Books.
Brunch.
Bar.
Cafe.
Yes, this is real life.
Why a Bookbar?
First of all, why the heck not? Second, because books and wine (and coffee and tasty plates) pair perfectly together. Third, and most importantly, because Chambana needs a 'third place'- a place where people can come together around conversation, great books, and shared interests, without having to have some kind of membership to belong.
​
We want you here, just as you are.
​
Plus, Champaign-Urbana deserves an indie bookshop all its own.
