Little Oak Town needed this! Beautiful cafe and bookstore. Staff is so welcoming and it's such a nice vibe inside. I am very impressed with the pastries, goodies, coffees, and lotus! My husband and I will go out of our way to stop here for their pastries

Love, love, love this store! A friend brought me by while I was visiting and we stopped in for coffee and a snack. The pastry and drink selection is good, and the presentation was very cool (a little heart on my mocha latte!), and they offered milk substitutes. If you are looking for gifts, then look no further because they have something for everyone. There are art supplies, puzzles, boba milk plushies, journals, tarot, board games, collectible card decks (from Pokémon to One Piece), and of course lots of books for pleasure reading, personal or professional development, or education. They also do board game rental if you're not sure about buying the whole game. This shop is a must stop if you're in the area.

Books, games, coffee and amazing pastries. Friendly, knowledgeable, happy staffers too. What else do you need on a rainy afternoon in the PNW?

Haven't been since I left the island for college ages ago. This is not the Book Rack you remember in the 90's. They have expanded and are still on midway. This place now has a cafe plus tons of reading options as well as board games. Highly recommend coming by, they sell more than just books: puzzles, cards, board games, and have a full operational cafe. Current seasonal coffee/drink syrup flavors are peppermint, gingerbread, and pumpkin spice. The cafe offers alternative milks (during the holiday season they have eggnog)! I am forever impressed by The Book Rack, come by, browse around, they have reading nooks all over the store. My toddler son loves the little table and benches they have in the kid area and books at his height so he can browse independently.

Just moved to Oak Harbor and me and my wife are book worms so we decided to check this place out. I loved the atmosphere and even found a book for myself. The cafe was amazing we had two chais and a tomato caprese. One of the best chais we've ever had. We will definitely be coming back for the excellent service and amazing vibe.

Wow- this place was good before the relocation/expansion, and now it's AMAZING. Huge selection of books, merch, games, and other goodies a nerd or geek might want to peruse. The cafe, while nothing was up on the menus yet, served two delicious drinks and a perfect bagel. The barista was super kind and informative. There was a great seating area that we played a game at while we sipped our drinks. Prices are always good here, and the staff is friendly and helpful.

This place is absolutely amazing. My husband took me there for the first time on Monday for my birthday. I got lost for almost 2 hours, roaming up and down every section. There is no shortage of things to find there. There is something for everyone. The staff was super helpful, happy, and informative. They even laughed at my husbands terrible dad jokes! I could tell that they love working there. I can not wait for the expansion and cafe to open. I have a feeling I'll be visiting there a lot more.

Sadly they didn't have "The Lost Mines of Phandelver" but they're able to special order most things. The shop is beautifully decorated, well staffed (no shortage of assistance if needed), and the prices are fair. Despite lacking that one older starter set, they had nearly everything else one could be looking for. Highly recommend this store.

Very friendly and helpful staff, awesome selection, and very fair prices. Lots of places will upcharge for stuff like Warhammer but Book Rack does not
