I'm an east coast girl living in a west coast world. I grew up in New England before moving to SoCal for several years. I then lived in NYC or a year before moving to AZ in 2009. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years of my adult life and have a deep love for photography, writing, and traveling around the U.S. as well as to far-flung locations around the world. Travel is my life and writing about it is a dream!
It’s always quite relaxing to find a cozy spot at home where you can curl up with a good book and read as you sip a glass of wine. But why stay at home when you can go out to a place like The Literary, where you can pluck a book from the shelves, order a glass of wine, and find a cozy spot to sit, drink, and read?
The Literary & Hopscotch first opened its doors in the fall of 2021 as a bookstore, bar, and cafe. With such a perfect combination, it's an ideal place to spend an afternoon relaxing with your favorite book and a beverage.
Combining the love of books with the love of libations, The Literary has teamed up with Hopscotch to bring the community a unique experience. The Literary & Hopscotch offers a wide selection of literary titles as well as a bar, food, and events.
This book bar is not only about books and booze. It sometimes offers live music, author readings, children's story times, and other events. Check the calendar to see what's coming up next.
The Literary & Hopscotch provides a wonderful gathering place in the community for those who enjoy literature, incredible food and drinks, and good conversation. Support a local book store by spending time and shopping here.
The Literary & Hopscotch is located on Neil Street in Champaign. If you haven’t been here yet, you should make plans to go! If you know of another book bar in Illinois, please tell us about it in the comments. For more information, visit The Literary’s website and Facebook page.
