“The café at Books a Million (BAM) had a cheerful and efficient barista at 9:30am. A mid-sized Café Americano was surprisingly inexpensive. The café offered limited indoor seating at tables and in plush reading chairs beside end tables. It also had outdoor patio seating. It had good onsite public WiFi. Plenty of free parking was available. I'll be back! Nothing beats sipping a good coffee at BAM while looking through the best sellers for a new book to read on a Maine beach or on a flight out of nearby PWM.“
