Holman's Bookshop
Popped in every morning for my newspapers and usually ended up buying something else as well. Its got so many goodies, gifts, toys etc. that its hard to walk out without buying an additional item or two. Its a long established shop as the previous person commented and it is very well run with polite staff.

Another great addition to The Whitby Harbour Guide. Holman's Book Shop as well as having a great and extensive selection of books, also has a fantastic and large selection of greeting cards, stationery, jigsaws, toys, gifts and newspapers. It was established in 1920, so these guys know exactly what they are doing!
