Bibliotheque is a bookstore, café, and wine bar in the heart of New York’s famed SoHo neighborhood. It was founded in 2022 by A.J. Jacono, an author who has published work in The Best American Mystery and Suspense, Southeast Review, The Offing, and many other literary magazines. He is also the founder of The Spotlong Review, a literary and arts journal, and his debut novel, YES, YES, will be published on February 23, 2027. You can preorder his book HERE.
A.J. and his outstanding operations team share a passion for great literature, outstanding food and coffee, exciting community events, and, of course, exceptional wine. Bibliotheque was born from a desire to combine these interests in an elegant, visually stunning space.
At Bibliotheque, we believe that stories have a major impact. We are proud to house over 10,000 books old and new, rare and accessible.
Bibliotheque offers food from from a variety of outstanding vendors, beans from Onyx Coffee Lab, and a staggering collection of wine from Bordeaux, Burgundy, Tuscany, and countless other regions. We encourage visitors to sit down, plug in, and sample our hospitality.
Bibliotheque is also an event and cultural space. We regularly host author readings, wine tastings, intimate musical acts, Mahjong nights, singles socials, and much, much more.
