"This Fremont neighborhood pub is a bibliophile’s haven, landing somewhere between a used bookstore, a community hub, and a casual cafe. Visitors find tables and chairs tucked among the pub’s shelves to read, or pop in for poetry readings or trivia nights. Meals here stay simple, with things like French dips and spaghetti; many regulars rely on the pub’s taps, which lean heavily on Pacific Northwestern beers." - Carrie Uffindell
