Located at Level 1/131 York St, Sydney NSW 2000, Galaxy Bookshop operates as a book serving Sydney in New South Wales. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

Shops in Australia display fixed prices that include GST, and consumer law gives you the right to a repair, replacement or refund when goods are faulty, so keep the receipt. Larger stores post their returns policy at the counter; independent shops set their own terms, so ask before buying if you are unsure. Most retailers accept tap-to-pay, and many now charge a small card surcharge.

Opening hours are published for 1 day a week. On most of those days it is open 9 am–5 pm. Hours in Australia do change around public holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (02) 9267 7222. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a mobile. More information is available on its website, abbeys.com.au.

On Google it holds a rating of 4.5 out of 5 from 118 reviews, which is a strong result for a book in Sydney and suggests consistent service.

Sydney is in New South Wales, on Australia's east coast, where summers are warm and humid, winters are mild and businesses keep to standard hours year-round with the usual public-holiday changes. Australian addresses list the street number, suburb, state abbreviation and postcode, and Sydney follows the same pattern; a number like 2/411 means unit 2 at number 411. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.
