BookBar Chelsea - Review - Chelsea - London - The Infatuation

"BookBar is full of the kind of people you wish you’d meet on a dating app, but never do. This Chelsea bookshop and wine bar is a safe space for bibliophiles to leaf through books, sip the wine of the month, and maybe have a casual chat with a stranger they not-so-casually locked eyes with. But equally, companionable silence is very much welcome." - Sinéad Cranna

Gorgeous bookshop. With limited seating, no laptops, great coffee and tea, even cookies and brownies. Got a book I was looking for as was sold out in the big shops, had an amazing coffee, browse through the selection and book club discussion on our latest read. I also saw they host events Love this idea, hope it never closes as it's so lovely!

A charming little gem in Chelsea, BookBar offers more than just books — it's a cozy spot for coffee, drinks, and good reads. The staff are always welcoming and helpful, happy to recommend reads or even source any in-print book you’re looking for. It's the kind of place where you can linger with a book and a cappuccino or stop in for a thoughtful gift. A lovely mix of bookstore and social space with real character.

My mum and I visited BookBar yesterday and had a fabulous time! The space is beautiful and relaxing, the staff all so kind and generous with their recommendations, and the drinks and cocktails a plus! Highly recommend.

Ambiance ambiance ambiance. Read books while you sip your fav coffee. The quality of coffee is not top notch. But frankly who cares. You're reading a beautiful book and people around you browse for books. And the couch is comfy. I like it.

It's already my favourite bar in London. Grab a wine to go with your book, sit back and relax. Perfection. Congrats Chrissy on your newest and biggest bar!!

I came here for the first time for an event and immediately fell in love with the BookBar. Such a sanctuary, and it's clear every detail of this shop has had a lot of thought and love poured into it! I'll happily travel across London to come here in future. It's the perfect place to find the perfect book(s) and recharge. Plus, the customer service is just fantastic! Thanks Polly and team!

I love absolutely everything about this place and it’s of my favourite places in London either alone or with friends . It’s a clean cosy warm and welcoming space with lovely staff and a wonderful book selection with great events too. I highly recommend for all book lovers but even though who just want a drink.
