Enjoy a novel with a craft brew at Phlox Books

Located in the up-and-coming borough of Leyton, Phlox Books is an independent bookshop specialising in books, booze and coffee. Serving delicious espressos and flat whites from Dalston-based roasters Allpress alongside their thoughtfully curated selection of titles old and new, Phlox Books is a truly authentic East London experience. Open until 8pm on weekdays (except Wednesdays) and until 10pm at the weekends, Phlox has a distinctly social atmosphere, and you can even enjoy a local craft beer or tall glass of wine.
