GREAT coffee. I come here almost every morning during the week days and the staff is always in amazing spirits and very kind. I always feel welcome here with my toddler in tote. Very nice atmosphere and very nice space in the back to chill and hangout. Love this place and highly recommend!!

Stories is the Goldilocks of bookstore's. New and used books live fearlessly side by side. A fantastic local section reside near a truly perfect children's section. I was on the hunt for a specific printing of Alice Through the Looking Glass; I was shown five different versions to choose from. The cafe is outstanding and the back patio is charming.

I came in here to find a book about a giant bug and the tall gentleman with glasses behind the little computer said "can you be more descriptive?" I have never been treated so rudely by a tall gentleman before and I asked him his name. "Alex" he said, although I'm pretty sure that's not really his name, I've met Alex's in the past and they were much nicer. Seeing as how he was the only book man available to help me I was left no choice but to continue my desires with "alex" and his stubborn refusal to apparently block out his own knowledge (or lack of) the book I was looking for about a big bug. I could see that I was getting no where so I figured perhaps he might have a book about mattress's from around the world. He again gave me this sleepy kind of confused look as if I was asking for a book about nursing or something crazy. I'm no nurse. Nor do I want to learn about being one, what I do want to learn about is the big bug or various mattresses. "Alex" suggested that I perhaps browse the self help section, obviously inferring that thier was some thIng wrong with me, I have had this happen to me at other bookstores only to have the book man slip his dirty phone number into the book I purchased(even though it was never the one I was looking for) Im not a gay, and I certainly don't appreciate being hit on by book men who think there is something wrong with me. If it wasn't for vegan triple sugar free chocolate gluten free fudge cake I would only come here to buy books on nursing.

Lovely building/atmosphere, excellent coffee, a varied selection of used and new books at decent prices, plus I found some bookplates there, which was awesome.
