Exclusive Books Cafe - Kensington

Phenomenal Service with staff who know most books, where they are in the store, and or when they're coming in (all without looking on the pc). Over and above they'll suggest similar reads or provide suggestions that have proved to be true gems ! The store is well set out and welcoming, quite a collection point at times. Enjoy just browsing or find pretty much any book you're looking for.

It's always good to pop in and browse this store. If you're lucky, you'll get a good deal. If they don't have what you're looking for, they source it, and it won't cost you an arm and a leg.

Staff very knowledgable and wide selection of books at very reasonable prices.

Lovely staff. Called ahead looking for a book, they checked and let me know they had it. We may not have been greeted on entry but they were very attentive when we asked for help. Also, not treated like thieves and followed throughout the store thanks for that. They will walk you to the genre you are interested in (not just point in a general direction and continue chatting to one another) and even have recommendations. Even remembered me from the last time I was there and the lovely long chat we had. Definitely turned around the last experience of the other staff member not helping me as she thought I was the nanny of a woman with seventyleven children I did not arrive with. Much much better experience. They have a lovely selection of local authors so it's nice to see them show cased and that my suggestions did not fall on deaf ears. Would definitely recommend this store if you're looking to buy a book or two while in Canal Walk. They now close at 8.

Awesome book shop. Great staff and you will definitely find exclusive books for your collection.
