Waterstones

The terrace is not open but still feels nice. The hot drinks are a bit dear but mini cream tea (scones , clotted cream and jam plus tea or coffee ) for £5 is a good bargain.

Living in a non-English speaking country , I never leave Waterstones without buying a book or two - and adding four or five to my read list! Huge space , great selection, cozy spots to read.

The sheer size of it is something to behold. Book shopping is a great experience here, but check out other bookshops in the area and in Charing Cross Road .

One of the biggest/best bookshops in London. My favourite Waterstones to visit as there are floors upon floors of book selections! The staff are very friendly and helpful here!

I can spend days and days here. Calm and perfect to find, read and buy your favorite books with friendly and helpful staff .
