Caila Q. • June 22, 2017Local mom & pop bookstore. Kind and attentive people with unique and older book selection. Found some handmade journals I love from this place. #shoplocal

Paige C. • December 30, 2022Delicious croque madame! A great place to sit for a while, work, meet friends, and have delicious coffee and food.
Larisa G. • June 17, 2015One of the best places to study/research in the city, but be prepared to leave almost everything (even laptop cases) at coat check.
Sara • October 13, 2018Amazing for a date. Coffee/tea and dessert recommended. Desserts are delightfully decadent. Espresso is perfected. Also, the bookstore - gorgeous, excellent and varied selection.
Jineen C. • March 12, 2021I love this hidden Salvi shop in the UES. Salvadoran-sourced and blended cafe 😍 also the bagels are DIVINE, beats out Blackstar around the corner in my opinion
