Thriving branch. Really busy. Only just squeaked into a seat in the cafe. Friendly place with a panoramic outlook into the centre.

Really excellent staff, stock and atmosphere. A chain bookshop with the feel of an independent. Excellent displays, layout and stock. Bookshop staff are dedicated and knowledgable, and there are a lot of very long-standing staff members there, which says a lot about the manager and - I assume - the Waterstones general ethos. It still grates to leave out the apostrophe, but as gripes go, that's not bad, is it :)

I just want to say thank you to the staff who are absolutely amazing. The cafe staff are lovely and some even recommended some books to me so thank you! And the shop staff are equally brilliant. Stephen (I think) managed to help me find the perfect horror book to match my very specific tastes the other week and today when I went in searching for even more fantastic recommendations the two staff members who helped me spent so much time helping me to find the perfect books and seemed genuinely happy to help and share their love of books! Thank you!

Review based on the cafe. Friendly staff, and a small selection of cakes and toasties. However the the cake and toasties I had was very nice and far exceeded my expectations.
