    Inside there are rare and first-edition books, like vintage copies of Jane Austen or John Steinbeck novels. It's a place where you can get lost for hours. Read more

    The best and only outdoor book store. Hipy, granola vibe. You can sit and do work or study. Lots of seating!

    Love this openair book store. Folks working there could be a little bit more social though.

    A cool place to take your kids to show them what actual printed books used to be.

    A must when visiting Ojai. No better selection, value and ambience in an outdoor-indoor second-hand and vintage book store.

    You can buy the books on the outside of the store and leave the money in the drop box after hours.
