The Lunch Box

There IS always something new at A New Thing – the coffee shop has evolved into a cafe with great fresh salads, sandwiches & soups! Come by between 10 and 2:30 (Tues-Sat) for a real lunch!

something New at A New Thing

Grilled Reuben Sandwiches are now served at The Lunch Box, the sandwich shop that opened inside A New Thing this past summer.  This is a great local shop where you can accomplish a lot in  one stop.  Eat a great lunch, dessert, and/or sip of tea while using our wiFi, browsing the books, finding the perfect gift (for everyone from the special little ones all the way to the great grandmothers),  and often hearing some good live music ranging from classical piano to Merle Travis style played on a jazz guitar.  Like the facebook page of  The Lunch Box and of Stone Bridge Books, Gifts & Music.

Cafe ?

Nope, there is not a cafe in the store now. However, there is usually a fresh pot of coffee, hot water for tea, soft drinks, and a few packaged snacks available with a dollar or two donation honor system.
During events, we sometimes have more of a coffee house atmosphere. Let us know what you’d like!

Another new thing in A New Thing

I hate to admit that bookstores, as we’ve known them in this past century or two, are a thing of the past.   But the high rate of failed bookstores in  the past several years tells the truth.  Big stores, little stores, new ones, old faithful ones – from London, England to Clarksville, Tennessee – have closed their doors in the past 10 years.

To stay open bookstores have to make many adjustments.  One of the things we are adding to the books in our store is musical accessories and some instruments.  We’ve always had music and art because we love it and it is important for culture and education.  But now we want our place to be a destination, not only to hear good music, but to buy guitar strings, cords, drumsticks, etc.   So stop by and scout out our musical additions and let us know what you’d like to see and buy here.
