The most genius ‘wanted’ sign drew me in and I’m glad it did. Wonderful bookshop. Lovely people running it. Love books? You have to check it out.

Oxfam Bookshop….shelves stacked with escape routes. Something for everyone and always a fair price. The joy of it is simple: you never know what you’ll find, but you always leave with more than you came for. We all love books they pull you into different minds, different worlds, strangers who suddenly feel like old friends. Step inside and you’re travelling without moving. A proper haven for readers.

We are great supporters of Oxfam - but very disappointed with the service just received at 4pm today from the young male who served us on the till. No greeting, no goodbye and no apology when he forgot to pack one of the books I had just paid for. Someone at the shop needs to train him in polite customer service, and tell him not to discriminate against customers as he was specifically polite to white customers at the same time.

Quite disappointed that the bookshop has chosen to put J K Rowling’s new book front and centre of the shop window display
