Webster's will be back in 2012!

We're just waiting on the final approval so that construction can be completed (working with a wonderful company) within the next few weeks. We may not make our latest target of First Night (December 31, 2011) but we'll certainly try...stay tuned for progress reports or sign up for our newsletter by sending a simple email to: molly@webstersbookstorecafe.com OR elaine@webstersbookstorecafe.com

If you're in town during First Night (December 31, 2011) stop by to see us!!

133 East Beaver Avenue, entrance on Humes Alley

NEW LOCATION:

The new space features the bookstore that you loved before, but now with even more selection and more room for browsing! Our new space at 133 E. Beaver Ave has plenty of room to mingle the cafe into the bookstore without putting any tables and chairs in the way of the bookshelves. We'll still have cozy nooks and comfortable places to sit, but you'll never have to ask someone to move to see any of the books! It's twice as big as the store on Allen Street so we've been able to combine our warehouse Internet operation into the same location, making our bottom line healthy again! Josh Ferko's Stax of Trax Record Shop will be back, too!

NEW MENU:

Webster's will feature many of your old favorites, but we've added some new items to our menu, available daily. (You'll also be able to grab a coffee faster than ever before!) Here are just a few examples of the additions to the menu:

Hot Sandwiches:

• Portobello Mushroom Melt with Swiss cheese, Balsamic marinade, organic spinach, and caramelized onions
• Falafel with sun-dried tomato pesto, red onion, and our cucumber sauce, with organic greens & sprouts
• Grilled Vegetable Burrito with White Bean Pate and organic greens and sprouts wrapped in a wheat tortilla

New Breakfast Burritos:

• Florentine style with egg, feta cheese, spinach and red onion
• Veggie with egg, cheese, mushrooms, onion, peppers, and potatoes

Same great coffee, tea, chai, and other specialty drinks, too! More desserts from Clare Traynor's Sweet Indulgence!

NEW EVENTS:

We are already planning many new exciting events, including:

• Open Mic
• Poetry Slams
• Book Readings
• Readers Theater
• Theme Dinners
• Brunches every Sunday featuring local music!

NEW BOOKS:

We'll be stocking more new books than ever, with ways to support us through your purchases of e-Books, too. If you'd like to support Webster's before we open in January, consider ordering new books through our site:

VOLUNTEER HELP:

We're working in the space daily, so stop by and see if you can lend a hand! We'd love to show you around!

Best,
Elaine
