Excellent selection of stuff, always

No Kindles or coffee.I wish I had a local bookshop like that here in Pennsylvania. I haven’t looked at spitalfieldslife in a couple of years. Now I realize how much I missed it. Thanks.

It is good to know that there are other survivors like us and we wish them all well.

We had two in Bolton. Now all that remains is a waterstones. Presume the internet may hv been the reason. You cant beat mooching though and discovering books you never knew you wanted!

I cannot tell you how happy I am that such a bookshop exists. And Broadway Market is wonderful – full of life and activity on a human scale. Long may it live!
