The Book Loft Bookstore in Solvang, California

The Book Loft Storefront

A couple of weekends ago, my husband and I took a day trip to Solvang, California, which is about an hour's drive north of where we live. I love visiting Solvang, which happens to be a very charming, Danish inspired town!

During our visit to Solvang we visited many of the shops and enjoyed lunch there too. 

I especially enjoyed visiting The Book Loft Bookstore during our visit to Solvang. The Book Loft Bookstore is a two story bookstore with both new and used books for sale and has been in business since 1970. They carry a nice selection of Scandinavian books both in English and other foreign languages. I also enjoyed the Out of Print book t-shirts and other knick knacks for sale at The Book Loft. The Book Loft staff is friendly and helpful.

As an added bonus, adjacent to The Book Loft Bookstore is the Bulldog Cafe, which serves coffee, desserts, and sandwiches and also offers free wifi for guests wanting access to the internet.

The Hans Christian Andersen Museum, which celebrates Denmark's most famous writer, is also located adjacent to The Book Loft Bookstore.

So, if you happen to visit Solvang and are looking for something to read, then visit The Book Loft.
