Olsson's has been in this location for a long time. Prices are decent but expect to pay more than you would at a large chain. Selection is excellent and there are a ton of books and magazines. You can also pick up the City Paper here. You can also buy and rent DVDs. Looking for a treat? Their cafe upstairs serves coffee, sandwiches, and salads. There's also Ben & Jerry's across the street, or Barkley Square Gourmet Dog Bakery around the corner!
