Cosy... a great place to sit and read a book with a cup of tea.

Amazing coffee...freshly baked cookies...books all around...you can't get more than this!!! The owner is also warm and courteous....He gave us a tour of their kitchen where they make their own coffee and bake their own goods...A must visit place for a book lover.

Came one morning on our trip for a double cappuccino and oat cake, and was so charmed by the checkered floors, cozy walls of books, perfect cafe playlist, and of course, delicious coffee that we came back three days in a row.The quintessential coffee shop, in my opinion. Just perfect.

It was ok; nice quiet spot for a conversation.The sign said “Special: Hot Apple Cider” but they were sold out; she offered a chai latte which was ok (quite peppery if you like it that way) nice oatmeal raisin cookie/ oatcake.I fee like COVID has impacted their game somewhat - sign said “please stay only 30 minutes”… we stayed longer as it wasn’t busy... best thing about this spot was that the account is permit a decent conversation.

Checkered floors. Used books up the the roof. Freshly roasted coffee in the air. Delicious baked goods. What more do you need from a coffee shop?

Nice atmosphere. lovely drinks. Had the chai latte- mild, but sweet. Great price. Great experience ?

Nice little Cafe. The batista was very nice and made some great coffee. The book selection was cool.

This is a absolute an awesome place and I like it so much!! It makes me find the feeling here as in Shanghai - seat with books and a cup of coffee in a warm and sunny Sunday afternoon!

Perfect spot to enjoy tea time, very unique from most places although I felt it was a bit cramped.

Cute shop, but service was not very friendly, and the 60 minute seating limit gives it an even less inviting vibe.
