Best Book store in netherlands

J	John Butler-Gould on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Located on Berenstraat in the middle of the 9 streets, Mendo is an upmarket flagship bookstore. It has a very unique interior. The walls are not from brick, but thousands of black books creating a distinctive ambience. Books are in all shapes and sizes with a number of publications being larger than some coffee tables. Mendo curates on various topics such as culinary books, fashion, graphic design, interior and architecture, lifestyle and travelling ensuring that only the best and most relevant publications are on offer. Described as a candy store for book aficionados, it is easy to spend hours here browsing through the pages of the many beautiful books. A large collection of collector's editions are on display. Staff are extremely helpful and all purchases are gift wrapped.
A	Andrea on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I've bought 3 books from their online shop and since by the end of February I was going back home in Italy I asked, before buying them, if I would be able to get them by the end of the month. The employee told me that was the case because the books were in store so I would be able to get them before my departure. I did not receive the books of course, not their fault, but the thing that makes me angry is the way they treat me. I had to call postNL to get information about my package, to inquire about possible ways to send the package back to the store and so forth to have at least my package shipped over the new address. MENDO did not care one single moment about my frustration and the disservice caused by a company (PostNL) to which they rely on to make their products delivered. I've bought a book early this year from Edition Ventile and I had a different problem but still related to a disservice caused by the Swiss postal service and they send me immediately another copy of the book I've ordered. (1star) edit: MENDO, after my complains, is caring about the shipping. PostNL lost the package and MENDO is finally able to ship a new parcel to my new address. Delivery scheduled in 3 days from today. I'm quite happy with how they handle the situation after my initial complains.
K	Katrina Peterson on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing, amazing, amazing! This is one of the most beautiful, special bookstores I have ever been to. Very difficult to choose and very difficult to not buy everything! The shop owners are friendly, ready to help and answered all of my silly questions about book stands. Also— they offer coffee and wine, so sit and stay awhile! Will be back on every trip to support this incredible local business.
J	Jeeves Williams on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If you love books focused on photography, fashion, travel, lifestyle, cuisine, interior design, architecture, and graphic design, MENDO should be at the top of your Amsterdam itinerary. It’s often dubbed a ‘candy store for book aficionados’. MENDO curate the most beautiful and intriguing books, and the store’s interior is a masterpiece in itself. They also have a few collector’s editions on display in the store. My favorite bookstore ever. Also, special shoutout to Mendo’s website: your mouse cursor gets turned into various objects (an iPad, a tomato, a pair of glasses, etc.) to give you a sense of how big the books you’re ordering are! The attention to detail in-store and online is remarkable.
S	Sarah Sabry on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very beautiful store with a great selection of coffee table books on all topics. Take some time to sit on the comfy armchairs and flip some pages, or ask for some advice from the knowledgeable staff! Definitely recommend if you like beautiful books or are looking for a good gift idea!
G	George Chrysanthopoulos on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Let’s see. Yes I agree you are doing a great work. And I respect that. But is the second time that our order has not been delivered , and if happens once is bad luck. But twice is something that you aren’t care about. So I believe this will awaken you.
C	Charleen Petersen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love this bookstore, it is cozy, has the nicest selection of coffeetable books, and they even produce their own books. Staff always helpful & friendly, been here several times already. Such a nice location too!
G	Gitte Koernmann on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful shop, friendly staff, pretty wrapped gifts(very good location to get a gift) and a big collection of books. This is a great shop to buy a coffee table book.
