Lofty Pigeon Books | Brooklyn, NY

Cutesy local book store with lots of pigeon merch and a nice kids area. You can tell they really love their local neighborhood and supporting local writers and artists. Also they had a bathroom here which was really nice touch.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ **Lofty Pigeon Books is Everything a Bookstore Should Be** I had such a great experience at **Lofty Pigeon Books** — it's easily one of my new favorite spots in Brooklyn. The atmosphere is incredibly inviting and peaceful. It’s the kind of place where you can sit down with a cup of coffee, flip through a book, and completely lose track of time (in the best way). What really stood out to me was the *amazing service*. The staff were super friendly and approachable, and they genuinely seemed to care about helping me find books I’d love. They didn’t just point me to a shelf — they actually took the time to talk with me, make great recommendations, and share their deep knowledge of literature. It made the experience feel so personal. Whether you're looking to browse, relax, or just enjoy a warm and welcoming space filled with good energy and even better books, I *highly* recommend stopping by. Lofty Pigeon Books is the real deal — a cozy, community-focused bookstore that gets everything right. 5/5 without a doubt. I’ll definitely be back!

Super cute variety, loved the spring sale! I just wish that they had more of a YA selection than two small shelves, as that’s what I primarily buy (children’s could also use a bigger variety, but the children’s nook is ADORABLY designed). If you’re into adult nonfic, the selection is incredibly well curated, though, and the store is really well organized and easy to navigate! Cute trinkets and gifts too.

Lofty Pigeon is nothing short of a magical bookstore. It is beautifully designed with a well-curated selection of books, as well as cards, gift wrap and some lovely gift items. But most importantly, the owners and staff are kind and thoughtful. This is something beyond a bookstore; it is an amazing community space.

Lofty Pigeon Books made my day. The store is beautiful, the selection of books is delightful, and the staff is extremely kind. I loved watching families walk in, and seeing how excited the kids got to run over to the selection of children's books and settle into a cozy spot. There's such a strong sense of community.
