Waterstones, the leading high street bookseller, is to relocate its bookshop on Northbrook Street in May, to stunning new premises just a couple of minutes walk away at Parkway.
Waterstones Northbrook Street will cease to trade on 8th May, with all booksellers transferring to the new bookshop at Parkway, which will open to the public on Saturday 6th June. Waterstones Parkway bookshop will trade over 2800 sq ft over one floor and will feature a beautiful new light oak bookcase and slat wall design, and a scrumptious new Waterstones Café with indoor and outdoor seating for 32.
Alongside triple certified coffee from Matthew Algie - approved by the Fairtrade Foundation, Rainforest Alliance and Organic Food Federation – the café will offer a unique and delicious range of handmade cakes and pastries sourced from local artisan bakers and specialist producers who champion natural ingredients. Locally sourced delicacies will include pastries and sandwiches sourced daily from Newbury’s Hethertons Bakery and mouthwatering cakes from Kintbury’s Cakes by Cocochoux.
Whilst brimming with many wonderful books as you would expect, the bookshop will also be home to a specially selected range of stunning stationery and gifts. And with free wi-fi and a well-stocked children’s department that the kids will love, Waterstones at Parkway will be a great place for the whole family to enjoy.
Waterstones Bookshop Manager Annie Gibb-Cohen says:
“We’re thrilled to be opening a brand new bookshop in Newbury. With its gorgeous new design, and delicious café, our bookshop will be a real pleasure to browse, to enjoy with the family and to visit with friends and catch up over a coffee. We are really looking forward to sharing our stunning shop with our customers.”
Waterstones will launch the new bookshop at Parkway with a special family fun day on Saturday 6th June.
