Boston is both an educational hub and a hot spot for haute cuisine. Luckily, you can have the best of both worlds at these venues where you can pick up a new book and enjoy it over a glass of wine or a craft cocktail.

Maproom Tea Lounge at Boston Public Library
Where: Back Bay
Info: Yes, the Boston Public Library has a bar in it. We are that serious about our studies here in Boston. At the Maproom Tea Lounge you can crack open a new library book while sampling cocktails named for famous books and authors.
Where: Somerville
Info: Swing by Wild Child in Bow Market to peruse books about food, wine, and culinary trends as well as a selection of natural wines. They often offer wine tastings on site, or you can take your book over to Nook cocktail bar (also in Bow Market) to enjoy a unique drink.
Where: Jamaica Plain
Info: Tres Gatos is the best of all possible worlds. In the back of the space you’ll find a small but well-stocked bookstore and record shop, in the front you’ll find an innovative tapas restaurant with a robust craft cocktail and wine list. What book pairs best with a Spanish red?
The Library Lounge at Yvonne’s
Where: Downtown
Info: Inspired by speakeasies and supper clubs of yore, Yvonne’s is a trendy dining and nightlife spot. The vintage books lining the Library Lounge serve a dual purpose, Instagram inspiration and reading material.
Where: Newbury Street
Info: Trident is a favorite for students and professionals alike. The cozy bookstore and cafe features a wide selection of new releases and old favorites, an extensive food menu, and a beer and wine list. They’re also home to a great events scene, you may recognize the name from our trivia roundup.
Where: Beacon Hill
Info: Beacon Hill Books & Cafe boasts not only exciting new reads, but also a menu crafted by Chef Colleen Suhanosky. Enjoy afternoon tea, a latte, or a glass of wine in the calming outdoor garden while diving into your latest novel.
