This place is amazing friendly, great service, AMAZING cocktails and lovely laid back atmosphere. You have to be members to drink here, but that’s a 1 minute driving license scan.
Can’t say enough good things about this place - we love it!
Love the cozy atmosphere of this place! The bartenders were all amazing. The quality of the cocktails was great. Love the unique things offered here - the different variety of books and cocktails. They have a lot of things you wouldn't find anywhere else.
I loved this bookstore! A small location so not a large selection of books but the books there are wide ranging and quality choices. It has a great atmosphere though with a bar serving literary themed drinks as well as coffee or tea and several places to sit and enjoy.
Outstanding bar with a small, focused bookstore attached. Great venue for local, live entertainment!!
Shonti was amazing. She has an amazing and fun personality and the place itself has great music and calm vibe. Though they were playing music I was still able to focus on reading. Did you know you buy a book they give you ANY drink for freeee.
Great coffee, not very crowded and a low key atmosphere. I love the happy hour idea of buying a book and getting one drink for free! Definitely worth visiting.
Dallas isn't all Dallas thinks Dallas is, but The Wild Detectives is something that defines a special spot in a city like Dallas. I moved a few thousand miles away and coming back to this place was instant bliss.
This is one of my go-to bars. Great outdoor back patio, amazing cocktails, wonderful bartender and service. I overall just love the concept.
The Irish coffee is my go to drink to unwind and relax. All the bartenders know their stuff and I've never received anything less than a perfect cocktail.
Great spot for hanging out, studying, or meetings. I always love the ambiance here & it’s in my top 5 fave cafés in Dallas! The book selection is also really good.
This is a cool little coffee shop/bar/bookshop in the Bishop Arts District. All the drinks we tried were well made and the staff was friendly on busy Sunday afternoon. Was there for an open mic with DAMPA, and it was a great outdoor venue.
This place is so cute! The people are kind and it’s such a fun atmosphere.
Visited with my brother. It was cute from the start and the concept is great. Coffee definitely needs more TLC but overall a wonderful experience even with the 1 staffed person there. He was doing his job, taking care of customers and had a good vibe doing so.
Far and away one of my favorite places in Dallas. You walk through the door and feel so comfortable, the book collection is amazing. You can grab a drink while you browse. There is a great outdoor space out back. Every time I go I discover new books that I knew nothing about!
Easily my favorite book store + coffee shop, the selection is great, there’s always a sense of community, the hours are accommodating, and they have great events on a regular basis.
The atmosphere was posh and bohemian. This book venue was short on books but long on class. I spoke with a regular patron who advised of the array of intellectual activities on offer pre COVID. They served alcohol which is a great addition for some. As I am not a purveyor of wine, spirits, or any al
I went here for the 'talking dirty after dark' event and....
The event was a blast with some amazing(ly brave & awesome) story tellers and a wonderful MC. I'm looking forward to going back for the next but be sure, I will def be back to wild detectives before then. Great space, attentive bar staff.
Great community hub with music, poetry, cumbia events and more. Buy a book and get a free drink, no wi fi Wednesdays. Have gone here to study, relax, and holding book club. Limited indoor space and few food option. Nice outdoor area in the back and some seating up front as well. Parking can be diffi
