Downtown Gilbert is about to welcome an exciting new addition for book lovers! The Bookish Box & Shop, a beloved online book subscription service and shop, is opening its very first physical location in the heart of the Heritage District this March.
Taking over the former Level 1 Arcade space, the new bookstore and café will feature curated book selections, author signings, fresh coffee, and delicious pastries—all in a beautifully remodeled setting designed to create the ultimate literary escape.
For those unfamiliar, The Bookish Box & Shop is well known in the book community for its monthly subscription boxes, featuring special edition books, exclusive author content, and book-themed merchandise. Founded by a Gilbert local who was born and raised here, the company has grown into a must-visit destination for book enthusiasts around the world.
With its upcoming brick-and-mortar debut, Bookish will bring its unique bookshop-meets-coffeehouse experience to Gilbert, offering a place for readers to gather, explore their next favorite story, and enjoy a cozy, welcoming atmosphere.
The owner, a proud Gilbert resident, shared her excitement about opening the shop in her hometown, saying,
“I’ve always dreamed of having a physical space where readers can come together. Downtown Gilbert is the perfect home for Bookish, and I can’t wait to share this space with the community.”
The fresh remodel will reflect a modern, cozy aesthetic that invites book lovers to relax, sip a handcrafted latte, and browse a curated selection of books—from bestsellers to special editions you won’t find anywhere else.
With plans for regular author signings, bookish events, and a welcoming community vibe, The Bookish Box & Shop is shaping up to be an exciting new hotspot for Gilbert’s literary scene.
