its convenient during exam season but the line is often long, the drinks i've had taste watered down, and the prices are pretty high especially for the prepackaged stuff or if you cant have dairy.

Wheelchair accessibility: Its on the ground floor of the library so it is accessible but the counter is pretty high up

Atmosphere: 3

Food: 2

Service: 3

In many ways, the work of a critic is very easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so.But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the “new.” The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Today, I experienced something new: An extraordinary Java Chip Frappe, Cold Brew and Coffee Cake from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine coffee is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core.In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Sean Brown’s famous motto, “Anyone can brew.” But I realize — only now do I truly understand — what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist can come from anywhere. It is difficult to imagine more humble origins than those of the geniuses now brewing coffee at Bookmark, who are, in this critic's opinion, nothing less than the finest coffee connoisseurs in Missouri. I will be returning to Bookmark Café soon, hungry and thirsty for more.

Security lady out of touch with reality.....just like the overeducated...extra caffeinated cronies that hide in the basement of a library.

They offered no free bookmarks at the cafe. Didn't even have books to put bookmarks in, 0/10 on the bookmark front

Didn't expect much, and was kindly greeted with one of the best lattes I've ever had. For a campus coffee shop, this place is really something special.

Four East is quiet, warm, and close to couches, foot-rests and a restroom. I wrote a thesis sitting here!

Seriously, if you need help researching something, the librarians at the reference desk are the nicest people ever. They will go out of their way to guide you in the right direction.
