Good News looks like every other newsagent from the outside but step inside this tiny little shop…read moreand you'll see that the choice of magazines is what keeps this little store a step ahead of the rest. Because Good News is situated in the heart of Soho, where all of London's hippest fashion houses, production companies and media firms are generally based, it needs to offer it's clients something different. Sure, you can get the usual paper, a juice and a bag of crisps but I've never seen so many magazines. If your looking for fashion, music, business or art, they have every single commercial, weird and underground paper and magazine you can imagine and even stock some industry mags as well like Music Week for example. Although I don't work in Soho anymore, if I pass this shop, I always stop by and pick up a magazine I know I can't get anywhere else...
There's countless newsagents in Soho, but I love Good News. The fact that they always stock and…read moresell my favourite magazine Monocle almost a week before it's supposed to hit newsstands makes all the difference to me.

Capital newsagents are well set up and cover every aspect you'd expect from newsagent. They have an excellent array of daily press and monthly magazines, the fridge is stocked full of drinks, there's a massive amount of sweets, whilst in the back you'll find an impressive amount of stationary, cards and wrapping paper. The added extras are the ability to send money abroad via Western Union and you can do the lottery. Whoo hoo! I am impressed with Capital Newsagents. Rock on guys!

It is a common thing in London to see shops in touristy areas charging exorbitant prices for tiny,…read morepoorly made tchotchkes. A post card for 4 pounds? Seriously? The owners are often overly agressive and generally unnerving to deal with. I personally avoid Oxford Street at all costs for this reason. Amongst the slew of garbage souvenir shops to be found in London, Destefanis is a gem. Relatively unassuming from the outside (where postcards are on sale for 1Pnd, 50P, and 5P (!!!) ), the shop is filled with reasonably priced trinkets, post cards, knicknacks, sweets, newspapers, and magazines. The shopkeepers are sweet people who are friendly and helpful, and very pleasant to interact with. The next time you need a tiny red bus to bring home to a friend at Christmas, Destefanis is your best bet.
Great coffee, chill bohemian vibe, and surprisingly friendly staff for this part of the world. The…read moreunique juxtaposition of the chill coffeeshop atmosphere with a serious love of music makes this one of the cooler coffee shops you'll find around this area, and the food is nothing to turn your nose up at, either. They have a modest menu of great quality coffees, made to near-perfection, and a menu boasting of both healthy and not-so-healthy bagels and pastries, which are all equally delicious, (yes, the healthy ones, too). They have decadent toffee cheesecakes and big vegan cookies made with oats and coconut, chewy brownies and high-quality chocolates. Pick your poison, they all pair perfectly with their java. Check out their social media pages, as I hear they usually hold special events that you don't want to miss if you're ever in the area. So, take a chill pill and enjoy.

I ordered ice latte with oat milk, which is pretty impressive as I didn't expect much anyway. It's quite "milky" but since it's plant based, it doesn't make my stomach suffer from digesting the drink (like I usually have to). I like the ratio of coffee and milk in my latte, the drink tastes creamy but neither of the flavor is overpowering. Overall it is a chill, warm, and cozy local cafe. It's also a good spot for 2-3 people to sit down and chat on weekend afternoon!

My absolute dream independent bookstore. I visited the area just to pass by this bookstore and it…read morewas everything I could have hoped for. Everything you could want about philosophy, art, photography, erotica. Little zines and cool things. Leave some space in your suitcase if you're visiting, you'll want to bring a few books home. Since it was before Christmas, It was quite packed with people and I loved the vibe. The person at the counter was incredibly helpful and friendly, too. Highly recommend a visit, I hope to attend one of their readings in the future!

Donlon houses books on music, art, philosophy, esoterica, fashion design, and gay and erotica, but their particular speciality is artists' bookworks and photobooks. They also regularly host book launches, readings, screenings and curated window displays. Nothing is better than ducking out of the well-dressed chaos that is Broadway Market on a Saturday, to spend the morning flicking through one of their titles and going home with something special.

This store had a nice artsy sort of selection of the type of books people read who live in the NW postcodes, meaning NW3,NW5, NW6. I think this is not a bad thing at all. W.E Lane Books also had an impressive sale selection. I found the Modern Jewish Girl's Guide to Guilt reduced from 15.99 to 5.99. You look around and see Penguin Titles mugs and 5 pounds of the Mighty Boosh Book (not sure if this is a desirable book to acquire or not, you decide). The staff also shows your their favourites, in a section. A good shop but can the Dylan. Yikes!
Really top-notch bookstore. I used to stop in all the time when I lived around the corner, and was…read morejust back in yesterday. It's not big, but not too tiny, and is independently owned and operated. They carry all the latest fiction and non-fiction, and not just the best-sellers, either. They do special topical displays. Yesterday was a rack of about 10 books about finance and the global economic crisis. They have a large section of Jewish books, catering to the local demographic. Their sale/discount section is one of the best I've seen. It's a couple of shelves near the back, and one right under the cash counter, but they're not the typical cheapo books you see in those sorts of bins. I picked up books like The Lost: A Search for Six of Six Million (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lost-Search-Six-Million/dp/0007251939/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1223300537&sr=8-1) (marked from £25 down to £9), The Rolling Thunder Logbook (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Rolling-Thunder-Logbook-T-Bone-Burnett/dp/1860746403/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1223300586&sr=1-1) (£14 down to £7), A Hedonist in the Cellar: Adventures in Wine (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hedonist-Cellar-Adventures-Wine/dp/0747588465/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1223300656&sr=1-2) (£14 down to £7, I think), and more.

Although you wouldn't be amiss in initially assuming it's a Waterstones. Because it's rather unassuming. The selection of books available is admirable for the store's size. So until I eventually get a Kindle (and after that when I'm looking for non-ebook-friendly titles), I think I'll eschew the chain giants and make this my go-to local book store. (And it's the only place I've ever seen a "Congratuations on your divorce" greeting card for sale. Just, you know, in case you've been looking for one, as you would.)

If you are in the area and a book lover, this shop is a must-visit. The prices and selection are dangerous! I had to be careful not to buy out the whole store.

And not just coffee, tempting cakes and snacks during the day and drinks in the evening - you could easily spend a whole day here munching your way through the menu and browsing an amazing collection of photography books and zines you may not find elsewhere - slowly but surely growing into a comprehensive library of self published art books. They host regular events and I attended an exciting talk about a photographer's journey. There's something special about people who like books and you feel instantly welcome in this tiny place, sharing tables with people who won't be strangers by the end of the evening. We carried on talking well past the official curfew (currently 8-ish) without staff getting annoyed. Oh, and for the more serious photographers, there's a fully equipped lab downstairs ...

This place is a pretty cool find* for anyone traipsing down Brewer Street…read more The tatty, un-modified exterior - of what was presumably a dry cleaners back in the day, going on the name - is not designed to invite random bypassers inside. Being a Japanese-only manga and bookstore, this place will mean little to most people - including myself. But the set-up - floor to ceiling bookcases creating a mini-warren of Nihon literature, anime and periodicals - is worth popping in to for the experience alone - very 'dépaysant', to borrow a phrase from across the channel.

Not that I've been to all that many karaoke spots in London, but this is one of the first places I…read morewent to, and is still my favorite spot! Its a second hand Japanese bookstore, within an ex-launderette, and with karaoke rooms in the back! I can't say much about the bookstore, but everyone else seems thrilled with the selection there. What I can vouch for are the karaoke rooms in the back! I can't quite remember how much it costs per hour, I think it undercuts a few of the major chains. Reservations require a deposit up front (I believe you have to go to the store to do this). The rooms are really cramped, but what better way to spend time with a bunch of people, screaming at the top of their lungs, than to be squished up against one another?? This place is awesome for a number of reasons: - good selection of English and Japanese songs - BYOB (they have a mini bar fridge for you to keep your stuff cool, and there's a Co-Op around the corner) - You can bring your own snacks and hot food, as long as its nothing too strong smelling Definitely one of the best finds I've stumbled into!

When I went to print some documents, unfortunately, my phone ran out of battery. I asked the elderly woman if I could use my tablet and connect to the Wi-Fi to send the documents for printing, and she said I could, but with a very unpleasant attitude. Naturally, I needed a password to access the Wi-Fi, but when I asked her, she kept insisting that Ryman's Wi-Fi doesn't have a password and was very unwilling to provide it, all with a very rude demeanor. Additionally, there were a few other customers in the store who were treated well. Is it because I'm Asian that I wasn't treated the same? I will definitely never return to this racist and hostile store.
