The Wild Detectives

My favorite bookstore/coffee shop/bar in all of Dallas. Great atmosphere, excellent book selection, delicious coffee and cocktails. Plenty of patio seating in the back, in addition to inside seating. The baristas are fantastic quick, attentive, just perfect. The place can get busy at times with lots of people crowding the bar area to place their order, which is a sign of how good the drinks are but also means that you might have to wait just a little for your order. I love their books even more than their coffee. This is an authentic indie bookstore, with the sort of books that customers who like to frequent indie bookstores will like to buy, if that makes sense. Highly recommended.

First off, I love their company policy to turn wifi off on weekends. People seriously need to befriend their neighbors and people in the community in real life rather than be addicted to the internet and social media. This is a house, converted into a book store in a residential neighborhood. More accurately, it is a hybrid of a coffee shop and wine bar. They serve breakfast tacos as well. The backyard is very nice and has plenty of seating. I think this is a cool interesting concept. It is definitely romantic. There is no parking lot so you have to park on the street.

I love this place! I first became aware because of friends performing here then I happened to do a mini zine that got launched here came out again now it is one of my favorite stops on a nice day for some tea or coffee to browse their books, chill on the patio or catch an evening show of poetry, Shakespeare or music.

Very cool atmosphere, great place to sit with a friend or two and have a chat, write a book or just have a drink. Friend had the tequila mimosa, grapefruit instead of orange juice. Love being surrounded by books and vinyl records in a relaxing atmoso!

How can anyone give this place less than 5 stars? What an amazing place to hang, meet people, buy a book, record, have a cocktail, glass of wine, cup of coffee, or see a show. Pretty much every single thing I love in one place.
