Very pretty collection of tissues, diaries, ribbons, coasters and many more. In love with this store. Every piece is beautiful. Run by a lovely couple. Would definitely drop in during my next visit to Oxford.

This place is marvellous! They have a great amount of old lovely stuff and the man who attended us was really nice. We hope to go back again!

A step back in history to a more refined time. How every shop in Oxford should be! Run by the most lovely couple for over 45 years! Always up for a chat. Amazing selection of vintage books and prints!

Certainly the best shop in Oxford. Over the road from the best pub (see The three Goats heads) Books, prints, calendars (including advent), cards, gifts and excellent xmas decs when the season.

This is the best shop in town. Amazing for unique gifts and vintage items such as old Viz and Marvel comics, artisan soaps, cards, books and lots more. Been here for decades. Long may it continue!

Beautiful little shop just hidden out of view from the main stretch of the city. Sometimes you can find some pretty good books from here at quite reasonable prices, if you're a collector this is definitely more your style - many 1st edition books. I only wish it was larger and held more variety of products within it where one can get lost and explore it's whimsical crevices. Regardless, if you're into either books or the beautiful then make sure to visit when in Oxford.

I've always adored this shop. In every season it’s a feast for the senses and seems to embody William Morris’ golden rule, “Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful”. Classical music is always played, and with its collection of second-hand books, vintage prints and postcards, calendars, stationary and the prettiest gifts and decorations imaginable, it's an oasis of charm and fascination.

Amazing shop. It takes you back in time…

This shop is an absolute independent gem, nestled just off busy Cornmarket street and selling predominantly cheap second-hand books, cards, wrapping paper and small decorative items. It is very traditional, with very friendly staff, and is inexpensive compared to more commercial offerings. I can't recommend it enough.

Lovely stock well displayed nice lady

My favourite shop, they stock beautiful items for the home and I'm pleased to say I own a few items. Friendly helpful staff in Oxfords best independent shop. Always worth a good look.

Well decorated store with an impressive collection of items such as old books, calendars, and cards. Definitely the place to go if you are looking for a place to buy gifts. The staff is super friendly as well.

Essential to visit to experience traditional Oxford shopping. Since 1975 this shop has been selling beautiful items, such as candle holders, classic books, decorations for the home. I first went to Arcadia in 1998 as an undergraduate at St. John's. Upholding Oxford traditions this shop provides classic literature (2nd hand) and is an essential for tourists looking for the genuine Oxford experience.

Thanks for my Christmas 'change' today in chocolate coin format! Really sweet. Amazing little shop, could easily get lost for a while in the retro comics and books. Happy Christmas 🤶

A simply wonderful shop that is a must to visit every time I am able to get to Oxford. A gem. And I never seem to leave without some gorgeous purchase.

An amazing shop ,a-Must Visit-in Oxford,owned and run by an absolutely delightful couple.

We were transported to an age where amazing old books are affordable, plus we loved the old Dulac prints, ancient Sicilian postcards and 20s fashion magazines.
