The Press 9 Lincolnway, Valparaiso, IN 46383

"Lovely little bookstore and cafe combo. Fully safe, gluten free options. Pour overs, fresh loose leaf teas, vittles, and wonderful places to sit and enjoy books and food alike."

"Seating ranges from chairs and tables to some more lounging type furniture like couches and chairs. A great view of the state building in the middle of town. The inside of the building is gorgeous, but they also have outdoor seating on the sidewalk fenced in with umbrellas. Their specials for coffee are consistently fantastic (I haven't gotten anything off their specials menu so I cannot review those). They have a public bathroom and a nice selection of books for such a small place, they even have an area dedicated to local authors which I adore. I have not been here after 4 pm but I know that is when they start to also sell alcoholic drinks. When I have been in here it has ranged in business, but I would say the sound level is a good medium where you can casually talk with your friends or read (if you like a bit of life around you as ambiance which I do). The Press is technically the book store, which the coffee shop going by Yaggy Rd Rosting Company with different counters across from each other. Both have different rewards programs. The coffee shop going by Cashapp stars which the bookstore is in an internal system I believe."

"book store and coffee shop. Great place. Yummy fresh hot coffee brew. And hot specialty coffee too. Definitely a place to find any genre books for man, woman, teenagers, children and even toddlers. Gift ideas. Counter space at the front window. Also tables for 2 or 4. Even antique chairs in the back right corner. Cozy sitting areas. Good lighting. Separate register for books. Bright, crisp and amazing is my description of this place in a vintage building. Outdoor seating too. Support this small business. You will find tbis place right on Lincolnway. Parking all around the square too."
