BookXcess at OCBC Wisma Atria represents an innovative fusion of retail banking and lifestyle experiences, creating Singapore's most Instagram-worthy bookstore within one of Orchard Road's busiest shopping malls. Since opening in November 2022 as part of OCBC Bank's 20,000-square-foot integrated lifestyle branch, this location has redefined what a bookstore can be in the digital age.
The fourth-floor space embraces BookXcess's mission to make books affordable and accessible, offering titles priced lower than many physical and online retailers. The store's sleek, minimalistic aesthetic draws comparisons to Muji, creating an environment that goes far beyond the ordinary bookstore experience. Natural lighting, clean lines, and thoughtful merchandising transform book browsing into a leisurely activity rather than a rushed transaction.
What makes this location particularly special is its partnership with Orange Mocha Café, allowing customers to enjoy coffee while exploring the shelves or settling into a quiet corner with their latest find. This combination of books and coffee creates the perfect setting for a quiet afternoon of reading, working, or simply escaping the intensity of Orchard Road shopping.
Known internationally as the World's Best Alternative Bookstore, BookXcess delivers on this reputation with a curated selection that balances bestsellers with niche titles, ensuring every visit offers new discoveries. Operating Monday through Sunday from 11am to 9pm, the store provides a cultural oasis within the commercial heart of Singapore. Whether you're an OCBC customer enjoying the integrated banking services or simply a book lover exploring Orchard Road, BookXcess offers a refreshing retail experience.

It's a comfortable bookstore and coffee shop inside a bank. Desserts are delicious and spaces are plenty. Was there on a weekday afternoon and the crowd was just right.
