Imagine a coffee shop, with comfy sofas as well as tables and chairs, and hundreds of second-hand books to browse while you wait for your coffee and cake or a nicely presented salad and delicious smoothie for lunch. Then you can decide whether you want to purchase any of the books while you eat. There is no rush, have another coffee while you decide. The cafe is directly opposite the station at Caruingbah, so arrive early for your train and take advantage of this delightful spot.
A great place to have a coffee, read a book or paper and maybe have something to eat. The place has hundreds of books you can browse, buy, read, then return and you get half of what you paid for it on credit towards another book. It's a great system. The girls are always friendly and the place is always busy. We go there every day for our coffee.
The staff here are delightfully helpful with their suggestions re. appropriate books but OMG the coffee barista needs an overhaul. The cakes are predictable and mass produced. Surely this institution could create a point of difference by providing individualised food...if not just focus on second hand books!
While the food was good the atmosphere is spoiled by having the few tables so close together. It is just the way the cafe is positioned. There are thousands of books which of course gives it its name however maybe some less books and a few more tables spaced a bit apart would better serve the public. Book a table now
Stopped by here for a morning coffee after our friends local were closed. Coffee was very decent and staff were lovely even though they were run off their feet in this little shop surrounded by mounds of cutely arranged literature.
My husband & I regularly visit this shop mainly for the excellent coffee. It has a great atmosphere & book selection. Friends have started frequenting it since we recommended it. Staff are lovely & the food is fresh & delicious.
Love this place. Service is good and the girls are cheerful The best part is sitting down and looking through the books. But I also like sitting out front of shop with my coffee and watching the world go by ????
Great little cafe where you can buy a second hand or some new book, enjoy a coffee and something to eat all at one place.Great service and always lovely and clean.Near the railway station on the Kingsway. Book a table now
We love this little business in caringbah - we love the girls, super polite, super lovely and great food and the best cup of tea in the shire.
Grab a coffee and a book, and enjoy a quiet read. We have come either a few friends and sat in he old lounges down stairs, nice area
