Mrs. Dalloway's - Orders & Special Services

We love to help people find the books they’re looking for, or suggest books they might not know they’re looking for. We will happily order any books we do not carry or, if you’re in a mad rush, send you to a bookseller friend that does. We can fulfill a Christmas list, grant a birthday wish, compile a summer reading list, start a newlyweds’ cookbook shelf, grow a gardener’s library. . . . Come into the store and tell us about your garden. We will do our best to find answers to vexing questions regarding the needs of your plants on our well stocked bookshelves.

We host many in-store events, from literary readings to gardening demonstrations to artists’ receptions, so check often in News & Events. We can also sell books at outside events that you host. Just give us the particulars and enough advance notice.

You can order books from us by phone (510.704.8222), fax (510.704.8228) or e-mail (orders@mrsdalloways.com). We offer free delivery in the Elmwood (and to Alta Bates Hospital), and we ship worldwide. For garden and art items it’s probably best to phone or come into the store for a chat.
