Word on the Water, a bookstore on a barge, is truly a book-lovers paradise. Every nook and cranny of this 100-year-old Dutch barge is stacked with neat rows of new and used classics, cult, contemporary fiction and a large range of children’s books.
A book shop and so much more ...
Customers are welcome to browse the books displayed outside or jump aboard and cosy up with a book by the stove! While books are clearly the star of the show, every inch of the barge is cleverly used to its fullest potential.
Word on the Water runs talks on art, technology, feminism and politics. Musicians and performers also make use of the barge’s roof stage and solar sound system for open mic sessions and there’s even an occasional poetry slam!
Word on the Water is permanently moored on Regent’s Canal Towpath just past The Lighterman restaurant.
