Our Plymstock Bookshop is back bigger, better and bursting with books!

3rd July 2025

Our Plymstock Bookshop has opened in its new premises

We officially reopened our beloved Plymstock Bookshop in its brand-new home on The Broadway Plymstock on Monday— and who better to cut the ribbon than The Gruffalo himself!

Rosie and Sophie, two of our very first visitors, were thrilled to meet our special guest.

Over the past year, we’ve sold more than 27,000 books to 16,300 customers — all from under 200 square feet! Now, we’ve quadrupled our space to welcome even more book lovers and stories.

Run by our amazing team of staff and volunteers, the bookshop is part of St Luke’s family of charity shops, supporting our specialist care across the region. You’ll find everything from children’s classics to gripping thrillers — just in time for summer reading. You can even pick up a cup of Owen’s Coffee while you browse.

Our Plymstock Bookshop is open Monday to Saturday from 9am to 4.30pm and Sundays from 10am to 4pm. Pop down to say hello and discover your next great read!
