Golden Hare Books

Golden Hare Books is known as one of Edinburgh’s most charming  independent bookshops.

The shop is community-focused and has a great selection of translated books. Browsing here feels personal and thoughtfully arranged.

Instead of filling the shop with endless shelves, the space is set up like a gallery. Beautiful covers and elegant editions have space to stand out and catch your eye.

Inside, the shop feels warm, welcoming, and truly independent. Face-out displays with handpicked books line the walls. Soft lighting, wooden interiors, and a wood-burning stove make it feel cosy and peaceful.

In a city known for its love of literature, Golden Hare Books shows the thoughtful, personal side of bookselling at its best.

Golden Hare Books – part of the Stockbridge experience

The beautiful Stockbridge shopfront is now a local landmark.

Stockbridge really enhances your visit. You can stop by Golden Hare Books, then take a walk along the Water of Leith, enjoy coffee at a local café, or explore the Sunday market. For many, the bookshop is just one of the reasons to love Stockbridge, which is known as one of Edinburgh’s most relaxed and culturally rich areas.
