Book Stores in Petersfield, Hampshire

“Super great vintage bookshop, lots of great books and interesting ephemera, well worth a visit, even if you don’t specifically need anything. The world needs more shops like this!”

“Came here whilst exploring Petersfield book shops and charity shops and came across this absolutely gem. When you walk through the door the smell of coffee and fresh pastries smack you in the face. They had a great selection of books and even some signed copies by the authors. After browsing we sat ourselves down in some very comfortable armchairs and enjoyed our books with some hot drinks. Will most certainly be returning in the near future!”

“Harting Stores and Post Office is a fantastic spot that I can’t recommend enough! Their sandwiches are always fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with attention to detail—a perfect choice for lunch or a quick snack. What truly stands out, though, is the wonderful team working here. They are so friendly, helpful, and approachable, making every visit a real pleasure.

Another bonus is the convenience—there’s plenty of parking available, so you never have to worry about finding a spot. Whether you’re popping in for a meal or running errands at the post office, you’ll love how easy and enjoyable they make it. A top-notch local business!”

“Very good store but sadly only one member of staff. Wonder how much longer WH Smiths is going to be on the High street and how much theft takes place in there store's. Really felt sorry for the lady behind the counter put in that position.”

“It was just lovely to spend some time in this bookshop.The members of staff were extremely lovely and did not constantly pester people with questions. Everything was organised in a way that made sense and the shop was a good size which was conducive to people browsing without constantly bumping into one another.I only purchased one book and the woman at the till was really nice. I would have bought more, but sometimes I do not always recall the books that I already have. I recommend this place 100%, especially if you like records!!!”
