The Works

The Works advertises itself, primarily, as a discount bookstore, but can also be great for picking up bargains on cards, art supplies, instruments and a whole other load of random things!
The Harrogate Works is laid out over 3 floors, the ground floor on which you enter, and downstairs and an upstairs.
The downstairs stocks various art supplies, stationary and art related books (with the odd computer program thrown in!). There are some great bargains to be found here, the canvases particularly are great value, and some of the branded stationary is much cheaper then elsewhere.
The main floor stocks the most popular books, seasonal products and a whole other random selection of things! There are some good discounts to be found on books, particularly biography type books– you won’t generally find the current bestsellers in here.
The upstairs is all books, and has a wide selection of different categories and genres.
The shop is well laid out and easy to find your way round, and the staff are friendly and helpful.
So all in all, worth a look, but don’t always go in looking for something specific– it may not be there however you may be surprised by everything you do find there!
