The "3rd place" you've been looking for. We'll, that is, if you love books, cozy atmosphere, great people, lovely tea offerings, localally roasted coffee, plants you can create a home for and live music. Oh, and D&D, and fun things like Terrarium building, like, what?! Anyway, this is the place to go for finding a place to chill, and let your creativity be inspired. Highly recommend 👌 👍

What a beautiful place! Went in for a day date with my fiancé and we really enjoyed our time. Great book new and used, loose tea corner, chess, locally sourced soaps and herbs. So much to take in and enjoy. Wish I could’ve stayed all day! Happy to have something like this in NL!❤️

Since this place opened, I stop in almost everyday just to see the inventory of old and new used books! I bought one today from the early 1900's and I'm in love!!! The shop has everything you could ever hope for; you can browse the many books, you can build your own terrariums, there are fresh herbal teas, incense, sage & crystals and much more!! I'm so excited to have a place to go sit and read or get in a nice board game. The owner Wendy is one of the most amazing women I have ever met! She often has her family there and they too are phenomenal people. Its great to have something like this right in downtown. 10/10 Also there may or may not be a piano you can play, that just sounds lovely.

Great store/coffee, tea shop! They have planting your own plants, new and used books, drinks, books, gifts, and all in a great atmosphere! The owners are so friendly! They have live music and writing groups. It's a great place to check out and stay for a while!

10/10 love this place it’s so much more than a bookstore it’s a place to be relaxed and enjoy your time. We visited and the owner spent time talking to us and showing us the store and everything is locally sourced. It’s finally a space in New London to exist without pressure to leave. We got tea and soda and sat and chatted. We will be back for monthly workshops and are so excited to have found this lovely place!
