Smell of old books, the balcony, people writing books and plays, a very diverse selection, a bustling café, a good cause—New York, this is your bookstore.
This wood-lined room at this place has floor-to-ceiling books, many for just a dollar. You can enjoy a beer or wine from its café while you devour your latest find in a bohemian, welcoming atmosphere. Daha fazlasını oku
This place is my happy save haven in Manhattan! The staff is INCREDIBLY nice, the proceeds go to charity, and you can find books for 50 cents! I COULD LIVE HERE. I LOVE IT.
Lots of great books from all different genres organizedwell. They also have lots of small tables you can sit and drink coffee from their cafe at and work or read
With real estate prices so high, most coffee shops don't even have space to sit. Here's a great, old school bookstore with a tiny cafe and ample seating. Great to meet up or do a little work.
This place is all about books and caffeine!! Lovely spot in SoHo. You can sit down and finish reading a book and nobody is gonna bother you! Perfect spot, if you wanna get some me time for yourself.
Being a New Yorker with the ever rushing lifestyle (for no particular reason) a bookstore like this is exactly what I need to mellow out. A very chill, calming environment to sip on a nice cup of java
Come here for the eclectic selection of used books and relax in the back café with a delicious selection of teas, coffee and snacks. 100% of the profits go to ending AIDS and homelessness.
Someone at a bookstore in New Orleans recommended this to me. Super hipevents and a spiral staircase. Looking for something specific is hit-or-miss because books are donated. Daha fazlasını oku
Surprisingly, they serve a good and strong soy latte here for around $4. Deep, intense taste. Double roasted perhaps? Served in a pretty small tea cup and saucer. Get to browse used books too!
Climb a rolling ladder and wheel through the two levels of vintage books or cozy up in the corner with a coffee and a page-turner. This Soho gem is the perfect spot to spend a cold winter day. —Tera
They have consistently good coffee, and are always hosting amazing events and speakers, such as David Sedaris on 6/3. Get here early for big events though, the line stretches down the block.
In SoHo, and cheap? Crazy. Check out the cheapused book carts. The bookstore can be busy, but it stays fairlycalm. Staff are also very fun. Volunteer run!
June 14th: Prepare your best true story for the Moth StorySlam at Housing Works Bookstore (or just watch others tell theirs). No pressure, but it better be good--it’ll be broadcast on the podcast. Daha fazlasını oku
Coffee, books, and a good cause? Yes! 100% of their proceeds go to Housing Works: a healing community dedicated to helping those affected by or living with HIV/AIDS.
Great events most every night of the week. Catch an up-and-coming author book party or strike up a conversation with a HW volunteer. A great place to get a local taste of NYC.
Would be a really nice place to take meetings; there's something relaxing about loads of books on shelves. Refreshments and food are only decent, but at least they're cheap! (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Daha fazlasını oku

Nice, quiet place to work. Wifi is great, but make sure you have a full battery charge on laptop: no outlets available. While you are there, buy a book for a great cause!
Ask Roulette is coming to Housing Works this week so come on in and enjoy the hilarious panel of questions that will have you curious and entertained. Thurs, 3/24. Daha fazlasını oku
Awesome free literary and musicevents every week. The Moth Storyslam is excellent. Check their site for details. If you have spare time, sign up to volunteer!
Good spot to work with decent wifi but no outlets available for customer use, which is a bummer. Great place overall but make sure your devices are charged!
Great spot for studying or working, but just FYI you can't charge your phone or laptop here. They turned off the outlets to cut down on the electric bill!
Feel good buying here b/c of the cause. Beautiful dark wood shelves and lots of cheaphidden gems in the books. Open up the covers and find that several are signed copies. Plus they host the Moth!
Housing Works Bookstore Cafe is a nonprofit bookstore, cafe, and event space. All proceeds from every show you attend and everything you buy, down to a record and a PBR, go directly to our mission of fighting AIDS and homelessness.
