Spacious, friendly bookstore with a café - the only issue is that a lot of their shelves are bare! We enjoyed looking around, browsing books while sitting on the comfy chairs. The staff was very enthusiastic and friendly.

My friend and I were visiting Syracuse and we came across this bookstore. We truly enjoyed walking through the store, and there is so much life in this store. The staff were lovely and had such insightful recommendations. I just wish they were able to have more books that we could peruse.
