Tardigrade's Bookshelf

I like this place. It has such a nice cozy and funky atmosphere. A friend and I came here to catch up, and I had a new fruity coffee, which was very good and he had a Peppermint tea, which was also good. We spent quite a bit of time sitting in comfortable chairs and visiting. There was a book club in the other room. The chairs around the bar were also comfortable and we spent some time there while waiting for our drinks. They only have a couple items right now, like cookies & bars , to eat with your drinks and do not serve other foods. They make all sorts of tea & coffee combinations that you won't find in other places. There are a few books for purchase. Give it a try !

Best spot in town. So grateful this place (finally) opened! They get a lot of things right that we've been missing locally—the lighting is perfect, the atmosphere is cozy, and every mocktail and coffee drink I've had so far has been amazing. Most importantly, though, these people (and the people running the event space in the same building) care about the community. They've already been hosting so many cool, unique events that appeal to a broad range of people, and are clear about being an inclusive place for people to gather. AND they're named after my favorite eight-legged micro-animal! Shout out to the Tardigrade's Bookshelf for blessing Appleton with this spot.

I made my way here for the soft opening after waiting what feels like forever for this shop to open, and it was worth every minute of the wait. The inside is so cozy, so comfortable, and I immediately knew this would be a home away from home. My husband had a matcha latte, and I had the seasonal iced chai apple cider. Both were amazing! There were plenty of comfortable spots to sit, a good selection of books, and we had the opportunity to meet the owners, as well as the barista Saige. Everyone was so welcoming and kind! I already can’t wait to come back!!

A cozy, welcoming space that's perfect to get together with friends or chill solo. There was a variety of seating and lots of fun drink options. I can't wait to come back!
