By far the best locally owned and operated bookshops in the Waco area. Great books, great online ordering system, excellent customer service, and fantastic beverages! It's just a delightful place and we love it so! This is one of those places that just makes the town of Waco even better!

Neat interior. Fun assortment of books and reading related items. When we visited, there was a drinking spelling bee going on

It is a large book store with a variety of books and notes from staff’s recommendations, which looks sweet.

Really good coffee and a great selection of books. They have several "staff picks" where they tell you about the books of every genre. Every employee i spoke to was very friendly.

If you are a book person, this is for you. Takes you back to days where mom & pop bookstores existed and I loved that I stumbled on this one while exploring downtown Waco. Decor was so inviting with comfortable. Plenty of sunshine spots but also "hidden" dark corners to tuck away in to study. Had charm and nice mix of mystery to it. Stations for studying available which were all full.The group I was with was able to take a break while I explored the shelves. Cute little coffee bar serving sandwiches, salads, hand held treats. I got the lemonade with pop rocks, sorry I forget the name. So fun and refreshing!The children's book section was super adorable. Wall to wall books and trinkets! I found a cute onesie for my granddaughter that read" First Edition" ! How cute is that!Love supporting local. This one was a nice bonus stop to check out!

My favorite coffee/book shop in Waco! It has 2 things I love: good coffee and books.Coffee: Their drinks are among the best in Waco. I’ve visited many different coffee places and none beats their selection. The drinks I recommend are Waco Fog, London Fog, Cream Earl gray, Muggle mocha, and Frobscottle/Lightning Thief for children.Ambiance: The atmosphere is family friendly and calm. It can get a bit crowded during the day and Saturdays. You’ll see tourists passing through, Baylor students studying, and families hanging out.Books: Fabled has a good selection of books across the spectrum of genres, from classics to religion, romance and biographies, cooking and pastries, children books and much more. The prices are slightly higher (but not exaggerated) than Amazon but it is an independent shop and they have to cover costs. Support local shops!Wi-Fi: you can ask for a voucher code with a 2-hour limit. You can ask for more once time is up. Unfortunately, the connection can be a bit slow.Miscellaneous: It also has a good nook of gifts like candles, Knick knacks, and planners. The restrooms are clean.The staff is friendly and kind. It also helps being a regular lol.I love this place and visit frequently. You won’t go wrong.

Great service and atmosphere. The coffee was excellent. It also has a cute selection of book-related items for purchase. I got several cards and pins.I have been mid day on a weekend so it was pretty busy and lively but during the week it much quieter and better place to sit down and work.

TEN OUT OF TEN EXPERIENCE!! Absolutely loved this books shop, their merch and their coffee/wine! We came as part of a bachelorette trip and it was fantastic. One of the book buyers actually helped us pick out books! Such a cool experience!! Wish I could bring them home with me lol

A cute bookstore with a cozy bookshop. Reminded me of coffee shops from movies. It had a really warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff were very friendly. Lots of books and a decent size. I would say it’s a gem in Waco, Texas. I appreciate the variety in genres. Plenty of spots to sit and read, work, chat with your friends. If I visit Waco again this will be a definite visit for me and my husband.
