Nice to meet you!

A little about who we are

​We are a family run, independent bricks & mortar store located in Palace Avenue, Paignton, Devon. We've been family run now since 2013. We stock a fantastic range of items, including what we are known best for - our wide selection of stationery and our choice of art and craft supplies, which includes student and artist quality, to suit every need.


We also offer popular services such a photocopying, lamination and more.


A bit of history

The shop name 'Axworthys' dates back to 1868, where it first started as a commercial printers located on Winner Street in Paignton. 'Axworthys' then survived a devastating fire and the store was re-located to Torquay Road. Lastly 'Axworthys' moved to Palace Avenue where it still stands serving customers today, offering products and services to the local community.
