Daunt Books Marylebone, Independent bookstore in Marylebone, United Kingdom
Daunt Books Marylebone is an independent bookstore housed in a three-story Edwardian building with oak galleries and green walls. The shop features shelves displaying international literature, with a glass-roofed conservatory providing additional space for the collection.
The building began as Francis Edwards antiquarian bookshop before James Daunt took over and refocused it on travel literature in 1990. This shift transformed the space into a center for books about travel and exploration.
The shop hosts regular author events throughout the year where readers can meet writers directly, attend discussions, and have books signed. These gatherings create a gathering place for people who love reading and enjoy talking about books.
The store is easily accessible via Baker Street tube station, making it convenient to reach from across London. Opening hours vary between weekdays and Sundays, so it's worth checking the schedule ahead of your visit.
Books are organized by country and region, grouping travel guides, maps, fiction, and history into corresponding national collections. This arrangement makes it easy to find everything about a particular destination in one place.
