So awesome to have an Independent bookstore locally in Buda. Great selection of kids and young…read moreadult books along with fun games and gifts. The best thing is the staff suggestions if you need a quick gift for birthday presents. I bought all my Toys for Tots gifts there this weekend with the help of the staff and a great small business Saturday discount. Amazing value for all the gifts I was able to get. Picking out things for all ages, boys & girls was so fun.

We found this place due to looking for independent bookstores when we travel. This one is tucked…read moreaway in a nice little spot. Parking is pretty good. It is not super big but it makes great use of the space it has tons of pre loved books, stickers, various gifts, oracle and Tarot cards, witches candles and so much more. SHANA SAYS: Super cute atmosphere, fun organizing of the books like pre loved, and lots of cute gift items. Plus a cat with its own hours! Kathy was super friendly and helpful. Made the whole experience better and is a genuine person. They do have a game room and a snack bar with free water as well as a keuring and snacks for sale. The bathroom is for everyone and they are very welcoming. Of course as an independent bookstore they have a wide variety of titles with some new books thrown in. They do mystery sells and bundles where you get a vague description of a book that is covered up and you take a chance. It should go without saying but as you are supporting local businesses the prices are a little higher the HPB or Amazon but it means more here and you should buy local when you can. I highly recommend this place. They even have a section where if you spend $50 you get to choose a free gift from books to sunglasses to other items. Go in, say hi to Kathy and The Cat!

I like to look around the bestseller areas to get inspiration for books to find at the library, and sometimes I'll read online books on my phone in the Starbucks area after getting a drink. The shopping center it's inside of has lots of other stores too, it's not a bad place to take a little walk.

We always bring our out of town guests here & it's always a hit :)

We were visiting with a large group and strolled around here for almost an hour. I loved the different sections and high ceilings.

A great way to support local on your next drive between Austin and Houston, or simply if in the neighborhood! The entire strip is really cute with a variety of shops, art, food, and live music.

I'd rather support the underdog. They've got used & new books, music on various formats, movies on various formats, magazines, kids books, and gifts. They (still) buy & sell. Not much has changed with their business platform and I like it. This location has a lot of offerings & everything is well-organized. Whether you want a banned book, a book on queer history, a cookbook, or a romance novel, they've got something for everyone. Clean store. Friendly staff.

This bookstore is one of Austin's best hidden-in-plain-sight gems…read more It's tucked away just three blocks from downtown in a beautiful old two-story house that has been turned into a bookstore, wine bar, and coffee shop. Each room has its own type of books, along with original artwork, so it feels fun just wandering from room to room. There are plenty of places to sit inside, plus outdoor seating on both floors. If you head upstairs, you'll find a great view of downtown while you sip a glass of wine and flip through your newest book. The staff really know their books and their wine, and I love that you can walk around the store with your glass in hand while you browse. My only suggestion would be to add a small collection of vintage magazines. I'd probably never leave.

The cafe is run by an independent business and has an extensive drink + food menu to eat onsite as well as freshly made casseroles and entrees to take home. The store also supplies artisanal local products (oils, soaps, etc.), cards, and other cute stationary to explore. They host book clubs and other programming regularly. I could spend hours here! Visit and support this local gem!
