Uzaktan bakınca tablonun bütün detaylarını daha iyi görüyor insan. Sevgili Elif, Baykuş Kitap Kafe, Kırklareli için gerçekten emek veren, kadınlar, çocuklar, bütün insanlar için bilim, sanat, edebiyat üretmeye çalışan, aynı zamanda huzurla ve keyifle oturabileceğiniz kahvenizi limonatanızı güzel sohbetler ile yudumlayabileceğiniz bir yer. Sanırım Kırklareli'den Baykuş Kitap Kafe'yi ve Elif'in emeklerini çıkarsak, sadece kafelerde dedikodu üreten ve her şey için sürekli şikayet eden ama elini taşın altına koymayan bir grup insan kalır. Emeklerin için teşekkürler sevgili Elif. İyi ki varsın Kırklareli halkı için Londradan sevgiler

"Home sweet home" Extraordinary bookstore&cafe in Kırklareli.renowed for homemade cakes, cookies, turtas, delicious BAYKUŞ Toast and other Baykuş Special Drinks...you can feel beauty of food's fragrances, have candit talks, moreover, maybe you can get lost in huge stories of secondhand books and maybe have a chace to listen "Tales for Adults" which are written by Elif... When you arrive BAYKUŞ BOOKSTORE &CAFE, you will meet with Elif, who is the owner of the cafe... Briefly; you will feel sweetness and calmness like your home at Baykuş Bookstore&Cafe :))

Amazingly quiet and peaceful place for bookworms. You can get your warm drink of whatever you want and get upstairs where you can find many books from different genres or can bring your own and read it in absolute tranquility.

Every day I melt more with this place. Here is an oasis for those passing through the deserts of life and the arid environments of brutal cities. Here are peace and harmony away from the superficiality of life and work. Here you sit with yourself and around you beautiful souls. No place is better. Here I met the nicest people. Here I found the most beautiful smile. And here I had the best thoughts. Here I read the best book. And here I played my best chess match. Here I heard the most beautiful words and wrote my most beautiful words. Just here I swayed with the uniquely selected songs and music. Here I attended the most beautiful birthday. Here I had the most delicious cup of coffee, limonata, mate tea, and tost. Here I ate the most delicious cookies at all. And every day I grew in love with and nostalgia to this place more. Here, "yıldızlar birbirleriyle konuşabilir, Insan insanlarla konuşmazsa.
