Broadway Books is a beautiful independent bookstore. Last of a dying breed in these days of big online bookstores. The owners and booksellers really know their stock and are great for recommending something that the person you are buying for, or you yourself, might like. They also have an impressive collection of books about local history, and British curiosities. They are displayed in such a way that you always come out with armfuls of not necessarily the latest writers, but things that you wonder why you didn't read that particular writer before. There is a great children's section too, and beautiful gift cards, posters and wrapping paper too. Basically a paradise for anyone who loves little bookshops which are brilliantly stocked.
