What we’re about
Love diving into great stories - whether they're told on the page or the screen?
Have you ever finished a movie or book and thought, “Wow, that was amazing - but I need to talk about it with someone!”
Whether it's a film full of hidden symbolism or a novel that stayed with you long after the last page, you're in the right place.
This group is for readers and film lovers in the Henderson/Las Vegas area who want to discuss movies, books, and everything in between in a relaxed & welcoming space.
We meet regularly at The Coffee Press, a cozy coffee shop at the Paseo Verde Library in Henderson, at Green Valley Ranch.

Why Join?
This is a community to connect with fellow lovers of media, to learn from each other and share your own perspective too.
Each meetup gives you an opportunity to slow down, get inspired, and enjoy meaningful conversation with others who appreciate the details, emotions, and ideas behind great storytelling, whether they're from a novel, a screenplay, a cult classic or the latest blockbuster.
Enjoy thought-provoking conversations, about books and films, in a relaxed & welcoming space. Whether you're here to make new friends, rediscover your love of storytelling, or just unwind with great coffee and conversation, this group will become your new favorite weekly ritual.

How It Works
- Everyone is welcome, whether you're a regular reader or prefer watching the film adaptations.
- Got a film or book suggestion? Great! We'll rotate themes to keep things fresh and inclusive.
- Please try to read the book or watch the film beforehand so we can dive into meaningful discussion. (Spoilers are fair game!)
- Feel free to bring articles, reviews, or share online content you found thought-provoking, as discussion is encouraged!
- We'll aim to cover major cinema blockbusters, as well as indie films and book adaptations.
- We will aim to watch films that are available on major streaming platforms or are new at the cinema - and books that are readily available at the library or to buy in bookstores/online.
- Interested in hosting a meetup? Message the organizers, as we love rotating voices.

See all- Coffee & Cinema: Films You Want Your Best Friends to WatchThe Coffee Press, Henderson, NV
Everyone has those movies...
- The ones you tell all your friends to watch.
- The films for a particular mood - that you rewatch when you’re sick, heartbroken, or just need to feel something particular.
- The movies you secretly (or loudly) believe are a masterpiece.
This Coffee & Cinema meetup is all about sharing YOUR all-time favorite films - the ones that changed your life, shaped your taste, or just make you feel something deep.
Bring a title or two to share with the group, and let’s build a wild list of must-watch movies — across every genre.
The best way to find new things to like is to have others share what they love!From gritty thrillers to feel-good rom-coms, obscure horror to animated classics… everything is fair game.
You don’t have to be a film expert. You don’t need to have seen the latest releases. Just come ready to talk about the movies you love, and maybe leave with a few new recommendations.
We'll meet at 9am inside The Coffee Press (when the Paseo Verde Library opens.)
Meetup attendees will enjoy 20% off all food and drinks during the event!
There is plenty of free parking outside the venue.---------
