I go to BAM for the books. Really! My wife and I enjoy browsing our selections while sipping tea in Joe Muggs. Pricing is reasonable considering the competition. My only complaint is the slow service. I'll live with that.

The new store is great so glad they are done with the repairs from 2021 Hurricanes and are back in this location.

I went with the Millionaire Cold Brew, they added chocolate chips so kinda hard to suck through a straw, however it's fantastic. Yum!
