Trident Booksellers and Cafe

With a long-awaited expansion, The Trident is thrilled to announce the launch of a brand-new private event space!

Nestled among bookshelves on the second floor, our new private room is appropriately named The Stacks. Inside the 1,350 square feet of event space, an original brick wall and exposed ceiling pipes set the tone for a stylish industrial environment and serve as a blank slate for your event.

WHY BOOK YOUR EVENT WITH THE TRIDENT?

Located in a classic Newbury Street brownstone, your event will take place on one of Boston's most renowned streets, yet we offer an approachable price point that is hard to come by in the Back Bay.

The Trident offers full-service in-house catering. Our private event menus feature Trident's signature breakfast served all day, plus classic appetizer, lunch, and dinner options. Plus, a dedicated bartender is at your beck and call to serve up signature drinks, specialty coffees, fresh juices, beer, wine, and more.
You will have a dedicated event coordinator at your fingertips. We'll help you determine the best room configuration, plan the perfect menu, and anticipate all aspects of your guests' experience.

You have the option to choose from unique add-ons to enhance your event experience. Hosting a baby shower, how about including a Baby Book Bar? Want the Trident to facilitate a custom trivia night? You got it. With us, your event will not only take place in a unique bookstore atmosphere, but the experience will also be one-of-a-kind.

When you host your event at the Trident, you are supporting a small family-owned business. For 40 years, we have been Boston's beloved indie bookstore known for our quirky and welcoming personality. More than ever, we believe supporting local businesses is essential to the culture of our city.
