Great bookshop- I found the latest book by my favorite author (Ruth Ozeki) and also some locally written books in Pensacola. I sat outside with a glass of wine and enjoyed my new book! The staff are kind. It seemed like most books even ones geared for children are mostly geared toward a progressive push with very little on conservative views. The reading room for children is beautifully done.

Very cute bookstore/Cafe. If I lived in the area It would be a great place to spend a day or so. The only downside I would say is the parking is paid downtown. Even so, my partner (a librarian) and I both loved it and thought it was fun. The food is very good.

A small and quiet bookstore that is the perfect place to sit back and do some work or read. Will be visiting again.

I have been to bodacious many times, I am allergic to dairy but I like having blended coffees. When they arent busy, they will make me a dairy free blended chiller is chiller. I really appreciate that and Im thankful they are willing to go off menu and out of their way to make me happy.BTW, Is The Secret to a good non dairy chiller is the P protein powder.Oat milkEither espresso or cold brewA flavor (or 2)And Pea protein

Adorable cafe and bookshop. Small kids room with ages 2-teen reading material. They have a small section for just about every book genre with a few tiny tables and chairs. Lots of amazing gifts to browse. The coffee is fantastic. Espresso and milk alternatives. :)

Bodacious Bookstore, nestled in the heart of downtown Pensacola across from the YMCA, is a community focused independent book seller and coffee shop. The staff was engaging and enthusiastic in both the books area and the cafe. The atmosphere is open and airy well lit and comfortable.

The clean, well managed bookstore has many good selections for people of all ages and interests. Theres a childrens area for relaxing and pre-reading choices before buying, friendly staff, and outdoor tables to enjoy a coffee, smoothie, or treat purchased at the nice little cafe inside the east door.

Stopped in here unplanned to take a break from the heat, adorable shop! Great place to grab a cool soda or iced coffee. Nice size book selection for the size of the store. Definitely worth a peek if youre nearby!

I drove from Navarre beach today (50mins) to this bookstore, and let me tell you it was well worth it! The book section was fantastic! The staff was absolutely amazing and helpful. It was any bibliophile’s dream store. Highly recommend!

I have been going to the bodacious family of shops for several years now and was excited when they opened one right near the YMCA. We have gone there a few times to get coffees and books, but I made the mistake of ordering avocado toast this morning. I waited for 20 minutes while seeing the girl make food for three other people who had come in behind me. After she brought out the third order, I finally left without my food. When I called to speak to the manager she was not there and the girl couldnt tell me when the manager was going to be in. I definitely will continue to go to the one on Palafox Street but will not give this location my business anymore.

Very cool local bookstore, with a great coffee bar and delicious food.

GREAT COFFEE! Pretty cheap coffee, and the employees are very nice.The location is pretty clean and spacious for privacy.The recipe books seemed a little pricey, but then again I am an avid Amazon Primer.

I LOVE this place. They choose the books that they carry and have such a wide and greet variety that they are bound to have something that you will love! The coffee and tea and smoothies and food that they serve is also fantastic and the employees are wonderful!! Very highly recommend!

Mary Jane offered fantastic service with a bright warm smile.Coffee and atmosphere was great. Will return in the near future.

Fantastic place to pick up your morning coffee, both the manager and employees seemed glad youre there and will help you out if you have a last minute large order. If youre looking for a quiet spot to cool down for a second give them a shot.

Quaint new hideaway for those looking to get some work done, sip a tasty beverage, or find a unique gift for family and friends. The clean design and great location in Downtowns new Southtowne District is welcome inspiration reminiscent of Urban Chic cafes in Nashville, carrying items made locally in the South USA and promoting local growth.

A great place to have a tasty coffee and explore books too. Fantastic space for children!

LOVE this little treasure!!! Unique books and gifts, and the lobster bisque is ON POINT.

Very clean friendly staff.. Knowledge on the products even local products can be found here..

They seriously make THE BEST coffee! It’s so smooth, so flavorful - I’m obsessed. Any time I’m downtown, I now make it a point to go get coffee here. It’s a real treat! The staff is so friendly and helpful too.

I had an excellent breakfast sandwich at a very excellent price. $6 for eggs, cheese and avacado. I very much enjoyed!

Coffee is great! A fantastic place to study and relax woth friends

Friendly and polite service, the americano coffee was delicious

Very nice atmosphere, with a good selection of books. Their is a kids corner in the store as well.

Sami Is The Best !!! First Time Here Will Be Coming Back ! Highly Recommended!

This place is great! Its so calm and quiet and I love the environment. I was able to work in my own little space and have my snacks. Although their Chillers had a lot of coffee in it and was pretty bitter (but that may just be me). Other than that, the employees were very kind and the store itself was super cute! Definitely will be back.

Wow, had an amazing experience here this weekend. Maryjane is a great representative of this company. Made us feel welcomed as soon as we walked in. Even gave us a few book recommendations and took care of our parking situation. Just overall a great experience.

Best food and coffee ever. Everything taste great and delicious. Everyone is always welcome and nice.😇😇👍👍👍😃😃

Books, coffee, food. Im here more than my house.

Quiet, cozy, and cute atmosphere make this little bookstore & cafe a real gem. The staff were approachable, welcoming, and attentive. The bookstore has more than just books, offering notepads, cards, pens, stickers, calendars, and much more. The cafe serves coffee, espresso beverages and light fare such as bagels, soups, sandwiches and paninis. The WiFi was fast and made studying a breeze. Very much enjoyed visiting this week and plan to study here again soon!
