East West Bookshop, Mountain View

Great store of all kinds of healing things for spiritual and healing as well as books, cards, statuettes and small gifts. What is amazing is they have some beautiful cards for all kinds of occasions and reasonably priced. I buy all my birthday cards there now. I really like the stones and crystals they have there and always do a tour of them. The loose stones are very reasonably priced. The other think I like are the fountains and bowls which of course make a wonderful sound. Every visit I feel refreshed some how...

My grandmother bought me my first deck of tarot cards here. I absolutely love this store. Do many amazing items to feed your spirituality.

This place is great. The staff is really helpful and friendly. I've been here a few times, and enjoyed my visit every time, and No doubts their book collection is nice, but it's not just book store. It has many other interestingly unique gift items too.

I have lived in San Jose for 18 years, every weekend we go to a different zones of the Bay Area and one of my favorites is Mountain View, where we go for lunch, spend the afternoon drinking coffee and matcha ( me) and working online. Last Saturday after lunch my husband wanted to enter this store looking for a specific incense. What a nice surprise. I went through all the corners of the spacious place, I noticed that they have a yoga area with cushions, bowls, and another calm area in the back.
It is full of religious, spiritual, decorative objects, stones, an immense variety of new used spanish books, clothing, hats, backpacks, crystals, bags, jewelry, all kinds of incense, the classics and other new scents that I use daily to meditate (I do mindfulness) The staff is very friendly, help us to find what we were looking for and we end buying beautiful unexpected things that I need =D
I highly recommend this place for a nice pause in Castro Street.

There are a lot of great decor items in this shop. The earrings collection is also very pretty. And the staff is super helpful.

Easily agree with anybody else that says you can spend several hours here! And I don’t mean shamelessly reading books before you pay for them, but simply being in awe of the most beautiful natural things here! The stones and geodes they have here are breathtaking and the items from the far east like the high-pitched Buddhist meditation bowls are very grounding and an experience you have to try to believe. But the staff is so kind and friendly, might as well be old friends! I look forward to coming to some of their community events in the new year!

Wonderful bookstore with beautiful books,jewelry,precious stones,spiritual items,helpful employees to assist you and great place to buy lovely gifts.

Nice shop

Hats off to the book buyers and the staff recommendations! I always find something new to read - this is where to go when you want to move beyond the best seller list.

Absolutely love this place! Altogether has the best vibes of any book shop anywhere, a great variety of precious minerals, rare Earth minerals, and jewelry,

And of course a great selection in a wide variety of books...

You should bump into a gentleman named Dave behind the counter, if you happen to be lucky enough! Super courteous and kind!

One of my favorite shops. Great collection of books and cards.

Ever since I moved away, I've missed this little slice of home more than ever! Such a beautiful shop, you're instantly immersed into a calm atmosphere. Full of knowledgeable people, and gorgeous products, I haven't been able to find anywhere else like it!

I always come here to buy candles and bracelets. They have a good variety, and the staff is always pleasant. 😊

No doubts their book collection is nice, but it's not just book store. It has many other interestingly unique gift items too.

I LOVE THIS PLACE!! Each time I visit, I definitely find something that makes my soul smile which is the reason why I keep on coming back. So many cute little things from crystals to earrings to books to pens just SO MUCH! I just love the calm and serene vibe of this place too! Definitely one of my most favorite places ever ❤

I love this store! The staff are extremely helpful and sweet. When you enter you are met with positive vibes, I can spend hours there. The crystals are also affordable and they have a good variety.

This bookshop has the most amazing variety of jewelry, books, candles, clothes, crystals, yoga supplies, holiday decor (currently Halloween), and so much more. The staff is warm and helpful. If you're downtown in Mountain View, give yourself a treat and visit!

This is my go to metaphysical shop, and I often come here for the peace and beauty that can be found here. The crystal museam is stunning and I come here just to bask in the energy. Of course I never leave empty handed either! Recently I've gotten into tarot cards and I've noticed they've really stepped up their tarot and oracle card game here, with lots of diverse decks, which I really appreciate. I love how open and bright the shop is too. I've never had to wait to get in during the pandemic and there is plenty of room to browse. In addition to mystical and magical things, they have amazing gifts here too. East West is a gem and I'm so grateful to have it close to me on the peninsula!

Looking for a spiritual “book” store with jewelry, clothes, healing tools, instruments, and more… This is it! I absolutely love this shops and the people working there are lovely. Visiting is always a delightful experience and over the years I have purchased many items that have tremendously improved my life - Tigers Eye and White Jade Mala bead necklaces, beautiful earrings, clothes, scarves, candles, chimes, etc… they really have so much to offer. I usually visit this shop first anytime I’m look for a unique gift for a friend or family member. I was just there yesterday and found the most amazing Ayurvedic cookbook, 100% Cotton Mexican blanket, and a great neck and back massage tool. If you can’t tell already, I highly recommend this shop. Also, supporting our local small businesses is huge right now (& always)! I travel from Walnut Creek just to go to this shop. So if you’re in the area you should check it out!

This is the most eclectic store!! You walk in the door and Immediately feel tranquil and peaceful. you hear the waterfall in the back the beautiful peaceful music and all the objects that are so delicate and so beautiful. All the books that are about Self Help and peace and tranquillity and so many lovely scarves, handbags, candles and jewellery. It's one of the most unique stores I've ever been to! and I've been around the world and even around the country. I just hope this store always stays in business and never closes. I spent 2 hours in this store I love it!
