Welcome to Eighty-Seven8
At Eighty-Seven8, we believe books have the power to slow us down, bring us together, and remind us who we are.
Founded by two cousins born in 1987 and 1988, Eighty-Seven8 began with a simple realization: there wasn't a place that truly felt like home for book lovers.
We wanted more than a coffee shop where reading felt like an afterthought. More than a bookstore focused only on bestsellers and transactions. We dreamed of a space where stories, community, and comfort could exist together—a place where readers could linger, discover, connect, and belong.
So we decided to create it.
More Than a Bookstore
Eighty-Seven8 is built on the belief that reading is more than a hobby.
It's a form of self-care.
It's an adventure.
It's education.
It's healing.
It's connection.
Whether you're searching for your next five-star read, attending a book club, studying in a quiet corner, meeting a friend for coffee, or simply taking a break from the noise of everyday life, we want Eighty-Seven8 to feel like a sanctuary.
A place where every visitor feels welcome.
A place where stories are celebrated.
A place where community thrives.
Our Mission
To create a beautiful, welcoming literary space where readers can slow down, reconnect with themselves, and experience meaningful community through books, conversation, and curated experiences.

Why Eighty-Seven8?
The name Eighty-Seven8 honors the years its founders were born—1987 and 1988—and represents the friendship, family, and shared love of books that inspired this dream.
What started as conversations between two cousins became a vision for a community-centered bookstore where everyone can find a story that speaks to them.
Our Promise
Whether you visit us online, attend one of our events, purchase a book box, or someday walk through the doors of our future bookstore, our goal remains the same:
To help you discover stories you'll love and create a space where every chapter feels like coming home.
Welcome to Eighty-Seven8.
We're so glad you're here.
