Waterstones York

Journey to the back of the shop and you'll discover a fun and buggy-friendly kids’ section complete with knowledgeable booksellers on-hand to help out, recommend books, and provide activities for little ones. There's even a slide for added excitement!  

Up the curved staircase (or in the lift if stairs aren't your thing) we have our Café W, from which you can watch the world go by. It is the place for coffee and tea, cakes and savouries. Sit back, relax, read and enjoy the locally made tasty treats. 

That's not all - we don't just sell you the books, we have many an opportunity for you to get involved too. Evening author talks, afternoon signings with big names (we're talking both celebrities and literati here!), kids’ activities and Story Time, and Book Clubs all occur frequently.
