Had an amazing time at the grotto today, a lovely “mrs Claus” read my children a Christmas story and a had a sing a long before seeing Santa who was so friendly and there was a magical photo which amazed my little girl. We absolutely loved the experience and I fully recommend

We absolutely adore this shop. Everyone working here is so friendly, kind and knowledgable. Great place to sit with a hot drink and watch the world go by, or dive into some new books. For children it’s a magical wonderland of bookish discoveries and adults who treasure them. I always get perfect gift recommendations here.

An absolute little gem of a children's bookshop, well worth a visit. Norwich is incredibly blessed to have such an original and authentic independent business, not only is it well stocked with hand picked titles for readers of all ages it regularly runs workshops and events and makes great coffee too! The icing on the cake are the wonderful murals and artwork by top literary and illustration talent, not to mention the many quirky and different species of dragons whose heads are dotted around the walls!

Bookbugs is a wonderful bookshop for the whole community. Fantastic selection of books for children and adults, great events, delicious coffee, and the kindest, most knowledgeable staff.

I highly recommend their book subscriptions. They have a knack for picking the perfect book, and it's such a treat through the letterbox every month.

Called into today this absolutely lovely local book shop. We as a family walked past the wonderful window displays many times but not made it in till today.

Myself and my daughter (2years old) popped in and where warmly greeted. They kindly explained where everything was including they sell coffees/hot drinks which is a win as a parent.

We explored the bookshop, my daughter stopping regularly to sit in the kiddie reading chairs or give the teddies a hug.

There was a huge selection of kids books including all the favourites. Plenty to read there and then, toys around and just a lovely feel to the place.

We will definitely be back soon!!! Thank you

This is one of my favourite shops in Norwich. I have 6 grandchildren of varying ages and reading levels so to take the advice from Leanne and her team is invaluable. The team have a terrific working knowledge of the content of their stock and can advise on reading age and interests.
I would highly recommend a visit. The shop is only a 2 min walk from the John Lewis car park so is ideally placed as no roads to cross with the little ones. The book ordering service is swift and efficient and it’s great to support local!
