Yes, this is the age of the Internet and all media can be found on your phone. That said, I love newspapers. I love magazines. There’s an art to headlines, to design. How photos are placed and which stories are chosen to meet your eye. Even ads help tell a story about the medium and you, the reader. These facts really pop when you can see a bunch of papers and magazines side by side. It is then when you can measure the soul of the news outlets. So here at Falstaffs you can browse scores of daily papers from all over the world, not to mention leading magazines. In an instant you can see how the world reacts to major stories. I can’t read Russian or Arabic, for example, but you can decipher their coverage of similar stories based on placement and photo selection. But you don’t always need to be so insightful. They’ll also sell you The Sun which you can read at the pub across the street.

Corner shop with a large selection of domestic and international newspapers and magazines as well as sodas and confectionery. Friendly. They also do phone and Oyster card top-ups.
