This is the kind of bookshop I dream about: a well-curated array of literature and nonfiction run by the most genuine, warm people. Take the time to riffle through the used section for great deals.
Love the selection of old and new books from the spectrum of queer writers. Classics and indie authors abound, and grab a flat from the cafe next door while you peruse your new purchase
Look out for Mark Ashton's plaque above the shop, and see the movie 'Pride' about his short but eventful life, and the legacy he left.
Every time I visit London I have to come to this place and buy at least two books . They have a wonderful selection. 😍💖
I absolutely love this place. Online sellers can't hold a candle to an independent, curated bookshop with experienced staff and a long history of serving the queer community.
I never go to London without going there and leaving with a big bag of nice books . Great place to find all about LGBT books and movies ...
Awesome place for LGBT Community
