Welcome to Water Street Bookstore, the largest independent bookstore on
the seacoast of New Hampshire. We feature a comprehensive selection of
both local and national authors. Our friendly and knowledgable staff
will be happy to assist you in finding just the right book for you.
The Exeter Theater Company wants to hear from our teens to find out what they want to see at the Ioka. Old movies? New movies? Bands? Comedians? Community events, like a Battle of the Bands or drama productions? We want the new Ioka to be a venue you want to go to, a place that provides something for everyone in our community. Don't miss your chance to tell us want we can do to interest YOU.
For every $100 you spend at a local indie business, $68 will stay in the community. When you spend that same $100 at a national chain, only $43 stays in your community.
Local businesses carry a wider array of unique products because they buy for their own market: the people in their community. They know you and know what you like and want.
You wouldn’t want your house to look like everyone else’s in the U.S. Why would you want your community to look that way? More diversity in your community enhances its appeal.
