Books and Beans

What an adorable little spot! Coffee is crisp and delicious. Atmosphere is chill with plenty of outdoor seating. Dog friendly with water bowls for our fur baby! The food was spot on. Delicious panini sandwich. Highly recommend! Customer service was fantastic too!

Such a cute little coffee spot! Located in Rocky Mount Mills this is a hidden gem. I was passing through and needed some caffeine so I stopped in. Customer service was great and the coffee was delicious. Such a fantastic vibe throughout, cute decor, very clean, and tons of books to choose from. Will be back when I'm in the area.

My best friend and I went in before close and was surprised when after we paid that we were unable to sit and enjoy our beverages and pastries. The short man with glasses at the front desk asked all parties to leave out of the coffee shop. He stayed that they were now closed. We were able to sit outside in 30 degree weather. To me a good establishment would allow all patrons to dine as long as they were in before closing. Very unhappy this happened today

Books and Beans is a great little find. I have been here twice on my way through to get my Covid Vaccine. The location is in a nice little industrial complex, that looks like they repurposed an old building and gave it some great character.

The sandwiches are amazing, and all named after famous authors and novels. The coffees are great too, but something I normally wouldn't get when grabbing a coffee surprised me, their chai.

Probably the best chai I've tasted very well made! If you're looking for a great sandwiches and good drinks this is a great spot to try.

Stopped in for breakfast to go, sandwich wasn't cooked per request. Coffee was not made per request either. There are better places to get coffee in Rocky Mount. I do not recommend this establishment to anyone.

Amazing experience! Got the great gatsby sandwich, the chipotle aioli was AMAZING!! Chai tea latte was great too! Great, welcoming environment and great decorations. The encouragement to read a book (wide variety) was really cute! Staff were super kind and service was quick! Great price for the food!!

Very calm and historic coffee shop, the decor and set up was super cute, the baristas were very friendly and seemed to enjoy their jobs (I asked for something cute, and they attempted to do some art on my latte) so I give them an A+ for effort!!

Would most definitely go back!!

My friend and I went here this morning and it is such an amazing place. The food was define and the staff were so nice. We have plans to come here again, I highly recommend.

What a gem! If I lived in Rocky Mount, I'd be sure to be a regular here. Fantastic vibe, coffee, and (best of all?) selection of books! I love the library idea... wish I were around to take advantage of it.

This is such a lovely, clean, friendly little cafe. We stopped in on our way back to Raleigh from OBX for a bathroom, coffee and snack and we loved the experience.

Family own and run, adorable theme and decor. You should absolutely stop in if you’re nearby!!
