What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Coffee was cozily made and the book store has a classic vibe rarely seen these days. Good for a bit of work on the free wifi."
"Great cafe inside a book store. I have enjoyed the coffee and muffins very much. I also had the overnight oatmeal with strawberries, and it was a beautiful presentation that really filled you up. I added walnuts and cranberries to my oatmeal for $1. Well worth it. I would have no hesitation recommending this place to anyone."
"Great place to study, read, or write with one of the best hot chocolates I’ve had in a long time. Lots of natural lighting and a complementary rustic-meets-modern atmosphere. It’s the place I’ve dreamed existed and only just found. Can’t wait to return!"
"Great spot inside the bookstore. They have excellent loose leaf tea options!"
"Lovely place to have a quiet coffee and / or a beer!"
"Grabbed a toasted vanilla latte and the avocado toast on an everything bagel. $9.50 for the toast. I think it was very satiating and fresh. Bagel: great...."
