User Reviews of Cooks Library

Yelp.com Review - by TASCHEN S.

5.0 of 5 stars. Can cook books be better than sex? No, but we give them 5 Stars for trying. They have everything you ever wanted to know about cooking but were afraid to ask.

Yelp.com Review - by amy r.

5.0 of 5 stars. Stylistically, this is one of those old-fashioned sorts of book stores in which you could get lost for hours finding books you'd never seen before, chatting with the staff and just absorbing the whole…

Yelp.com Review - by Renee T.

4.0 of 5 stars. This is what a cookbook store SHOULD be. And we had a great time shopping for cookbook gifts during the winter holidays. There were treats on the table, book signings, and a comfy chair to peruse my…

Yelp.com Review - by Sonia J.

4.0 of 5 stars. Love this place. I don't go in very often, usually when I need a last minute present for someone in town, but the selection is great. Mark up is much bigger than amazon or half.com. So usually I…

1.0 of 5 stars. Normally, I would give this store 5 stars. It's a great collection of cookbooks for the cooking enthusiast. HOWEVER, after visiting this store, the owner was SO rude to me, ruder than any person…

5.0 of 5 stars. Cook books. What a wonderful use of paper and ink. Within the cookbook genre there are many different types: scientific, basic, educational, historical, old school, new school. Ones with no name chefs…

Yelp.com Review - by reg t.

5.0 of 5 stars. Excellent selection of not only cookbooks, but historical lit with Epicurean themes. If you walk out of here empty handed, hand in your YELP badge. Now.

Yelp.com Review - by Scott M.

4.0 of 5 stars. They certainly have more food related books than any general book store. But, some of the books seemed old, outdated and obscure though I do appreciate their niche collection. I didn't find more than…

Yelp.com Review - by Matthew K.

5.0 of 5 stars. I can't believe I haven't reviewed this store yet. It's the best place to find books on food and cooking anywhere in the city, with a selection about 4 times the size of your average Barnes and Noble's…

Write Bites

This bookstore has everything for the home cook--from classics like Marcella Hazan to the latest gastroporn from Nigella Lawson. If it's in print, you'll find it here. Budding cooks should not be intimidated....
