Situated on the historic Bridlesmith Gate, Waterstones Nottingham is the finest bookshop in the Midlands.

We have significantly expanded our games offer and are one of Waterstones’ Games Flagships, with shelves packed with all types of board games and card games, from family and party games to strategy games and logic and deduction puzzles. Our passionate games enthusiasts will help you to find your next favourite game. 

Our beautiful Victorian building hosts four floors of literary wonder, including a range of contemporary Fiction amongst the largest to be found anywhere in the country, a Children's section as bright and wide as the sky, that is always bustling with fun activities and things to do, and Café W on the third floor where you can browse and relax in a peaceful atmosphere.
