"Volumes Bookcafe, co-founded by Rebecca and Kimberly George in 2016, is a community-centric space located in Wicker Park. It provides a unique combination of coffee, tea, books, wine, and whiskey, aimed at offering a detachment from reality. The venue, initially opened with a cafe, had to close its cafe during the pandemic and let its liquor license expire. The Georges moved the bookstore to a new location at 1373 N. Milwaukee Avenue, purchasing the space as it was more economically viable than renting. They plan to reinstate the liquor license to continue offering drinks." - aimee.levitt
