The Bookstor Cafe: coffee meets books

In our quest for inspiring places, we sometimes stumble upon true gems. Bookstor in The Hague is one such place where the charm of a cozy living room merges with the temptation of good coffee and the world of books.

Upon arrival, you're embraced by the warmth of second-hand furniture, the softness of Persian rugs, and the vibrant greenery that brightens the space. The large bookshelves invite exploration among literary treasures. It feels like stepping over the threshold of a friendly living room, ready to lose yourself in the magic of stories.

But Bookstor offers more than just a haven for book lovers. In addition to the pleasure of good coffee, you can also enjoy breakfast and lunch there. The atmosphere is relaxed, ideal for quietly savoring your favorite book or making a new literary discovery.

What makes this place even more special is the free bike tour organized by Bookstor. With your own bike in hand, an expert guide leads you through the enchanting streets of The Hague, allowing you to experience the city in a unique way.

And as if that weren't enough, you can join communal dinners in the evening, where you not only discover new dishes but also meet interesting people. Bookstor is not just a place to read; it's a social hub where you have the opportunity to broaden your horizons.

For lovers of live music, Bookstor offers something special with 'Sounds Between the Shelves'. Organized by Niels de Jonge, who has been working at Bookstor for two years, this music program creates a unique combination of melodies and bookshelves. The idea is simple but ingenious: an intimate concert among the literary works, where the environment merges with the music in a special way.

Bookstor is no ordinary bookstore; it's an institution with over 100 years of history. It not only offers books but also the opportunity to rent bicycles and even stay overnight in the adjacent hotel. And don't forget to keep the last Friday of the month free for 'Sounds Between the Shelves'. A unique experience where music, literature, and conviviality come together.
