Book Launch Enquiry
If you're an author with a book coming out soon, we're a great place to host your book launch. Our bar means our white wine is actually chilled, we're determined to ensure launch party guests buy the book, and our beautiful blue bookshop makes a lovely backdrop for a buzzy party, especially if you want to give a speech. Plus, we're only a 3-minute walk from Balham station. Please fill out our inquiry form here.
