This is a “proper” bookshop with something for everyone - you can even have a coffee and cake as there’s a good sized cafe on the first floor.
When I visited today (Sunday after lunch) the entire shop was buzzing with people of all ages.
There are lots of display areas around the shop and there’s always something new to catch your eye.
I had a coffee and flapjack in the cafe and noticed that there were also a number of people working on laptops, absorbed in what they were doing.
If you are looking to do your Christmas gift buying on the High Street this year, Waterstones in York would be the perfect place to go as there really is something for everyone.
Plenty of fiction and non fiction to browse and buy. Nicely organised, with friendly and helpful staff. A fair range of other goods are available too. Always a pleasure to visit York Waterstones.
Lovely shop, pity they hadn't got the book I wanted. Stating it was on order, and I could pre book for collection. I don't live locally so I will try another store next week.
Loved the children's section. Very extensive. I was also impressed with the help I got from the staff. Very knowledgeable regarding their stock. I picked out my books. Thank you waterstones
The bookshop is a complete joy. Not only is there a huge selection but the excellent staff really know their onions. I've become a fan of Japanese authors lately and wondered if they could offer me any advice. 20 minutes later, I walked into their upstairs coffee shop holding 3 highly recommended books by authors I hadn't heard of but whose writing was described to me so knowledgeably, I couldn't refuse.
And now to said coffee shop. The staff, the coffee and what I saw of the food offerings are first class. Most enjoyable. Lovely coffee. But the seating cushions are deeply dirty, somewhat sticky in places and frankly deserve to be thrown away. I mentioned it to a member of the staff who agreed to discuss it with the manager....but quietly agreed with my disappointment.
Overall, a really super place to visit.... and the small problem is easily sorted
Lovely shop. A lovely member of staff went out of her way to find a book I wanted. It wasn't on the shelf but she went and got it from wherever it was in the back of the store. I really appreciated that.
One of my favourite shops in York. The staff are so friendly and helpful, and apart from endless book browsing, you can enjoy a lovely hot drink in the café upstairs.
Lovely bookshop lovely coffee shop. Great selection of childrens books
Beautifully organised bookshop, every category has its own space, exactly how it should be. The ambience is very relaxing, warm and quiet. Children's section is full of toys and fun things to entertain the little ones when adults want to have some "ALONE TIME". Adorable cafe available on the first floor with affordable prices and nice view on the main street!
A large and well stocked bookshop in the centre of York across 2 floors. A cafe is situated on the 2nd floor.
