Primrose Hill Books

Adorable little book shop. Lovely staff. Great selection of books

This was the first bookshop I visited while in London, and I left a piece of heart there! It's cozy, quaint, and colorful. There are piles of books everywhere, and while that makes it challenging to find any particular book you're looking for without asking for assistance, it also makes looking for it so much fun! Chances are, you'll end up discovering more great books in the process (I did).

There are also discounted books in boxes outside, a children's section and original greeting cards inside.

♿ The place is rather small, so it may be tricky to navigate with a wheelchair.

Definitely recommend! 💜

What a neighbourhood book store should be. Warm, helpful team, easy to find something to read or they’ll order it for you. Better than a chain or Amazon.

This adorable little neighbourhood bookshop in the heart of Primrose Hill is a must-visit if you're in the area. Despite its size, the collection was excellent and I found multiple titles that were on my to-read list.

Lovely traditional, old-fashioned bookshop with tons to browse through. Not the most friendly staff though. Perhaps I just went on the wrong day. I will go back though.

I love this place, I have been multiple times and I can spend 1 hour each visit, easily. There's a coherent chaos inside and every inch is covered by a book. It seems to be only 1 copy per book, so every time I come I feel on a treasure hunt to find some obscure volume most people haven't seen. The feeling of being surrounded by soooo many books in this small magical place is great.

This is a lovely local bookshop, with a great range of titles. I am very grateful to them for delivering a book I had ordered to my door while self-isolating, which will save me from days of boredom! The delivery was free of charge and it was dropped off within 24 hours after I emailed to request it. Huge thanks to Primrose Hill Books.

The bookstore didn't meet my expectations hence the three stars. Place seemed slightly cramped and all the books were new instead of used, which I would've personally preferred. Overall the bookstore looks quite picturesque and pretty, but it also comes with some impracticalities.
