My friends live in the area and had told me about a delightful restaurant they both liked which turned into a cafe/bookshop. For years they set "Andie traps" for me as encouragement to move from the East Bay CA to the PNW. This was one of the places they baited me with and I was so delighted to get to experience it for myself with them as we just moved to Portland earlier this summer. The Bookish space is welcoming and adorable. If you think "there aren't too many books", you would be correct, but I'm a firm believer that quantity doesn't always win over quality when it comes to books. That is to say, you may not find a book that you're intentionally looking for, but there's a high probability an unexpected book is waiting to find you. There's a fabulous selection of books for just about every reader's tastes. The decor and arrangement is inviting and pleasing to the senses. There's space for events and classes and plenty of cozy seating around to enjoy your drink. We all enjoyed some iced chai on the back patio shaded by the trees overlooking Lacamas Lake. The folx working at Bookish are a freaking delight-- fun, warm, welcoming, and they craft delicious drinks. I can't wait to return with my friends and I also look forward to bringing my fam as we continue our exploration of our new home in the PNW!

My one and only visit to Mindtaker Miniatures (so far!) was the result of a lucky windfall: finding…read morea board game I wanted for cheap online, only to discover it was being sold by this local retailer, and available for free pickup, making it even cheaper! Noice! Upon entering, I was greeted cordially by the person at the counter, given a tour of the shop, and an explanation of their (mostly secondhand, but high quality) business model that allows them to undercut other shops, as well as the predatory pricing of certain miniature manufacturers (if you're a wargamer, you know who I'm talking about). Everything from RPG books, figurines, paints, board games, dice, toys and accessories can be found within, new and/or used, and if you're okay with a gently loved, open box copy of whatever it is you're looking for, it's likely going to be a steal of a deal! With a local presence as robust as its online counterpart; an incredible and extensive selection of esoteric essentials and accessories; friendly and helpful employees; and more-than-competitive prices, Mindtaker Miniatures is here to stay and play 'til the endgame, score a truckload of points, and emerge the likely victor of the gaming grand melee!

Love charming venues like this! They have a variety of seating areas inside and outside. There were three different rooms inside to sit in. There were various areas outside, including a bistro table area in front of the house, a lighted covered patio area on the side of the house, an enclosed seating area with an open garage door, and a gas fireplace area with adirondack chairs. We ended up ordering the crustless quiche and iced coffees. The quiche was outstanding and served on a bed of spinach. The coffees were yummy too! Prices were reasonable. The two ladies helping us at the counter were friendly and helpful. Overall a wonderful first visit. I'll definitely be back to try their lunch menu! Would definitely recommend.
