… hope service gets better! Good luck.
J G: Large book store and cafe in the heart of Polanco. It’s got a great selection of books including any section in English. It’s a bright space spread over two levels with its own out outdoor seating area. You can buy books or read your own while drinking a coffee and eating some food. The quality is good.
Response: Thank you very much for your words.
Cristina Metgher: Great place to come by with your laptop and get some work done while enjoying good beverages. The pastries were so so but the tea and the mango flappe was really good. The ambience is inviting and there are siting areas on both floors where you can enjoy a good book or catch up with your email.
S X.: Nice mix of bookshop, cafeteria and restaurant! Service was excellent, fast and friendly! A place to relax…
Hugo Pedro-Martins: What a wonderful place and surprise. I went there all the days I was in CDMX. The food is great, Arrachera, the tacos were delicious. The margaritas outstanding! Strong as I like them! I Loved this place! And the books a Mega Plus!
simon: Super friendly and cozy, absolutely loved the vibe it gave. Would really recommend if youre looking for somewhere to work, read, write, or just chill and look at books.
Férnando Diaz (Fér): Hands down one of the best cafe spot for book readers and the curious. Every city should have a cafelibrerie. Somehow it blends a bookstore, cafe and restaurant into a truly unique spot. Cafelibrerie does all three categories well.
Amir El Yordi: Amazing ambiance perfectly cooked Mexican food! A 10 all arround
