Reviews - What People Think About This Bookstore
-
Overall, City Bookroom is a hidden gem of a book store located in Joo Chiat road, offering a wide selection of books on Chinese, Malaysian, Singaporean, and Indonesian culture. While some customers may find the location a bit tricky to find and the store itself inconspicuous, others appreciate the unique and cozy atmosphere of the bookstore.
The owners, Wan Jing and Paul, are commended for their courage in running an independent bookshop and for their successful operation. Some customers have had positive interactions with the friendly shop owner and enjoyed the selection of books available.
However, there are also mixed reviews, with some customers feeling unwelcome due to pressure to make a purchase or encountering unfriendly service. Despite this, City Bookroom remains a destination for book lovers seeking out-of-print titles and a place for well-thought-out discussions with the knowledgeable owner.
