Page and Palette
When you walk into Page & Palette, you instantly know that you have stepped into a Fairhope landmark. The shelves are packed with amazing books, gifts, and notes from staff about the books.
They host great book signings frequently giving you the chance to meet local authors.
I am going to admit that the 1st time I walked into Page & Palette I knew I was going to walk out with a ton of new books, art supplies, and journals I just had to have.
I truly love that you can relax with a craft cocktail from the full bar, or around the corner, you can visit Latte Da Cafe and get a coffee and pastries.
This Fairhope Bookstore is one of my favorite stores to wander into and lose track of time. My husband always laughs the my purchases are always more than I planned to make.
Latte Da Coffee Shop
Just inside the entrance is the super cute Latte Da Cafe which serves coffee, tea, and sweet treats. They have super cute and comfy chairs and couches perfect for relaxing with the new book you just bought.
We love to relax over a great cup of coffee and chai tea and talk about our day in Fairhope. There are honestly so many fun things to do in Fairhope and so many great Fairhope restaurants that we have to talk through which ones we are going to visit.
This is one of our favorite coffee shops in Fairhope, AL
