Visiting Powells is a must when I’m in Portland. I can spend hours perusing the art, sci fi/fantasy and children’s picture book sections. Plus, they have a great selection of cookbooks.

If you don't think they suck - - try calling any of their stores after 7pm.....
Hellloooooo their OPEN.... but they could care less about customers calling about anything.... like picking up books that a message said were in - - even though I didn't order any...
And they think Amazon is the evil empire. I want my old Powell's back! The one where they hired people who even knew how to read. People who could not only look stuff up, but actually talk to you about great books while they walked you to that shelf, then pulled out three of the four books they had been talking about.

The greatest book store in the world.
I get a smile on my face everytime I walk through the doors and fill my lungs with the beautiful smell of used books. True book lovers know what I am talking about!
Powells has the best staff of any book store, anywhere. They are polite and know their stuff. You never get that "better than you" vibe here and all are welcome to browse and enjoy their amazing selection or new, used and even rare books. If you visit Portland and do not stop here you are missing out on an experience of a lifetime. I come here everytime I am in town.

Best bookstore in Oregon, and probably the nation. Great selection of used and new books, all laid out in a rambling multiple-story space that takes up a whole city block. Book lovers' dream.

Since there are many, many rainy days in Portland, keep yourself entertained and out of the weather by browsing the aisles of Powell's. The selection of books is hard to beat. Don't forget to check out the coffee shop while you're there.
