I came across it by accident. Just for drinks, so can't comment on the food. Drink was reasonably priced. We sat outside with a most beautiful building opposite us. I ll be back!

We spent an hour or so having drinks here one Sunday afternoon. There wasn't much open,so we were pleased to stumble across this cosy little place. It's a book shop with a cafe and bar.

Cozy place and compfy food. You have to order at the desk and when it's busy, this can take a lot of time...! I wanted the omelette, but the sunday morning I was there this dish was not available ("... no eggs..."). So I had to pick another dish. I asked the girl with (lots of tattoos and nose piercing...

This is a really nice cafe. Although it's actually quite big we went at 6 and the place was packed (mainly with students from the look of it), we had to sit ourselves at someone else's table, but that didn't bother us or him in the slightest. There was a great atmosphere and even though you order at the counter... More

Very comfortable place for breakfast and lunch with a wide variety of menu choices. You stand in line to order from the counter and then they bring the food to your table. Lots of menu choices and everything was good. Definitely worth going to if you are looking for something casual and good.

Good food, and a great buzz about this bookshop-cafe. It's the kind of place where you could while away a few hours while reading, working on your tablet/laptop/mobile, eating tasty food and drinking coffee and indulging in people-watching (if that's your sport :-)) as folk stroll by. I'd be back in a flash.

In a city where most of the cafes have above average food, this place sticks out to me for just average food. I ordered one of the salads there and it wasn't that good, nothing remotely comparable to the other 30+ cafes we've been to here. But, the food is quite inexpensive for its location, so if you're on a... More

Went for brunch our first morning (Saturday) and totally loved it. They open at 10 and we got there just after, and there were only a handful of people in there. By the time we left at about 11:30 after a very relaxing brunch it was filling up, and when we returned Sunday afternoon for a rest stop it was... More

Went here for lunch and the place was very full but we got a table pretty fast. You get a menu and when you're ready you go to the bar and order. We ordered chicken wokand tagliatelle. Both were good. Nice cafe with cozy surrondings and atmosphere. Free wifi. Big

This is a totally charming book cafe with shelves crammed with books and board games etc( and an old books' sales section during daytime hours).The cafe consists of several smaller rooms, some a few steps up from the entrance, some a few down. When we visited, the first room was filled with students(?) working on their laptops and iPads, one... More
