Sun Bookshop
A sweet little neighbourhood bookstore set in the former candy bar of an art deco theatre.
Overview
The Sun Bookshop is what boutique bookstore dreams are made of. Tucked into the gorgeous art deco Sun Theatre building, the shop sells everything from a curated selection of fiction, biography, history, travel and crime to art, design and photography books — plus a fun selection of artistic cards. And if you well up at thoughtful, heartwarming kid-puns, then grab a tissue — the Sun's business-child The Young Sun is only 60 steps away on Murray Street. It features a collection of beautiful children's books in a homely, cosy space. Both bookstores also host events, which you can keep up to date with here and here.
