The Greater
Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce welcome The Readery to
Sandpoint. The Readery is a family owned and operated amalgamation of Café,
Coffee shop, and Bookstore located on First Ave in Sandpoint, 209 N First Ave.
They offer amazing local, organic coffee from Avion Coffee out of Hayden, ID, a
full and diverse breakfast and lunch menu, and a small, but choice, collection
of used books.
What sets The
Readery apart in the restaurant industry is an unwavering commitment to
quality. ‘I use only the best ingredients I can find, and everything is made
from scratch,’ said Michael Boshka, co-owner. ‘I roast all the sandwich meats
in house and use top quality cheeses, fresh bread, and great produce. Our food
is unique, comforting and honest. We don’t cut corners and that is reflected in
the taste.’
The Readery
is co-owned by Michael Boshka, his wife, Katie Stang, and his sister and her
husband, Anna Boshka and Brian Grosenbaugh. Both Boshka’s grew up in Bigfork,
Montana where as they matured they worked nearly every position in the
restaurant industry. Most of Michael’s collegiate career was spent training as
a classical guitarist and composer, but cooking was always a means of income
and a passion for the non-starving artist. Anna and Brian currently teach
English at the Monarch School in Heron, MT. The Readery is a combination of our
various passions, but namely great food and literature.
The Readery
hopes to become a venue for cultural events of all kinds. ‘We have had poets,
authors and musicians in for performances and we plan on doing many more events
in the future,’ explained owner Michael Boshka. ‘Anyone that is passionate
about good food, and great coffee, or appreciates a good book in a comfortable
atmosphere should visit The Readery. It is a great place to meet friends, have
a business meeting, or relax on a couch and play some scrabble or read a good
book. We also strive to accommodate those with special dietary restrictions and
are happy to tweak our menu to anyone’s needs.’
Please help
