Where good books, good coffee & good friends meet.
Webster, Mass. — Booklovers' Gourmet opened in March 1995, when Debra set out to build a cultural oasis in her hometown: a place to share a love of literature and the arts, champion local talent, and make everyone feel welcome through the door. Three decades on, that's still exactly what you'll find.

Grab Bag & Blind Date
Take a chance on a wrapped surprise.
Grab Bag bundles and Blind Date with a Book — wrapped with extras like pens, stickers & tea bags, and just a hint of genre.
Bookish Merch
Wear your reading habit.
Totes, tees, and bookish goods for the readers in your life — plus all the gifts that make us more than a bookstore.
Shop local
Love your local indie bookstore.
When you shop local, you keep our community's bookstore — and its café, gallery, and gatherings — alive and thriving.
New, used, and a little bit of everything.
Thousands of new and gently used titles, special orders for almost any book in print, a Blind Date with a Book, and gifts galore — here's a peek at what we're loving on the shelves and in the gift nook right now.
Good books pair well with good coffee.
Our café pours fresh-brewed organic coffee, micro-roasted by Hogan Brothers, alongside Big Train chai, frozen hot chocolate, crushed-fruit smoothies, seasonal lattes, and spiced cider from Mountain Cider Company. Pair it with a homemade pastry or a keto treat from Dad's Keto Kitchen — to enjoy among the shelves, or to take with you.
Everything available for takeout — call ahead at 508-949-6232 and your order will be ready.
There's always something happening.
Author talks, book groups, open-mic poetry, live music, and creative workshops — come for a book, stay for the community. All are welcome.
