Best place to buy books in Abu Dhabi. Loved the customer service and ambience. Everything is neatly arranged. Lot of japanese books which you cannot find elsewhere in Abu Dhabi.

Kinokuniya got a lot of different interesting books for readers so you will need times to leisurely walk around. It is not as nice as the one in Bangkok but it is still great.

Love this place, such a good source for books from outside the UAE. I think of it like Barnes & Noble in the US. Always buying from here instead of Amazon!

The most Amazing beautiful bookstore in Abu Dhabi you will find all titles of books that you need and if you haven’t found it they will order it for you . I wish if they could use their empty place upstairs to open a coffee shop.I recommend for a book lover to visit it.

Opened in May 2020, the collection of arabic books was very good, smaller than Dubai Mall branch, but I guess this is the biggest bookstore in Abu Dhabi.

Today, I finally took a break from isolation to treat myself to a pile of new books (for the obvious purpose of reading more in isolation later). I had also been super excited to check out the new Kinokuniya store in Abu Dhabi since I first heard of the opening. Within minutes of entering the store, I was welcomed by the lovely staff and directed to the second level to search for future treasures. Initially, I planned to look on my own, quite confident that I would find most of the titles on my prepared list. Realizing that I was on a time crunch however, swayed me to accept the offer of help instead. This turned out to be the best decision since I was able to quickly cross off more books on my list than I had expected. At least three different employees found a book, or two, or three for me, all the while those that had no luck were sympathetic with the gentle let down. The promise of ordering later, or buying online, gave me the comfort I needed before purchasing these new additions to my TBR pile. I did not want to leave so soon, but my wallet likely appreciated the departure. I will definitely be back though. Until then, thank you!

I always come here to buy figures manga etc.. the last time i went i got a sailor moon figure and when i opened it , it was broken so the next day i came back with the receipt and asked them to change it since it was already broken and they said they can’t change it which was disappointing since i paid a lot of money for it, angered me how they treat customers

In a browsing mood? You will find lots of bookshelves and real estate to cover at Kinokuniya! If you are a bookworm, you will be tempted to make a load of purchases across two floors of neatly organized shelves and display cases. The shop also sells a great deal of art supplies, journals, and school / office items.

Excellent place to start reading journey; there are many motivated books. The English books are more than the Arabic one; however, the place is very organized and beautiful. Walking between the bookshelves was an different experince than other book’s shops. I never visited the one in dubai, so can’t compare it with that one. I recommend you visit it at least once, to check the vibe even if you are not planning to buy any book.

Best book store for business books. Moreover the books there are in agood shap (compared to other book stores that you feel that books are ruined by reckless people). As a business man i noticed a big empty space in the second floor. I believe if they make it a coffee shop (for only readers) with discount on purchase books. It will be a striking and better that the card that offers 10% because it will connect the reader to this bookstore and give them a regular clients.

I think its the largest library (book store) in the capital, and frankly, the amount of choices is excellent. The books are available in all categories and the Arabic Books section is good. On top of this is the solid models and comic books section (Manga and Comics). There is nothing wrong with that, but the section is smaller than the section of the Dubai Mall branch.The childrens books section in both Arabic and English is excellent, and the children choose almost 10 books from both sections. Frankly, it is possible for one to dig deeper into the store in the store for an hour on the fridge, according to many options and sections.The administration and finance books section and other academic books are also excellent.The pens and office supplies section is much smaller than the Dubai Mall branch, but the list is good and you can get funny and strange things. They have the Japanese company Platiniums pens, which are considered close to the Montblanc pens. The first time I see it in the UAE, but it is much more expensive than online shops with delivery. But someone who wants to see first-class Japanese pens can see them.In general its a great place and I think I pass it once every month.For your information, Dubai Branch Debit Card is acceptable in this branch. And of course something positive and excellent.Probably the largest bookstore in the capital and by far the one with the most variety. After months of staying home I have been able to visit the store twice and am looking forward to making it a monthly visit.The Arabic section is good and the English litrature and fiction sections are great.The manga and comics section including the statues and action figures section is ok but not as large as the Dubai Mall branch.The children sections in both Arabic and English are great and my kids chose about 10 boys books overall and lived just having a look around.A person could easily spend an hour just browsing the place.The management books section is good and so are the other academic sections.The stationary section is much smaller than the Dubai Mall branch but includes interesting things. One brand that I have never seen in the UAE is Platinum pens which is a high end Japanese pen maker kind of the same level as Mont Blanc. Their fountain pens are on display and although more expensive than online sellers it is a good chance to have a look at them.All in all a great store and will become a must for a monthly stop.Also, the membership card issued at the Dubai Mall branch is accepted at this branch. Of course a welcomed positive.

Huge library, including all Arabic and English books and other languages, suitable for all ages, its design is quiet and comfortable, its prices are a little exaggerated compared to other libraries 💁🏻‍♀️
