About Lamplight Books
It all kicked off with a global pandemic. Our well laid plans for the year ahead were in tatters and, in-between lockdowns, we met up for a drink. We took in our changed landscape and said to each other, “why not open a store?”
Retail is in our blood. It’s in the blood of our mothers and grandmothers. It’s in the hot summers of holiday work, the Christmases of folding wrapping paper and the after-school hours spent waiting for a lift home. Of course, we went off and did other things but retail had a way of pulling us back. The books, well, we never left them.
We love that Lamplight Books has come alive as a neighbourhood store. It’s an independent store – a thoughtful store – filled with gorgeous books, from celebrating Te Ao Māori, to the classics and the contemporary. Like our neighbourhood, we’ve got a special focus on Art, Design and Architecture.
Ink, paper, illustrations – what else is there, when the world looks set to darken?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An absolute gem of a bookstore, a real treasure trove of books of wide variety matched with stellar personable service. They really are your local bookstore with familiar faces and a fabulous selection of books that you won't find in mainstream/chain bookstores. Love the little outdoor reading area they have & being a family of avid readers, I was really impressed with their children books section as well :)
