Lion's Mouth Bookstore and Coffee

Great little shop, super inspirational. Old building vibes. Special little places that speak to the heart and soul like this are a treasure. Lots of great books. Beautiful art work. Cozy places to sit and read or work. Friendly and delightful staff. Clean bathroom. Nice offerings of tea and coffee treats to satisfy a craving of warmth to settle in. So much to look at, so much they offer. Super cute. Really enjoyed it.

Cute store! I love the atmosphere; they have comfy couches where your partner can sit and relax in while you shop. I love the events they host that features local authors and supports the community. They have a book club too! Every employee has been very nice and knowledgeable.

Stopped in for the first time tonight, and my only complaint is that I didn’t stop in much sooner!! The staff working the counter was so friendly and nice. I love the atmosphere of the store and the selection they carry, and them being locally owned is a huge plus for me. I like that they’re located right on Washington street near some of my favorite pubs and eateries:). They carry both new and used books and allow you to trade gently used books for store credit. Some hobby stuff such as puzzles, coloring, games. They also host events with authors, book clubs, and much more! Can’t wait to come back!

Lion’s Mouth Bookstore is a gem. The vibes are spot-on—warm, welcoming, and effortlessly cool. Whether you’re browsing the shelves or just soaking in the atmosphere, the ambience makes you want to linger. Thoughtfully curated selections, friendly staff who know their stuff, and a space that feels like a cozy invitation to fall in love with reading all over again. It’s the kind of place that reminds you why bookstores matter.

Great little bookshop! I appreciate that they sell both new and used options. Lots of titles and genres to shop.

Such a cozy little bookstore! If they had a fireplace, I’d want to curl up with a book there - but they do have comfy chairs instead. Sadly, it sits in the shadow of the behemoth who must not be named. Nevertheless, while this little store exists, a little more happiness will continue to exist in the world with it.

Like walking into a condensed version of Barnes & Noble w/o the commercialization. New and used books. Local interests and writer section. All sections laid out neatly. Staff have always been helpful.
