Love this book store so much! It’s such a sweet little spot, and the staff is always so warm and welcoming, even when my toddler is being a monster and I’m desperately grabbing books and trying to get out as quickly as possible.

Wandered in on a rainy Sunday and wow, this is SUCH a cool bookstore. Love the vibe, the vault, and the display of hand-written recommendations with details about why you may enjoy each book. You just don't see that anymore. The whole store really oozes a sense of love for books, as opposed to a love for profit and corporate share price. Will be returning for a few cookbooks and a cool hoodie.
