This bookstore is a co-op, and I feel lucky to be able to own a little piece of it! Although the selection is not as large as you would find at a bigger store, it is clear that every book has been selected by an actual person, not an algorithm (and the variety of regional-interest and Indigenous titles is probably better than at most bigger stores!). There are also fun gift items, toys, games, and tea to round out the offerings. The staff are lovely, and even when I have been looking for an esoteric book, they have done everything they can to help me find it, even if that has on occasion meant relinquishing business to another establishment.

This place is the most incredible hidden gem in all of billings. Outwardly it is an unsuspecting bookstore, but once you enter, it is a nerdy tea enthusiasts dream!If you love tea (and a variety of it at that) then this place has got you covered.If you love books, this place has used and new books as well as nerdy paraphernalia!If you love boardgames they have some open for play and some to buy!I will be a regular customer here!

Liberal bookstore. Lots of titles on White Fragility. Unique stuffed Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Tried to buy 2 books. No prices and complete failure to offer a price. I left with nothing. Lady was Nice but clueless

Wonderful independent bookstore. I feel lucky to have This House of Books in our community. If they don’t have something in stock, they’ll do a special order. This is the only place I buy my books!

As a Montana expatriate, I can confirm that this state has an excellent array of independent bookstores per capita. Of all the ones Ive been to, this is my favorite. Every time Im here I find a book Ive wanted to read. Their selection is excellent and I love the environment.

I could have walked away with mountains of books. great prices, lovely staff, wonderful atmosphere!

The people there were friendly & helpful.

Perhaps the most wonderful bookshop Ive visited. While limited, the book selection is fantastic and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable.

Friendly staff. Was able to find an activity book for my grandson there. I looked everywhere and couldnt find one and this place had a variety. Love their hot teas.

I looked all over online for books on Montana. I needed a closing gift for dinner clients. I should have started here. They had a huge selection and I found exactly what I was looking for.

A community-owned bookstore with a tea bar, game night, beanbag chairs for kids, constant author and community events ... why would you ever leave?

A wonderful independent bookstore with bestsellers, regional favorites, and a good selection of teas. Masked for your safety.

Great customer service! Definitely will shop there more often.

Nice array of regional authors and history. If they dont have it, theyll order it. Great selection of teas. Puzzles, games and more. Love it!

This is a gem in downtown Billings. They have lots of local and Montana books and a great atmosphere. Be sure to go check them out and support both a local business and local authors!

Gus is fantastic, friendly, and knowledgeable. House of Books also supports local authors, and sells wonderful tea. My wife and I had boba tea from here and loved it!

Disappointing experience due to staffs less than welcoming demeanor, and complete lack of any form of courtesy. Prices and selection definitely not worth it.0/10. Dont recommend.

Gus (the Manager) was a friendly, knowledgeable and fantastic! The place has an amazing homey feel like a gigantic custom built library only made for the enjoyment of those who visit. And it comes with tea!

Love this bookstore! Staff is always super friendly. I’m guaranteed to find a good read, and snag some delicious tea as well!

For a tea lover and literature enthusiast there is no place better than this wonderful store. I spent several hours over several cups of tea writing and enjoying the peaceful ambience. My writing was all the more epic for the inspirational movie soundtracks coming through the speakers (I hope). My children enjoyed the wide game selection available for sampling, and they were welcomed to play to their hearts content.

This store has a fantastic selection of books from this region and state - not to mention a library of tea aswell.

Outstanding experience! I called ahead to see if they had any journals for my niece as a Christmas gift. Very polite and new right away and said he had plenty to choose from. Drove down there and easy to find. Went on and great atmosphere customer service was top notch will be returning soon.

Loads of books and games. Great selection of tea.

Nice charming bookstore. Locally owned. Comfortable, cozy, with new and used books. They have a game night as well.

Nice tea selection! 👍

Great hometown bookstore- new and gently used books, terrific variety, best tea in town, and friendly helpful manager and employees. Wonderful shop to relax with a cuppa and a book, or find a great gift.

Its a book store, but theres a whole lot packed into it.In the books you get great selections including those from local authors.If youre not into books, theres a fantastic selection of niche card games and board games available. Theres even a game night where you can try them out (though, I must confess, Ive never gone!)If that doesnt suit your fancy, thats fine, theres ALSO a HUGE tea bar with pretty much every variety of tea you can possibly fathom.The people that run this place are amazing, and the store really is a treat. Next time youre downtown, check it out.

Very cool little shop. The selection of books reflects a love of good literature that falls outside the beaten path. Wonderful tea bar and they host excellent events for writers and local poets.

This gem of downtown Billings is the place to get books and tea. A great atmosphere, incredible tea assortment, and all the books you are looking for (and they can order just about anything). Conveniently located in the heart of downtown Billings, this bookstore also happens to be the best place to find hard to find books from local and regional authors.

An eclectic shop with plenty of good reads and variety of boardgames. A great place for tea and friends.

I love this place! Gus always makes me laugh and games every thursday are always a blast! They also have amazing teas!

I love This House of Books! Its a great little co-op that has game nights and a tea bar. I dont even like tea that much and the friendly staff has always been able to find something for my taste.

Lovely little store

Went to a book signing. Very intimate. Ver friendly. Great selection.

I buy my books here and books for my grand daughter plus its a great place for gifts and games!

Friendly staff wonderful teas, love it!

Awsome evrything

Great variety of teas, friendly staff that goes out of their way to accommodate their customers needs and even learn their names, and they offer board game demos on Thursdays. If they dont have a product, theyll order it for you. Fun place.

You love books and tea. Then this is the place for you. I love going here on Thursdays for game night. They are awesome to co op with as well.

This is a wonderful independent bookstore! I wish I had more time yesterday to explore every area.

Great local book store that supports local authors. Wonderful selection of teas to sip while you browse.

Game night on Thursdays, good selection of games with the option of special ordering, good variety of books both used and new, and a lot of tea.

Wonderful atmosphere, Good Prices, And the tea selection is Fantastic. Such a great ambience all around.

This book store is on its way up, and since its a co-op, you can actually own a piece of it.Fantastic teas of all sorts to drink while looking through the merchandise, and if you ask for advice the staff can help you find what you like or something you never knew youd like.

Never met an establishment with nicer employees. If you want the best bubble tea in billings then you go here! While waiting for your drink(they have more than boba like hot chocolate, regular tea(iced/hot/with or without milk), different sweeteners(vegan options), and I think there was lemonade too) you can sit reading books which you can buy to finish at home. There are lots of comfy places to sit, and they have plenty of events like game nights, author meets, book clubs. Its a really great place here in billings. If you want to try a new tea I recommend their blue banana oolong with wjole milk and sweetener(they make signature blends which are so tasty!).

Nice place

Nice low key bookstore. Great source for local books.

Wonderful place to browse, have coffee, look for gifts, invest in authors. Will return!

Different, non Amazon books. Great

Pathetic selection of books. Pathetic selection of everything, really. The store feels half-empty. Weird atmosphere. Hasnt been the same since the old manager left.

Book selection is awesome, staff is always helpful, and I LIVE for a galaxy lemonade.
