I recently attended a book launch here for the 2nd time and I absolutely love this place! There is no other place like The Lit Bar. So accommodating and clean. The book categories are endless!

Love this bookstore for it’s intimacy and the fact its #BXMade I purchased 3 books (when I came in for 2) and I can’t wait to delve into them. R&B music was playing non stop bangers so I was in the zooooneeee. Nice and empty on a rainyday. Only 4 stars because I felt the workers could’ve been more engaged with guests in the store. It took about 20 minutes from when I entered for me to be greeted/offered help. One worker recommended a self-help book, and told me her other co-worker would help me find another. Well the other co-worker never acknowledged me, just more of swam around which is okay, sometimes we get nervous. No one offered for me to put my coat anywhere, show me around, asked if it was my first time, what books I have already read or ones I want to get into…. I feel they’re missing a mark with talking to guests and finding out what they need

Great selection of books, with an emphasis on writers of color. Bar menu includes an array of whites, reds, and sweet wines. Loved the environment, and the music is on point. Wonderful place to read and relax.
