Crema's Take

Betty's Books is a beloved graphic novel and comic bookstore in Webster Groves that's recently added a cozy cafe serving fresh-made lattes and specialty drinks—the perfect pairing for browsing their carefully curated selection of comics, manga, and illustrated works. The owner and staff are genuinely warm and knowledgeable, making it an inviting spot whether you're a longtime comics enthusiast or just discovering the medium, and the bright, welcoming atmosphere makes it ideal for lingering with a book, meeting friends, or bringing kids to explore. It's the kind of quirky, community-focused independent spot that reminds you why local bookstores matter.

Small bookstores like these give me so much faith and hope for the community and the children in it. The staff is very kind and there is something, whether that be a book, toy, or office supply, for everyone. I bought a comic collection book, and I’ve yet to try their coffee and treats. Shop here instead of giving your money to Amazon!

Hands down the best graphic novel bookstore in St. Louis. Friendly knowledgeable staff - brightly lit - convenient location and and inspiration to walk into. If you’re new to comics or know exactly what you want to- this is the place for you. In a great neighborhood as well with lots of great coffee and restaurant options. Get some comics and then grab a coffee and have a perfect afternoon. They even have a great little selection of zines and books for kids.

An excellent boutique store featuring graphic novels, manga, western comic trades, and a very healthy collection of child and young adult books. If you're looking for a healthy stock of western comic trades beyond DC/Marvel, like Image, Dark Horse, etc., you'll probably find it here. Would recommend folks come check out what's on offer and you might find something unique, like the graphic novel version of Hamlet or Les Miserables!
