Honey Flutters Teas & Books, "a tea room dining experience and a bookstore complete with clubs and events," held its grand opening celebration earlier this month at 18771 FM 2252, Bldg. 23 inside Bracken Village, San Antonio, Tex., Community Impact reported.
"It's been a whole new chapter, and it was time for me to choose what that meant for me," said owner Melissa Swift, who opened her business after leaving the corporate world.
She added that there is a handpicked selection of books, from romantasy to standard fiction: "We really want to focus on welcoming everyone and making people of all ages interested in reading again."
Swift holds a monthly book club and English tutoring each week. In the future, she said she would like to host more local San Antonio-based artists and authors and have their work displayed at the shop. "It makes it far more interactive for artists," she said. "People will be able to engage and interact with them in-person."
The tea room features an assortment of teas, along with pastries and smaller savory bites. Guests can also get their own tea and book boxes.
