Brilliant esoteric bookshop with great advice and service.
Best value second hand bookshop in Bristol. Always interesting stock and good prices, owner is really nice too.
One of the best bookshops I've visited. Interesting books, well priced and extremely helpful staff. Worth a look, always.
I ordered a specific, difficult to find, volume of the Victoria History of Wiltshire on Thursday from Dreadnought books through their Abe Books listing. It was a very fair price and it arrived speedily the following Monday, it was well packed and the condition exactly as described. I will definitely “bookmark” Dreadnought books! Thank you.
Simply wonderful experience. Such a calm atmosphere in which to browse away an hour. I could have stayed all day. Lovely welcoming sofa to sample a page or two of a potential purchase. Excellent selection of stuff which has clearly been thoughtfully hand picked for the shelves. Shops like this need to be supported. Picked up a brochure on the Bristol Bookshop walk in May and shall spread the word in my school!
