A wonderfully curated bookstore with a cafe and market attached. I come in here for great staff recs on books , lattes , and occasionally wine and beer . They’ll also order you any book they don’t have!

The stix sandwiches make a great quick lunch . Plus, they have decent $1 coffee . If you sit down, their soups and sandwiches are all consistently delicious

I adore bookstore 's and this offered more than the typical large stores. It was intimate and many books available to choose from. They have a small cafe that I will try next time.

Love the sandwiches and salads . The Mac and cheese side dish is big enough for a hearty snack and only $5, but they only have it for dinner !
