Important notice
Please do not leave books at this location unless they are
already registered with bookcrossing.

If you are not a bookcrosser and have books that you wish to part with,
may I politely request that you donate them to one of the many charity shops that are located just down the road from the cafe.
Thank you.



Cafe Zen OBCZ is the location for the local Bookcrossing Meet-up
held on the first Saturday every other month from 10.30am - 12.30pm.

You can find us mooching around eating chocolate cake, drinking coffee and hot chocolate - oh, and occasionally we'll talk about the books we've been reading too.

Meet-Up dates for 2010 are:

6th March
1st May
3rd July
4th September
6th November


Please PM Jive-Monster if you would like more details.


We have a new bookshelf downstairs that is quite grand. These are for bookcrossing books only. Please see the note at the top of the page regarding books.

While you're there I really do recommend that you try one of their milkshakes. Choose a chocolate bar and they'll make a milkshake out of it for you. Gorgeous!!

Very friendly staff and wonderfully comfortable chairs downstairs. Has a lovely feel about it. There are wonderful plans for the upstairs - think laid back Morroccan and you'll be on the right route. They are having low bookshelves put in, low tables, rugs etc - we won't want to go home!

It's a free Wi-Fi zone so it'll be easy to have a coffee and make release notes or journal books that you find there.

On Tuesday and Thursday afternoons they have a childrens storytime that is well attended, children with the story-lady and parents with the coffee.

Outside there are tables with some of them overlooking the War Memorial and a lovely area of grassland and flower borders. It has quite a cosmopolitan feel about it - and coupled with the fact that it's frequented by students from the local college - it's a very successful OBCZ and a fantastic venue for our meet-ups.

Opening Times:
Monday - Saturday: 7.30am - 5.00pm
Sunday - not yet
