This place is SO COOL! The owner is friendly. There arent people following you around asking if you need help, even if youve been browsing for two hours... heh. The childrens area is FILLED with old books Ive never even heard of. Every section has a great selection. Perfect for finding treasure!! I absolutely love this place and could spend forever here. Its also huge and it took me forever to find the end of it. Very, very cool. My only complaint is that most of the books range from $4 to $8, and thats usually more than I want to spend on a used book. But if its a good find, its worth it.

From the outside it looks like a small house porch but the second you step inside its like stepping into another world. There are books on every subject in this store, and if anyone walks out empty handed then theyre crazy. I have spent hours in here just browsing, and that was while being rushed. If I was left unattended I would probably end up moving in. Ive recommended this store to anyone I know that enjoys reading or anything antique, and if I can find an excuse to go there I go. By far my favorite store for books/ old antiques.

Awesome! Jim and Pam run a wonderful small business with a family feel. The shop redefines eccentric. Books on anything you can think of. Knick knacks and curiosities of all sorts. The York Emporium is deeply involved in keeping local culture alive, organizing and hosting events that bring the community together. If in York, this shop is a must see and a diamond in the rough.

This is a hit with us. An unusual collection of books, antiques and quiet nooks to read. They carry some great first editions and excellent classic literature, as well as any other kind of book a person would ever need. Nice selection of comics, too. Very eclectic assortment - something for everyone.

Wow! What a diamond in the rough. I love used books stores. This is a used book store on steroids. A labyrinth of every genre of book you can imagine. My daughter and I had a great time maneuvering through the shelves and shelves of books. Very friendly staff to boot. I will be back again and again.

Incredible space filled with books and memorabilia. We were there for the Cigar Box Festival, this being there 8th year to host. Pat and Jim, the owners were incredible hosts and are delightful souls. Felt right at home

The owner Jim is great to talk to. Awesome selection. The store could use some work to keep the books in better shape, but Im sure its a cost saving measure. Lots of fun events are held here. Very family friendly.

I went there skeptical that I would find anything I was interested in but found my self wondering the row of books for hours. When I was ready to check out the man behind the counter was very kind. Would come again.

Amazing atmosphere, very friendly staff, and an endless array of books, comics, and items collected throughout the years. You could easily spend a full day(at least) in here and never find yourself bored!

Awesome place! A bit overwhelming at first but has a huge selection. Mostly used books, but also has memorabilia, antique knickknacks, historic items, etc.

Nice used book store. Very crowded, tight spaces. Sometimes it is hard to find the book section you want. Could use some better lighting.
