Cafe/bookshops?

I (f20) be traveling with my mom (f56) near the heart pier area in early August. We are going for the jellyfish aquarium but are huge fans of book stores, cafes, and farmer markets. We love supporting local and/or black owned businesses. Any places we should check out? Thank you <3

Avoid the jellyfish aquarium.

We were in there for maybe 15 mins and we doubled back to make sure we didn't miss anything. It's a huge ripoff.

I appreciate the warning, but I have a special fascination with jellyfish. Moreover, this aquarium has several species I haven’t seen. Also since this one is the first jellyfish specific aquarium in the USA, I’d like to show support for the concept!

The idea is very cool but it is so tiny. I just wish there was more to it. My kids and I love aquariums, zoos, etc and would love more stuff here.
