Description

Booknook and Bean in Topham Mall is a charming little coffee spot with a cool name that offers a great selection of beverages and sweets. The staff is friendly and provides genuine service, and the coffee is strong and well-made. The small selection of sweets, like the salted caramel brownie, are delicious. The decor is inviting, with a book exchange system where customers can select a book to read while they enjoy their coffee. The almond croissant is particularly recommended for its perfect balance of sweetness and crispy texture. The service is quick and friendly, making it a great spot for a caffeine pick-me-up. Overall, Booknook and Bean is a hidden gem in the CBD where you can relax with a good book and a great cup of coffee.

I like this little place and its cool name!  I shamelessly responded to their email offer to 'be back' and get a free coffee!  Flat white thus accompanied me back to my books at work - well the office paperwork etc.  Nice texture and gentle depth to the flat white.  Thanks for the friendly chat about the upgrade to Topham Mall north and the fast service!  With an Arnie tag line, I may well be back again

Great selection of sweets and beverages. My orange hot chocolate and brownie were just what the doctor ordered on a chilly weekday morning. Very friendly staff, and I love the selection of books to read in store and/or buy for a small donation.

Went in to get a quick drink and got it as quickly as ordered. Freshly made green tea matcha. Although it was my first time trying the drink, I liked it's kicky taste. Quick and friendly service and liked the decor of the place.
