Super awesome place, food is absolutely delicious and you can tell both the high quality and attention to detail as well as the love and how everything is made by hand. Absolutely go to this place and give them all your money, fantastic local business that I hope stays in business for decades and decades.

I just love this place. It is a cozy cafe with tables upstairs, downstairs and outside. It is nice and cool for summer days and has lots of windows to watch the rain in the winter. I especially appreciate the kombucha on tap. Also this place is open later than most cafes in Eugene.

A cozy bookstore made even better by having an array of local beers on tap with a decent selection of non-alcoholic beverages as well. Lots of upstairs seating for reading, playing games, or studying.
