I must say I had a good ole time here!

The non-fiction is particularly high quality--and super-affordable to boot. I can get most books there from anywhere from three to twelve dollars, to include detailed academic books that would otherwise be very expensive. I want to emphasize again that it's also wonderfully cozy. It has a couple of cats who really add to the charm (as does the occasional presence of the owner's tiny daughter). Seriously, it's a wonderful place to just linger, to be nice to cats, and to buy books.

With half a dozen copies of War and Peace to pick from, the store reminds me of the good old days of the local, independent book stores. Worth a stop if you're looking for something to read, cheap. Service on my trip was nonexistent, which might have helped since pricing was not obvious. The store is laid out well, so without assistance you can pretty much find what you're looking for. Overall A-ok.

The wine selection is excellent and the staff is lovely. A key element for me is that it's not noisy and chaotic with loud music. Big plus, especially as it has a large table for Bookclub gatherings in the center. So this fits the bill perfectly. Another key for me is lighting. The lighting is also good. They dim it a little in the late afternoon which was nice. The bar is comfortable and pretty with a light marble like bar top and well presented in the background. They also may serve coffee too and have a nice selection of nibbles. Overall a five star for me.

The décor is remarkable - it's clear that the owners were very intentional about making the space feel like art, but also welcoming. Bold colors with lots of windows for natural light, and thoughtfully curated mini spaces throughout the café really make you feel like you're escaping the outside world while letting the sun shine in. And the food - scrumptious. The tomato bisque soup is made fresh onsite and from scratch, and is so delightful. i also have enjoyed their salads and teas. Basically - get thee to The Book Cellar. It's a great spot for catching up with a good friend, reading a new (or old) book, eating yummy food while lounging, and essentially giving yourself a few moments of calm in a space that feels like it was curated for your nervous system. 10/10 recommend.

The decor varied from forest themed knick knacks to trinkets above the book racks definetly recommend giving it a up close look. There's also puzzles, sticker books, even book earrings, bookmarks, journals, and unique book themed candles exclusively made through the shop! The candles included ingredients and scents of items based off of the book for example: Edgar Allen poe, Alice and wonderland and more! Such a great variety of items for the book lover in your life and a great way to support local business. You can also support online - they've got book clubs and more you can sign up for and t-shirts sweaters or tanks you can order online with local wildflowers from the surrounding area included in the image. Definetly recommending for other folks visiting the area as a must see shop!

Their local authors section is extensive as well. And of course the sight of baptismal & choir robes in a book store? Intrigued me immensely. Huh?! Gottwal's merged with a local Christian bookstore so they just happen to carry all your religious paraphernalia... I inquired about their local author book presentations and they informed me that the woman in charge of that works at their original store in Warner Robins. Yay! That's where I grew up. I had no clue that the first Gottwal's originated there & is in the old C & S Bank building, of all places, b/c we used to use that bank, back in the day. A few days later, I trekked down to Warner Robins location to see what I could see. This location is two stories & is filled to the brim with all kinds of titles, games, gifts, etc. Thank you to Macon staff who provided me with comprehensive info even though I got there 15 minutes before closing! Rather than trying to rush me out, they were hospitable & kind, no doubt appreciating another bibliophile. I hope people continue patronizing local businesses, especially book stores, versus always ordering from Amazon out there. Local businesses create & support community & we need more of that, imo.
