In light of the continuing coronavirus epidemic, all events and late shopping evenings due to take place in March and April have unfortunately been postponed indefinitely. Please see our blog for more details.
Out of a mixture of gratitude and admiration, we turn our shop, twice a week or so, into a miniature auditorium in which authors talk about and read from their work, meet their readers, and engage in lively debate about the burning topics of the day. Find out here who’s scheduled to appear.
The London Review Bookshop is also available for hire; email or call (020) 7269 9030 for more information.
We have wheelchair access to the ground floor. If you have any queries regarding disability access at external venues please give us a call.
