    04/2025 My wife and I came in for the first time for lunch on a Friday afternoon, around 12 PM, during our visit to Glen Rose. The Cafe was fairly busy, but there was plenty of seating available. The Cafe is spacious and it seems to be good for small and larger parties. The set-up is great, especially if you're a book-lover. The walls are filled with shelves of all types of books and there's a lot of creative, book-related decor throughout. There is a small parking lot, but also know it's a couple of minutes walking from GR's downtown area, an easy and quick stroll if you want to park somewhere there. When we sat down we were greeted promptly and our waitress was very attentive and kind throughout our meal. There's definitely a culture of hospitality here that we felt and loved. To eat, I ordered the Sarah, grilled, which included:Turkey, Bacon, Cheese, and Avocado, on Wheatberry bread. I had "Brewed Peach Tea" to drink. The sandwich was DELICIOUS and I love that it was full and fat. They have a variety of other sandwich options that also sound so appetizing. The sandwich comes with a side of chips of your choice. The iced tea was also great, perfect on a warmer day. Overall a great experience and I highly recommend it. Their hours go into the early afternoon only so be aware of that. Can't wait to come back!!!!

    What a fun and eclectic spot in Glen Rose. I ordered off the secret menu and chose the jalapeño popper grilled cheese. My husband ordered the club. Both of us got BBQ chips. The service was friendly and the bookstore element made lunch super cozy!

    Chicken salad sandwich

    The best sandwich after a long hike at the state park. Super friendly, small town place and was very welcoming. Cutest book store vibes, will be returning.

    I've been going to Storiebook cafe with my mom in Glen rose for a while now and their sandwiches are always on point! I still have things I want to try there but the sandwiches I typically get with seasonal fruit always hits the spot. I LOVE the ambiance here. I love the library and book cafe vibes here along with the seasonal decor they have throughout the year. They play oldie 50's music which is so great and I love also. The service is always good here and the ladies are attentive and friendly. I love that me, my mom, and sometimes my grandma can just relax by playing card games or board games, or reading. I highly recommend here and so many other local places in Glen Rose Tx!

    Food is Great and the staff is better. Try the secret menu. If you're in town give them a try.

    What the What!? Iced coffee goodness!
    Corey L.

    What the What!? Coffee never looked so good! Don't get me started on the taste! Oh my oh my; it taste better than it looks! By the by, this place actually freezes decaffeinated coffee to make their ice cubes so if you are a slow sipper the ice doesn't water down the goodness! Excellent, outstanding, and all my Kudos to job well done! Wish I lived here so I could partake in this on a weekly basis! Ask for JeNNifer with 2 N's She served me Well!

The experience starts with the hostesses who seem to think they are working in a Michelin starred establishment. Then the disappointment moves into the dining experience. Poorly cut steaks, and items you'd find in a Cotton Patch cafe. All at a price point that screams "we are in a hotel in Granbury who thinks it is the Beverly Hilton, just minus the money, service, and accoutrements." The difference being that the restaurants in Beverly Hills actually live up to the expectations, and even they aren't so full of themselves. The experience does not even come close to living up to its price and value proposition. Save yourself the time and drive into Fort Worth or Dallas to dine at a nicer establishment that's worth the money and more in-line with the advertised expectation. Christina's: "A little restaurant trying so hard to be something it's not capable of being."
