Situated right by the canal in Broadway Market, The Broadway Bookshop is worth a visit once you’ve had your fill of artisan coffee and baked delights. Small but beautifully formed, the friendly independent bookshop specialises in literary fiction and stocks a range of poetry, philosophy, politics, travel, fashion and art books, amongst many others. What’s more, the bookshop is also a permanent exhibition space, featuring the works of local artists. They also frequently hold literary events, such as book launches and talks with authors.
