Very cute nostalgic book store/cafe Owners were very lovely and welcoming Really great assortment of books I really enjoyed the turkey croissant with the navy bean soup
I feel like I’m at my Grandpa’s house the owner was so hospitable. The prices are fantastic! Food is yummy. Eclectic collection of books, history, art, and toys. I bought some blank fantasy figurines that I painted for table gaming.
Such a cozy little nook 🤎 the man at the register was very kind and we found a lot of fantastic interesting old reads! Got a delightful peach milkshake that was just the right size and not too sweet. Will be back to explore some more :)
My wife and I have always dreamed of someday retiring, and opening a little combination bookshop and ice cream parlor. Yesterday, we walked into our dream made real. Corner Door Fountain is just what we'd imagined we'd open someday... a great collection of books, puppets, knick-knacks, along with ice cream, coffee, and homemade soups and sandwiches. I hesitate to tell you how good the prices were for what we got; I'm afraid a bunch of people will invade this sanctuary of awesomeness in Millwood, and somehow ruin it... but I got a good sized, two meat deli sandwich with pretzels and a pickle spear for SEVEN BUCKS. I splurged and got a bowl of homemade spirit pea and ham soup... and the nice lady who brought it to me also brought over salt and pepper, because "we don't put too much salt in our soup, so everyone can just add however much they like." I could gush more, bit you get the idea. Step back in time, and go buy a few books, and enjoy them with a handmade milkshake. (Mine was peach)
Would give more stars if I could. This cafe and more is a piece of forgotten Americana. They pour amazing espresso, the soups are great. But the sausage dog is amazing!!! Oh and the meals are big and I’m pretty sure I paid less than $5 for my sausage meal….. I’m gonna say it again I paid $4 something for the sandwich. I will be back probably weekly bc of how happy we were with the food and service.

A nostalgic haven where sweet treats meet timeless reads in Millwood.
