The Bookworks

A dream. It's an ideal coffee place, they have everything you could wish for a coffee shop to have

Rediscovered this place recently. Now I'm in love with the little library in the back. Not needing to mention that their coffee is amazing too. Only if they're working times or a little bit longer in the evening so I could go there after five when I am finished with my work.

Do not go here if you want great coffee. Quality of espresso is less than Starbucks, very mediocre, especially for the price. Perhaps people go for the charm of this location but if you’ve ever experienced really high quality espresso you’ll be extremely disappointed here. The blueberry muffin was worse than store bought, the berries were bitter ( frozen?) and the muffin was stale. It almost tasted like corn meal, a really weird flavor. Whoever owns this place is just taking advantage of tourists that don’t know how bad it is, I doubt there are any regulars that come here. Nothing here was different from any chain store restaurant, very low quality and very expensive. Anyone that knows how to bake a muffin, which is not difficult at all, could have done a better job, the people who work here just don’t care, neither do the owners. No sense of passion about wanting to give you an amazing experience, these people just care about how much profit they can squeeze out of this joint. Why not create something truly special and earn customer’s loyalty as a way to run a business? It seems like this location attracts a lot of business owners that just want to trade off location for piss poor quality food at exorbitant prices.

Wonderful little neighborhood bookshop with helpful, friendly staff. I stopped in for a copy of Cannery Row (what else?), and received just what I was after, plus a lovely little anecdote about the author’s family.
