Stephanie H. • November 3, 2014Wonderful bookstore with plenty of charm. Smells like old books and glue with things in every nook and cranny. Has its own organization but might take a couple visits to appreciate it.
Christopher H. • February 18, 2016Very nice selection of books, but pricier than your standard used bookstore. As much a place for rare and antique books as it is for paperbacks.
K B. • June 12, 2013Wonderful customer service from a long standing independent business on the Hill. Carefully selected children's books/toys. Plus free gift wrapping! Go during the week to beat the crowds.
DC Public Library • September 7, 2011Pick up your library card from the circulation desk (you can apply online before you go). Then download the app to place holds, browse the catalog, and more from your smartphone. http://bit.ly/oSSkBK
Ellen R. • December 30, 2021Top quality espresso machine and the foods are incredible. I go there more now. The yogurt is the best. Everything you chose is the best
Cameron B. • February 17, 2018Pretzel with the mustard trio is amazing, potato pancakes, and sausage platter (wurstfeast) great as well! Knowledgeable and friendly staff happy to answer questions.
Behrad Eats • February 22, 2017The Pink Peppercorn Shortbread offers a hint of spice in this scrumptious, not-too-sweet pastry.
Behrad Eats • February 14, 2016Taiwanese Braised Pork Belly just melts in your mouth! Soy-braised Berkshire pork belly w/ fermented mustard greens.
Matt V. • September 15, 2011Get the espresso. It is so flavorful!
Skye E. • July 13, 2013We always get two ham and cheese croissants and split the fruit bowl. Best breakfast--my fave!!!
Matt D. • September 5, 2012It's a tiny library, but like all DC libraries, they can order books for you from any other library in the system.
Tessa M. • January 30, 2016Best neighborhood in DC! Tons of restaurants, bars, and shops here. All locally owned, no chain restaurants here. The people are diverse and amazing. Must go to in DC.
Lee G. • August 19, 2016The service is great & super friendly!!! As a coffee lover, everything I've had on their hot coffee menu is fantastic! Great breakfast & lunch panini sandwiches too!!!
Kirsten H. • April 3, 2013Couch and comfy chairs and quiet place to read or study upstairs.
Jackie M. • July 2, 2015Beautiful bookstore here, books stacked to the ceiling! Capital hill books is definitely a place to visit.
Simone A. • June 10, 2011Grilled chicken and smoked mozzarella looks good, but love the curry chicken salad tartine.
Steve R. • April 7, 2012U stab em,we slab em
