Hungerford Bookshop

Situated in a listed building on the High Street the award-winning bookshop is owned by Alex and Emma Milne-White who, along with Tessa, Mary and Nilesh, have a passion for books and pride themselves on delivering excellent customer service.

A wide range of titles are available from exciting new reads to timeless classics. Tantalize your tastebuds in the Cookery section, relive the past in History or find something amazing for hungry young minds in the Children’s area.

Stuck for ideas? Then feel free to ask for recommendations and advice, or sign-up for to our mailing list to be kept up to date with our regular author events and news.

Take advantage of our fast ordering service (most books will arrive THE NEXT DAY!) and our generous loyalty card scheme.

Looking for second-hand and antiquarian books? Then try our basement downstairs. We have over 4000 titles down there, with particularly good sections on History and Transport. If you can’t find what you want, then we recommend Bertram Rota who specialise in Modern First Editions, books on Architecture and the Applied Arts, and Private Press Printing and Livres d’artiste. Visit their website,  or visit them in Covent Garden.

We also stock Book Tokens, our own gift vouchers, cards, gift wrap, DVDs, Penguin merchandise, notebooks and calendars.

We can source out-of-print books, and can provide maps for planning permission. We are also the place to purchase tickets for The Hungerford Film Club.

We hope you will visit us soon!
