On water and on land: London's most beautiful bookstores. Whether small, royal, old or unusual, London has a bookstore to suit every taste.
The world's first purpose-built bookstore, Foyles covers every theme imaginable and also offers gifts, stationery, music and magazines. The London Review of Books is a literary magazine, but also runs a cozy bookshop with a focus on classic fiction and new works as well as new works on barge. If you like a personal hunt and expedition, Hurlingham is the right place for you.
