Anarchist bookstore . Great selection. Sale books are up front!

Julia Hays

Only book shop in Philly that specializes in anarchist , radical, left-wing literature. Shop is run by volunteers. Other than the sales rack, the books can be a bit pricey .

As of summer 2024, masks are still required for entry. They have them available at the door for free.

An indie neighborhood isn’t complete without a collectively run anarchist book store , right?
