4.5 – 46 reviews • Used book store
Old Capitol Books is a black-owned bookstore located in Monterey’s historic downtown Monterey. We stock a wide variety of used and new books, with everything from best-selling novels to radical political theory to local interest topics. We are also a venue and art gallery, hosting lectures, book clubs, philosophy discussion groups, poetry readings, and much more! Independent bookstores are locally owned and usually owner-operated stores. They cater to the needs of customers in a way that chain stores cannot. Independent booksellers care deeply about books and readers, authors and writing, and not just about making money.

Overall very nice book store, easy to find across the street from Montery transit center. I didn’t find much that Interested me in the book store. However the staff was nice and helpful. The store smells pleasantly like old books from a library. There is plenty of space to walk around in unlike other used book stores in the area.
