Waterstones - Milton Keynes

Nothing is more pleasant than browsing in this lovely bookshop. Staff are friendly ,well trained and efficient. Highly recommended.

I was a bit concerned when Watersone 's had a new owner. They are perhaps the only bookstore in and around the Milton Keynes where you can actually go to when looking for a book or are lost as to your next bit of reading material. Unless, of course, you go to an on-line retailer, which isn 't always an option as you might need your book immediately. This particular branch has helpful and knowledgeable staff and a reasonable selection of books to browse before making your choice and there 's always some sort of offer on current titles, such as 'Buy-one-get-one free ' or 'buy-one-and-get-one-half-price ' or similar. The layout has been updated and some of the shelving modernised so giving the store a more contemporary feeling. Generally a good store but some more modernisation needs to be done. It 's not always easy to find what you 're looking for, but it should be made simpler with different signage.

One of the more expensive book stores probably but huge variety of books and very helpful staff. Staff will assist however they can. Good location

Finished shopping and always call for tea and cake lovely and a nice cup of tea small seating area but it is very comfy

Waterstones offer a huge selection of books and maps across so many genres, but it's much more than this. It's a place with professional, hardworking, smiley, efficient people who go out of their way to help you with your choice of book even if you don't know the full title or author. They are amazing and make the shop even more fabulous. Well worth a visit. Much recommended.
