I loved everything about this place!! It was such a unique experience, I wish I had a place like this back home. I highly recommend the Tarragon Girl tea, which was a very new taste & was nice to have while browsing through the books. The couches were comfy and there was plenty of seating space. You could come to relax with a coffee and read, chat with friends while sipping a beer, get some work done, buy a gift, or simply get a to-go order! They have a large variety of book options as well and friendly, helpful staff.

I recently visited Rough Draft Book and Bar with my daughter, and it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The highlight of our visit was definitely the hot chocolate – it was simply divine! Topped with shaved chocolate, it was evident that they take their hot chocolate seriously and craft it with care. Although I was unable to enjoy the lavender cappuccino I had hoped for, the cappuccino I did have was still delicious and expertly made. Beyond the drinks, the environment at Rough Draft Book and Bar was perfect for families. It was kid-friendly and had a relaxed atmosphere that made it an ideal spot to unwind, read a book, or simply enjoy some quality time together. Whether you're a book lover or just looking for a chill place to hang out, Rough Draft Book and Bar is definitely worth a visit. Kid-friendliness: Great place for kids

Cute little place. Drinks are a bit expensive, but worth it because they are delicious. Bonus- they have vegan options!

I've been here a few times. It's a nice place. Good, friendly vibes. Usually very busy, so seating options are not always the best, but It's good place to meet people, grab something to eat and to find a nice book.

Best drip coffee I’ve ever had. Good prices. Good snacks. Great coffee. And very cozy and comfortable place for readers and book lovers. What a gem of a place.
