    “Black-owned, woman-owned, open late; people read quietly with a glass of wine or play cards, and it’s THE BEST VIBE.”

    “Sasha Bonét and I had a conversation in lineage, storytelling and writing in celebration of her book being published here. It is Black-woman-owned and the CUTEST date night spot”

    “Liz’s Book Bar is a beloved community space in Carroll Gardens — part bookstore, part coffee shop, and part bar. My favorite time to visit is in the morning for a writing session. The coffee is strong, the Wi-Fi is fast, and the atmosphere is inclusive and friendly.”

    “Spending a little time with a mocha or a glass of wine and a great book. I come here while my little one takes ceramics and I love the music, the energy, the drinks, the staff, the crowd. It’s a sweet little oasis in Brooklyn for all types of bibliophiles 🩷”
