Boobooks Step into a vibrant hub of literary treasures and delights, nestled in the Beardy St Mall. Up Armidale way? Come along and visit our bookish corner of the world.

Explore our endless collections of new and secondhand books, while savouring our local coffees, teas and a curated selection of locally made wines and craft beers. Since first opening in 2006, our bookstore has become one of the most popular places for locals and tourists to visit; with our large and varied collection of new, used, rare and antiquarian books and, now, our sumptuous cafe wine bar! Located in a beautiful art deco building in the heart of the Armidale CBD, we are known and loved for the boutique, elegant and vibrant bookish experience we provide - unlike any other bookstore in Australia! Our in-store cafe and wine bar serves locally produced coffees, loose-leaf teas, wines and beers. Paired with freshly baked treats, this is the perfect addition to your shopping experience at Boobooks.

Boobooks is getting a Loyalty Program!
We have so many loyal customers who make us their first choice for books. This holiday season we want to give back to you. You can expect special gifts, members-only perks, and immediate rewards with every book you buy.

How do you get all this and more?

Head over to our website and create an account with us. It’s completely free! You’ll find the option to ‘log in’ or ‘sign up’ at the top right-hand corner of the page and if you already have an account with us, you’ll be added straight to our loyalty program when it launches on November 18th.

Why the wait? To celebrate the launch all members who sign up before the 18th of November will get $5 to spend on books when our loyalty program launches, this is a limited offer and after December 18th you'll only get the usual rewards and credit that our loyalty program will offer.

To redeem this as an online customer please make sure your postal address is connected to your account as this is how we distinguish between local customers and those a little further away. You can do this by clicking on your account name at the top right-hand corner of our Boobooks webpage, selecting 'My Account' from the drop down menu, and then clicking 'Update Profile' where you'll be able to edit your information. Once you've done this you'll be ready for our launch when we'll email you a promo code to use at the check out.

For locals, simply come into the shop, find some books, and when you come to the check out let our staff know you're a member by providing your name and email, and we'll take $5 off your purchase. This offer only lasts until December 18th!

Keep an eye out!

We’ll be opening the door for a new Loyalty Program feature each week in the lead up to Christmas. So mark November 18th in your calendar for the launch of our new program and all the details on its biggest feature!
