Waterstones Bury St Edmunds - Butter Market

Our beautiful book shop trades over two floors in the heart of Bury St Edmunds' medieval grid.

A grade two listed building, the site was more recently the Suffolk Hotel but records show that there has been an Inn on this site since 1539. It's likely that the medieval pillars at the front of the store could tell a tale or two.

Our Booksellers are passionate about books, have vast and varied knowledge and we pride ourselves on giving the best customer service in town. We have a bright and vibrant children's section, and an excellent selection of board games, gifts and stationery. Our fiction section is huge, and we have a wealth of history titles, covering Ancient classics to modern day.

The First Floor leads you to our bustling Café, Travel, Photography, Art, Biography, Sport, Science, as well as many other books in nooks.

We are also very dog friendly so look forward to welcoming you all!
