Our

STORY

Image by Kyle  Ryan

Our history dates back to 1963 when Philip and Moira Robinson opened Robinsons Bookshop in the main Frankston shopping precinct known as ‘Frankston’s Central Carpark’. At that time the Frankston Library was yet to be established and it was a rare treat to find a bookshop anywhere. This makes Robinson’s the Oldest General Independent Bookshop in Victoria. We celebrated our 50th birthday in 2013.​

​

Robinsons is housed in traditional, family values: we care, we read and we will continue to remain grounded community values. We are proud to be your local independent bookshop. Robinsons has been around for more than 50 years, and we are here to stay.
