    I have been here at least 3-4 times in the past week, and that pretty much sums up how I feel about this place. Such a magical place. I don't even know where to begin. This cute and homey cafe is located on Magnolia. It's almost hidden and I have driven past this location multiple times. They have a plethora of yummy baked goods that are freshly made each morning. Each time I have entered, there is something new to try. My personal favorite is the almond chocolate toffee muffin. Did I mention that their matcha is yummy and only $4.50 for an 8 oz cup? I had the best time eating and drinking my goods while reading my book the other day. Seating is limited, however, my favorite spot is next to the bookshelf and window overlooking Magnolia Street. Such a pretty sight, especially on a sunny day. They also have book-friendly curated events and novelties in the cafe. In one corner, there is a 'blind book date' section where you can pick out a book based on the blurb written by the sharer. In the other corner, there is a section where you can write little motivational messages for anyone to read or pick up. They also have sparking tea's! Good variety of things to try here, you won't get bored :)

    A friend picked up a few desserts from Leaves Bakery. We really enjoyed them, especially the unique flavors. They use fresh and high quality ingredients for their cupcakes and cookies. They're perfect for a sweet treat.

    What a cute little shop! I really enjoyed the smaller intimate space here. Design of the shop inside is just very well thought out, and aesthetically pleasing. It was very quiet inside with very many options on literature to read, and new book releases for purchase. They are also very community involved with many events for bibliophiles. I feel this would be a great way to meet authors and hear them speak, future authors, writers and other like minded individuals to come together. I love a great book club. Large assortment of different teas to enjoy while you work, or catch up with a friend. The staff are amazing and had great tea recommendations. Situated on the southside next to Tulips, many spaces for street parking with ease.

    Great location. I love that side of town b/c it's not showy, but it's a cool place to be without all the hipsters crowding the area. :D The tea here is fantastic. I had to try the tea on tap immediately b/c ....uh hello? Fizzy tea! It was so good. I got the sparkling honey ginger along with a sweet treat from 3 danes bakery. It was all so delicious. I should have gotten another tea to go. :D The shop itself is beautiful. It's very clean, well laid-out, very cute and plenty of space to hang out, read, work on work, study, etc. it was a very welcoming atmosphere. Will be bringing some friends with me next time :D

    This is a cute new shop in the Near Southside area. It is a cute book shop with simple, clean decor. Books are organized by topic: you'll find a novel nestled next to a biography next to a book on theory. The inspiration/anticipation is that if you read a couple of books from the same topic your horizon will be expanded. Bookstore, yes! BUT they also serve tea!! They have iced and hot brews. Nuanced blends and interesting flavors. THAT'S NOT IT!! They have tea on tap 2-3 varieties. Not sure what that means? Sparkling tea, guys! Yep, tea that bubbles like a crisp, smooth beer... without the hangover. So. Good. Go. Try. Return.

    Cute little shop in a growing part of Fort Worth. We were surprised they were open on New Years Day, as everything else in the area was closed. Pleasantly surprised. There isn't a large selection of books but had an interesting collection. One corner is dedicated to local authors, which I thought was very cool. There is a nice mixture of seating that was comfortable and the atmosphere is relaxing. The woman behind the counter was friendly and explained the teas to us. There is a box on the counter with their selection, so you can smell their offerings. Sounds weird, but is very helpful when deciding what to order. I chose the iced coconut chai. The aroma was lovely though the flavor was mostly just chai. I enjoyed it and the cute little handled mason jars it was served in. I wish I could have sampled the sparking teas as that sounds interesting. It is $4 for an iced tea and $3 for hot. There weren't any pastries on the day we came in, but it was New Years Day. It was a fun stop in an interesting area and I will be back around check out more of what the southside has to offer.

    I came across this gem over the weekend. It's set off in a developing area just south of downtown. Street parking was readily available. The inside of the tea and bookstore is charming. There are interesting shelves with a good selection of books. As soon as I walked in I was greeted by the staff. They explained all the different teas and offered samples. I went right for a slice of delicious looking cake that turned out to be a chocolate Earl Grey cake. It was as tasty as it looked. I decided to wash it down with some iced Earl Grey. The tea was perfectly steeped and tasted amazing. I suggest you take a trip and try it out sometime. It's a great place to have some tea, read a book, and relax.

    Matcha tea high quality perfection, meticulously prepared in ceremonial style. Not many businesses offer this and the ones that do dont prepare it properly or thoroughly with the wisk.

    Lemon cake!

    Went for the matcha but it was way too watery. Only decent one is the lavender matcha but even then it didn't taste great

    Really nice and quiet place to eat and study. I expected it to be more of a bookshop than tea shop but I still loved the vibe of the place.

    Spoiler Alert: Don't come to this place expecting to pull up to a house that has books in it!…read more That was exactly what I did and was shocked when I pulled up to a leased corner spot of a large building. Not to be disappointed or discouraged, I forged ahead inside, only to be completely delighted! Inside it really did feel like a house with books. The ambiance was fun, thoughtful and creative, and actually brought pages of the books within to life. The service here was friendly and warm. The young lady at the counter greeted us warmly and was helpful answering the many questions we had. If you are into bookstores, this is a "don't miss it!".

    Indie bookstores are my favorite - and this space is adorable! It's not big, but it's packed with…read moregreat books, beautiful decor, and even a used book area. Personally, I love stores with personality. You know the place, where there are little built ins for sitting, and slanted walls, and a wall of vintage books designed as art that make you stop and just want to take it in. Thats this place.... Just charming. The kids section is pure magic! Whomever designed it did it thoughtfully. There's a top shelf that really paints the picture. It has an umbrella with clouds on it, along with crowns and swords. It just makes you want to hang out in this room all day. And this room is filled with stories waiting to be told. Books waiting to be read. Chairs waiting for children to sit in them. Just lovely!
