The best bookshops Maine-Et-Loire

The Byblos bookstore is located in the buildings of the diocese of Angers. In this welcoming space, you will be surprised by the quality and the volume of religious works proposed (about 30 000), tackling current subjects and allowing each one to question himself, to understand, to exchange, to be formed, whether you are a young public or an adult. The bookshop offers novels, essays, testimonies, practical books dealing with the highlights of life, history, art, ethics, philosophy... The cultural program is rich with dedications, debates.

Des that these Dutru, great lovers of the book before the eternal. In their shop there is a sense of time. The facility does not pay a mine, and it's a little delivered to itself. There is a little of course: a low-cost pocket book to satisfy its reading soifs at lower cost, nostalgic COMIC, works on Anjou (its kitchen, popular songs, famous women…) but also the beautiful book, the binding of art, binding which Mrs Dutru is very much to restore in the rules of art. The beautiful district of Doutre and this charming street offer an ideal setting for those lovers of beautiful pages.

At 21 of Maillé street, discover this associative area composed of an associative library, Les Nuits Bleu, and a place to have your bicycle repaired or purchased, The Head in the Handlebars. The place is committed, the books available also. And propose to discover themes and ideas that go out a bit of the beaten paths. Topics include ecology, urbanism, psychology, as well as libertarian movements, feminism, immigration, social struggles, etc. and we can follow the news of this collective on the blog above. Note: only the Head in the Handlebars is referenced in the Yellow Pages.

L'Atelier du Coin is an art studio located in Loire-Authion. It offers artistic creations and bookbinding services.

This beautiful bookstore will offer you a large choice of books. For the youngest or the oldest, you will find something to please. But that's not all! Le Mot de la Faim is also a tea room. All the products are local and organic. The cakes are also home made. On sunny days you can also enjoy the large terrace. We love the concept that allows you to buy your book and to attack it directly, accompanied by the drink of your choice and a delicious cake. The welcome is warm and professional.

In September 2023, to the delight of readers in the Doutre district, Sophie opened this small bookshop-café in a bright, friendly setting. A place of discovery and exchange, divided into two areas where you can enjoy a cappuccino or an infusion, as well as stock up on contemporary literature, thrillers, comics and various thematic works (poetry, biographies, current affairs...). There's also a small second-hand section: under certain conditions, Sophie offers you the chance to buy back books previously purchased in the store.

Making culture accessible to all: a desire as much as a duty for this bookseller offering mainly second-hand books at reduced prices. You'll love wandering through the shelves, where you'll find literary classics, contemporary novels, thrillers, philosophical essays, art books, comics and even a few DVDs. In November 2023, a few hundred meters away, at no. 19 rue Toussaint, the store opened a "youth annex", 40 m² entirely dedicated to the youngest readers, from^infancy to adolescence.
