Colin M. FordNoviembre 2, 2014Smell of old books, the balcony, people writing books and plays, a very diverse selection, a bustling café, a good cause—New York, this is your bookstore.
Untapped CitiesAbril 19, 2016This wood-lined room at this place has floor-to-ceiling books, many for just a dollar. You can enjoy a beer or wine from its café while you devour your latest find in a bohemian, welcoming atmosphere. Leer más
Kelly Ann GonzalesEnero 11, 2013This place is my happy save haven in Manhattan! The staff is INCREDIBLY nice, the proceeds go to charity, and you can find books for 50 cents! I COULD LIVE HERE. I LOVE IT.
AmateurConciergeJulio 24, 2015With real estate prices so high, most coffee shops don't even have space to sit. Here's a great, old school bookstore with a tiny cafe and ample seating. Great to meet up or do a little work.
Carmen NJulio 10, 2015One of the best used bookstores in NYC, and an all around comfortable, inviting space. The selection is usually on par with a "new" bookstore.
EceMarzo 7, 2018Such a cozy and peaceful place. It’s more like a library with some drink options where you can work/study as they have wifi, or read books.
Neelu RaviFebrero 14, 2018This place is all about books and caffeine!! Lovely spot in SoHo. You can sit down and finish reading a book and nobody is gonna bother you! Perfect spot, if you wanna get some me time for yourself.
Jamie LonieJunio 25, 2018This place has lots of big tables and no-hassle WiFi. Good spot to quickly meet a friend or do some work. They have books too!
Kaitlin SiemeringSeptiembre 23, 2015Great place to spend an afternoon! Awesome used book collection, pretty good coffee, places to sit, and all proceeds go to a worthy cause!
Sonya RytovaDiciembre 17, 2015Very nice coffee! Like really cool!) Cute place to talk with a friend or read a good book (actually it's almost the same ;) )
Howard WongJunio 6, 2013Being a New Yorker with the ever rushing lifestyle (for no particular reason) a bookstore like this is exactly what I need to mellow out. A very chill, calming environment to sip on a nice cup of java- Support them with your money (great cause and volunteers) BUT ALSO they have a ton of free talks and events! Shop and enjoy!
Eman AbdulazizAgosto 30, 2018Cozy place with good collection of books on various topics. They have live book discussion every week or so.
The Corcoran GroupOctubre 8, 2010Come here for the eclectic selection of used books and relax in the back café with a delicious selection of teas, coffee and snacks. 100% of the profits go to ending AIDS and homelessness.
Katherine M.Abril 28, 2014Someone at a bookstore in New Orleans recommended this to me. Super hip events and a spiral staircase. Looking for something specific is hit-or-miss because books are donated. Leer más
Ms HeleneDiciembre 13, 2012Surprisingly, they serve a good and strong soy latte here for around $4. Deep, intense taste. Double roasted perhaps? Served in a pretty small tea cup and saucer. Get to browse used books too!
BollareSeptiembre 30, 2011Climb a rolling ladder and wheel through the two levels of vintage books or cozy up in the corner with a coffee and a page-turner. This Soho gem is the perfect spot to spend a cold winter day. —Tera
Zii HammadAgosto 27, 2014In SoHo, and cheap? Crazy. Check out the cheap used book carts. The bookstore can be busy, but it stays fairly calm. Staff are also very fun. Volunteer run!
Kelsey LeeJunio 22, 2014They have consistently good coffee, and are always hosting amazing events and speakers, such as David Sedaris on 6/3. Get here early for big events though, the line stretches down the block.
Christine ArboledaMayo 6, 2015Love the cafe, great place to relax and study or discover the great selection of donated books. Cozy like an old library feel that is inviting.
ConZergeOctubre 20, 2013Coffee, books, and a good cause? Yes! 100% of their proceeds go to Housing Works: a healing community dedicated to helping those affected by or living with HIV/AIDS.
Patronize the beautifully renovated café in the back, run entirely by kind & loving volunteers.
Polina WeitzDiciembre 31, 2022Cozy place with great books and old-school book shelves. Coffee is solid and it's a great spot to take a break at SoHo.
SideTourMayo 8, 2012Great events most every night of the week. Catch an up-and-coming author book party or strike up a conversation with a HW volunteer. A great place to get a local taste of NYC.
MichaelEnero 27, 2017Need to escape Soho's shopaholics? Order a coffee and take some time out in this spacious yet cozy bookstore, all for a good cause!
A kinda-hidden gem of SoHo tucked away on a cobblestoned backstreet, a great bookstore with some must-try chai. So good, it just had to rhyme.
Katerina AnnaNoviembre 29, 2014Coffee is not the best, but it's not bad either! Lovely environment to drink your coffee and maybe read a book..? :-)
- Untapped CitiesJulio 15, 2013This shop maintains an amazing vibe while promoting good causes. It's staffed entirely by volunteers, and all profits go to a Housing Works, a nonprofit that fights homelessness and AIDS. Leer más
Kate RitchieEnero 31, 2012Nice, quiet place to work. Wifi is great, but make sure you have a full battery charge on laptop: no outlets available. While you are there, buy a book for a great cause!
Joury IbrahimAbril 22, 2018If live in NYC, this place would be one of my favorite. Friendly staff, good atmosphere, great area. The coffee was average.
Time Out New YorkMarzo 24, 2016Ask Roulette is coming to Housing Works this week so come on in and enjoy the hilarious panel of questions that will have you curious and entertained. Thurs, 3/24. Leer más
AbNoviembre 25, 2015Great stop with solid collection and decent coffee in the back. Easy place to work, but don't expect power outlets
Valerie LaiFebrero 6, 2013Awesome free literary and music events every week. The Moth Storyslam is excellent. Check their site for details. If you have spare time, sign up to volunteer!
Jess NaldoAbril 29, 2015Good spot to work with decent wifi but no outlets available for customer use, which is a bummer. Great place overall but make sure your devices are charged!
Alexandros PlexidasMayo 13, 2016Nice and cheap coffee for a good reason, free wifi, plenty of books to read and quiet atmosphere!
Katie ChanpongFebrero 12, 2014Great spot for studying or working, but just FYI you can't charge your phone or laptop here. They turned off the outlets to cut down on the electric bill!
Eliane vdBAgosto 12, 2013Great place to get some work done while enjoying good music, sipping on a coffee. Warning: no outlets available for your laptop.- If I'm in the neighborhood I always stop by to browse the cookbooks and design books. Good prices
- Jack OsborneOctubre 1, 2018Could honestly spend hours in here. Great little spot with a decent selection of food and drinks too.
Harry RaymondNoviembre 22, 2014Free wifi, cheap coffee, good sandwiches and chill vibes. An oasis off busy Houston st.
- Great place to have a meeting. Quiet, plenty of seats, and good drink options (coffee, wine, beer)
Iced mocha is delicious. In the last few months, it's made in a new way that makes the chocolate taste much stronger. Definitely a plus.
Alexis BendjouiaOctubre 12, 2015Awesome well-priced used bookstore with a cafe, and a selection of records.
Patrick BaskinEnero 15, 2017Cute spot to hangout, space to sit and talk with coffee & drinks or peruse the books for sale
Danielle BorschMayo 26, 2011Feel good buying here b/c of the cause. Beautiful dark wood shelves and lots of cheap hidden gems in the books. Open up the covers and find that several are signed copies. Plus they host the Moth!

"Great little shop. I always find something cool. Prices aren't the cheapest but the money goes to a good cause. They weed through the junk that most thrift stores get which leaves you with nice items."

"I love the prepared foods here and their amazing stock of natural and organic items. Check them out!"
