About this venue

Petworth's Black, queer and Asian-owned independent bookstore curates the city as it actually reads: intersectional fiction, children's books, politics and gifts share room with a relentless programme of authors and neighbourhood gatherings. The result feels precise, generous and deeply local.

Venue intelligence

Know before you go

What you’ll find

New books for adults and children with particular depth in work by BIPOC, queer, disabled and other marginalised writers, plus stationery, home goods, gifts, events and the Leap of Faith surprise-box programme.

Best time to browse

Saturday opens earliest and suits a morning neighbourhood circuit; weekday afternoons leave more space for recommendations. Check the stacked event calendar before visiting—join when an author conversation appeals, or browse earlier to avoid the busiest room changeover.

Online store & international shipping

The official catalogue supports shipping, store pickup and curated programmes. Inventory shown online may not describe every object in the physical gift selection. Delivery costs and eligible destinations are set during checkout; email the team for order-specific questions.

Payment methods

The live checkout controls current online payment methods, and the store does not publish a permanent full register list. Ask before a large institutional order or when one wallet, cash option or overseas card is essential.

Privacy & inclusion

Black, queer and Asian owned, with a majority queer and woman-powered staff and an all-ages mission centred on diverse communities. The website reports an ADA compliance review; request specific seating, sensory or event accommodation in advance.
