Exciting Books in Soho
Art, Travel, History... and of course a dollop of Sex
Location: 11 Brewer Street, W1F 0RQ
Description: Since 1993 there has been a book shop here selling mostly rude stuff!
Now with cult status in London 'Soho Original Books' is now an independent chain allowing for a bizarre mix of books and licensed sex.
With books from all the usual subjects - art and travel to children's stories and history - located upstairs, it's below street level in the basement that it all gets a bit fruity.
Books, DVDs and toys are all here with a distinctly adult theme! There's also lotions, aids and herbal pills on offer... so in conclusion.
Another of London's classic locations but for the more adult side of you!
