    Really enjoyed my experience here! Their burrata is a must try appetizer and isn’t your standard but is fantastic. Had to try their pancakes which were fantastic as is their french toast. Great breakfast/brunch spot with good offerings but do expect to pay. Will be back!

    My husband and I were in St Pete for the weekend and we found this spot for breakfast. So glad we did! The food was delicious, everything cooked to perfection, seasoned well and delicious. I had the Maple Snickerdoodle Pancakes, my husband had the Library Classic. I started with a brewed coffee and it was very very good. I love some cream with it and it was smooth and delicious. The pancakes were a stack of 4 large, which could have served 2 people. They were fluffy and had a hint of cinnamon. Topped with cinnamon streusel, sweet cream, strawberry compote and syrup on the side. My husband had scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes and a grilled biscuit. I gave him a hard time for ordering nothing fancy, but dang! That was a great breakfast!! The eggs were cooked perfectly, not overly firm but still a little fluffy without being slimy. And seasoned well. The bacon was perfectly crisp, not too thick and not too thin. Potatoes were nice and crispy and the biscuit was sliced and then grilled so you had a crispy crust and fluffy middle. The service was top notch. We had Shade and he was absolutely wonderful. So much fun and very attentive. The entire staff was friendly and took great care of us. I am an avid reader and I adore books, so the library vibe had me the moment we walked in the door with all the rows and rows of wooden shelves of books. Very clean and well taken care of. So cute to eat among the books, even our bill came inside a book! We look forward to our next visit when we are in town, maybe sooner than later.

    Me and my boyfriend ate here in January. We did the prefix lunch menu which had a good variety of choices. We got the chicken sandwich which would have been better but they BARELY put any of the aioli sauce on it. Our waitress took long to come around to check in on us, and overall she just seemed uninterested in being there. Also the warm cookies and milk was definitely microwaved… they came out steaming but was hard as a rock and was cold within a minute. So that was really upsetting. However the soup was DELICIOUS, I really enjoyed it. The place is also cool looking. Im giving this 4 stars because of the atmosphere and the soup. I would try this place again.

    We had a positive experience for brunch. We had one drink, the deviled eggs, and pancakes, fruit...with tip $75. It was a nice treat since we cut back on eating out. Everything was tasty. Server was great. Hostess was awkward. They had a guy playing music outside. Lots of seating.
