"Hidden gem located in the heart ❤ of Observatory Thank you Xavier and Team, for the welcoming and great experience"
"I love popping down to Obz books"
"Great selection"
"Solid little place"
What a thrilling place - a book-lover's heaven. OBZ Books is clearly the result of many years of discriminating collecting. I found so many wonderful things during my recent visit there! Although I only saw a fraction of the whole collection, what struck me were the many books and other publications that one can't easily find anymore: beautiful picture books, an incredible magazine collection, even records. The staff were helpful, informed and kind. Thank you, OBZ Books, for your brilliant bookshop!
Hidden gem located in the heart ❤ of Observatory Thank you Xavier and Team, for the welcoming and great experience. The decor is "very kitch" and the selection of books and old records is sought after On my next visit, I will most definitely indulge in your coffees ☕☕ Let's support local business and help each other and the economy to become strong again
I love popping down to Obz books. Xavier and Carmalita super helpful...and just mention a character in a book and someone will be able to tell you who the author is, or suggest a similar style/ genre ect. Worth a visit. And when you see what new books cost...an absolute treasure trove for a good price. Next up is to try the coffee shop.
Great selection. Prices slightly higher than I'd expect of your average second-hand book store, but the volumes are generally in great condition and some of them are even new. They also serve hot beverages and baked goods, if that's your sort of thing.
Solid little place. Great books and they have a diverse selection of books. However, the books were not in alphabetical order which made them difficult to navigate. I found the staff there to be very unprofessional.
Very informed store owner with excellent knowledge of the book trade. Able to make very good recommendations on genre's and writers. I enjoyed shopping here very much.
Well stocked book shop with comfortable chairs to lounge in and read. Coffee and light meals served in the shop. Books are expensive
Coffeeshop, bookshop, hotspot. A bookshop that doubles as a coffeeshop. Found a couple of good reads but not sure on the coffee.
Great selection of new and antique books at very reasonable prices owner so knowledgeable and helpful staff
It's a chill place, the nice thing is that you can connect to the WiFi from across the streets from there.
My favorite local bookstore, the staff are always friendly and they have a great selection of books.
Changed its name to 'that place'. Great books, good music and coffee - and wonderful ambience
Wide selection of second hand books, most in still good condition and at a reasonable price.
A veritable treasure trove! Well organized and catalogued. Staff knowledgeable and helpful.
It's a great second hand bookstore where they sell records, CD's, DVD's and posters as well
Very good selection of quality books about different topics. The Staff also excellent.
Excellent titles. Steep prices, but you get what you pay for
Always nice to see what people aren't reading anymore.
I loved it, workers are super friendly and its fun.
Good service and friendly staff
