The ambiance is beautiful, the service is always excellent, and the food is consistently delicious. They also have amazing coffee and a great drink selection. Everything I've tried over the years has been fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. It's one of those places that always leaves a great impression, whether it's your first visit or your tenth. I always enjoy bringing guests here, and I'll definitely be back again!

This place went downhill. The classic high tea for $44 is outrageous. Nothing classic about it…read more They give you a sandwich with a mini hamburger bun, the scones aren't traditional at all and taste like blueberry cake batter. It's way way way overpriced for what it is. I asked the server if the tea was loose leaf and she said yes so I asked for more hot water. So she brings a pot of hot water. Turns out the teapot didn't have any tea in it so the staff just don't think. The server tried to take the order by memory and then she couldn't so I had to repeat the entire order so she could write it down. Then she still forgot to add a main course, so that came out late. When I was working in a restaurant I would have at least offered to pay for the coffees because of that kind of mistake. I asked another server for the bill. Instead of walking 5 ft to the till he wonders around the entire restaurant trying to find our server. I just don't get it. It would have saved myself and him time. Everything is just way overpriced for what it is. Nothing blew us away and there isn't anything we couldn't make at home for a fraction of the price and better. We have been to this place before but it will have to take a lot to convince me to try this place again.

I really like this bookstore because they have all kinds of different media and a great selection!…read moreThe books are well organized and they have a nice selection of dvds and records as well. There is also a coffee shop and some seating inside, which I did not partake in on this visit but it's a nice added touch! I also sold some books/media here and the process felt a bit unorganized, but I got a decent amount of cash for my items. Be prepared that it will take a few hours, even if you get there right at 10am, but you can leave and come back or stay and shop around. They also give both a cash option and a store credit option, with the store credit amount being slightly higher. Overall a nice feature in a great shop!

Air-conditioned! Thankfully, considering the intense heat on this side of FL…read more Good stock - a good selection of new and used books and vinyl. Definitely have everything a new collector might want but may not have the deep cuts a long-time collector (like me) would be looking to purchase. Prices - a tad high. But I expected that considering I'm in a metropolitan area. Their rent is probably super high, but I don't mind paying an extra $2-3 per book to keep an independent store open. Regarding those deep cuts: - I did find some authors that I think are often overlooked, including Richard K. Morgan, Chuck Tingle, and Ann Leckie. - I was saddened to see that there was no Ronald Malfi in stock, which I find to be a mainstay in horror. - There was no Between the Buried and Me vinyl in stock, which saddens me due to concert tonight (that's why I drove all the way to this coast). Rating - 4.2/5.0

Other than that I really enjoyed their selection and how everything was nicely categorized. The owner greeted us warmly and tried to see what kind of books I was into so that he could intentionally steer me around his shop, I appreciated it because I only had about 30 mins to peruse. I ended up buying 2 herbal books for a very fair price, he actually told me the prices on the books weren't set in stone. The whole thing was delightful, him and his wife even gave me a locally owned restaurant recommendation.

I've been coming here since before this location and the glow up is unreal. From the craft section to the magazines and the year round book tree....they just speak to everything in my bookish heart. I preach about this store constantly and share with whomever I can about how they take books in all conditions and upcycle them in any way they can. The sweet staff member at the front desk is always so kind and welcoming. Love this community! And you can't beat these book prices from $1-$3!!!! I bought some book pages to make a table runner for my book birthday and it was barely $5!

We stopped in specifically to stock up our Banned Book Bungalow (little free library), and this was the perfect place to do it. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, happy to help and clearly passionate about books and getting them into the hands of readers. You can feel the love for literature the moment you walk in. If you're looking for great books, great vibes, and genuinely kind people, this place is a must-visit. We'll absolutely be back.

A coffee table book of artworks in Ybor City for my friend who loves the area. In great condition and reasonably priced. Awesome. And then I spotted two science fiction books for me that are going onto my shelves. I also bought a bookplate that was in a display at the counter. Eek, $15. But worth it to customize my gift which the very nice young lady put into a bag with some tissue paper to make "gift". Awesome service. Fabulous stuff and that's just the books. There's also all sorts of other vintage and unique antique items on sale. Definite opportunity for gifts and light decor. [Round number review 15800 overall - 1380 in Florida - 1304 of 2021.]

I've been into the shop a couple times; the first time was in their opening week. The owner (I'm…read morenot sure of her name) is so friendly and really loves her collection. This past Shop Small Saturday, I visited with 4 other people and her shop was (safely) bustling. I found a record for $1 outside and I did not have any cash - instead of having me use my card for a buck, she gave me the record for free. These types of small things make people come back and bring other people with them. This is a gem of a store (located just a couple blocks from where I used to live) in Seminole Heights. Check it out and spend some time finding some cool vintage treasures like books, records and furniture.
