The Head and The Hand Books

The Head & The Hand opened H&H Books, a community-focused bookstore in the Fishtown/greater Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia, in May 2019. Our goal for the space is to provide thoughtfully curated fiction and nonfiction, a robust local literature section, and children’s/middle grade books. We host many events, including readings, workshops, children’s programming (including free story times), and more! We also offer the opportunity to book the store for date nights. 

Bookshop's massive inventory does not reflect what we carry in our brick-and-mortar store. If you have a question about what's available inside H&H's four walls, send us a direct order request here. 

We're located at 2230 Frankford Avenue, and we're open 12-4:45 p.m. Tuesdays--Thursdays, 12-5:45 p.m. Fridays, and 10 a.m.- 4:45 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays.
