Now expanded into a mini chain - this is still the best branch, with mouth-watering stuff in the window. They know how to put on an attractive window display - I guess they have to, competing with an alley full of Revue Bars, sex shops and strip joints. Inside often have incredible art books. True to their Soho roots they veer towards esoterica, fringe art, fashion, glamour, music and classy erotica. They have a sister branch across the road. With less of the books in one place this has lessened its thunder. Bright, clean and nicely arranged. Table fulls of coffee table and reference books. This is a great port of call for any visiting bookhounds.
