Super cute little shop with books and a cafe. The childrens section was well taken care of and the variety of candles and crafts were a nice touch. I enjoyed sitting outside on the porch sipping coffee while my son read and I worked on my laptop. There is also seating inside and a few snack treats to choose from. We will be going back soon!
Love this cozy coffee shop. Very friendly staff and delicious coffee! For a nice peaceful and welcomed spot youve got to visit this bookstore! Youll love to browse the shelves of books, greeting cards, kids corner, unique gifts and trinkets.Starbucks got nothing on this place.
This is a super cute spot with a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. The coffee is also delicious!
When I visit, I feel like Im looking through a friends bookshelf. Its quaint and cozy but still has a huge selection. The cafe is great too! Cant wait to come back
Very fun bookstore! Definitely has that independent vibe, combined with a coffee shop in store as well, to serve as a nice gathering place for good conversation or some solitude to read some fine words by yourself. Surprisingly large and diverse collection given the size and location of the store. A gem in Lafayette!
Wonderful independent books store that also carries puzzles, a few games and gifts, and fantastic coffee. I go in here just for the smell! They also have a cool book buy back program that gives you store credit. Theres an area outside you can sit and enjoy your new book with a latte and pastry. Long live Read Queen!
This is such a fun place! Looking at the curated selection of books while sipping on above average coffee is truly living the good life. Everyone who works there is knowledgeable and friendly. Check them out!
Recently discovered the Read Queen and Im in love. The place is so cozy and has amazing coffee. They have books, puzzles, and the cutest greeting cards. With some seating inside and outside, I cant wait to come here to read and get some work done!
My favorite local cafe place in Lafeyette to meet friends; love the selection of books, jewelry and other kitch items.
What a beautiful store and coffee shop. Not only can you get any book you want, but the store itself is filled with fun, interesting, and beautiful toys, trinkets and gifts. The coffee, Italian soda (lavender is the bomb) and snacks are all quality and delicious. The owners are passionate about their store and serving the local community. Not to miss when youre in Lafayette.
This is a magical place with lots of books. The childrens section was well stocked. My friend and I loved looking at all the titles. Hope to visit again soon.
Our new favorite bookstore! The staff is super friendly and helpful. The book selection is great and pairing it with a tasty espresso beverage makes for an enjoyable experience. Well be back regularly.
Fun local shop with a great selection and a coffee bar to fuel your browsing.
Lovely people. Lovely place. Perfect place to find a book or sit on the patio with your favorite brew.
Small local businesses with decent adult, YA, and kids selection of books. Fun cards.
So glad an independent bookstore is back in town! Great place to pick up a book (or five), grab a tea or coffee (or my favorite— a lavender italian soda), and sit out on the patio when the sun is out. Staff are friendly and very helpful— if you’re looking for a title that’s out of stock in the store, they can even place a special order for you! All in all, a great addition to Lafayette/East Boulder County— especially in a pandemic. 📚🧩☕️
Good selection, plenty of books and yummy coffee
Great selection, friendly staff and tasty food. Theyll also order books for you if they dont have them on hand.
A lovely local bookstore.
Good selection of books and fairly quick ordering process for those you cant find. Coffee was also great -- will surely be back.
A book store with a great coffee bar.
A local favorite for a wide range of new and used books combined with great coffee, tea, and treats (especially for gluten free types)
Super friendly and knowledgeable staff in this local independent bookstore and cafe. The bookstore clearly makes an effort to be a member of the community!
I just visited The Read Queen and was so impressed! It’s a beautiful and very comfortable bookstore and cafe with plenty of room. Best of all, I loved their diverse collection of new and used books for all readers. I found poetry by Mary Oliver, a historical novel about the Alamo, some fiction by Anne Lamott, as well as a wide variety of commercial and literary works. I will return...What a joy to find a bookstore like this in our area! And a great place to have a socially distant cup of coffee with a friend!
Great local bookstore! I love shopping here for gifts and books and the staff has had great book recommendations as well! A great addition to our Lafayette community.
Fantastic independent bookstore, offering good array of books, plus ability to order special orders. Highly recommend!
Hello. We work in the complex and come in for coffee when we haven’t had enough in the morning. We also bought a couple of books. I never knew the weather affected the way the coffee comes out but that’s what the nice barista told us!
Very nice little book store. Very nice staff. Wish they had a slightly bigger collection but overall great place!
Cute place with a good selection of books for its size. Great coffee bar with really good tea and coffee.
Friendly people, nice cozy, and good service. I got my copy of Murakami latest book.
They special ordered a book for me. Great delivery time. Very personable. Also, they make a great Mocha!
Wonderful book selection, great staff and yummy treats.
Nice to have a place that serves coffee later in the day. The snickerdoodle latte i tried was great. Nice place to browse for books.
So grateful to have a local independent bookstore again in the Lafayette/Louisville community. Thanks Read Queen! I did most of my Christmas shopping with you!
First time here, super impressed! Wonderful space, great people, awesome coffee and goodies!
The owner was very responsive to my emails and helped me stock the school library! Employees are so kind and helpful. Thank you!
This bookstore always has great books at great deals! The coffee is superb and the staff is always super sweet and great with recommendations if you dont know what to drink or read
What a great little spot to have in town! Super friendly staff, excellent coffee at a very fair price but best of all the great book selection and helpful advice from the staff. So glad to have a good old fashioned book store nearby!
I love the read queen! They have great books and serve wonderful coffee, it’s a great place to just hang out and enjoy!
Lovely coffee, and even lovelier people!
A staff member encouraged me to come in when I was passing by admiring the bookstores name/sign. Inside it is the type of bookstore that is welcoming and charming. I ended up buying a book and a spicy chai latte. Love the book and I wish I could have the chai latte everyday because I rarely find a place that makes it anywhere near as good.
Yea! A local bookstore right in the heart of Old Town Lafayette near the WOW museum. Stopped by with my three year and she loved the kids section. Also had a great coffee bar. Can’t wait to come by again!
Love that Lafayette has a bookstore like this in town. Havent tried the coffee or baked goods, but the bookstore is lovely and the people are friendly.
I love this book store- staff are friendly and helpful. And the coffee is on point!
Very sweet little bookstore and café.
Adorable kitschy bookstore with coffee.

We love this place! Great prices, selection, and Cafe! Great place to read or study with lots of outdoor seating.
