This bookstore is an absolute gem, offering an incredible selection of books alongside a fantastic variety of items like postcards, notebooks, puzzles, kids' toys, and even socks.

With great indoor and outdoor seating and friendly service, this place is easily accessible near the Metro. If you're in the area, it's a must-visit!

Such a fun and packed bookstore! They have everything! Postcards, notebooks, travel, puzzles, kids toys, socks, and of course tons of BOOKS! Not to mention the entire cafe inside. Definitely check it out if you’re nearby!
Lots of good choices on the menu, so I had a hard time choosing what to get for lunch. I decided on Mushroom Ravioli ($19), which was excellent. Indoor and outdoor seating, great service, convenient location close to the Metro.
went on a Friday afternoon & had less than a 10 min wait! ordered the crab deviled eggs (comes with 4), the Bavarian Pretzel (feeds at least 4 people) & Crispy Brussels Sprouts (feeds at least 4 people). All 3 appetizers were BOMB! Ordered the Fettuccine New Orleans as the entree & loved it (came with shrimp, chicken, sausage, etc)!! would definitely come again to try out their breakfast
