Tenn Street Coffee & Books

You head to Tenn Street Coffee & Books thinking you’ll just grab a cappuccino, and suddenly it’s three hours later, your laptop’s dead, and you’re halfway through a random book you found on the shelf. That’s the magic of this place. It's part coffee shop, part bookstore, part unplanned hangout spot where you'll keep finding excuses to “swing by.”

The menu keeps things simple but dialed in: locally roasted coffee that’s strong without being rocket fuel, multiple milk options, and snacks that hit (yes, even the gluten-free ones). There’s enough seating to set up camp, but the best move might be claiming an outdoor table and letting Tennyson Street provide endless entertainment.

And Saturdays? They bring in live music that makes your latte taste like something out of a movie scene. Basically, this place is the neighborhood’s heartbeat, and you’ll never regret losing an afternoon here.
