This is such a lovely bookshop! Although it is not as big as others, the selection of books they have is amazing! Makes you wanna pick up and read! If you are interested in inner wellbeing and mindfulness, I would recommend that you browse through their section on Mindfulness. It is simply wonderful Kids would love it there too, the colours and atmosphere is just beautiful. In today’s world where technology is everywhere, it is so nice to be surrounded by books

  • Sam Keir

I love this little bookshop. It has been here for years and years and I think since Southbank first opened in early 1990's? Great range of books (hello), gift cards, gifts (particularly for kids) and other enticements. Bookstores to me are like the retail equivalent of hot jam donuts if I see them I have to go in (eat!).

  • Andrew Strano

One of my favourite bookshops in Melbourne- their staff recommendations are very specific and always clear- they’ll send you in the direction of a good read based on your preferences! I love dropping in as much to pick up a book as to have a chat. Good rewards scheme too!

  • Tish Hanscamp

Highly recommend this bookstore. Ordered books I couldn't find anywhere else, they arrived within a week of ordering and was shipped/received the day after I made payment. Staff are friendly and helpful, nothing is too much. Will always order my books from here.

23May19 1557 Inside the Southgate complex at street level next to the Yarra River the Mary Martin book shop does the right thing by piling books high on a shelf at the store entrance handy to the curious browser and passer-by. Too bad on

  • David Linehan

I’m a frequent customer here, once to twice a week almost and although their range is good their service is awful. I’m never greeted with a hi, never receive a please or thank you, absolutely nothing. Considering consumers can now buy

  • Jenny Syratt

For a small shop there was a huge selection, much more than I anticipated. Clean and tidy. Well organised shelving. Great ace to browse new titles and purchase a good read at normal retail pric ing. Sells some adult and child giftware.

  • Joseph Mark Switzer

shockingly low prices! It seems like it shouldn't be, but I got a great edition of Master and Margarita for $12. Southbank shopping centre is a strange place if you're a local Melbournian, but it has some gems!

  • Rowena Goldsmith

A good range of books. What makes this store extra special is the reviews the staff have written of books - can really help you decide if it is the next read for you to delve into.

  • Saku Abeysuriya
