Foreigner Cafe Tea

Recently the Foreigner Cafe in San Mateo has added afternoon tea to their menu! I was able to go for a friends birthday to check it out! This is not a dedicated tea place but more of a cafe and brunch place that happens to have tea now.

A Novel Affair


 

A Novel Affair is a new romance focused bookstore in Los Altos that I was very interested in visiting! Unfortunately this city isn't very accessible via public transit so a car is recommended though there is plenty of parking around the downtown area.

Feldman's Books



I recently went to a used bookstore in Menlo Park called Feldman's Books. It's located in downtown Menlo Park so super easy to get to via the Caltrain.

The Best Bookstore in Union Square




I went to the new downtown SF bookstore that just opened recently! After Alexanders Books closed there wasn't really a bookstore near Union Square for a bit. The Best Bookstore is near the Powell street Bart/Muni station and the end of the cable car line so it's definitely easy to get to using public transit.

Inkspell and Coastside Books

When I went to tea at By the Teashore I was able to stop by 2 bookstores downtown Halfmoon Bay! One of which was a combination new and used bookstore and the other less of a bookstore and more of a tourist and crafting store.
