Books & Bites is where your love of stories meets your love of snacks.

Join us for a cozy, community-centered gathering where bookworms can mingle, munch, and make new literary connections. Whether you’re deep into your current read or just here for the vibes, this is your invitation to slow down and savor both pages and plates.

We’ll have:

• Curated bookish displays & pop-up bookshop selections
• Delicious local bites (Catch me munching on the oat milk brownie soft serve)
• Cozy corners to chat about what you’re reading (or swap recs!)
• Optional reading time if you just want to nibble and turn pages in peace

No assigned reading. No pressure. Just stories, snacks, and good company. Come hungry for books and bites!

About The Pouring Pages

We’re a pop-up bookshop and storytelling space on a mission to bring bookworms together. From cozy reading parties to creative collabs, we create community spaces where readers can meet, connect, and fall in love with books all over again. Let’s make reading social and even more fun.

The Pouring Pages was founded in honor of a quiet legacy. When our founder, Nina, shared that one of her biggest regrets was never starting her own business, it planted a seed. After her passing, our founder held onto the one thing they always agreed on — books — and decided to build something beautiful in her memory. Every event is a love letter to that shared joy and to the belief that stories can bring us closer.
