This place is so cool! We just came to shop but it was so fun to wander around here for a while. So many wonderful books and trinkets to choose from! Great shop!

Possibly the most enchanting bookstore I've ever had the pleasure of wandering through. There is something for everyone here and things to peek at in every nook and cranny. Grab a drink from the café at the front on your way in, and enjoy.

This place is lush. A perfect place to come have a coffee and read, and to spend a few calm hours in an otherwise chaotic city.The drinks and snack selections were great. And the book store itself was stunning.An absolute oasis.
