The Little Ripon Bookshop

The Little Ripon Bookshop is a family-run Independent Bookshop in Ripon, North Yorkshire, 12 miles from Harrogate and a stone’s throw from the glorious Fountain’s Abbey.

We opened the shop in 2009, and in 2018 expanded into the gallery next door.

Our range of books is exciting and changes constantly. We work hard to balance new publications with classics and old favourites. We can't stock everything but if you are looking for a particular book and we do not have it in stock, we can usually get it by the following day. If you’re coming to visit us from far away please feel free to order or reserve books a day or two before so they are here when you visit!

We sell beautiful cards and stationery as well as maps, and reading related gifts.

Our website contains a small selection of our books; If you want to order online for delivery to your home, please use this link to our partner website bookshop.org. Please have a look around, see what we’ve got on, check out our social media and, if you have the chance, come and visit us in the shop.

We are dog friendly so bring them in!
