great advice and friendly service from a local/independent company.(Only if you're buying books as they're an utter rip-off for vinyl purchases. Seriously don't buy vinyl from here as you'll find it cheaper ANYWHERE ELSE)

If, like me, you find a traditional book shop an irresistible prospect, you will love visiting Tavistock. The historic town?s independent bookstore, The Book Stop, is one of the country?s very best.For one thing it?s cosseted within an ancient building, all poky spaces and crooked angles, which somehow adds to its appeal. Perhaps it?s the sight of all those books lining the walls of such an old place that helps create the right atmosphere for an hour or two?s browsing.Venture inside and leave the modern world?s cares and philistinism behind, for this is a place of quiet and culture. One spread over three or four floors (I forget) so there?s bound to be something here that suits your tastes.Whether it?s the next bestseller, a children?s first read, a hitherto undiscovered local author or something worthy from the non-fiction shelves, you will find what you want here.

Service with a lukewarm welcome from a young girl at the counter must be my face,, what is it with this part of the world. Tory town i guess.I might be too common for Tavistock. Even a carrier bag was a bit of an issue.Ah, well. I think both people in the shop viewed me with suspicion, that's called prejudice where I come from honey, I have money to spend. The shop itself is really well stocked book wise, but where I was hunting at the top flight of stairs for records. (lovely little older world building) Heads up its just repressed on teh top floor, current artists amd the odd but of older RSD represses that can be bought as originals for a fraction of the price, I can never work that out.

Attended record shop day 2023. I understand its only a small shop, a shame there wasn't more of the releases available, no hip-hop artist and I know there was at least 4 different artist release stuff for this day.... Never mind I got THE PRODIGY's release which was the one I most wanted.....

Book stop have an enviably comprehensive stock of books. You will be served by cheerful, knowledgable staff who are most helpful. If they do not have what you want, they will do their utmost to get it for you, and let you know when it arrives for you to collect. If you need a book, this is where to get it!
