citylikeyou — McNally Jackson Independent Booksellers

New York / Bookstore

Offering 20% off on current “indie bestsellers” (and 10% off picks from their well-read staff), you can still get a good deal while supporting one of the city’s last independent bookstores. They also carry an impressive selection of magazines and literary journals that you can flip through in their café. McNally’s event calendar is packed with appearances and readings by authors like Zadie Smith and Chris Kraus, but they’re perhaps best known for their in-store printing press and self-publishing services.

Great film curation, cocktails, and restaurant. They keep the foodservice and theater separate which is great because I get distracted easily.
