We are a proudly independent bookshop in Harrogate, North Yorkshire. Located in Harrogate town centre in the beautiful and iconic Westminster Arcade on Parliament Street. We sell an eclectic mix of books across a range of genres for adults, young adults and children. We also sell a unique range of cards (mostly made in Yorkshire!), stationery and gifts to satisfy bibliophiles and non-bibliophiles alike. We can order any book in print, usually for the next day and we can send books to anywhere in the UK too! (If you’d like to order a book we can do that over the phone/email/social media so contact us to get in touch)

We are passionate about imagined things and the books that contain them. We think there is nothing better than browsing for your next read in a physical bookshop, and that nothing compares to flicking through the pages of an actual book. There is nothing better than connecting with the people behind the books: the authors. We hold a variety of author events including signings and evening events, adding to the already strong literary roots of the town.

Imagined Things is thoroughly independent, and we strive to offer something very different. We have bookshop fish you can visit and we will even have a bookshop dragon! If you want to know see Our Story at the top of the page or contact us…
