Entering the shop is a step back in time: the building itself was constructed in 1710, and is listed. The interior is almost entirely original, right down to the archway sculpted with dancing fauns. The original hardwood floors are scattered with Persian rugs and mismatched antique bookcases line the original plaster walls. Pride of place is given to the legendary 'Browser's Sofa' on which many a customer has spent a blissful hour.
