Mostly Books is a fabulous independent bookshop. The team are fantastic and nothing is too much trouble. The choice is excellent and the shop is very welcoming to children. It's a lovely place to pick up treats for loved ones (and for yourself)!

This book shop is the best! Amazing place to take your kids to enjoy books the right way, and the events just make it that much better. Friendly staff that take the time to help. Little piece of book lovers paradise!

Just a brilliant place.... friendly and knowledgeable staff, warm environment, fantastic events and a great stock of books. Nothing is too much trouble in here, a real part of our community. Thanks Mostly Books!

What's not to like about this gem of a bookshop nestled in the streets of Abingdon. Friendly and knowledge staff, varied stock, dedicated kids activity area and a programme of interesting events to name a few things. Well done we will be back!

I love this bookshop - independent, knowledgeable and friendly. Always leave with a brilliant purchase, especially for my niece and nephew (and usually one for me too)!

Staff were very helpful. Lots to choose from despite being a small shop!

This shop does not have an all inclusive policy. Natalie Ceeney, chairwoman of the Access to Cash Review, said: "Businesses who don't accept cash are saying to the most vulnerable in society: 'You're not welcome here'. The government has plans to make rules to protect cash and, as part of this, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) could oversee that. A blanket non acceptance of cash is discriminatory and not acceptable. Covid as an excuse is also not acceptable. The Bank of England has said the risk from banknotes is ‘no greater than touching any other common surface, such as handrails, doorknobs or credit cards’. It cemented this position in November, by revealing the results of scientific research into the spread of germs on cash. The research concluded that ‘any risk from handling cash should be low’, particularly compared with ‘high-touch’ objects such as shopping baskets, self-checkout touchscreens or products for sale.

Great selection of books. Helpful, friendly staff

Excellent little bookshop. Super friendly staff who care about books. Fantastic selection of children's books. If they don't have the book you want in stock, they'll order and have it within the next day or 2. They can source used copies of books that are out of print as well. I'll look forward to being able to browse the displays to choose my next read once the lockdowns are all over. Although they have been running an effective click and collect option over the last year.

Fabulously quaint little book shop with a brilliant selection of books to suit all ages! If you're ever in the centre in Abingdon go check it out!
