GLENSIDE!

Glenside Book Garden will be a cozy destination in the heart

of 19038. The perfect place to bring your child, meet a friend, enjoy a date, and unwind before or after a barre class at Align. Pick up your next great read, then browse records at Vinyl Chickie, take a look at the artisan offerings at Dovetail, and grab a coffee at Raven Cafe. Make an afternoon or evening of it at Glenside’s nearby breweries, bars, restaurants, and music venues just steps away.

Glenside Book Garden is a new independent bookstore opening in mid-2026 at Glenside Lanes. Current bestsellers, classics, and favorites will be curated for the living-room style bookshop. We will host author readings and signings, book clubs, produce literary events, and genre specific pop-up shops. It will be a welcoming gathering place that spreads joy and enriches the local economy, and thrives on that Glenside Pride.
