Reviews

This is an amazing concept!  The bookstore is curated and has a very comfortable feeling.  When I walked in I felt at home even though I knew no one nor did I meet anyone. I went about 10pm on a Friday night and the place was lively.  There was no place to sit but it wasn't over crowded either.  There's a bar and coffee.  It is not the kind of place you settle in a seat and quietly read but it gave me the feeling of being at a friend's house where a bunch of us met up to hang out, have a drink and enjoy each other's company.

This is a fantastic concept, very well executed. An unassuming home in a residential street that is a bookstore, case and serves booze. They have a nice outdoor space in the back for seating that was going to be used as a concert venue the night I went. I wish Chicago or DC had something similar! They also had great books, not just easy reads/bestsellers from the Times (pics attached).

Ive honestly waited so long to review this place just to attempt to keep one of Dallas Best Kept Secrets still a secret. This place is the best place to try to spend a day working remote or just time to one self to relax. This place is amazing for coffee, a cocktail, or a good read. The events here are great as well. The atmosphere is A+, the staff even better, and the drinks top notch.

really awesome bookstore. Very browsable selection of books with great staff picks. Easy to discover something new.  You can grab a beer or a coffee while you explore.

Im here at least once a week...I love good vibes and coffee. Nice selection of books, music's always nice. A good beer collection, cocktails to die for. Nice spot for hipsters. Limited food menu but the outdoor seating makes up for any limitations. A definite must see attraction!
