New Hours Begin October 1, 2023

We will be open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. On Wednesdays, we will remain open until 7 p.m. We will be closed Saturday and Sunday. We hope this schedule will allow for more coffee-shop patronage in the morning as well as eliminate evening business-hours overlap with Fourth Form Martial Arts.

We welcome your patronage through September 2023 on Monday through Friday, 10a to 6p, and Saturday, 10a to 2p. These are our minimum-guaranteed hours; we are often open earlier in the morning (sometimes as early as 8:30a) and later in the evening, as the facility schedule dictates. If you stop by and see the red "Open" sign lit, you are welcome to come in regardless of whether we're officially open.

We close for the weather when Wyoming Public Schools closes.

On rare occasions, we close for a few hours mid-day because of coverage gaps. We post these closures on our blog and place a sign in the building's atrium. Presently anticipated dates include:

  • Tuesday, Sept. 19, through Thursday, Sept. 21 — closed all day for out-of-state travel. In addition, Thursday, Sept. 28 through Saturday, Sept. 30, for inventory reconciliation and out-of-state travel.
  • Friday, Aug. 25, and Sat., Aug. 26 – closed all day for out-of-state travel.
  • Saturday, Oct. 7, 2023 – closed all day because the team will be at an event in Illinois
  • Friday, Nov. 3 & Saturday, Nov. 4, 2023 – the 44th Street location is closed but we'll be conducting book-retail operations from our booth at G.R. Comic Con at DeVos Place
  • Saturday, Nov. 11, 2023 – Closed to the public for a special event.

We are closed on Sundays, select civil/religious holidays, and planned business inservice days. The 2023 calendar of closures includes:

  • New Year's Day (01 Jan 2023)
  • Writers' Retreat (13/14 March 2023)

Jason's Books & Coffee shares space in The L&G Center. Of note, Fourth Form Martial Arts Studio also operates in the building, and during the 5p hour on most weekdays, the dojo conducts class in the events space on the other side of the bookstore's interior wall.

Interested in Uechi-ryu karate? Jason teaches the 9a class on Monday and Wednesday. So "Sensei Barista" will make you Americano then walk you through your stretching exercises and kata forms.
