It is a vast book store. Have all sorts of books for age 4 to 80. Situated at stone throw distance of Kings College. You can visit the store even if you are not a book lover.
Heffers has been trading in the city of Cambridge for over 140 years. Located opposite the world-famous Trinity College, we stock an amazing range of books, board games, sheet music and stationery. Our crime fiction department is second to none, our children's shop is considered by many to be the best in the county and our expansive secondhand department is crammed with gems just waiting to be discovered.
We are also known for our year-round programme of great events, from launch parties to talks by renowned authors to board game nights.
No trip to Cambridge is complete without a visit to the city's favourite bookshop, Heffers - we look forward to welcoming you!
