My favorite book store. Always find treasures. Great prices too. New and used books. Everything a great bookstore should be. Highly recommended!
Decent enough but its very bright & the shelves are very high. I did see a pickup option, so thats nice. Otherwise, got a LOT of genres (including erotic) & for a decent price as well.
A lot of good books, I didnt find what I was looking for, but found a great place to find so much other good stuff.
Never come here for a trade or to sell your books. They are not the type of human you would wanna deal with. Nothing is fare here in this Book Store.
Sacramento California saw in the latter part of the 1930s a family bookstore that has thrived all the way the way to the present. The stores eclectic choice of new and used books invites all to browse. Currently located at S and 10th streets Insight cafe offers a place to continue with reading while sipping a delectable brew. A nice date with friend(s)— plan to spend quality time here.
Love this place and love the gentle enforcement of masks for people who think its still ok to enter the store with the mask in their hands instead of on their face, thank you for caring about the safety of people who want to browse a real bookstore instead of staying inside all the time because some people cant be bothered to follow the rules and cooperate in society like the rest of us. Affordable used books and comics and zines and merch -- shop local!
This might be the best bookstore I have ever been too! Unfortunately I don’t live in the are and wanted every chance to go here. I think I went inside at least a dozen times in the month and a half I was in the area, and loved it. An incredibly extensive collection and great vibes among the staff, I just wish I could go back. If you like reading and books even just a little bit: Go to Beers!
Great customer service and professional staff members.
Great condition new and used books. I always end up with a handful of books to take home. Prices are good too!
I stopped by here to browse. Place is very clean, and organized. Found a few horror comics I couldnt live without. Price were very reasonable.
I am new to Sacramento and as I was passing by I said to myself, beer & books?! Some of my favorite things! although there was no beer, Beers Books did not disappoint and I only got through the US history section so I still have a lot more exploring to do. This is my new go to bookstore. As I very much dislike shopping at big box and chain stores for the reason that they pushed out local owners who knew and were friends with the people in their communities and its difficult now for small businesses to compete, I love supporting small businesses and I suggest others consider it too and shop here. The staff is very friendly and there is so much to select from!
Great, reliable used book store.
Been a few years, but still a great bookstore!
This bookstore is amazing. Prices are great, theyll even order new books for you. I dont know if Ive bought this many books in one sitting ever. I love this place. If you ever are in need of a cheap book you should absolutely come here.
Great selection of new and used books. Easy to find what youre looking for and friendly staff in case you cant.
Its just got a really nice feel to it. Very chill store. Found everything I was looking for.
I liked coming in here. I was helped right when I walked in. Friendly atmosphere
Excellent selection, and I have always received excellent and friendly assistance from the staff.
We stopped by Beers Books for the first time after someone recommended it to me a week or so ago. We were greeted right upon entering with a smile. We were asked if we needed help with anything. Loved the feel of the store and enjoyed browsing books. I ended up getting a book. We came close to closing time so did not have that much time but will definitely go back. Thank you for the pleasant experience!
Giant variety of book genres. Plenty of hidden gems pre internet to find and feast upon. Great prices and friendly employees.
I only recently found this bookstore, sometime before the Covid pandemic struck, I wish I could stop there more often but time and work are no friend of mine. HOWEVER when I do go I am always leaving with a decent pile of books, replenishing my bookshelf at home with lovely finds. They have such a variety, so organized and well maintained. For future buyers I highly recommend picking up a book from Beer’s Books and heading to temple coffee for a drink to read with it.
You should come to this amazing place. Theres parking all up and down the street. Walk inside, it smells exactly how you want it to smell. Remember the book store smell? Do you get that when you order a book online? No, no you do not. Go make friends with the person at the counter, go have a conversation about literature. Go find the book you need and the book you didnt even know you wanted. If they dont have it, ask them to order it! Thats how you keep book stores open and alive. Thats how you support small business in the community. Stop ordering books online, and seriously, just go smell this amazing place. 5...NEIGH... 6 stars!
Not been there for years..think they moved....been in Sac since 1936Great selection...not sure if its used or mix of new and used.Most used book stores are cramped and limited so I was happy they were not this at all!!!!They survived many cycles since 1936!!
Excellent book store! Found a couple of old favorites to share with my children.
Im not allowed to go here too much for financial reasons. Great store, excellent and friendly staff and lots of good books.If you cant find something here you should probably stick to TV
The best bookstore Ive found in the Central Valley! Beers has a great selection of new and used books in all subjects! Definitely coming back for another visit next time Im in Sacramento. 👍
First visit, very impressed from the stores size to the large selection of books. Very friendly and helpful staff. Bought 3 books at great prices, I will be back!
Love this place mostly great prices and an inviting atmosphere. The best book store in Sacramento imo. Great cheap sci-fi paper backs, comicbook trades at half off and knowledgeable staff. If you truly love books go to beers. If you are picking up john Grisham or a self help book you can probably find it here but beers will help you discover Kerouac, Vonnegut, marquez, Acosta, Ellison and Everett.
Super knowledgeable staff - Im like, Im looking for this book and halfway know the title and do not know the author.. they took what little info I had and found it!! A+ ppl. Dope atmosphere too
Great selection of books, and the prices are amazing! I walked out with more books than I should have, and the pocketbook thinks I only bought one. That’s a win in my book. Plus, the staff here are super nice and quickly helped me find what I was looking for. Highly recommend you visit if you’re a book lover.
Beers Books is a used book store thats been around for a long time. They have lots of books (and I do mean lots). They have everything from westerns to philosophy to horror and many more. Staff is always friendly and professional. This bookstore is a pretty good size place and the isles dont make you feel crowded. I really do like this place.
I love this place. Great used book store with fair prices, and if you like to browse, you cant ask for a better place to do it. This is a Sacramento institution that survived Amazon Books, so that says a great deal. Ive found very obscure books here. Good for collectors.
Good vibes, great fiction selection.
This store has a good variety of books to choose from. Old and new, paperback and hardback. Cant find what you want? No problem. They can order that book for you. They will also buy your books for credit or cash. The staff are professional and nice. And the store looks like its kept clean. This store is good sized and you dont feel cramped walking around through the isles. I recommend this place.
Cool bookstore, great prices, varied and eclectic selection, nice employees.
Great prices. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. They even shelved my self-published novel on display near the front. I sold a few copies through them, and they only took a small cut. They keep an excellent mixture of stock of whats popular and whats interesting/obscure. I hope these guys stay here a looong time
Great local bookstore. They had both the books I was looking for. Staff was helpful and kind. They have a great selection of books. Usually plenty of parking and are covid safe at the moment.
Great used book store. Big selection. Organized nicely.
Very nice and inviting book store conveniently located in downtown Sacto. Great new and used selection, friendly staff. I would go here first before venturing to a big box or Amazon.
The guy there said hes are real sticklers with the rules although it looks run down and have mostly books no one wants. It was my first time there and was looking for old bibles. I wanted to return one of the books I purchased for $6 a few days before and the guy wouldnt give me a refund. He said hes a real stickler with the rules so I wont be returning and I will have a $6 credit FOREVER!!
Lots of books and very nice!
I like the book selection. The store is located downtown where I work and I can easily walk to it. Parking is difficult. The used books are good quality and well maintained, no missing pages or strange substances. I was looking for a particular type of murder mystery. The clerk knew where the books are shelved and walked over to the shelf with me to show me the location. They accept cash and credit cards. There are chairs for sitting and reading before buying.
Awesome! What else can I say?? I love going down to the cellar and browsing the used book selection. The staff are warm and helpful, the other customers make themselves at home... this place is a real hub in the Beers Book Center community. Highly recommended.
Love this book store! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. This is a great place to find older books and also great place to find used books at a reasonable price. They also have new books for you to pick up as well. A nice variety of books as well.
Its a nice shop and well organized. They know the value of the books they sell. So youre not gonna find an absurd deal on a rare first edition, but youll pay a fair price for it. Its quiet and they have a silent cell phone policy which is refreshing. I like stopping here when I pass by for work.
Great selection, friendly helpful staff. The go to Sacramento Used Bookstore for over 40 years.
They placed a local authors book and paid me on the spot. For that I am grateful. I fell in love with the store long before that. Unpretentious. Well managed. Great selections. Super organized to find what youre looking for. Thank god for books!
A wonderful bookstore with lots of neat finds. Its mostly used books but they have some new books and discount books mixed in. Theres also a great selection of gorgeous classics!
My go-to local bookstore. Super knowledgeable staff and such a huge selection. Its a welcoming atmosphere to just kick back and read a few pages. I find myself sitting in the aisle and just getting lost amongst the pages. I have sold some books to them which was a super easy experience. Of course I chose store credit! This is your place- cornerstone!
One of my all time favorite used book stores. Great selection of used books of all genres, but an especially wide selection of metaphysics/occult books and other unusual genres compared to other stores. Reasonable prices and friendly helpful staff.
Good used book store!! Clean, well organized, friendly staff. Parking is on the street and can sometimes be hard to find right in front of the store but I have never had to walk more than a block and a half. Usually find parking in the same block.
Seems very much like a used bookstore - with DVDs even. Prices were low. They buy used books or give you in-store credit. Amazingly, they have titles that I like, and they restock fairly constantly. Employees appeared to know where everything was - I did not ask about beer. Ive been back many times, plan to visit regularly.
Theres no doubt in my mind that Beers is the best used bookstore in Sacramento, especially for literature buffs. They have an easy tobrowse shelving system and theres lots of natural light. A decentselection of Sci-Fi classics and CA history too. The sale racks arereplete with nuggets and the staff is low-key and helpful. This isa place that takes books and reading seriously. And its a seriouslygood stop for any book-lover visiting Sacramento.
Their variety is astounding. Rather than overloading on your typical run of the mill books; e.g. Stephen King, Joseph Campbell, and Socrates, each respective to their own category, this establishment has opted to carry more niche works that Ive had to spend hours online just to stumble across. Theyre Asian literature section is particularly well developed with worthwhile translations.
This is hands down the best place to buy or sell books in Sacramento!The environment is totally cool for people of any age, and the selections are some of the most diverse that I have seen in a book store.I went in and sold a book for a VERY fair price, and browsed around, noticing they carry everything from personal memiors to comics! (Even an entire section on how to draw comics)*COMIC FANS READ*They have an entire row of bookshelves full of every kind of comic book you have ever thought of, from Marvel to Image comics! (I saw a mint saga trade going for 5 bucks!)
Ive been coming herr from years. Theyve got a friendly staff and plenty of books to browse and purchase. They make great use of the available space, too.
Lovely bookstore, boasts a wide variety books to suit anyone stopping by!
This is one of the few bookshops that will pay cash for used books. The collection is great and the prices for used books are reasonable. New books are expensive, but this is less the stores fault and more the fault of the industry/publishers. There are little nooks where customers can sit and read and the staff are very helpful.
It is almost like the experience of a library...Not so much a public library.. More like an invitation to browse in the personal library of a new and gracious welcoming friend. I went inside to take a little peek... I left with almost too many books to carry... I will return! Thanks, Beers 😍
Great bookstore with lots of eclectic books and gifts. Love this local gem if a bookstore with very knowledgeable employees.
FIRST is they sell the BEST canvass tote bags for only $8. My original is 15 Years old, hangs off my wheelchair crammed full and heavy yet not a fray to be seen. Comes with the image of the cat who strolled in as a homeless kitty and lived a great life until age took its toll. Gone but most certainly living on and now on T-shirts too😺 And the books OMG the books! A bibliophiles dream for selection of material and pricing wrapped within the feel only a bookstore provides the soul. Ahhhhh Beers Books, why arent you there now avoiding insane holiday store mania in favor of a gift that truly says, I know you.
Love this book store! Great selection and very helpful staff!
Used books of all subjects at good prices.
Always a favorite stop for the rare and well-priced. Staff is well informed and happy to help. Its a warm space that invites you to explore their vast collection, and you can find everything you need except textbooks.
Cool selection of books and great staff.
Cool hangout place, visit here frequently when Im bored w my friends. Books for everyone here. Awesome postcards and theyre super cheap. Definitely worth a visit if you want to get back into reading.
Wonderful book store. A great mix of new and used books, a broad selection, and very reasonably priced. I could spend an entire lifetime in here.
I love this place. They have an excellent and diverse selection, with very reasonable prices. My favorite book store in Sacramento
What a selection of books...wow! A great place to spend time browsing and exploring the wide variety they have.
Great bookstore with new and terrific used books. Throwback to the 90s
Great for an eclectic variety of books used and new. Love this book store. My only beef is its quite a ways from where I stay.
I love that its so close to my work, the staff are super sweet and helpful (I know a few of them well and consider them friends), and they have a big, well-organized selection of books at really good prices.
Great selection of new and used books. No hard sell and salespeople leave you alone. I always find something when I visit. Fabulous hours too.
Great selection of new and used books. Everything from $.50 paperbacks to ,rare, leather bound books and 1st editions. Friendly environment and excellent staff.
Great selection and they always have something interesting. they buy a lot of my books so i can just exchange them for store credit.
Glad to see that there’s still a local bookstore in downtown. They have used & new books. Staff are friendly (kudos to Audrey) and helpful.
I found two books to purchase at good prices. I love used book stores.
They had a great selection of books. Mainstream titles as well as classics and rare books. They stock books on a wide range of subjects/genres.
Love this place! Always a great selection of books and once i found a borders bookmark inside one of the books i bought!
My #1 place to browse and buy books. Knowledgeable, very helpful staff. You can tell they all love their books!
Fair prices, good customer service and great inventory.
Book store is pretty good, great hangout. But one staff, I think they called him Robert, this guy sucks! Totally rude to customers. Whoevers managing this place is doin a crap job.
Great selection and a knowledgeable staff. Look forward to visiting again when Im in need of another book to read.
Awesome local bookstore with a nice selection and helpful friendly staff. You can buy a store branded tote bag with a cat on it. Would recommend.
Classic new and used book store in a great location near the R St corridor. Stop in here before seeing your favorite local band at Old Ironsides, which is just 50 yards away.
Awesome used bookstore and got a old book for my wife .
One of the best book stores in town. Great selection and prices. I never leave the store empty handed.
Expensive new books (price set by publishers) very reasonably priced used books! Satisfied by selection and price (go for used)
Wide selection of books!! Staff was warm and welcoming. Very helpful as well!!
My favorite bookstore in Sacramento, second favorite in the world. I love coming here and browsing used books. With great prices, I rarely leave Beers empty handed.
I had about 50 brand new 30 to $50 books and they only bought 4 books that were the low end of all of them and paid $5 smh they tell u on the phone they pay $2 for an $8 book it took more gas to get there and back home then what they paid and charge high price for older books would not recommend to anyone
Great customer service and a wonderful selection of books.
Loved this place as a kid and still enjoy coming back as an adult!
Lovely book store with very friendly helpful knowledgeable staff, and even a few scattered reading chairs. Very fair prices on the books too.
I liked the selection of books and the cute signs around the store that explained that old books are worth reading too
Great selection. Very fair trade or cash for books brought in. Well be going back soon.
One of my favorite used book stores. They have a wide selection and a knowledgeable staff.
Wonderful collection, expanding all the time. Second Saturday visits are great to find a new book to get lost in.
This is one of the best bookstores in town. A great place to wander around and buy from!
Wide selection of new and used books. If you live in Sacramento count yourself as lucky. If visiting add this store to your list of places to visit if you love books.
Awesome used & new bookstore. The vibe is very cool and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable.
I just want to send my deepest gratitude to the staffs who are working at this store. Definitely, you are the type of people whom everyone wants to transact with. Fast and reliable.
Awesome staff, very friendly and helpful. Good vides. A widerangeofbooks,
When we stop in Sacramento we drop by to get a few books. Parking is convenient.
Just a nice little book store, you probably already know if youll like it
Fine and established shop
We love Beers. Everyone is so helpful and we manage to find some hidden gems every time we visit.
I think this must be the largest secondhand bookstore in Sacramento. They have a good and interesting selection, and the prices are fair. They also have special deals on various days.
Large and diverse selection of books that you wont find elsewhere. A bit pricier than Dimple but worth a look.
Great place with amazing selection of books.
New and used books. They take a lot of care in curating their selection. Easily my favorite book store in the greater Sacramento area.
I personally love this book store, hidden gem.

Sacramento simply has no better bookstore. Whether kids books, fiction, philosophy, or trending genres, Beers has something to offer and at the right price.
It was a fun experience. Finding a good bookstore is always a treat.

I wouldnt never come back to this book store ever again they are complete rip off i sell my 6 book and only give me $2.75 Booo you are rip off Ill be contacting your owner very soon watch youre back smh.......
Dont go here if youre hoping for polite, professional staff. Expect passive aggressiveness. I used to go here frequently to buy used paperbacks until I was insulted by staff for buying a cheap paperback, which everyone at Beers Books is there to buy.
Great Selection of Books. Good for occasional rare finds.
Super cheap books, really nice people and a pretty good selection
Great selection of books. Able to find affordable used hardcover that I need.
A book readers bookstore. Not a hybrid coffee shop or Pop-figure concession -- just quietitude, helpful staff, and full shelves.
Love this place! Great customer service and attentive staff.
They have a good variety and a large kids section .
The book selection was great, however, the worker was not particularly hospitable.
Very large selection of used books at good prices

To my enjoyment they had a large selection of books on metaphysics
Cute little bookstore and fortunately they didnt have what I was looking for
Helpful and personable. My go-to book shop for years.
Great selection of gently used books with fair prices.
Gotta give a book store with used books AND still in business five stars considering the oppressing competition they have with online sellers!
Remember bookstores? This place has a wide variety of real books.

2022-04-26This bookstore is a jewel — it is well-organized by welcoming staff. I found a treasure but left without it. Halfway home to Sonoma County, I called and asked about shipping. Yes, I was told, we can ship the book. I have never received a book through the mail so promptly and beautifully packaged. If this bookstore isnt part of your Sacramento circle, it should be.

2022-05-24A great used book store. Staff very friendly and accommodating. I was very disappointed when trying to sell used books to them. It was a huge waste of my time and energy taking in the old books, some quite rare. They offered very little and I ended taking most of them back home.

2021-02-17Absolutely loved this store, they have such an eclectic selection at AMAZING prices. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and seemed to read my mind when recommending books. Great selection of esoteric publications, they have everything from metaphysics, satanism, tarot decks, to the highest and most holy Jesus Christ, so they certainly dont discriminate nor judge based on your preferred reading material. This stack of 15 books only cost $122 - average $8/book!!

2021-08-05Disneyland for readers. I so wish I lived closer to them. I took advantage of being in Sac, and visited them. I bought a ton of books, including a couple of collectors items in Spanish and a vintage edition of Of Mice and Men.

2022-05-24Such a hidden gem! Must visit. I got so many bilingual french kids titles from them. I hope they are able to replenish their stock

2018-05-27Great used book store with every type of genre from which to choose. Plus, all copies are of high quality. The staff is helpful. The only thing that dings the five star review is their odd prohibition of using cell phones.
