The fastest international delivery of a rare childrens book that I have experienced thus far. A pleasure to support independent booksellers. Thank you.!

Great little sit and sip. Books/magazines & Beer/wine.

Super cute little place with new and used books. Staff was kind and very helpful. Will be back soon.

Cute bookstore - the negative review is only for the brunch And browse. We were so excited about our 2 hour private session this AM as it seemed to be such a brilliant idea. However it turned out to be a disappointment:1) staff there today was pretty cold and unwelcoming. When we arrived there’s no greeting and the only thing he said to us was we had the place to 11:30 am. I mentioned it was booked from 10-12. He said he needed time to clean for next client at 12. (We were totally ok with it but then why don’t you list your booking as 11:30 online or in the email confirmation rather than 12 everywhere?) So beware you won’t get the 2 hours you paid for.2) We were offered 4 pastries (croissants) and told we can have coffee and up to 2 mimosa per person. Honestly the pastries were very average and we were never offered a refill on either beverage.3) all above is not really a problem as we understand staff might want to leave us some privacy to browse the books until some guy, probably a friend/biz partner of his showed up and they started chatting very loudly. It was a tiny store and we were the only people and they knew we were there quietly reading. I used my not so subtle voice mentioning that “I couldn’t focus over their chatting” but either they were too loud and didn’t hear me or just totally ignored me. I was hoping they could just finish and leave but the chatting and laughing last at least 10-15 mins about their booking of music band etc. and I had to totally give up reading and started pacing.I found this very unprofessional and disrespectful - we paid 40$ Not to get the pastry we can get from a cafe for 10$ but for the quiet time to browse books; even public library requires whispering voice. The whole experience left a very bad taste and discouraged us from buying the books we liked.

We took Visible Voice books on their opportunity to rent out the book store for 90 minutes, pizza and wine included all for $50! It was seriously the date night my partner and I needed. It was the first time during the pandemic we felt comfortable eating out and the bookstore’s manager, Aaron, was friendly, hospitable, and made our night that much more enjoyable. Then CRUST pizza was served and gave us life. Because this is a public space, I had expected some people may wander in, but they were sparse and quickly reminded that the bookstore is available for private parties only in the evening. This was totally fine with us! 10/10

After purchasing a less common book through this seller online for the price that THEY had advertised, the company cancelled my order 48 hours later because they said they sold the book to me too cheaply. Actually at first, they didn’t even give a reason. They just cancelled the order with no comment. After I reached out to them to find out what was going on, they advised me that they had advertised the wrong price in error. I could have bought from another seller for a similar price at the time that I chose to do business with Visible. After Visible cancelled my order, the other company had already sold the less than easy to find book that I was looking to buy. This is a highly untrustworthy seller. I will not attempt to buy from them again and suggest that all others use caution if you choose to do business with them. I would search for other sellers, if at all possible, first. There are many reputable book merchants who honor their word and uphold the agreements they make with their customers. Visible is not one.

Books and coffee. It was great.

Bit of a late one but this weekend, after a long drive, we stumbled upon this location whilst looking for things to do in Cleveland. Google Maps said it was open, the website said it was open, and it was indeed open.However, after walking in, we noticed a group of 4 finishing their meal and figured we’d just take a look around and possibly have some coffee after we’re done looking at the books. To our surprise, we were told that we are not allowed in the bookstore since it was reservation only. Yet, there was no posting on the walls, doors, website**, or even Google Maps to suggest that. We were told we can stay for a max of 10 minutes before having to leave because a group was coming in.It really is a nice spot with some interesting book selection but the lack of communication and signage was unpleasant, especially during COVID-19 since many businesses laid out clear policies about store hours etc.**attached is a screenshot of their website as of Monday, August 17, 2020

It was a fun experience. Some interesting book choices and the pizza was yummy!

I’ve been in 3-4 times now and I love this place! They have something for everyone-books, wine, coffee, pasties etc! Very helpful staff and the type of atmosphere that makes you want to curl up with a good book!

Small independent bookstore. Nice selection. Attractive displays. It sells beer and wine by the glass. Also coffee, tea, and hot cocoa. The hot cocoa was excellent and only a dollar. The pastries were very good, too. And 2 hours of live music with George Foley playing was really terrific

Nice cozy place serves drinks

A great bookstore with both a used and new selection. I found several books from several genres, and the staff was helpful and seemed like they actually enjoyed their jobs. I didnt try the coffee, but appreciated that they carried that and some local pastries. There was seating as well in case I wanted to sit in with a new book and coffee. A great bonus was that its above a pizzeria, where I got a fantastic slice of pizza. I will definitely be visiting this bookstore again.

What a fun bookstore. Its not big, but the folk are really friendly and the selection is solid. It is up stairs so be aware.The coffee service is good too.

Books, pastries, wine, music and so much more.a smaller bookstore but with great selections. Walked into beautiful guitar music being played live. An inviting place to browse with knowledgeable staff. Coffee, wine, pastries on hand. Programs for kids, readings by local authors, and, as noted, live musical performances. Ill be back. And Ill visit the pizza place downstairs, too.

Stopped in here on a day trip from detroit. Apparently the bookstore is only open for private reservations as of August 15th 2020. No COVID policies on their website, Google or door of business to let new customers know. We apparently interrupted a private reservation without any notice of it happening until the reservation left. Super odd experience, beware!

Very quiet atmosphere relaxing

Such a cool little gem this bookstore is. Superb selection in a range of categories. Not your traditional brick and mortar. Live music performs while you can enjoy a drink and search for a new unique read.

Visible Voice Books is a small but eclectic bookstore. Worth the time to browse and buy from this selection, and have a slice or muffin and a beverage. Support independent bookstores! A bonus is a friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Visible Voice is a great find especially for my first visit to Cleveland. I was given a tour of Cleveland and we ran into this place after dinner. We love books and were totally amazed when we walked in. The feel of the book store is comfortable with little nooks throughout. It is just the place you need when you want to find that HARD TO FIND book. I usually have to order a book from the BOX STORES and wait a week or two until it comes in. I found the books I was looking for and then some other titles that I found really interesting. We now have placed this on our list of must do places when I return to Cleveland.

Visible Voice is great. Its a charming space above Crust Pizza (YUM). They have a wonderful selection of books AND you can drink wine there. Whats not to like?

Hard to find, worth the effort. I discovered an amazing book on aging by Cisero from 43 AD. Yes it was an English translation. Find your book here...have a cup of coffee...great cake

Newest Cleveland-area bookstore. Love it! Not the usual lowest common denominator books you’d find at B & N. Very eclectic selection of books at very reasonable prices.

Wow! What a great little bookstore in a great little neighborhood. The recent renovations complement a well curated selection of books, plus there are bistro snacks and beverages to enjoy on site. Love it!

Everything Ive ever wanted in my local bookstore. Small and locally owned with a decent selection, serves wine and coffee with a pizza shop downstairs. Cant wait to go back for Sunday for live jazz.

What a great place. Books, poetry readings and live music upstairs while noshing on superb vegan pizza hand delivered from the downstairs Crust pizza. Yay!

Stopped in to buy a book. A $30 deposit required to browse books? I know 2020 has been awful but this is the worst policy I’ve seen yet to date. Do they want to sell books?

Great spot in Tremont. Relaxed atmosphere with wine, coffee and dessert. Great book selection and fun place to hang out!

Interesting book store, not so much run of the mill. You can find good gift books and cards here. Also, good local music and refreshments.

Amazing staff. Incredible selection. One of the best independent bookstores in the world!

Great little place, bartender was very kind and made sure I was taken care of, the pizza was amazing! Would recommend to anyone. 👍

Small and intimate book store that will make you fall in love with books all over again!

Very knowledgeable staff, I told him what my last book was and he guided me to a great book!

Nice place. Great experience. Feels like a good selection. Great vibe.

Great little spot offering up beer, wine and coffee in addition to a good selection of books.

Great place with a good collection of books. Wine, beer, tea, coffee is served here and there is a pizza place downstairs that is amazing.

Nice bookstore in Tremont has many events throughout the course of the week serves coffee and wine

Really nice place. Cool books,nice people, very decent food drink selection

This place is amazing! Amazing atmosphere, nice workers, great place to hang out and read, eat and drink

Every time that I stop in I find something extremely cool!

Cute book shop a top a restaurant. Parking is on the side & back.

So happy to see that they reopened! The space feels a little bigger than the last location, and they really cover their bases with the inventory. Lots of Bukowski!

Found books on fringe, little known, best sellers, tongue in cheek, serious, series, fiction and nonfiction subjects at competetive prices.

Perfect snacks to munch on and cheap priced books upstairs, good tasting gigantic pizza down.

The Autobiography of Mark Twain Vol 1 at a great price! Lots of surprises here.

So few book stores around. This has that excitement and interest like book stores once had ...and they have beer!

Great food, exceptional blues with Todd Albright.

Nice place to hang out, especially on a dreary day. The coffee is hot and the atmosphere is laid back with some reggae playing in the background

Great prices and selection, good mix of new and used books, helpful and knowledgeable staff.

Interesting vibe, Dont let the size fool you, theres a nice selection of book and magazine titles. I intend to go back.

They definitely mark up their book prices but the place is nice and they have a pretty well curated selection.

Wonderful independent book store.
