This is a nice Waterstones store, located on James Street in Harrogate town centre, it is over three floors, despite the floors themselves being a little small, it does have a reasonable selection across the floors, including a Cafe on the First Floor.
I did find the store to be very cluttered, it was just full of empty and half-empty boxes, which hadn't been put away with no staff member nearby, it felt more like an obstacle course, to get into the store and towards the back of the ground floor.
The staff seemed friendly enough, the store layout is easy to follow with the store guide,
They didn't have the handwritten descriptions and notes to accompany the books which other Waterstones stores have, this is a shame as this is one of the things I like about Waterstones and find it adds a more personal touch.
Prices are higher than Amazon and co but again tend to be common with most bookshops.
Advertising for events inside the store remains in place, which will be worth a look if you're interested.
3* - Decent selection of books, yet the store could be kept a lot tidier. read more
