“Quite possibly the best bookshop in Barnes.”
Next day pick up
We can order almost any book in print and have it in the shop ready for pick up by the next day – provided you let us know by 4pm. Just call or email us!
Books may also be ordered via the bookshop.org website where you can select the Barnes Bookshop as your preferred retailer from the “Choose a Bookshop” menu at the top of the page.
Recommendations
Whether you are looking for a present or inspiration for your next bedside tome we can help. Just pop into the shop, or send us an email explaining who the book is for and what their interests are and we’ll give you some ideas to choose from.
Our Loyalty Card
Our loyalty card offers you a £10 off your next purchase when you purchase ten books worth £10 or more.
Seasonal booklists
A few times a year we produce a seasonal booklist covering what we consider to be the most exciting of the new releases over many genres.
Previous lists can be viewed and downloaded here. To receive future lists, please enter your email address into the form at the foot of this page.
Would you like a one stop shop for choosing and wrapping all your Christmas presents? Everyone loves a book, and we will find a suitable one for almost anybody. We also sell lots of toys.
