I absolutely love this little cafe, but beware if you have food allergies. Got an absolutely phenomenal sandwich, but they left on the ingredient I wanted removed and now I'm covered in hives. Otherwise the staff is very kind, the food is amazing, and the ambiance is perfect, still my favorite spot.
The atmosphere is nice and even when busy the seating area is quiet enough to comfortably work in. The issue is the food is quite expensive for what you get. I ordered a chipotle chicken sandwich for $16 and it arrived with sad lettuce, thin slices of tomato, one slice of chicken, and regular mayo. I guess the chicken may have been the chipotle part but it was disappointing for the price. Good coffee though.
We ordered cake, a double espresso, and a cafe mocha. They gave us our slice of delicious cake. We finished it and didn't get our coffee order until 20 minutes later. It was pretty ridiculous. At one point, the people behind the counter were not making coffees. I don't think someone who orders drinks should have to wait until someone's sandwich or food order is being filled before getting their coffee. That seems to be what was happening.

Chapbook Cafe is a cozy and charming spot that combines a welcoming atmosphere with good food and drinks. The cafe is part of a bookstore, creating a relaxing environment perfect for working or enjoying a quiet moment. Visitors often praise the friendly staff and quick service, especially for drinks like hot chai latte with a scone and good coffee. The ambiance remains peaceful even when busy, making it a favorite place to relax.
The menu includes delicious items like the double espresso, cafe mocha, and carrot cake, which many find exceptional. However, some reviews mention that the food, such as the chipotle chicken sandwich, can be disappointing for the price, with small portions and lack of quality. Food allergies should be approached with caution, as mistakes can happen, and staff may forget to remove ingredients. Additionally, inconsistent hours and early closures have frustrated some guests, leading to disappointment when the cafe closes before the posted time. Overall, Chapbook Cafe is loved for its cozy vibe, friendly service, and tasty drinks and desserts, despite some issues with pricing and operation hours.
