Reviews
One of Wichita’s finest bookstores that doubles as a great food and coffee spot for College Hill, right at Douglas and Oliver. The book side looks wonderfully presented and inviting as ever, and has a very engaging and courteous staff. Tons of new releases and classics found here in a huge selection for all readers. The cafe side is a dependable place for sandwiches, salads, and definitely coffee. I’m thrilled that Watermark continues to be a success and I recommend it highly.
A must-visit storefront for bookworms seeking new books in a variety of formats - random book purchases, local authors and of course all the genres you can think of. There’s also a section for local Kansas/Wichita gifts. The in-store cafe with indoor and outdoor seating that has food and drink options, and it’s a perfect spot for a quiet morning, coffee date or family pit stop. Check it out!
Amazing first experience! The signed copies in the store is a very cool touch to help drive in more customers, in hopes of getting a signed copy of their book. I found a signed copy i wanted that was slightly damaged, but it was the last one so I asked the checkout person there, Matt, and he helped me out with it! The food and coffee is amazing, all the food tastes fresh and delicious, and the coffee is great! The espresso isn't burnt, and the syrup isn't overwhelming. The milkshakes are probably the best I've ever had! Definitely a new regular spot for me!
A bookstore and a Cafe all in one. If you like either, you'll enjoy this spot. Plenty of seating in the Cafe to grab a coffee or bite to eat, but there is also plenty of seating outside, too.
I love quaint cafes. If you read and enjoy books it’s a plus. I came for the food. BLT is so fresh along with tomato bisque soup. Enjoy the view out the window. Bright.
This was a neat little shop! I was buzzing about, looking for sweet, sweet nectar, when I saw the bright colors of what I thought was the intense glow of flowers. Instead, I found myself buzzing around this book store, after discovering that what caught my attention was the cover of a book. I had to leave a review though, as I know humans love this sort of thing to help determine whether or not to visit.
Well, from a bee to a human, I highly recommend this place. It is filled with all sorts of books, has friendly staff, and there are a selection of books signed by the authors (if you are in to that sort of thing). Buzzing around this place made me wish I was a human! The freedom to get away from the daily grind and just get lost in a nice book. You are all so lucky!

Well, back to slaving for the hive. Hope this review helps you all!
-Bee approved!
Charming store with welcoming and knowledgeable staff, I love the author events and browsing the shelves but they are also great at online book orders and call as soon as your order is ready.
I've loved this store since I was in high school, and over a decade later they still hold up.
Independent bookstore with lots of unique gift items and books. While not near as big as the big bookstores, it has plenty to keep you browsing for a laidback morning or afternoon. If you like journaling, book themed decors and knickknacks, Wichita and Kansas items, pens, etc this is for you. The little coffee/tea/snack area is a nice addition. If you go be sure to sign up for their free rewards program.
