Love books?
Love cider?
Books on Tap is your new favorite monthly ritual.
Join us in the Telegraph District every second Thursday for a laid-back, welcoming evening that blends book talk, community connection, and quiet reading time — all with a glass of cider in hand.
Here’s how it works:
-Part One: Book Talk (30–45 mins)
-Bring a book you love and give a quick 1–2 minute pitch on why someone else should read it. Fiction, nonfiction, fantasy, memoir — all genres welcome.
-Plus: Select months will feature a local author or bookseller to spotlight their work or store.
-Part Two: Sip + Connect (30 mins)
-Mingle with fellow book lovers, chat one-on-one about your favorite reads, and grab another round from the bar.
-Part Three: Read + Reflect (30 mins)
-Find a cozy seat, settle in with your current read, and enjoy some quiet time surrounded by other readers.
No assigned books. No pressure. Just community, conversation, and cider.
Come solo or bring a friend — we’ll save you a seat.
