About Scuppernong Books
Scuppernong Books sits at the heart of downtown Greensboro, an independent bookstore and community reading venue at 304 S Elm St. With a welcoming in-store cafe serving coffee, wine, and beer, it’s a natural spot for author readings, book launches, and intimate literary events. The venue supports flexible event spaces capable of seating about 40 in a classroom-style setup, making it ideal for small gatherings, signings, and discussions. The Scuppernong team collaborates with local writers through Scuppernong Editions and participates in the Greensboro Bound Literary Festival, further enriching Greensboro’s literary scene.
Whether you’re planning a book talk, poetry reading, or casual meetup, Scuppernong Books offers a warm, versatile setting that feels like a friend in the business—reliable, straightforward, and ready to help you secure seats for your next event.
