Bakka-Phoenix Science Fiction & Fantasy Bookstore is an independent bookstore in Toronto, Ontario, which specializes in science fiction and fantasy literature.

History

Bakka was started on Toronto's Queen Street West in May 1972 as a combined science-fiction and comic book store called Bakka, a name taken by founding owner Charles McKee from a Fremen legend in Frank Herbert's novel Dune. The comic book business split off early on, becoming The Silver Snail, originally located on the opposite side of Queen Street West.

Bakka published Bakka Magazine from 1975-77.

The store moved in March 1998 to 598 Yonge Street in Toronto, the same building as the Glad Day Bookshop, and relocated in March 2005 to 697 Queen Street West in Toronto.

In November 2010, the store moved again, this time to larger quarters at 84 Harbord Street, adjacent to the main campus of the University of Toronto, in the Harbord Village neighbourhood.
