The Bookstore Bar & Café

One of my favorite spots in the city to catch up with a friend. High booths , comfortable seating and it's not too loud . The breakfast and brunch are amazing--something for everyone.

The pulled pork sliders are divine! Best ones I've had in a long time. The cider was good, as were the bleu cheese fries , especially for someone who isn't a big fan of bleu cheese .

Just ate a delightful breakfast here - their granola is phenomenal, tastes like a German pfefferneuse cookie , and the raspberry jam for my English muffin was bright and tasty. Svc was excellent.

Negroni is a kick in the mouth in the best possible way. Late night happy hour - get the lamb meatballs

Oysters on the half shell is the best thing on the menu. Throw in a few whiskey gingers and you've got a perfect meal!

Cozy atmosphere , perfect for a rainy afternoon chat with a friend.

They'd never heard of the Aussie flat white , but made an effort to make one anyway. "Green"s turned out to be just rockets. Bacon here is quite different to AU bacon . Poached eggs were swimming .

Love this place, especially if you just want to hang out either alone to read their stacks of old books in their library , or a magazine with dinner or a drink, or with a friend.

I'm wondering....do they feel they should not offer to get you a new drink or wait on you so you can relax, orrrr???

Quite possibly the best hotel-associated bar I've ever been to. Wonderful service, food and spirits .

For me, the renovation is nice, but preferred old version. Service is the same. Very compatible to other high end hotel bars .

Not the best place if you're a wine drinker like me. But, if you're into scotch , they have an amazing selection!

Quite, hidden place with super helpful staff who'll serve braekfast during lunch and vice versa

The burger is one of the best I've ever had. And in a bit of a burger expert.

Must have breakfast here is delicious and amazing coffee

Good cocktails well made. And if not sure, sweet vermouth on ice will make anyone happy

Cozy spot to eat and read.

Blue fries and bloody Mary's are amaze-balls!!! Have Steven make it!!!! Emily is super fly!!!

The corn beef hash is crazy, crazy good. Every restaurant makes theirs a bit different. This one is stunning.

The oysters are outstanding. If nothing else, stop in and try a dozen.

Great collection of single malts and other whiskeys . Food ranges from good to fantastic. Staff are awesome! Read more

Clam chowder is fantastic. I contemplated ordering a second bowl.

The avocado toast is very good

Always the right proportions! Yum.

The 'Power Lunch ' special is a great deal! Choose from a menu of soups , 1/2 salads , 1/2 sandwiches , or dessert : 2 items for $10 or 3 for $13.

Cute spot for happy hour and snacks !

Great vegetarian options ! Delicious food :-). Cozy .. Great little hidden gem !!

$17 avocado toast offends even my new yorker sensibilities

Best clam chowder . Amazing cocktails .

Roast beef sandwich is delic.

The drinks are kind of overpriced and the venue is small, but I really like the decor and atmosphere.

I have left a coupon for a free drink in a copy of the Umbrella Guide to California Lighthouses at the Bookstore bar . Let me know if you find it!

HH 4-7pm daily, food specials $4-7, drinks $4. Cozy little pub library . Friendly staff .

These whiskey cocktails ...I tell ya

Unbelievable scotch whisky selection . Highly recommended.

Bookstore bar

This place is now called The Bookstore Bar

Had a bad experience here. Checked my statement a few days later they added 10 bucks tip for themselves. I called them to dispute and they never got back to me. Drinks were so so. Never coming back.

The $5 Bookstore Burger is a great happy hour value.

Good concept, frustratingly lackadaisical service.

Service is super slow but fish and chips and bloodymary pretty good

Beet salad . Get it. Enough said.

Nice service , food was just alright

The crab hogie? Beyond amazing :)

Irish coffee

love this place

Crystal is a kick ass bartender .

The Corned Beef Hash is decadent.

They have great books here... Cough drinks

Get a scotch flight of the expressions you can't buy in WA
