Trend: Bookstore Bars With Great Food and Natural Wine | Eater

"Conceived as an all-day destination in a college town, this venue deliberately balances bookselling with a serious food-and-drink program so alcohol is available but not the main focus, creating an approachable place for patrons who might not feel comfortable in a typical bar. Cocktails are conceptually tied to literature—many drinks are derived from books and the shop sources those titles so customers can recreate recipes at home—and management is developing a wine program that pairs bottles with books from the same country of origin, deepening the crossover between reading and drinking." - Jaya Saxena
