Search For fifteen years, Balfour Books lived at the heart of Toronto's Little Italy at the corner of College and Clinton. Always a cozy and inviting spot for a daytime destination or an evening's browsing, made all the more so with the help of its resident store dogs (now fondly missed). In September of 2010, Balfour Books moved down the street to a brand new location at 468 College. Our new store is brighter, but our atmosphere is just as inviting. And our shelves still stock the best in used art, photography architecture, design, graphic and illustrated, fiction, poetry, drama, cooking, mystery, fashion, childrens, biography, philosophy and opera books in the city. Come join us for a look.
