I would rather spend my money at this lovely bookstore than anywhere else. Loads of wonderful stationery items, candy, and books. The young lady working there was kind and friendly.
Calms me down just to walk into this beautiful bookstore. I always find something new and interesting to think about (and buy) :-).
Great local bookstore...will buy from here instead of online
I love this store. It has a terrific selection of books and gifts. The staff is so helpful. If they dont have a book you want, they will order it if possible. I have brought little ones several times to pick out their birthday or Christmas present. They have all enjoyed the experience and pick it as a choice for the next holiday. Thank you Prairie Path!
This is such a lovely cozy place. I just got a bunch of gifts for my boss here. Ill be back for some things that would be perfect for mothers day. They have a nice selection of books for such a small place. I also noticed that they have a good section for kid books and it looks like theres a kid friendly play area for your kids to play while you browse. Definitely stop in if you want to look for books while feeling cozy and lovely
A delightfully charming neighborhood bookstore. Theres quite the variety in this small space, though they might not have specifically what youre looking for the moment you need it. I love the fact that many of the books come with little slips of paper tucked into them with personal recommendations of the staff. Community involvement is much appreciated through the various hosted events, especially the book clubs. Overall, a gem.
Cozy little break from the chilly fall weather. Cute local place.
Cute little independent bookstore!They have some unusual items and books that arent always found everywhere. The staff is friendly and extremely knowledgeable and helpful.
Wonderful, cozy store for the latest books. Select gift items are also available. They frequently host guest author events. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Love it!
Cute, cozy store. Excellent selection of books. I always love going into the shop and seeing what Ill find this time!
Very small selection but nicely organized. Gift items available (like $50 mittens). Wish there was a cozy place to sit and read...
I ordered a book, that I was told would be there by the date I needed it. She charged me to order it. The book did not come in. I canceled the order and was supposed to be given a refund. My credit card statement reflected the charge, but in credit. I had to get the credit through the credit card company.
This is the kind of place you go to look around and end up finding more than a couple items you want to take home with you. The bookstore is cute and staff is friendly. They also have small gift items, cards, etc.
Very helpful staff. Nice selection of books and related products.
Really cozy bookstore. Kind staff. Excellent and unique selection of books.
I went to the Champagne and Raspberries book review, which was a delightful sharing of recommendations from PPB staff. Funny, engaging and inspiring! It was part of the 3 year anniversary celebration which included a cookbook demo, a performance by co-owner Jenny Riddle and champagne and elegant refreshments. There is a real sense of community support, which inspired me to attend more programs, and of course....buy books!
Quaint little bookstore with unusual finds for kids: a whole shelf dedicated to strong women role models for kids and good kid books to help them learn more about different cultures....
Wonderful people, so helpful with suggestions.
Great local bookstore. Friendly staff excellent selection and fun little activities and get-togethers
What an absolute gem! This is a real, honest to goodness independent bookstore. I learned about it from the Wheaton library, just across the street to the shop. I try to get in every couple of months and just buy up books and such for gifts and for myself. Their taste is excellent. Youve got to go to this wonderful book store, we are so privileged its here!
Wheaton needed a bookstore, and Ive been pleased with this little shop over the last few years.
Beautiful and interesting displays, great selection of books (which makes it REALLY difficult to choose!), and wonderful people! My absolute favorite bookstore!
It was my first visit to Prairie Path Books. Absolutely adorable book shop. Friendly staff. Clean. Bright. I will be back.
We were visiting the college campus here in Wheaton when the book junkie in me needed to satisfy her craving. Prairie Path popped up on Yelp, so we followed the directions to the store.We parked and discovered that the store was tucked in the back of a very nice furniture store. After winding through displays of chairs a tables, we wound up in Prairie Path books- and it was fabulous. Its not very big, but they somehow manage to have just about everything. Ralph Waldo Emerson coasters, the latest YA titles, travel guides for 20% off...you name it. I wish I lived closer so I could support this bookstore more, since theyre a pretty new business. So, visitors and people of Wheaton, check this out!!!
Adorable book store, great childrenβs section and super friendly staff. Will be back for sure!!
Great local store!
Small but well curated selection, especially for good quality kids books.
One of my favorite bookstores! Shop local.
Great store with good variety of genres.
Nice facility, clean, bright, & expansive.
Great bookstore!!
So tucked away behind the furniture store, who would think to go there? And the library is a block away so I think, Buy a book? Borrow a book? And I borrow. Go to their annex on Hale St.
Great for kids books, functions, book clubs
A lot of books. Not very organized
Very neat store
I ordered a book and they didnt inform me it was back ordered
I have had good success with ordering books at PPB. Great place!
What a great book store this is!
