My first visit. Seems to be a popular place to chill, so seating was limited. Nice Atmosphere. Coffee, tea, and pastries, also books and t-shirts for sale. I would visit again.

Absolutely brilliant! I love the books available to buy almost as much as their Americanos!

A Golden Enclave in historic Germantown! Grab a cup ? of ☕ Joe or Sip some Tea. Why not level up to a nice classy & flavorful expresso? Add some simple syrup, honey, or almond milk to sweeten up the brew. Sample a vegan cookie, brownie, or oatmeal cream pie to soak up the ambiance! Bring the children and read them a nice story or two! Comfy ruby wine chairs compliment large ? windows providing plenty of natural sunlight for reading. Support the revenue by picking up a t-shirt or sweater and a cup in love of your favorite cause from a plethora of merchandise offerings! Enjoy the seating and wifi while soaking up the atmosphere. Dive deep into the tree of knowledge through a diverse selection of books ? that willl culture and cultivate one's mind on a journey along the reading rainbow ?! A fresh Golden pot of consciousness is always brewing hot ? at ? Uncle Bobbie's Coffee ☕ Shop!

Such a very special place. Excellent coffee, kind and attentive staff. I came here on a whim a week after my father's passing - just to get out of the house. One of the regulars struck up a conversation with me, and we sat on the beautiful velvet chairs talking for an hour. Bobbie's attracts special people.

Wow! This is my first time here and the vibe is unmatched. Great coffee and a vibrant staff that clearly enjoy what they do. So many books and cozy spots to read or just chill. I will be coming back for sure. ☺️

This place is a perfect example of a "third place" which are rare these days! I went last week and ordered a rose latte (really good) and browsed some of the books. They have an extensive selection of POC authors and even a children's section which I thought was great to include for families. I was intrigued by a few books and was able to sip my latte and read a little of each on an adorable little chair in the back. Best way to have some me time on a cold afternoon! I ended up buying the book Accountable by Dashka Slater which I'm really enjoying. Parking was easy, service was friendly, and I adore the concept of a bookshop and cafe! I'll certainly be back.

Great ambiance! Great staff! Visually pleasing! Artistically satisfying. These are all the things that get you at the door of this Black owned small business. While the pastries and coffee aromas are enticing you, your eye catches sight of the massive floor to ceiling BOOKSHELVES filled with beautiful hardback and paperback books from every genre. Every available space is uniquely decorated with the specific idea to draw in and encourage the readers and writers.
