To be honest, I was disappointed. I had come here expecting a huge range of manga. It even had Manga" emblazoned over one of the shop windows.It does have manga

The shop is very neatly laid out, upstairs is books, light novels and manga. While downstairs there are boardgames, art books, tabletop books and miscellaneous other items. The store doesn't seem to be very wheelchair accessible, but the staff are really friendly and helpful!

The shop was clean and modern. A large array of books. A great manga section and a board game section. Really nice print designs too. Unfortunately I didn’t buy anything because it was so expensive, much more than I thought it would be and I don’t think it’s worth it. The prints are of artwork you can find easily online. It was also extremely busy so I could hardly look at anything or squeeze past people.

Fantastic book shop brilliant range of fiction and manga and graphic novels, I was absolutely spoiled for choice and struggled to not spend a lot more money than I ended up doingThe staff member working was incredibly friendly which was very welcome as I had been having a poor experience of Oxford up until that point!I look forward to visiting again if I ever come back to Oxford!

Huuuge book shop in the center of Oxford. Easily can spend the whole day in there, getting lost between bookshelves. Definitely worth a visit for all the book lovers!

Best place for manga, art books and sci-fi in Oxford for sure. The layout is lovely and the staff are always friendly and approachable. Buying books here feels like an experience just like in the main" shop across the road."

Visiting from the US and this store peaked my curiosity as I was walking down the street! It was well organized, clean, and had my kind of books. I love manga and nowadays fantasy, so there was so much to choose from.I am not sure about the other reviews saying that prices were too high; trust me they were very fair! It is much more expensive to get such books and prints in the US!The staff was also very friendly! Pokemon cards are also sold here. There was one kid trying to pick a pack and the saleman was very patient. :)Bought a book to read on my trip and it kept me good company. Will definitely be back when I come back to Oxford!

If you're a fan of manga, graphic novels, poster art, and sci-fi / fantasy books you won't leave empty handed. Friendly staff and it's easy to spend hours just browsing their collection.

I had initially been stumbling around the other Blackwell’s bookshop looking for the fantasy and sci-fi section only to find out that it had been moved to this store. While at first this seemed odd, in the end I think my experience was greatly improved. The staff are passionate about this genre and can provide you with a number of excellent recommendations tailored to whatever you’re looking for! I don’t think I would have been able to receive the same level of service in a more general bookshop.

A well stocked with plenty of variety, Blackwell’s covers all of geekdom so whatever your flavour it’s worth checking it out. As with all bookstores they may or may not have what you’re looking for but it’s always a pleasure to browse and the temptation to splurge the cash is high. I just came away with a couple of Judge Dredd books missing from my collection. Happy days. Well worth your time.
