Stacks Book Club is opening this weekend in Oro Valley, Ariz., Tucson Foodie reported.
Co-owners Crispin and Elizabeth Jeffrey-Franco will open their doors to customers for the first time tomorrow, Saturday, July 8. Located at 1880 E. Tangerine Rd., the store carries around 2,000 new titles across a variety of genres and also features a cafe selling tea, coffee, beer, and wine. Grab-and-go food items like bagels and pastries are also available.
"We are ecstatic," Crispin Jeffrey-Franco told KGUN9. "We've been thinking about this idea almost four years now. The construction process has been coming up on a year so we are really excited to have the doors open and get to see people enjoying this space and getting to do what we really set out to do here."
Stacks began as a pop-up store that made appearances at local restaurants, tap rooms, and farmers markets. Last year the owners found a suitable bricks-and-mortar space in Oro Valley and decided to make their dreams of owning a full-fledged bookstore and cafe a reality.
