Oxford Bookstore

It seems arbitrary to pick one from Mumbai's many bookstores, but Oxford Bookstores has earned its place as the best corner nook for a book. The careful selection of books from an exhaustive cross-section of interests mean that you might actually find what you were looking for under one roof instead of scavenging for it across Mumbai's many second-hand book stalls. In-house readings and book signings offer a chance to chat with some of your favorite authors. There’s an in-store ‘Cha Bar’ with interesting brews and bites, a much needed kickback after an afternoon of engaged intellectual activity. This may all be passé now, but back in the day Oxford was the pioneer that paved the way.
