I love this place. I think the people are great, and the food is wonderful. Being able to browse for or read a book in comfort while sipping a cup of their coffee is very relaxing. Their sandwiches are delicious and they offer a wide variety. Enjoy a fruit salad or any number of other treats. A+ in my opinion.

This is a magical place if you like books, eats, and a private little nook to replenish. Have a bite to eat or cup of tea from The Tea Room, its like a place out of Harry Potter's books. Enjoy! 🤓

Best used and rare bookstore in Northeast. Great cafe too. Worth a trip from NYC or Prague.

I love the smell of old books so I love walking into John Bale. Very cozy book store in downtown Waterbury. They also offer breakfast/lunch food is okay.
