A lovely bookstore! I found a box of magnets, which has 16 pieces for below 20USD. Moreover, this set of magnet is way more beautiful than those common ones. Also bought one book about trader Joe’s for my flight.

Very nice airport book store with large collection. They also have a gift wrapping station.

Best convenient bookstore. If you’re looking for funny birthday cards that won’t break the bank ($4.50), come here.

Stopped by to check out some books for my son. Had a good collection of books but couldn’t make a decision of what to buy. Will be back.

What a beautiful bookstore with such a generous inventory! With time to kill waiting for a delayed flight & a book in my carry-on I had finished hours before, I was so happy to find that Compass had a huge number of books on my want-to read list (not just the limited amount of trending/newer titles that most of the smaller book sections in airport gift stores have). If you’re looking for your next read ahead of travel at SFO, please give them a visit - they also have a store in Terminal 2!
