Disappointing Experience - Not Representative of Oak Cliff’s Values My daughter attempted to donate books to this store, but what should have been a simple act of generosity turned into an unacceptable experience. Without any explanation, an employee began kicking the boxes she brought. When she tried to get clarity on what was wrong, he raised his voice at her. I called the store, hoping to understand what happened and resolve the situation, but the same employee immediately started screaming at me and hung up the phone. This type of behavior is not the true character of Oak Cliff—a community where great food, art, exceptional customer service, and skilled craftsmanship thrive. We need businesses that embody the spirit of our neighborhood and can acknowledge when they’ve failed to meet basic standards of customer service. I hope this business will take this feedback seriously and make necessary changes.

The staff was warm and welcoming with plenty of help to offer. There were endless selections and many good options of all genres to choose from. The cookies and their unique flavors offered toward the front caught both my mom’s and my eyes.

This bookstore was HUGE. You could easily spend a couple of hours here and not find every gem. That’s part of what made this place fun - but the organization was a bit haphazard. Prices were very affordable and we found a few books for our kids back home.

I’m sorry to report that tomorrow, May 3, 2018, the Oak Cliff branch of Lucky Dog Books will be closing. Today was my first visit and i have to admit being a bit emotional as I walked through the store. I have fond memories of book stores in Southern California in the 80’s and 90’s... this store is as stuffed to the brim, nook-filled, supremely comfortable and quiet as I remember those other places. I was the only customer there the 1hr.+ I browsed, which I suppose explains why it’s closing. The Casa Linda and Mesquite (Paperbacks Plus) stores remain open. Please support small businesses!
