About this Event
Quiet Reading Club Meetup at BERGEN HALL!
Our June Meetup will be hosted at one of our favorite neighborhood spots:
in Jersey City on November 10th from 6:30–8:30 PM.
Bergen Hall has quickly become a favorite gathering place for our bookish community, and we are so excited to return for another Quiet Reading Club meetup this June. Known to many of our readers as the home of our fan-favorite Grown Up Book Fair, Bergen Hall brings together great food, craft cocktails, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes it the perfect place to slow down, read, and connect with fellow book lovers.s.
Quiet Reading Club is simple: bring whatever you’re reading (a novel, memoir, poetry, or graphic novel—anything goes!), order a drink or bite, and enjoy a couple of hours of calm, cozy reading time in community.
Here’s the vibe:
📚 Bring your current read or something new
☕ Order a drink, dinner or appetizers from Bergen Hall's delicious menu
🕯️ Unwind, read quietly, and recharge
🗨️ Stick around to swap book recs or chat with fellow readers
