Atmosphere is amazing. Cute and cozy book nook vibe while having a cafe inside. We were visiting from Calgary and this place really catches the vibe all book shops should have. The staff are really nice and helped me pick my next read. Would definitely recommend

What a fantastic concept! I've been there twice now and had a good experience both times. The selection of books is wonderful and trendy! Great spot to take your favourite book worm!

Charming and whimsical local bookstore and coffee shop in Montréal. Even during their busiest hours the employees still find time to recommend books or genres to the customers. A special shout out to Avery and Mathieu who went out of their way to help me find the last copy of a book. Not my first visit and definitely not my last!

Lovely spot, but the shelves have been so disorganized the past few times I’ve visited and it’s been hard to find what I’m looking for. The staff has been helpful though, and the food/drink is great.

Perfect bookstore / cafe for caffeine addicted book lovers. (And they were playing the habs game on a screen in the back- so sports fans too!) Featuring books in both English and French, they had a wide array of genres, seating options, and menu options!

Awesome bookstore/bar/library all in one! Definitely geared to fans of LGBTQ books and Romantasy. Library area has books in both French and English. It's a bit cramped, but totally cool experience

Fabulous environment. Great selection of books. My daughter forgot her books at home and we needed an English book for her to chill later. They had a large selection. Friendly, helpful staff.

The staff are really nice, and they give helpful book recommendations. Also, definitely try the Guilty Pleasures cocktail--it has an amazing chamomile flavor in it that I have never had in a cocktail before. 😍
