Good place to buy books, has a huge collection of good English and Marathi books, and some hindi too. But the collection of marathi books should be widened and I recommend a larger classics section for Marathi books. Got two books from here. Also you can find manga comic books here. Kids books, cooking, art, a lot of genres of books. All Books by Dr Achyut godbole are available here.

The shop is located in the basement so is a bit difficult to locate, but the selection of manga and marvel and DC comics is good. The staff is cooperative and the shop is clean. The prices are also not too high and you get discount as well, but not that much. You can find the same books cheaper online, if price is a concern for you. Overall good experience.

Really good collection of books but the prices are really high like more than online or other Book stores on ABC. They offer 10% discount on some books but even with that discount the prices are higher than Amazon or other online stores. Many books are started to look like old books like turned yellowish.
