Book Stores in Swansea, Wales

“I love this branch. Staff have always been more than happy to help, be it gain suggestions for new series, order a book in or help you find something on the shelf. The little cafe/tea room upstairs is wonderfully serene with many options for coffee and tea loves alike. The location in the heart of the city is great, meaning more than once I've fallen 'victim' to 'just popping in' and leaving with another treasured read.”

“One of my most favourite shops in Swansea. Love this little gem of a book store as it’s got loads of things for sale other than books. A very colourful store with lots going on. Very small for what it is though and there’s not much room when there are customers with buggies in there. Staff are helpful and friendly. Can be a bit messy on times but that’s because it’s such a popular store.”

“It had been a long time since I was last in this particular store, but I wasn't disappointed at all by the layout, or by what I needed, as I not only easily found what I'd been looking for (artist's materials, including fine point pens) but I was also more than pleased to discover several items I'd not realised they stocked (coloured inks, and nibs for same, plus coloured fine point pens)!”

“Excellent customer service, friendly staff. I post parcels there regularly. The staff know the kind of service I require and are always very helpful. It's the only post office I am very happy to use. Not a negative thing to say about the post office and shop. Thank you!”

“honestly the best oxfam i've ever stepped foot in. good range of books and music for amazing prices. staff always has a nice chat - i stop by every time i walk past.”

“I have visited WHSmith in Mumbles on many occasions and I have always found the staff to be very helpful and friendly. They cannot do enough for you and they are always extremely polite, even though they are often so very busy. Lovely shop!”

“The bloke working was very helpful and friendly even showed me that I could get a multipack of the item I wanted for the same price as one single item everytime i been there had great service”

“The store is always kept tidy and clean, it smells good too which can often be a turn off for people. The staff, mainly volunteers, are always friendly and helpful! The clothing is of good quality and organised well, easy to find what you are looking for, worth asking if you're after something specific as they have storage upstairs. Trendy, highstreet labels at really reasonable prices!! Jewellery, games, videos and DVDs this place has everything! ”

“What a brilliant little shop, everyone was so friendly, bought some beautiful vintage jewellery, charity shops are information exchanges - a valuable part of the community , as an effective way to give used goods a second life, not just throwing them in the bin , that is wasteful and churlish.”
