Oxfam Bookshop

Good books

Nice little second hand bookshop. They have multiple sections, ranging from religion to language to food, hobby, and crafts to politics and philosophy. The store has two floors (a downstairs) and the books are heavily discounted. Selection changes frequently as they always get more book donations. Friendly staff members. Cards and cash accepted here. Highly recommended!.

A hidden gem. Go to the basement for books on linguistics or in different languages.

Ok for some books but children’s books are usually inaccessible behind boxes. St Clement’s is nearby and much better.

It’s very easy to miss this gem among the other shops on Turl Street but make sure to pay the shop a visit if you are on a book hunt! It’s beautifully kept and organised, and though the fiction book choice was a bit limited at the time, it had some real bargains, like most of the Harry Potter books for 2-3 pounds. They also had an impressive range of textbooks on History Art and Literature and some of the most adorable birthday cards I have ever seen (on the right to the entrance). The shop itself is beautiful on the inside and staff is really nice - you’ll be able to find great books and cards and do some good in the process (they accept cash and card)

Loads of gems

Good quality bookshop with books on virtually every topic. Interesting selection downstairs too.
