Bohemia Book Shop

A secondhand bookshop that happens to make good coffee

Bohemia runs a coffee counter and a real bookshop under one roof: English, Afrikaans and German titles on the shelves, plus pancakes and hot drinks that keep people at the tables longer than a quick browse. It's an unusual combination for a town of Otjiwarongo's size, closer to what you'd expect from a university town than a stop on the road to Etosha.

The shop has moved at least once, relocating over a Christmas break to a spot behind the Metro hardware store. Worth knowing before you show up at an old address from an outdated listing. It's still one of the few places in town set up for sitting still with a book rather than just passing through.

Good to know

• Books are in English, Afrikaans and German; worth asking if you're after something specific in a particular language.
• The shop has moved locations before; check their current address before driving over.
