In the last 5 years I've gone twice and only spent money on coffee. With the tables of calendars, toys, and other 'stuff', books don't seem to be the focus. The last time I was there, sometime in the fall of 2015, they were even having some sort of sewing demonstration in the back, but how this tied into a book, or books, wasn't evident.
I can't see this bar / restaurant gimmick helping at all.

Did you walk back to see what book the person was sewing from? Bet there was a book or kit being hawked.
