Bookmongers secondhand bookshop, a Brixton institution, has been a constant on Coldharbour Lane, South London, since 1992, and is widely known for its unique atmosphere and independent spirit.
We aim to provide a relaxed and welcoming environment for booklovers of all ages, and a meeting point and sense of continuity for the people of Brixton…
We’re famous too for our animals: dearly departed dogs Leo and Rosa are commemorated in artwork inside and outside the shop, while the pugnacious Popeye, a former stray cat and veteran of Brixton market, is currently very much in residence…and something of a star on our Instagram site!
