Books and Beans

I wish this place was closer to home! The food was wonderful (I had the Great Gatsby sandwich), lattes were great and the space/decor are so cute! We had read A Woman is no Man, written by the shop owner, so it was a treat to get to meet her as well! She was lovely and so friendly. Although it is a good drive from home, I will definitely be back!

Books and Beans is literally one of my favorite places to be. The coffee is amazing, the baristas take their time with each latte. They use Counter Culture coffee, which tastes great. Their sandwiches have so much flavor! The owners happen to be pretty cool too.

Books and Beans is such a refreshing place to stop and grab a bite and a cup of coffee. The atmosphere is so light and inviting, and the dirty chai latte is otherworldly. I met the owner on my most recent visit, and she is an absolute delight - so it’s not surprising her shop is too! I just wish I lived closer so I could stop in more often!

Stopped here on my way through town and I was blown away. The staff were wonderfully pleasant and incredibly accommodating, coffee was exceptional, and the food... Oh the food. Honestly this was one of the most pleasant accidental discoveries I've had, and I encourage anyone passing through or living nearby to make this a regular stop on your journey or daily routine.

This is such a lovely, clean, friendly little cafe. We stopped in on our way back to Raleigh from OBX for a bathroom, coffee and snack and we loved the experience.nnFamily own and run, adorable theme and decor. You should absolutely stop in if you’re nearby!!
