Salve Regina Bookstore

Known For

Campus bookshop with character well beyond the usual textbook stock

Salve Regina Bookstore carries the vintage interior warmth of the university campus it calls home, with exposed brick and cozy nooks that make it worth visiting even if you're not a student. The charming storefront sets expectations that the inside happily meets.

🕐Best time to visit: Early September when the academic energy is freshest

100 Ochre Point Ave, Newport, RI 02840, USA

Our Take

The hand-written shelf notes and vintage interior give this campus bookstore a personality that most university shops don't bother to develop. It's a pleasant surprise for anyone who wanders onto the Salve Regina grounds, even if it's not quite a destination on its own.
