What We Are…

…in Murphy, NC, French doors fling open, a brightly lit, magical room entices you to cross its threshold into a world of excitement, intrigue, entertainment and knowledge…

…in Andrews, NC, you enter an atrium and encounter the remnants of an old service station. In reality you’ve entered a bookstore along with a coffee/wine shop and café.

Such places of enchantment really exist in the mountains of western North Carolina!

Our merchandise is carefully selected to include not only best sellers and classic book titles, but also an eclectic mix of local literature, arts and crafts.

We offer on-line shopping, and for a small fee, we will find “out of print” or hard to find publications. We are happy to accommodate mail orders.

Visitors and Newcomers

Our local and regional section with maps, guidebooks, hiking, nature and regional history and literature, greets the “out-of-towners” exploring or relocating to our area. Additionally, we can help you find the perfect souvenir or gift for any occasion.

Come, pay us a visit in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains. Enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine from The Daily Grind & Wine, while browsing our wonderful selection of books and art.
