Foyles

It's always... always a pleasure walking into Foyles Charing Cross. I've been going to this HQ branch on and off since 2003 - long before its refurbishment.🪄 These days, I visit straight off the bus to quickly browse or pop in specially to collect my book order. Staff are consistent in their customer service - zen, helpful, & knowledgeable ✨️ Upstairs on the 5th floor is a spacious and bustling café where customers flock to for conversations, coffee & cake, or 'working from anywhere'!☕️🍰🥐💻 Even the lift experience feels like an extension of the Foyles brand - efficient, clean & spacious. Hopefully, these photos from my recent visit give you a sense of my description above. 😊 Enjoy your experience! 📚

This by far, is one of my all-time favourite bookstores. Spanning multiple levels, it’s very easy to navigate from one category to the next. Really wish we had a store like this back home! It’s truly a bonus that the range of tabletop games available are extensive. If not for my limited luggage space, I would definitely have added more items to my basket. Definitely added to my must visit list every single time I’m in London!!

Foyles on Charing Cross Road is a book lover’s paradise, offering an incredible selection for both children and adults. From timeless classics to the latest releases, there’s something for everyone. Their festive Christmas-themed books, including ones about Santa, add an extra touch of magic during the holiday season. It’s the perfect place to browse, find gifts, or simply enjoy the cozy atmosphere surrounded by books and holiday cheer.

Probably one of the best bookstores out there in London. They have huge selection of book themes, from babies to psychology books. They have nice wifi and seatings if you need to just rewind. On the top floor there’s a cafe and toilet if you need to take a lunch break! Overall I loved it and my niece and nephew love it as well!

This place is great for book lovers. You can spend hours walking around the store and they have a huge offer. I'd highlight the music section, which is not that common on bookstores anymore.

Great and huge library on 5 levels!! This place has (almost) everything. It’s well organized and clean.

Definitely the biggest book store I’ve ever been in! You will definitely find what you are looking for in here! Large cafe on the top floor and good selection of games on the lowest floor and more books than you have ever seen before on the floors between! Well kept and friendly staff makes it an enjoyable experience!

Stunning bookshop with everything you could ever learn. Attended the ESEA PN Lit Fest. Toilets and a cafe with a range of options. Lifts although a little inaccessible when very busy. Great gift options too!
