Waterstones Oldham absolutely delightful staff and service. Ordered a book yesterday, picked up today. Lovely chat with staff who do a sterling job in a small branch. Need a little more customer support. Thank you for your patience and help today, will return soon. X

I was on a rather extensive bear hunt. I was looking for a particular retired jellycat. Having called countless stores, I called Richmond Waterstones. The really helpful lady didn't have it in stock but searched for all the stores that may have stock. She led me to Tunbridge Wells. I called and spoke to Lucy, who went above and beyond to help. Not only did she find the golden chalice, and make my daughters Christmas, but she arranged to have it posted to me, as it's not my local store. She couldn't have been more helpful. I've always loved Waterstones but it has an even greater warm and fuzzy feeling now. Thank you Tunbridge Wells and thank you Richmond. You have very special staff. Merry Christmas x

Taunton branch: all the staff are always polite and welcoming, they ask if they can recommend a book and 9/10 times I buy the book, they sometimes hold author evenings which are always nice to attend.

Been ordered books since the start off the lockdown from Waterstones, love the ease and speed in delivery plus the fact you get points for every purchase just sway me away from using Amazon. I love supporting the smaller companies!

I recently had 2 orders - one for myself and the other sent to my daughter as a present. Both orders despatched and received within a week of ordering. came by Royal Mail and I was able to follow their progress thanks to an email from Waterstones which gave acces to PO tracking system. All very satisfactory.

Great customer service. I was picking up a few books and knickknacks for Christmas. I was helped by a wonderful member of staff at the Edinburgh Princes Street store. Couldn't be happier!

Friendly knowledgeable shop staff. Places to sit while trying out a book or books. Often picking up something very different, (I am a Science Fiction addict!) But will often pick up a totally different genre becauce it has been put out on a table. Plus free delivery to home store, no waiting in! And the best loyalty card and stamp collecting! On line is fine, but real book shops are best!
