Elephant Bookstore

Must to see for your alternative shopping in Sofia. Modern gifts and souvenirs related to the communist period. Special mention to the friendly guy who welcome you and share incredible secrets about the the story of the country. 5 stars!

What a great shop! Maybe not the most well assorted bookstore but this must be one of the most cool shops in Sofia!
The owner/ salesman was so sweet and charming! If you lack of ideas for gifts, this is a must store! You find so cool things!
Or if you are a huge fan of Harry Potter, here you can find items with signature!

If you are Harry Potter fan you must visit. Beautiful shop not that big but the atmosphere here is so nice, full of the products you can choose. Easy to find. I recommend.

i definitely loved this place! the atmosphere and everything!! the only negative comment would be the aisles are too narrow and the store is pretty tiny, as its usually crowded its kind of hard to actually do a proper browsing.

My favourite shop in Sofia!! It’s perfect for fans of Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Marvel, puzzles, books, and so much more. You can easily find the perfect gift for a loved one here.
The staff, the vibes, the atmosphere are all excellent! If you’re in Sofia, it’s definitely worth checking out!

This place has wonderful ideas for presents, lots of merchandise for Harry Potter, Friends, Star Wars, and others. Many antique paper items (newspapers, posters, cards, etc.) can be found there as well.
The people who work there are always very helpful and talkative.

A beautiful place with so many rare, collectors items from popular books/movies full of magic and wonder. Kind staff who are passionate about their job. You shouldn't miss this store when visiting Sofia, especially if you're a Potterhead :)

Small but very cute bookshop. It is just one room - the pictures make it seem bigger than it is! Lots of Harry Potter things which was fun because I had just rewatched most of the movies and was gettint nostalgic. Nice atmosphere with some things you won't find anywhere else.

Such a great paradise for book lovers! great gift ideas and perfect to go there, if you are searching for something special. Also the interior is fascinating. The stuff was amazing! Loved it!

An amazing (book)store. Full a little nice things and books. You can find rare things and really eccentric stuff!

And the owner is really really friendly 🙃

Even if you don’t need anything. Just step in.

It's been a while since I was here.. Nothing's changed and everything has changed! When I entered I got the same feeling over me as the first time. A feeling of wonder and aw... The still have an amazing collection of books and just like before... So many things to discover!!! The 2 amazing ladies that were there, Tsvetina and Adela are present and ready to help. Yet not pushy and giving you the freedom to explore. Thank you Tsvetina , you made the experience a delight!! Hope to meet you again soon

One of my favorite bookstores in Sofia. Here you can find unique gifts, very rare books, vinyls. For example you can order Playboy or National Geographic magazine from specific date - for example your birthday. It’s a great idea for birthday gift. There are a lot of stuff for Harry Potter’s fans. I’ve got Gryffindor notebook.

Beautiful cute little shop with lots of books and pop culture gems. The owner was really sweet and kind 💜

I've been a client of Elephant for the last couple of years and I always return when I can. I cannot recommend them enough! Great variety of pop culture books, games, toys and memorabilia. Vintage, amazingly preserved editions of comics, books and magazines. Gifts for every taste and person. 10/10

I met the most utterly lovely, helpful and chatty staff in this gem of a bookshop. Knowledgeable about their stock and enthusiastic about the books they sell.

There aren't many elephant products, but what they do have is fun and interesting. Products in English, like if Barnes and Noble was condensed to just be the fun stuff.

We ordered online from "Elephant Bookstore" an unconventional gift for our family friend who loves games, incl. card games. When we opened the box, we were pleasantly surprised by every detail inside, the content, packaging, incl. a compliment - a whole package of cards, made in Bulgaria, with uniquely fresh design. The gaming cards and dices are great and suitable for an adventurous game atmosphere. We highly recommend "Elephant Bookstore" to surprise a friend.

Unique place with magical atmosphere 🧙🏻‍♂🪄
It’s excellent place where you can buy gifts especially for Harry Potter’s fans 💫
I bought 2 coffee mugs 9 3/4 for my daughters and they like them very much ❤

Had a great time looking through their collection - they have some of the most exquisite Harry Potter memorabilia and quite a few eccentric book titles!

Good recommendations and selection of books as well as a very pretty bookstore!
