The best thing about university towns is that they usually have amazing bookstores. I ended up ordering food here and it was fantastic! Coffee was really great too. This is a great spot to come in, grab something to eat, and hunt for a book. The bookstore has plenty of options, Biden spaces to retreat into to sit down and read. Plenty of outdoor space as well for reading, work, and eating. I’ll be back! Love this place!

I can’t say enough good things about Still North Books & Bar! I had lost my wallet while visiting New Hampshire and, out of nowhere, they reached out to let me know they had found it — even though I’d never even been to their store before. They mailed it back to me and refused to accept anything in return, just saying “Glad you found it” and “Hope all is well.” That kind of kindness and honesty honestly restored my faith in people. If this is how they treat someone they don’t even know, I can only imagine how they treat their customers. Thank you, Still North, for going out of your way to help a stranger — you’ve definitely gained one loyal fan from afar. 💛

Nice bookstore adjacent to a cafe. Lots of new and interesting titles. Cute kids section and several little areas to sit, eat, study, read, etc. They also have a small collection of cute puzzles.

To say anything is quaint in Hanover New Hampshire is an understatement. The entire town is extremely village-esque. This bookstore is no different yielding an impressive number of best sellers and varied hardcover content. The cafe integrated into the bookstore has everything from pastries, cakes, and sandwiches. And for some of the more tempting options they offer wine and beer as well. The service is fantastic and the staff moves in the tiny kitchen to produce what's needed. In short, I'm a big fan of this place and whenever I visit relatives in Hanover, I'm making a point to stop in two or three times. Do yourself a favor and grab yourself a cup of coffee and look over their selection of books. My guilty pleasure is the "coffee table book" section.
