Paper Plus Meadowbank is a book and stationery store on the corner of St Johns Road and Gerard Way in Meadowbank. Paper Plus has been locally loved since 1983, and each store is independently owned. The shelves cover books, stationery, toys, board games and gifts, with a children's range, and the store also has a post shop and KiwiBank services under the same roof. The website highlights New Zealand and Pacific art, architecture and photography titles, and books for children and young adults that have won New Zealand book awards.
Customers mostly describe the store as well stocked and easy to browse, and a go-to for a quick present or something for the kids. The post shop comes up often, and one visitor who had lost their local branch in Remuera found the staff helpful when posting a parcel. Not every visit has gone well. One customer was disappointed with a printing job, and some report rude staff. Our pick in Meadowbank for a quick gift and a post stop in one trip.
