The Mainstreet Trading Company: Books, Café, Deli, Home & Online

WELCOME TO MAINSTREET

Based in the Scottish Borders village of St Boswells, The Mainstreet Trading Company is a destination in itself. Husband and wife team, Rosamund and Bill de la Hey, renovated the former auction house in 2008 to create a light and airy space filled with books and the smell of coffee. In 2012, they went on to create Mainstreet Deli & Home in a beautiful barn behind the main shop.

There is little that compares with the joy of receiving a parcel from Mainstreet. The care that goes into each delivery warms my heart; the wrapping, the pretty string, the note and the lovely carton. It’s wonderful. We are seriously considering a move north, and Mainstreet is a major contributing factor!
