Bookbag Exeter
Exeter's independent bookshop. We stock a select range of fiction and non-fiction, art and nature, children and teen books. We celebrate local-global stories, plus expect book and music pairings, and a mix of events.
We believe bookshops are places for culture and community, right there on our High Streets. We have a lively event programme, recently we've co-hosted a festival, hosted author talks, book launches, open mic poetry, kids workshops, and a book launch combined with a wild swim (soggy.) We curated booklists and ran pop-up shops for Exeter College, local theatre and museum, LGBTQ+ community events, and co-hosted Africa Writes - Exeter.
We really appreciate each and every time someone shops for books on Bookshop.org and nominates Bookbag as their chosen indy.
A heartfelt thank you from us to you.
IRL, we're open from 10 am - 5 pm, Tuesday - Saturday, and 11 am - 3 pm on Sundays. If you'd like to collect a book from the bookshop email [email protected] to order directly from us. We're housed in McCoys Arcade in Exeter's indy quarter so come and say hi.
