Bookstore Martyrium

got a cat book for my niece and without my asking, they wrapped the book in a cat themed gift wrap and suggested i keep the receipt so that i could change it if the kid doesn't like it. super attentive and helpful and friendly service. thank you!

Nice collection of English and Dutch books, staff is knowledgeable and very helpful with recommendations.

I stopped here on the way back to my apartment and wanted to buy my 1 year old daughter a book! The staff here were super helpful and friendly as I only speak English they made my experience here very pleasant.

The bookstore always offers an interesting selection of latest editions, classics and other books, both in Dutch and English. Their highlights are always worth checking out, at lest by reading the back of the book. Great discounted section of art, children's, philosophy and other, mostly serious, books. The sellers behind the counters are intelligent, helpful and friendly.
Very pleasant to visit, and it is almost certain that you will come out with a couple of additions to your library.

So good to be assisted by a book shop keeper who has actually read the books you want to buy! Nice place, surviving the blockbuster distributors with passion and quality. Very wide offer, also in several languages.

Really cute place, both English and Dutch. Definitely a too go place in Amsterdam.

Good store! Almost all of the books are in Dutch.

One of those places you have always been looking for. Staff curated collection of books. Go there for inspiration and the great chance finds

Favorite bookshop in Amsterdam-Zuid. Staff knows a lot of all the books.

Really good place to sit, talk, chill

Nice place, friendly people.

Fijne boekwinkel met heel vriendelijke medewerker. Kortom, een boekwinkel om blij van te worden.

Altijd supergoede service door deskundig en klantvriendelijk personeel. Geen moeite is teveel om jou te helpen aan het juiste biek

Toen ik 30 was, was deze boekhandel er en is er altijd geweest en is er nog steeds. Ik word er emotioneel van ....ik ben inmiddels de 60 voorbij en als ik de winkel binnen loop is het of de tijd heeft stil gestaan. Boekhandels die zo lang bestaan zijn uniek.

Vriendelijk en vakkundig personeel. Ze bestellen en reserveren graag bieken voor jou, zonder vooruitbetaling, gewoon op vertrouwen. Altijd erg fijn geholpen. Groot aanbod, ook vele leuke aanbiedingen.

Prettige goed gesorteerde boekhandel met veel ramsj.

Een kwaliteitsboekhandel met uitstekende afdeling Engels(talig)e literatuur, zowel modern de klassiekers. Nederlandse literatuur is eveneens uitstekend vertegenwoordigd, evenals boeken op het socioculturele en historische vlak. Op afdeling ramsj/uitverkoop doe ik regelmatig interessante ontdekkingen (en aankopen). De medewerkers zijn kundig, maar laten je gelukkig vooral op eigen gelegenheid uitgebreid grasduinen.
