StorieBook Cafe - Delis Near Me - Glen Rose, Texas

Super cute, quaint, cozy bookstore/cafe. Service was great and fast. Food was mighty tasty. Place was adorable. I'm sure it's a local favorite, as there seemed to be a few locals there. But if you're driving through or visiting the area, it's a must stop for a bite to eat. A great variety of sandwiches, wraps, salads, and soups. And a delicious unsweetened peach tea that was super refreshing on a hot summer day. Something for everyone. read more

Highly recommend the staff is SO friendly and made sure we were comfortable constantly they have playing cards and small board games at all the tables my wife and I got to play go fish while we waited on food. You have to try the pies we got the coconut crème pie and it was phenomenal so creamy and the crust is flaky it was a perfect finish to the meal! read more

We stopped in for lunch while visiting Glen Rose--what a treat! If you love books, you'll love the ambiance. If you love homemade soups, sandwiches, and desserts, you'll love this place. And if you like meeting the owner and friendly servers, you'll give them 5 stars too! read more

A favorite in Glen Rose! Perfect for lunch with the family. The kids love playing in the playroom while waiting for the food to come out. The food is great. I recommend the chicken salad on a croissant. And the blackberry cobbler, yum! read more

I'm a chicken salad fanatic and I'm telling you...their chicken salad is to die for. The atmosphere is so cute, especially if you have kids. If they have the chicken and dumplings on the menu, you must order it and even if you don't eat it that day, take it to go. Absolutely love this place! read more

Friendly service and good fresh food. The back dining room is a great place to occupy kiddos while waiting for food.

This review is for take out only. Make sure to check out their FB page for their today's special! We had a big group ordering all different kinds of sandwiches. They took the order with no problem and didn't make any mistake. Everyone was happy with their order. Everything was delicious. I had the tuna melt with jalapeno chips. The jalapeno chips definitely packed a lot of kick, just the way I like it! We will make time to stop by for dine in the next time we're in town! read more

This place was great! I came from out of town and the food was delicious. The atmosphere is super cute and chic! The family I was traveling with, their kids had a blast. It was a great experience. I will have to come back! read more

Fantastic, cozy little place, nestled away in Glen Rose. The service was great, the food was excellent, and the atmosphere was unique, adorable, and perfect. Decor was fitting for the cafe name, books-a-plenty, and the music was great. The mismatched furniture and dishes was very quaint and cute. If you're ever within fifty miles of this restaurant, do stop in. read more

So quaint and wonderful! The food was great and the atmosphere was lovely. Bring all your favorite bibliophiles!!

An hour and 20 minutes is too long to wait for a sandwich. Especially in a playroom room of screaming children We left. No sandwich is worth that. Will never be back read more

Such a cute book store, with a cozy atmosphere and good selection of new, used and collectible books.

4 stars just because it's sooooo kid friendly and Iv got Gkids Yaaaay for story book Peach tea is great It's just a home made sandwich place but is really good food read more

Glen Rose is in the middle of nowhere, Texas so it was a surprise to find a delicious sandwich place that is in a bookstore! The atmosphere is cozy and comfortable with books and teacups on the walls. The turkey avocado wrap was delicious!!! The people in here are quirky and friendly. There is a playroom for kids and they also throw tea parties. Very warm and cozy place! read more

Perfect atmosphere of great food and wonderful books. Anything added would detract from the homey charm. The menu is soup, sandwiches, salads, and desserts - and they are exquisite. The Reuben sandwich was well-balanced in its ingredients, and tasty without being too greasy. Plus there are loads of books for sale. Service is very friendly, and there is plenty of space with 10-12' ceilings. Did I mention the books? Floor to ceiling bookshelves with a rolling ladder, well-organized with good selection. A return is certainly on the menu. read more

Great service, great food, awesome playroom for kids! Very family friendly. Will definitely be back next time we're in the area.

Such a cute place with wonderful food. I had takeout. It was quick and fresh when I picked it up. I will definitely stop in again.

One of a kind restaurant with a unique personality and a menu full of creative wraps and sandwiches. Our server was very helpful describing the costumer favorites and the daily specials. I love when you can tell that someone is excited to work at restaurant. It speaks volumes about the management and the overall quality of their food. She was so engaging and happy. We had the ABC sandwich (avocado/bacon/cheese) and it was great, she recommended a green bean salad with a sweet dressing and it was delicious. The soup of the day was Italian wedding and it was also great. As for the kids, one a ham sandwich cut in Dino shapes and our server was very accommodating to my other son's request of a bacon only sandwich. Their peach tea was icy cold and pretty tasty. They had a really great room for kids (A brilliant idea!) full of toys and dress up props, my son was absolutely happy in there. The downfall was that it was very dirty (filthy carpet) and lots of broken toys or inappropriate rusty items. I think that if it is in the restaurant it should receive the same attention to detail as their great food, main rooms and restrooms. Just a mom's point of view... Would definitely recommend for a quick lunch, if you have kids they will love it! read more

Visited during a trip to Glen Rose. Everything was great! Had the veggie wrap. It had lots of fresh veggies, ordered it with the vinaigrette. The peach tea comes in a huge mason jar and is very refreshing. The kids plate is a cute dinosaur sandwich, and comes with a fruit or veggie side. It's of desserts to choose from also! The decoration is fun and definitely different than what you normally see anywhere else. Walls are covered with tea pots, books, games, antiques. There's a large play area for children, and lots of room for seating. Everyone who worked here was super friendly and talkative. Would definitely return, and recommend coming here. read more

On our way back to Katy from Aledo and we have to get our new fix,, the StorieBook Cafe. This is fun place with good food. If your ever in that neck of the woods, I highly recommend you drop by for some home soup and sandwiches. read more

We really loved this place! Was a fun little cafe and the kids didn't want to leave. The food was really good and well priced. We had a veggie wrap with chips. There were lots of fresh veggies like avocado, olives, tomatoes,etc. it came on a delicious spinach tortilla. We had jalapeño chips on the side. The kids were excited to see their grilled cheese sandwiches were in the shape of dinosaurs. How fun! Kids said they were really good. Had a piece of delicious chocolate chip pecan pie. It was so gooey and wonderful. I wanted the whole pie. The staff is super friendly! They were really nice and helpful. The restaurant itself is unlike anywhere I have ever been. Books everywhere and a play area for the kids. Just try and count all the tea pots! We will definitely come again the next time we are in town. You need to give this place a try. read more

There was no greeting on our way in today 3/14/23 at 2:10 and then it took another 15 minutes for anyone to arrive at our table to take a drink order. I saw how everyone was being treated differently and helped. I have never felt ignored or disrespected in the customer service sect ever until I visited this restaurant with my young son. Even though they finally recognized we hadn't been helped from the start, they certainly didn't make up for the poor service to start with. We weren't asked if we wanted anything else or even dessert. Nothing. Certainly the lowest point on our vacation. We will not be back here. read more

Amazing place. Decorated in a unique and fun way. Kid friendly with pb&j and other choices. I had half a rueben and half of The ABC, with jalapeño chips. The chicken salad sandwich on wheatberry bread was delicious. Make sure to eat your pickles, they're above and beyond normal. And dessert. Did I mention dessert? Wow, so amazing and delicious. The peanut butter cheesecake and bread pudding and brownie with ice cream. And finally, the peach tea. You smell it as you drink it. It may very well be the best ice tea I've ever had. I want to give this place 10 stars. Will come back anytime I am within 20 miles of it. read more

Cute little place that is great for kids. They have a play area for the kids abs lots of board/card games to enjoy. We stopped in for coffee, soup and tried a kids meal. The food was good. The service was a bit slow. read more

Pickle soup was awesome. I wasn't sure about my sandwich choice and the waitress saw my hesitation and when I passed to my guest my replacement sandwich came to my table without me ebony asking. Great spot, local ownership. read more

Great food, great people! Nice location convenient to beautiful downtown! I would recommend the club sandwich and chocolate pie!

Awesome concept that started as a book store and has evolved into a cafe. We stopped by on a busy Saturday during Memorial Day weekend for lunch. Our server was super friendly and nice. Our food took a while but was worth the wait. Nice to have some healthy options in a small town like this. I ordered the veggie wrap in spinach tortilla, my husband had a club sandwich and the kids had turkey sandwiches. The kids sandwiches come with a choice of healthy sides or fries. The portion is on the smaller side for older kids. Overall, great little cafe- we'll need to come back to try their desserts- they ran out! read more

I'm upping my review to 5 stars based on one menu item - Pawpaw's Pickles. These things are addictive - spicy and sweet at the same time. I bought 2 jars the last time we went through Glen Rose. The waitress told me (bragged!), with a smile on her face, that they made them in house and "no, we don't give out the recipe." I wish I'd bought a case. read more

I absolutely love this place - it has the effortless lack of pretension that I love about Glen Rose in general. The food is lovely and the service is kind read more

Did not find this place on my own. It was listed as a local favorite here on Yelp and I can certainly attest as to why. Best Ruben sandwich I've ever had. Husband had the roast beef on sourdough. It too was delicious. It's hard to beat a good fresh sandwich and that is what you will find in addition to great service. read more
