I recently visited Soweto Book Cafe, which is nestled in the heart of Soweto. This community book shop has a little of everything for everyone.

There’s a collection of over 500 books that comprises of non-fiction and fiction books. The community contributes to the collection by calling upon the cafe to make a collection of their pre-loved books. Some of the titles are sourced from bookstores.

The Soweto Book Store offers the following services to the community:

  • Hosting literature events like storytelling; book club meetings
  • Numerology readings
  • Chess club meetings

The book shop has a panoramic view of Soweto from it’s balcony and ample space for a meeting of any kind.

Be sure to follow the bookstore: Soweto Book Cafe on Instagram and like the page on Facebook.
