This little hidden gem is amazing! It is a coffee and book lovers dream. An adorable little used book store/library and a delicious coffee shop all in one. The coffee is always perfectly made and the aroma of sweets is always present. The ladies that make the coffee are so kind and thoughtful. It has become our favorite spot to frequent.

Had the potential to be a little slice of heaven. Variety of books, natural lighting, a very good cappuccino. However, the lady behind the counter was not pleasant unless you were a frequent visitor. She greeted all the older women who entered kindly. The shop is laid out wonderfully! 10 women who sat among the tables in the middle of the bookstore to knit, loudly. That area takes up half of the store. I said "excuse me" several times, so that I may view the books. I needed to get close to the books because I'm legally blind. They didn't move and scoffed at me and loudly scooted up their chair with a sigh with each other, when I squeezed by. The same ladies that went right in infront of me before I placed my coffee order & the lady behind the counter said nothing. So...if you're looking for a hidden great cup of coffee...this is the place. If you also like to be treated like a bother, because you aren't a regular, yet, this is also the place. Until customer service is brushed up upon & anyone (despite age or local) can come into the shop and navigate the books to purchase...I'll put my 45 min drive on hold. Just thought I'd stop by after going to the Memorial for Memorial Day. Friendliness/warmness goes a long way for a business.

Nice little book shop / coffee shop. A great variety and amount of used books. Their drip coffee was good too. I had a nice light roast.
Doesn't have a coffee shop vibe, more of a library vibe. Tables here and there to drink your brew and read.

This Place is Such a Magical and Beautiful Part of the Community. Dave and Leslie Have Done So Much to Make it into such a Treasure. It's More Than Just a Bookstore it's a Spiritual Center with so much Love in Every Detail of the Shop.

I could not believe I had to pay$10 plus change for a used book!!! When I got home I checked Amazon could have bought it new for $6.99!! Will not shop there again!! Used book stores should be inexpensive!! The books are used!!

Great Capuccinos, nice quiet atmosphere and friendly staff, especially Lynn. She is always friendly and great to talk to. She also makes you the best Capuccinos. 👌🏼

Good coffee.Had my dog I just wanted coffee and a muffin and was told my dog couldn’t be in the coffee shop. I planned to sit outside but was welcomed. Need to learn customer service.

Rude service and charged ridiculous price for a minuscule amount of cream cheese same with milk in the coffee. Regarding the good reviews ... they are either fake reviews or a different person was working that day, someone happy to have customers and not up charging for every little thing. If you don’t like your job move on and let someone that knows how to be kind to customers work there instead.
