Second-hand and antiquarian books of Irish interest. Very large stock.

This business, established in 2013, trades mostly online but welcomes callers by prior appointment. The owner, Kevin, is a regular on the book fair circuit on the island of Ireland and takes a large range of his stock to the main fairs (Dublin, Cork, Kilkenny, Fethard, Wexford, Belfast etc), as well as to book festivals. Portlaw is a small town about ten miles from Waterford.  Booker T 20.04.24

I followed my wife into a common or garden Oxfam shop as I had nothing better to do. To my amazement it had a number of shelves of books, none more than thirty years old, but all of a good quality and standard. All were priced at E2 (approx £1.81 as I write) and I ended up purchasing nine titles. The shop is just down from the superb BOOK CENTRE, an independent store now occupying the Art Deco styled old Savoy Cinema.  Chris Harte 19.10.16
Always worth checking out in a city now devoid of second hand bookshops. The best of the charity shops in Waterford (but the bar is low).  Loyola 13.04.17
