I ordered the tomato basil soup. It was delicious! My friend who ordered the grilled cheese and tomato soup also loved the food. The owner and the staff were friendly and the service was timely. Highly recommended!

Truly a hidden gem! After moving into a nearby neighborhood, I came across Chapters while looking for a quiet spot for remote work. The outside patio is charming, the staff are wonderful and attentive, and the food/bakery items are SO good. Highly recommend!

Chapters Cafe is a hidden gem tucked away in the Dove Library! Whether you're here to get some work done, or simply unwind with a good book, Chapters Cafe has everything to make your experience perfect. I've had the chance to try multiple items on their menu, and everything has been a hit so far.
My personal favorite has to be the Paden's Special. The bread was so fresh, and the avocado was perfectly ripe—truly a delicious and filling sandwich. If you're looking for something else, their tuna on a pretzel croissant is another must-try; it's delectably fresh and comes out quickly. And don't even get me started on their mochas—absolutely divine!
What sets this place apart is not just the food but also the outstanding service. The staff is always friendly and polite, making you feel right at home. Despite some reviews that mention slow service, I've always found the staff to be attentive and efficient. The owner is an absolute sweetheart and takes the time to ensure everyone has a wonderful dining experience.
As for the atmosphere, the café has charming indoor and outdoor seating areas that are incredibly cozy, making it a perfect spot for both work and leisure. Plus, you can't beat the convenience of being located right by the library entrance.
The prices are reasonable, especially considering the quality of food and service you're getting. A perfect spot for a meal that falls within the $1–$10 range per person.
Ignore the naysayers; this cafe is run with love, not like a 'public employee-owned place' as some have tried to label it. Chapters Cafe is the epitome of what a community café should be—great food, excellent service, and a cozy atmosphere. I will definitely be coming back and recommend that you give it a try!
