Our philosophy

You are a book junkie on withdrawal?
You want to make someone happy and are looking for a gift - for a birthday, Christmas or just because?
You are magically attracted to bookstores?
You can't walk past a bookstore without wanting to go inside?
You are just looking for the perfect vacation read?
You want to know what's in the cooking pots?

or quite simply - YOU LOVE BOOKS -
then you've come to the right place - welcome to the Bachletten bookshop!

In Basel's smallest and manageable bookshop you will find a wide and well-kept range of books from almost all thematic areas - from hotly debated bestsellers and ever-young classics to murderously exciting thrillers, unusual books for young people and lovingly designed children's books.
