A wonderful and much needed Chinese stationery, art supplies, and book store in a easy to access shopping plaza. If you love stationery with Chinese and Japanese flavor then this is a must! Nothing like this store for hundreds of miles. The staff and owners are very nice and provide a level of customer service you just do not find much anymore.

Every time I come here, the tea is always so flavorful and fragrant. In addition, the workers are so kind and helpful and do a great job at maintaining social distance and enforcing people wearing face masks. They have a great selection of stationary, snacks, teapots, and chinese books.

How I never been here? I frequent the food court and Family Baking in the same complex all the time but would always shy away thinking that this bookstore only sold Chinese books. This store has books but also so many other things! They have beautiful stationary, a small (but pristine!) selection of snacks and groceries, books, small wares and more. My intention was just to stop in for a few minutes while waiting for a food order from the food court but ended up spending almost an hour chatting with the lovely store owner and flipping through all the cute stationary! Really well-curated store that you can tell the owner is excited and proud of.

My mom and I went to this bookstore about a week ago and it was such a great experience! Everyone was extremely helpful and accommodating. I was able to pickup some stationary I needed for class. Great Social Distancing practices inside which I really appreciated! I definitely will be going back!

I love this book store. Not only do they carry lots of cute stationary and calligraphy supplies, they have really created a pleasant atmosphere. The store owner, Yvonne, is super friendly and helpful. We always stop by whenever we are in the area.

UPDATE: During the late summer after COVID travel restrictions were lifted, I visited this store. Wow! Tranquil, knowledgeable. The owner took time to explain books and calligraphy supplies. She had other customers also. She made each feel welcomed. I bought gifts for my son for college acceptance and he LOVED everything. It was worth the long drive (3 1/2 hours with traffic). This place is my new staycation trip. Thank you!!Just heard about your small shop on Georgia public broadcasting radio. We live 3 and a 1/2 hours away but we will make a special day trip to help support your business. And thank you for staying the strong.

I went in to get some basic supplies to begin practicing Chinese calligraphy today. They have a beautiful calligraphy and art section. The ladies were incredibly helpful and extremely sweet. They went over everything that I might need (in English since I do not speak a Chinese language) and set me up to try some brushes. It is a very welcoming space and charming store. The prices also seemed absolutely competitive with what I saw online. Looking forward to going back when I need to upgrade or get more supplies. Maomi is in the Chinatown Mall so you can head to the food court and get some delicious eats after you shop.

A very different and unique place for Atlanta and a good representation of Chinatown! Yvonne is an amazing owner who was very kind! You can see the Exuberant chandeliers from the outside adding to the wow factor to the store. When you walk in its the same feeling as when looking from the outside, very pleasant. If youre in the Atlanta/Chamblee area definitely recommend stopping by and visiting, you wont be disappointed.

This place is where you need to go for Chinese literature. Theyve also got some really nice MaJiang (麻将)sets that are absolutely gorgeous. I should also add that the store owner is very, very helpful. She didnt have a book I wanted, but she went as far as ordering it from China and having it shipped here, and then still didnt charge me very much for it. Ive been very impressed with this place and hope you take a look around. Enjoy!

The environment in this bookstore is welcoming and cozy and the workers match that attitude! This store is stocked with books for all ages and a great selection of teas. The bookstore also hosts a bilingual Childrens Storytime roughly once a month that sounds great!

A nice Chinese bookstore with a tea shop. The owner is very helpful in finding you the right tea. You can order a cup of tea or purchase tea to brew at home. They do sell tea pots and cups plus accessories.

I’m sure this is a good store, but am slightly disappointed that this store only carries Chinese books and not other types of Asian language books... not even one copy. Looking for Vietnamese.

I went to Chinatown and found a wonderful place.It is a nice place to sit and drink coffee and tea.Yvonne, the master of the house,When Shane tea is famous in TaiwanThe price is also good, $ 1.95.Later, I asked about the taste and it was kind of oolong tea.It costs $ 68 a bottle,Good cars are originally expensive.It takes time to see a cup of tea or something.It is a good day to find a very nice place to have a cup of tea quietly.Even though it was a bookstore, I also sold several cups and writing instruments.When you come to Doraville ...
