Reviews of Voyageur Book Shop

Aaron M

Cool little book shop in a great area! Nice staff, even some friend Cats keeping guard of the shop. Great selection of books with an even better ambience and aesthetic of the store! Awesome art as well! Would recommend checking out in the area

Ellen Laatsch

Went there for the first time today and it was a very quaint bookstore but they had exactly what I was looking for. I've been on the hunt for the goosebumps series and they had quite a few I hadn't come across yet. Plus, they were in immaculate condition which is a rarity for children's chapter books made in the 90's, and for a reasonable price. Bonus, they have cats which makes the experience that much better. I will definitely be back!

I loved this bookstore! The staff was friendly and greeted me when I walked in, but they left me free to browse (and pet the sweet ginger cat that lives there!). I love the atmosphere as well.

This bookstore is amazing. Basement has an area to sit and relax. Sweet kitty to give lots of loving to.

Super cute book store that looks small at first - but there is a downstairs with many more options. I came looking for a specific book, which they did not have, but part of the joy of used bookstores is hunting for something specific. I still enjoyed browsing their options and the books looked to be in very good condition (as a result, their prices 2-3$ more than similar used books shops in the area, but worth it if you want them to be in newer condition).

Bustafer Jones is the sweet cat that roams the store. 2 levels with a children's section. Great prices, really cool selections and very friendly service.

Paul Taylor

a really nice little book shop with lots of nice books and two cute cats

Elizabeth Monfero

Beautiful cozy book store with lovely cats. 💕 …

Olivia Arnold

LOVE this bookstore!! The staff is always super friendly and they have a wide selection to browse. If you have books for a lit or English class you need to get, definitely check this place out. They have a ton of the classics for incredible prices. I love that every time I check out, the cashier knows something about the book I picked, whatever it is, and always is very conversational.

Jennifer Loftis

Such a wonderful spot! Staff is extremely friendly and they have a nice selection of used and vintage books. Hard to find stores like this anymore.

Melody Schwarting

Fantastic selection and some cool artwork to boot. We loved meeting the friendly cat, Bustopher Jones. I was able to find some unusual books I’d been hoping to pick up. Would love to come back soon!

Ha Li

Not as much inventory as I was expecting but still some good finds, organized sections, and sweet cat

Kiel Cruey

A cute little book store, and with resonable prices. Did I mention there a bookstore cat? Pet the cat and talk to about books. Fun, friendly Bayview book store.

Tyler Owen

Good variety in selection. Cute cats

Brian Kohlmann

Nice bookstore with a respectable selection. Friendly staff. Worth a visit when in Bayview.

This was my first visit and, although I live quite at quite a distance, I am already looking forward to the next time I am in Milwaukee. The owner is knowledgeable about his store as well as a wide variety of subjects and ideas. This is not a huge bookstore, but he has a keen eye for titles and genre and all the right instincts for selecting and integrating books that complement his core stock, and having found many books that I have previously read there were many more books that would expand my understanding on some of my favorite topics. Fiction areas were nice, too. There is a resident cat, so factor in some playtime along with browsing. Totally worth the trip. The Indian restaurant across the street is worth sticking around.

John Contreras

Great place! I stop by whenever I feel like perusing through possible new reads. There's also a fantastically beautiful cat that lives in the shop. Super friendly staff!

Michael Radloff

Used book stores like this one are real gems. It's always best to go in ready to browse and be surprised at what you can find, and this one is certainly worth spending a couple hours in!

Natalie Contino

The Voyageur Book Shop has multiple works by many of my favorite authors! There is a wonderful selection of classics. For several titles there are newer editions, old editions, cheap editions, and fancy editions. The Voyageur Book Shop is neat and clean but it has good decor and styling, too. Some bookstores with lots of old books can get a strong musty smell (which some people love, and others love to a lesser extent), but this one just has a faint, pleasant, bookish-scent. I was only dissapointed that the middle-grade selection is fairly limited. Pro-tip: Don’t forget to check out the lower-level for even more books to browse!

The owner of the place makes Voyager one of my favorite book stores. He's always helpful and knows what he's talking about. I went in there with my mother to browse a bit and noticed a complete set of the 'Chronicles of Narnia,' which would've rung up $70. However, he was willing to sell for half off just because we were buying the complete set. You know that he's not in it for the money if he's willing to give up a large amount of his profit to make sure the customer is happy. This is why I'm going to keep coming back here as long as I can.

Angela Arbogast

The prices seem a little bit on the higher side, but not so much to complain about. Well organized. Two levels. Amazing chonky baby orange cay that showed us around. Will absolutely be back again and again.

Diane Mosnik

Excellent selection of vintage and newer books and the seller was very informed about the inventory and books in general. Very helpful. Bought several books and will definitely be going back for more.

Karen Reedy

Small but great and eclectic collection of used and antiques. The gentleman working was very helpful too!

Justin Ludeman

I've found, and bought, quite a few used books here. The selection is always interesting to browse through, and the staff is friendly. The books are organized nicely. There is a ground floor and a basement.

Kathleen Schilz

Great high quality Bookstore. Quiet, quaint, and comfortable.

Andrew Orlandini

First time visitor, clean, well organized store with a friendly resident cat. Broad collection for a small store, a must visit for any biblophile.

Old Mke

Very cool collection of unique books and Chronicles The helpful and knowledgeable staff member pointed us in the right direction to find what we were looking for. Definitely worth a visit.

ashley

Cute bookstore with adorable cats. What more could you need?

Zach Massey

Great spot for unique selection as well as some constant classics

This little shop found in the heart of Bayview is a rare gem that shines with the brilliance of their professional staffing and knowledgeable leadership abilities thanks to its being helmed by proprietors Blaine and Jeremy. Both being aficionados of the literate world helps to make their vast selection to target both beach readers and literature fiends alike. And of course they haven't forgotten the kiddos with a large children's section. Take into consideration their Friday evening book reading engagements featuring traveling scribes and their unflagging support for local authors as well as Sunday afternoon writing workshops given by astoundingly resourceful, creative and gifted Milwaukee area poet/artist Anja Sieger, and you've just found perfection. Don't take my word for it. But I will accept your gratitude for it later.

Joe de la Cova
