Wow this is a very modern and cool space for selling books and it's right by the River Thames. Another must visit if you are into books.

Younger brother of Tottenham Foyles. They have a good collection of books. Mainly humanities, literature etc. i guess. Worth a visit. Near Thames. Good place to hang out.

The Foyles branch in Southbank is not the biggest bookstore in London, but for reasons unknown this is where I have the most fun strolling through books. It probably has to do with the way the books are displayed. The children's section is also nice. In terms of Covid-19 measures there is hand sanitiser at the entrance, but you don't have to wear plastic gloves, as I had seen in other bookstores.

OK store. Especially nice to have one (in general, as they're a dying breed but also) at Southbank in conjunction with the second-hand book stalls outside. But it is a limited store, missing a category or two. Still, they've managed to have a good and interesting selection of books, as well as some random items up for grabs.
Pop in. Why not

Lovely little bookshop by the Thames/Southbank Centre. I always find interesting books in store and love the physical books in a digital world!

Nicely organised. Prices were not bad compared to Amazon for the game I bought. Reasonable covid measures. Nice place to saunter round.

The location of Foyles Bookshop is great, right on the riverside. Very good range of books, including bestsellers. Can't wait when the shop is open again.

Starting to worry about the number of tourists and increasing stocks 9f non English language titles..in danger of losing the character we were promised would be maintained when the store moved. Coffee shop no longer the go to place in central London...too many Apple Mac's and lingering students...and miss the soundtrack music...

Lovely selection of books on a huge range of topics. The staff are helpful and share anecdotes about their experience of your purchases whilst you’re at the till, which is a nice touch. It’s not cheap but the books are beautiful and worth the investment.

Paradise for readers and researchers. Attendants are genuinely interested in books. The only trouble is that customers may easily fall into temptation and buy more books than originally planned. Most welcome temptation, in fact.

Having books on antiracism front and center made the store a welcome haven yesterday.
Prices are to be expected and staff are friendly. Only problem is trying to find your wanted section amongst the thousands of books that are there!

Used to be a great bookshop. It’s a pity about the two Italians who make fun of the customers. Time for staff training?

Foyles is always a good chain to visit. This shop is fairly large and has a good range of books. Their recommendations are always thoughtful and interesting and the categories are broad. Staff are friendly and seem to enjoy the ethos behind Foyles. Don't forget that there are often bookstalls on the Southbank, so between the two you can get a good selection!

Foyles puts the bookshop in bookshop! It's a treat to spend time there. Would love there to be more Foyles around UK. But the range of stock and the staff are hard to improve. Great place.

Compared with the big foyles at Tottenham court road, the selection of books is tiny and the consultants working there barely listen to you

Obviously a smaller selection than their main store, but still worth a look around. Great place to browse while waiting for a friend or to escape the London rain, or to wander in after a long day of exploring the city.
