Queens Park Books

We love this independent book shop. Our favourite little local pop in, always wonderful books on display, an inspiring place to shop and be.

Excellent shop! I love going there to get books for my niece . Or get cards or Xmas baubles even! Very nice ambience inside. Customer service is always friendly.

Lovely place to browse. Staff is helpful if needed, but not pushy if not. The selection of beautiful children books is fantastic, but also the adult section is great. You'll find books about the local neighbourhood, but also classics or the newest bestsellers, as well as gifts, wrapping papers and the most wonderful postcards.

A beautiful neighbourhood bookshop which is packed with a range new releases and more obscure titles. I saw lots of books that I have struggled to find elsewhere.

Brilliant selection of books! Clearly laid out, well mannered, well read customers, helpful and knowledgeable,but not obtrusive, staff, a pleasure to visit this bookshop! Just a few minutes walk from Queens Park station. I give it a well merited five stars!

Several books fell off shelf whilst I was reaching for one. Hit me hard on the nose and face resulting in a cut nose , massive nose bleed , facial pain and a banging headache. Was given a seat and some tissues and eventually some ice. Thankfully my husband was present to go and collect my grandson from school. When I was in eventually ready to leave - I was told to ‘ have a good day’. Hard to do that with a banging headache. This shop clearly has no knowledge of health and safety or customer service. No apology , just ‘what can I do?’ . Was going to purchase a book ( I like to support local bookshops) but will never w do so online. Will not be returning.

Really nice bookshop just as when I was a kid. Great kids section with plenty of options. Staff is knowledgeable and helpful, nothing is ever too much. Strongly recommend it.

Wonderful bookshop. Beautifully curated selections of fiction and nonfiction. Highly engaging and knowledgeable staff always happy to help, including ordering books in if you want. Brilliant kid's section. Support it if you can, I really hope it sticks around for many years.

Petit bookshop with neatly stacked books. Easy to navigate round. They have a great little childrens area too. Obviously not a huge selection, but the latest And popular books are for sale. Queen's Park books was nice to come to after a Sunday shopping at the farmer market and then having lunch at Hugo's.

It's a cute little bookshop in a posh part of town with a lovely selection and nice decor. But why meh? well... I was looking for a new book to read. I had a few different options in mind. I asked the women behind the counter if they had them in. They looked them up, said no, offered to order them for me, but that's it. I mean, yes they were nice and offered to special order as well, but to really make this place that little bit special I would have liked them to at least try and see if I would be interested in similar suggestions. Try to understand what sort of book I was looking for and see if there was anything similar in the store. But nope, they looked them up, politely said no and went about their conversation again. I guess they get enough business from the locals to not need to spend that extra time on people. It's a shame.

Great little book shop hidden away in Queens Park. For a small shop it has a great range of books and incredibly knowledgable and friendly staff. It most certainly caters for the eclectic funky mix of people in the area. If you want a break from the large and often impersonal chainstores then its a nice place for a browse. With Starbucks next door, Baker and Spice a few doors away, the Salisbury pub across the road and only a two minute walk to the fabulous Queens Park - you're never far from a watering hole or place to chill out with your new purchase. Enjoy!
