One of the best little local bookstores. Owned by a famous children's book author and his wife. Awesome cafe! We love this place!

Cute little book shop with a coffee shop inside. Staff was very friendly. We were served by a young teenager and were proud of the kind demeanor and eager spirit displayed. Coffee was… not bad, but not great. They had some clever flavor combinations. Almost feels like a rich persons side project to brag that they own a book store with a coffee shop inside and less personal than the “shop-around-the-corner”.
