They didn't have almond milk, but they have oat, hemp and one other nondairy milk that I forgot. In early afternoon on a Sunday there weren't a lot of baked goods left. I had a cranberry orange scone that was really good. There is some seating with tables. Some stuffed chairs and some hard chairs. There wasn't a lot available on a Sunday afternoon as it was pretty busy. There are books throughout and an area with books. There is a shop area attached to the cafe part. They have lots of unique gifts. And there is a little table for kids to sit and color at. They had crayons and coloring pages. It was super cute! The parking is all street parking. It's near the arena, so if there is an event there parking can be hard to find. I actually tried twice before to visit on a Sunday and couldn't find anywhere to park because there was an event. I think trying to go on a week day might make parking easier.

I had to use the restroom while there and while the handicap restroom is very spacious there were multiple mini flies circling the trash and thus the sink (so washing your hands was gross because of flies circling your head). I also noticed a few flies towards the seating at the middle/back of the store too. The flies kind of gave me the ick, I was wishing for some measures that showed they were trying to take care of their fly problem, but didn't see any. This is a fixable problem. 3 stars for the flies, 4 stars for the overall vibe.

Selection was really well curated and we found something for all ages. Almost everything on the shelf was top rated toys; no junk in here. Whoever stocks this place knows their stuff. Staff super helpful, even checking in the back for something we were looking for. Pricing was fair and saved us a long drive to the mall and let us combine a dinner out. Maybe next time we do a family dinner out and stop by this place after. Glad to see it open! 1st Street needed some fun. Will definitely be back!

Found this cool little bookstore with a very nice selection on old and new books. I'm a fantasy book reader and the selection was great. I found a bunch of old Forgotten Realms books I needed along with a bunch of yellow spine Daw books. Prices were really good with all older books at half cover and anything that fell below $2 was $2. Picked up a stack of 15 at $2 a piece Had the old bookstore vibe that I just love. Could have spent 3-4 hours there but the rest of my group was ready after 30 minutes

It was really cool place. There were a variety of Price points, other media and cute items. There are a variety of new and used books available. They've taken the time to create clear sections with a nice variety. There are even some chairs to kick back in. Just make sure the kitty isn't there first! My husband and I looked around and end up buying five or six books all used in fabulous condition. Inside, there are some seats so you can kinda take a moment to review your book. The service was nicely balanced. We were warmly greeted and because we were in there for a while, asked if there's anything we needed help with for questions on, but mostly left alone to browse. Did I mention kitty cat there? Very chill and gorgeous and friendly. I am very glad we stopped by

Street parking will be your best here and there is a good amount of it around the area. Inside, they have a very spacious setup with books organized nicely by genre.

They have tons of cool events posted on flyers and chalkboards that are worth checking out. I really liked their selection and it's organized really well. I took a couple pictures of books I want to come back for. I just wish the space was a little cozier, though that's not much of something they can help. Personally, I would have a hard time reading underneath the rectangular LED ceiling lights.
