Happy Medium Books Café is the community bookstore and 3rd space in Historic Jacksonville, FL. We are known for book events, author signings, the variety of book clubs, local art and classes. Parents and children love story time, weekly music classes, the train table, and the curated selection of children’s books. Adults come to knit or crochet, play mahjong, play Bingo or Bookish Trivia, learn a new skill, meet up with friends and make new ones. There is something for everyone at Happy Medium!
