The Alvah Stone

Saw Mill River’s flow anchors the calm and timelessness of the bookshop, with chipmunks & a bowl of oatmeal.

Loved spending the day here and getting a bag full of books 📚📖📚 Such a relaxing place to browse for books, get food, read or just enjoy nature

Beautiful used bookstore with a wide variety of genres. Not only are the books amazing, the view, sounds of the River, and ample cozy seating areas make this book store the best package. I am not a big fan of sitting in a bookstore and starting to read a book, but I did here and would do it again in a heart beat!

The food is unique. The salad delicious. The food boards filling. The coffee.... eh. But the roaring water, that's great. The nearly endless bookshelves is really a sight to behold. And all of the quiet reading nooks. I could see myself reading here if I had the attention span to read. I would like to sit with a podcast and crochet for a bit, but I wouldn't want to take away a plush comfortable chair from someone who actually wanted to read.
