We have all your favorite books, even those you haven't discovered yet.
The Fair Go Bookstore is an independent bookstore in the heart of Portland, Oregon. We're a small, local bookshop built by people who simply love books. As true bookworms, we're dedicated to making reading accessible to everyone. We have something for everyone - from fiction to non-fiction, self-help, poetry, classics, health and fitness books, to school supplies. We even have an in-house café where you can sit down and read your new book - or three - right away.
We love books. We're a small group of Portlanders who met in a local book club and decided to open our own bookstore in 2009. Ten years later, we're still here in the heart of Portland, changing the bookstore business, book by book. We do our best to carefully select the books we carry on our shelves to provide you with the best browsing selection. If you're looking for a specific book that we don't currently carry, you can request it, and we'll do our best to get it for you. If you're not sure what you're looking for, take a look around and browse our extensive collection. You can also approach our staff, talk to them about their favorite books, and ask for recommendations. We look forward to seeing you at Fair Go Bookstore!
