Vraiment un fabuleux concept que de mélanger un café avec une librairie! En tant que grande amatrice de café & de livres, je suis forcément conquise. Je me suis sentie très à l'aise pour travailler tranquillement un mercredi matin. Je reviendrai dès que l'occasion se présente!

Easy-going place. Drinks are lacking & lukewarm. The way they presented the drinks was basic, & a bit messy even though it wasn't busy. They weren't stressed, a good thing of course. They weren't on top of things however; missing ingredients to make drinks which they didn't check until after they said what was available. There wasn't much to buy for food, a few old muffins, none of it standing out either. We didn't eat there.

You may study in peace unless you see a crowd together at the biggest table. They display books you can read & purchase.

It's a place you'd enter on a whim, unsure whether to stop by again but might think about after a first experience.

I personally decided to try visiting to meet a friend for the quieter space from the reviews I read through while searching for quiet café spots. I was pleased it wasn't crowded, but it wasn't as quiet as I hoped it to be. We are both soft-spoken. It would have likely have been a better experience if the biggest table wasn't occupied by the large group as they were quite loud. Nothing bad, just straining on the ears & we had to speak louder than was comfortable. We were there for a long while regardless, enjoying each others company.

Giving 2 stars overall for the mediocre service... I came here twice, & on both times the baristas were confused AF, didn't know how to serve people by the right order, didn't know their own food items (gave us a raisin muffin, told us it was a pecan muffin), didn't know which orders are for here & which orders are to go.. it was an absolute mess

I love their coffee & the atmosphere of books & couches. My only complaint is that often I walk in & no one is at the counter; I am not sure if that means they are understaffed but it had happened too often to be a coincidence. I usually go for the mocha...& their breakfast sandwich but the machine has been broken for awhile it seems.
