The coffee and especially the service were so good that we stopped again this year and were fortunate enough to meet the owner Ann-marie. She made us feel like royalty, but I soon realized that's how she treats all of her customers. The homemade pies were to die for and the slice seemed like a quarter of the pie. She suggested and crafted a refreshing summer coffee drink that exceeded our expectations. In addition, I found the prices to be unexpectedly reasonable. We had the most wonderful afternoon chatting away with the locals and enjoying the welcoming atmosphere of this Oswego gem. I highly recommend making time to stop by The Connection Point. You'll be delighted by all it has to offer.

They had a table set up at the door doing "take out" service, i.e. you say what author/genre/topic you are interested in and they bring up a small pile of books for you to look at. Got a nice stack of seven or eight sci-fi novels (it would have been more, but it has to fit in my carry-on when I fly home). Nice to see a small business finding a way to operate safely even in the current circumstances.

They back room is used clothing and antique fabrics, and DOES have a fitting room! There's a room for kids and teens too. I recommend you have good knees going in as there are books in every possible nook, high and low, including under tables. There's a read for every flavor and a recommendation for every reader. The shop owners are very knowledgeable of their stock. Parking- for cars I believe there's a back lot? But it's probably easier to just street park.

I talked a lot to the two women working there who were super nice and helpful and they said if you donate books you get 15% off. This is an amazing place for interesting and different Xmas presents. Give it a try for sure.

I fell in love today…read more With a bookstore, that is. We're vacationing in Prince Edward County (in Ontario, Canada) for a few weeks and the nearest town to where we are staying is the quaint, marina town of Picton. In order to do our grocery shopping, we take the 10 minute drive into this charming town and I've been exploring Main Street's numerous shops. I happened to be running an errand at the other end of Main Street and of course, a store called "Books & Company" caught my eye. (I love bookstores!) I walked into a very welcoming and very large space that appeared to house a few different groups. It seemed like it was part 'big bookstore' (reminded me of Indigo and Chapters), part independent bookstore (think 'Book City'), part used bookstore (my favourite), then, off to the side....wait, was that a hallway to the next door coffee shop? Yes , this establishment was a blend of my two favourite types of stores. A coffee shop attached to a bookstore! And this isn't one of the big, commercial coffee shops that are partnered with a just-as-big- bookstore, it was a small town, family run coffee joint, which in my opinion, are the best kind! (['ve reviewed Miss Lily's separately) While I waited for my coffee to be made, I meandered across the small hallway that joins Miss Lily's to Books & Company. The small ramp also serves as a community pin-board for the area. I actually found out via the board that there is a Harry Potter camp in the area. (My elder boy may go!) After picking up my coffee I wandered around the book store, which was exactly what I thought it was: part new books like Indigo (with a great children's section in the back) and part old and used books (I was in that section for a while). There's even a great stationary area and community space upstairs, which happened to be hosting a local art collection that can be browsed for $3.00. I bought an old book for my measly old-book collection that I'm thinking of starting. ("Over the Ocean to Paris" by Franklin W. Dixon...I'm a bit of a Francophile) And I also picked up a blank greeting card with a photo by a local photographer of a scene from Prince Edward County, for my penpal. (You read right, I do have a penpal!) The lovely lady behind the desk was great to chat with and after I told her that it's a lovely place, she said that it was an even lovelier place to work. I made my purchase for $4.95 and walked out into the sunshine. What an amazing start to the day. If you're in Picton, ask a local where "The Bookstore" is. They'll know exactly what you're talking about.
