GLENSIDE!

The Glensie Book Garden will be a charming escape designed for you to linger and find your next escape. A perfect spot to browse, bring your child, a friend, a date, and unwind before or after taking a barre class a few doors down, or enjoying a meal or show at one of the nearby restaurants, bars, and music venues.

19038 deserves a place of whimsy where stories come alive, imaginations take flight, and connections are forged through a shared love of reading and all-things-Glenside. This indie bookstore will celebrate local authors, diversity, host engaging events and pop-up shops.

The location we’ve scouted is ideal and will open in mid 2026: close to public transportation, surrounded by restaurants, entertainment, exercise studios, and gift shops in a highly walkable, up-and-coming district in Glenside proper.

More than just a bookstore, it will be a welcoming gathering place that spreads joy, enriches the local economy,

and lifts the spirit of our town.
