An incredibly cute bookstore. Love the little kid book section area. Yummy drinks at the cafe.

Beautiful store, lovely collection of books, and absolutely delicious coffee

The space is very tight and dominated by the café part. It was very claustrophobic looking at the fiction section where there isn't a huge selection. The employees weren't very friendly and a few gave me a side eye. Maybe I'm not the preferred clientele. I only went because I had a gift card but I will stick to Barnes and Noble for my new books.

Oh my goodness this was one of the best and cutest bookstores I’ve ever seen. And their coffee was amazing. I got a butterscotch cafe breve and oh my it was good. If you are in Waco please do yourself a favor and check out this bookstore.

Really cute book store with coffee and wine to boot! They have a lot of books, so great selection. Coffee is good with lots of comfy seating and work spaces. There's a kids section that's super cute, complete with a Narnia-like wardrobe entrance.

Whenever I have time, I go and flip through a small book. It's a relaxed atmosphere, so it's easy to go and I want to sit there for a long time.

We just love this bookshop. I try to make it over here any time I need a new book, or suggest it as a place to meet with a friend. They have great drinks, serve great cookies from Milk Bottle, and have such a carefully curated collection of books and merchandise with thoughtful input from all their team.Have returned several times and will continue to do so.Also, I particularly love the effort that went into designing the various spaces in this shop. There are study spots, puzzle spots, conversation spots, classic cafe table spots, and a single kids room that is somehow endlessly engaging for my children, lol!Photo of my youngest enjoying the best cookie either of us have ever had

By far the best locally owned and operated bookshops in the Waco area. Great books, great online ordering system, excellent customer service, and fantastic beverages! It's just a delightful place and we love it so! This is one of those places that just makes the town of Waco even better!

Neat interior. Fun assortment of books and reading related items. When we visited, there was a drinking spelling bee going on

Ryan Wallace

Super cute little coffee shop and small bookstore.

Sleepy Meow

It is a large book store with a variety of books and notes from staff’s recommendations, which looks sweet.

Really good coffee and a great selection of books. They have several "staff picks" where they tell you about the books of every genre. Every employee i spoke to was very friendly.
