Booklovers beware! This enticing little Jericho shop can easily swallow an hour of your time. Specialising in remainders and discounted stocks, largely from academic publishers, which it sells at £3 each or two for £5, it also serves coffee and snacks, with rickety tables on the little pavement terrace out front.
