I adore coming here. There's several floors and a cafe at the top. I wish there were more seats around the book store.nnIt's usually bustling and yet I find it a calming oasis to escape to when I need a break from the city.nnComing here reminds me of the days when there were Borders book shops. Idk why I get those vibes.nnI always discover books that remind me how wondrous and magical the literature world is, rich with knowledge and a feast for the mind.
A true paradise for book lovers, Foyles on Charing Cross Road feels like stepping into a world built entirely from words and imagination. Spread across several bright, airy floors, it offers an incredible range — from classics and poetry to rare finds and beautiful stationery.nThe vibe is peaceful but inspiring; you can easily lose track of time exploring its endless shelves. The in-house café adds a perfect touch, inviting you to sit with a coffee and your new reads.nFoyles isn’t just a bookstore — it’s a London institution, and every visit feels a little like coming home.
I wish it was possible to sleep, eat and spend time in a bookstore for a few days because that's how I felt about Foyles. Once you enter, it's so hard to leave and the selection is astoundingly huge, spread over multiple floors. Not to forget, the architecture is so modern and unique, which is hard to find in the UK where plenty of bookstores go for a more neoclassical or vintage look. I especially found the floor on literatures in other languages amazing and very inclusive as it covered not just eurocentric writers and works but so many Korean, Sanskrit, Bangla, Japanese works too. The history floor is amazing too and the wide variety of culinary books is just topnotch. I'd like to come back to spend one full day her, not just a few hours.
The magic of London is that it has streets filled with books, museums and bookstores! That is why it is one of my favourite cities.nFoyles- originally Waterstones is also my favourite bookstore in London. I’ve never not found the books I was looking for.nIt has books from all genre, years and editions which is enthralling.nI can spend an entire day here and yet will have the desire to visit again.nThe staff will help you find any book that you cannot find. Also one other thing that I find very cool in this bookstore is that they have handwritten few plots of the book so if you are new to reading or are a voracious reader this place will be a paradise.
A true haven for book lovers, Foyles on Charing Cross Road is a sprawling, multi-level treasure trove with over 200,000 titles across every genre imaginable. The space is beautifully designed, with winding staircases, skylit atriums, and cozy corners that invite you to linger.nnUpstairs on Level 5, the Café at Foyles offers a relaxed, light-filled spot to recharge. With seasonal dishes, fresh bakes, and great coffee, it’s perfect for a quiet read or a catch-up with friends. The scones are a customer favourite and are divine! Just note, it can get busy, and seating fills up fast, especially with laptop campers!
