Foyles, officially W&G Foyle Ltd, is a long-standing independent bookseller based in London. Founded in 1903 and still owned by the Foyle family, it operates four shops across London and one in Bristol. In 2014, the flagship on Charing Cross Road relocated to a purpose-built space that houses about 200,000 titles across 37,000 square feet of retail space. The store network contributes to London's book retail landscape as a large-format independent bookseller. The company operates stores at venues including Royal Festival Hall, London Waterloo Station, Westfield Stratford, and Bristol Cabot Circus, with a Birmingham Grand Central location opening in 2015. In 2023, Foyles partnered with the East and Southeast Asian Publishing Network to launch a literary festival, expanding its engagement with publishing communities.
