About

Fiction, non-fiction and collectors' editions in a quirky, long-established secondhand bookshop.

What customers say

So many books! Ended up getting a little poetry book and a bag Being here felt like being in a fairytale bookshop, adored it! Definitely take a look downstairs too, the signs make it seem like there's only music books, but there's much more

An absolute joy of a bookshop with paperbacks and hardbacks front to back and ceiling to floor. There are antique books, classic books, modern books and modern classics ranging in price from highly affordable to prices you'd expect from masterpieces. If you love books this shop is a serious must. Be prepared to spend a very long time checking out the categories and titles. It's a joy.

The old book collection is pretty complete, and the books are still in great shape. The prices are fair, too. The guy who runs the shop (or maybe owns it) is super friendly. Oh, and there’s a 10% discount for students—he said it’s so they can chill out from school, homework, or exams. Really nice of him!
