At over 17,000 square feet and spread across three floors, Blackwell, South Bridge is recognised as one of Scotland's finest bookshops. Located in the centre of the city and conveniently close to The University of Edinburgh, books have been sold from our site for over 150 years. We are proud to cater for all general, educational and academic book requirements.
In 2008 we were listed among the Independent's top 50 bookshops in the UK - "It's a labyrinth for book-lovers. Its location beside Edinburgh University has always meant it's a good stop for students, although the rest of the shop is equally well stocked, with a great children's section and exhaustive travel department." - Independent 24th May 2008.
