Borders Southampton – Read, Watch, Listen, Live!

Situated directly behind the South's largest shopping centre, next door to the UK's newest and largest Ikea, and with the city's cheapest car parking, Borders Southampton is the place to shop! With the widest range of Books and Magazines and a great selection of DVDs, CDs, Stationery, Calendars, Toys and Games, it's no surprise Borders Southampton was named Pick of the Bookshops two years running by Southampton University.

Books, DVDs, CDs: Not only have we got one of the biggest ranges around, with some fantastic offers, as Children’s Retailer of the Year we have a great choice of Children's books, toys and games.

Magazines & Sidelines: We boast the largest selection of magazines and subscriptions around, with over 2000 titles available, and offer some fantastic savings on magazine subscription packages. We also stock a wide selection of toys, games, bookmarks and many other gifts.

Events, Groups, and Clubs: There's something for everyone, from Southampton's biggest Stitch 'n' Bitch club to Book Clubs, author signings and live music. For the kids, we have regular Storytimes and Activities in our Children's department. Visit the Events page for more information.

And that's not all... we have designer stationery from Paperchase, and after a busy afternoon's shopping why not treat yourself to a coffee in our in-store Starbucks café.

Those all important extras... From Gift Cards to gift wrapping, late-night opening to personal recommendations, Borders Southampton offers the best service around.
