Then & Now Bookshop
Known For
Exposed brick shelving that makes every title look like art
Then & Now Bookshop makes its exposed brick and vintage interior feel less like decor and more like the natural habitat of a well-read person. Wandering through the charming storefront entrance is half the experience.
🕐Best time to visit: October afternoons when the light turns golden through the windows
Our Take
Exposed brick walls and a genuinely quiet, unhurried atmosphere make Then & Now the kind of bookshop that earns its reputation through feeling rather than footprint. The modest review count keeps it from ranking higher, but the discovery factor here is real.
