I absolutely love living in a neighborhood that's home to a bookstore like this. A creative and collaborative concept for like-minded people. There's always a basket in front of the store filled with free things for anyone in need.
Books on politics, social issues, etc. to browse through and buy. Often meetings are held here for organized activism and more.
They serve some food very minimal that I've yet to try but the coffee is good.
I like to buy gift certificates here for friends and families.
If you're thirsty for knowledge and passionate about books give this place a whirl. You won't regret it.
