Grant and Cutler Ltd : The UK's Largest Foreign Language Bookseller

Welcome to Grant & Cutler at Foyles

Grant & Cutler is the largest foreign-language bookseller in the UK, stocking books, DVDs, CDs, games and software packages in more than 150 languages. The firm was established in 1936, and in March 2011 we merged with iconic UK bookseller Foyles and moved to the first floor of their flagship Charing Cross Road branch, a few minutes' walk from our previous location.

Established in 1903, Foyles at Charing Cross Road has the largest range of books in the UK, with more than 200,000 titles across its four floors. It won the UK Bookseller of the Year award in 2008 and 2010 and provides a vibrant new location for Grant & Cutler.

Grant & Cutler at Foyles specialises in the major Western European languages and Russian, but we pride ourselves on covering all living languages, from Afrikaans to Zulu. We also carry substantial stocks in Arabic and the Eastern European languages, particularly Polish. It is particularly exciting that, as part of Foyles, we can now offer a full range of EFL material, though this is accessible only on the Foyles website here.
