I had a great night spending my time there. Food was great as usual, might write more of my story there on my laptop when I get the chance too when I return.
Very clean store, staff was helpful and nice. They had a good variety of last chance items, im which my kids were able to find a toy for pretty cheap. The prices didnt reflect what they had on them, but the cashier was able to fix it quickly and without quarrel! Love b&n. Just sad there isnt one closer to me!
Love Barnes & Noble. The one near me is great. Very clean, the workers there are very helpful, friendly. I go there a lot 😊
Customer service was excellent and, of course, its always a treat to go to B&N! ❤❤❤
I come to this location for their Discounted/Clearance section. The store itself is clean, quiet, and well organized; and theyve got quite a collection of board games. I do wish they did a better job of rotating stock to the discount section, but I understand why it can take a while. The staff is also willing to barter some on discounted items, which is always a plus!
Honored to be the 1000th review of this wonderful b&n, they have such a great selection between books, music, manga, games and more! And the employees that work there are great to talk to, along with the Starbucks workers and delicious coffee/drinks!!
I couldnt find what I was looking for today, but it has been a while since Ive actually been in the store to purchase. I was displeased to find the garden section condensed to such a small size and moved so closely to the bathrooms that the interactions with others in need of the loo were inevitable and awkward. Isnt gardening a hot trend in 2021? It could have a little more space I think. Otherwise the store is always clean and the staff is super-friendly!
First time in a longtime back in person at the Barnes & Nobles. I miss the sheer smell of books and the various collections of new releases…There is a serene experience to walking in isles and enjoy seeing books after books!
Theres something comfortable about being surrounded by books. The quiet lull of people taking books off the shelves, drinking coffee, or reading through pages, always feels like home. The staff here go out of their way to assist you without being a bother.If youve never been to a Barnes and Noble its an excellent place for a first date, or a 31st date, a great spot to do homework or just to catch up on reading.
The joyful feel of browsing a bookstore...as my purchase for one of my many summer vacation readings..Summer on the Bluffs by Sunny Hostin.
I love this store and their wide selection of books both fiction and nonfiction! I even desire to work here.
Friendly staff - awesome place to buy books
My son loves to read and enjoys going here!
They need baskets !! i’m tired of carrying around all my books,other barnes and nobles have baskets but this one doesn’t.
The information lady didnt have much information. She acted annoyed at simple questions and was not showing interest in helping. She was hard to find. Mocked us for not knowing an author of a book when it was a gift for someone else and I only knew the title. I asked about another book set by the authors name and she mocked us for not having the book title. If I knew all of that, I wouldnt need an information desk.
Awesome space and great people - and lots and lots of books. A perfect place.
Great customer service. Nice atmosphere.
Good service and selection. It has a good layout for the most part. Though even before 2020 when you were actually able to sit down places the cafe tables and stools were pretty bad.
Nice store with a great toy section! Unique & special, hard to find toys!
Its Barnes & Noble! Whats not to love? Good books that are suitable for for all, and a great place to read and relax.
Ive enjoyed coming here ever since I was a child. Wonderfully curated selection of books and movies, a lovely cafe, and tasteful decor and store flow have made this particular Barnes & Noble a distinct pleasure to visit.
People slowly starting to come back in. Good to see. Everyone including staff trying to be safe as possible taking necessary precautions.
You get what you pay for. The store is very clean and well-organized. But of course Barnes & Noble pretty much is on the expensive side of bookstores. With a Starbucks cafe inside the store it makes it a nice experience to sit back and enjoy your coffee and preview some books or magazines.
I love it, just wish it had more Godzilla items.
I was visiting Lynchburg on other business & stopped by to pick up a book my child needed for school. The price was great on the book and I found two books for me at a great discount. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Masks were worn by the staff according to regulations.
Great Barnes & Noble with plenty in stock. The staff is always friendly and very helpful. Im always impressed that they have what Im looking for. Wait before buying a coffee or something in the shop until after I purchase they will give you 10 to 20% off to use in the coffee shop after you make a purchase.
I like B&N and have a membership that I renew yearly but my hubby bought me a nook for Christmas and there is nothing like kindle unlimited. And I cant find books that Ive been reading on my kindle in the B&N store.
Their books are overpriced in my opinion. The membership is only worth it if you like their coffee which I dont so...yeah.
Was great and not that busy the staff was very helpful
Its a great place for books. They have a coffee shop as well where you can sit and study if required.
Great Coffee!!!!!💯.....free WiFi!!!!👍......very friendly staff,....and OHHHH....ya gotta try the cheesecake 😋 😋😋😋
Love the layout of this store. Everything is clearly labeled and you can spend hours in here and not see everything. B&N has something for everyone at any age, they are much more than just books and cafe. The only downside for me is their overpriced media such as movies, those prices are just astoundingly high. Overall though its a beautiful store with a great layout. Ill be back for sure.
Had the Lucky Charm cookies and bought a Yahtzee game & aPlein Air magazine...all good!!! Friendly people work there too!
Nice and peaceful, great service and dont forget a Starbucks
If here don’t have it and Givens don’t have it get goin’
I just go to look at stuff and use the bathroom has halo books though 😎
Staff is friendly and everything is easy to find. Also, their coffee isnt bad and they have a decent selection.
Great prices and great selection no master what you prefer reading. Also have a great game selection for board games for all ages. You can order online or in the store if they dont have what you want in stock. Worth getting a membership too if you have a family that reads.
I needed help finding books for a member of my family. They were excellent consultants and guided me to perfect choices.
The employees are very helpful.
No puzzles but like 15 to choose from..no variety
Always clean and quiet - a fun place to be.
Seats are comfortable. Temperature in theater was exactly right for me. Employees courteous. Not too loud but I could hear everything. Only thing I wish could be improved upon was the disabled section was too close to the front of the theater. To take advantage of new effects I would rather sit further back.
This location has lots of tables and friendly staff. Ive been going here for years, minus 2020 for the most part.
Plenty of parking, lots of helpful employees, so much selection.
They have no outlets to plug in computers etc. I found one and asked if I could move a chair next to it so I could do some work. I was literally the only person there. They said I couldn’t do that due to COVID protocols lol. If you act like that, you get one star. Also, what kind of coffee shop has no outlets?
I absolutely love this place!!!
The only kind thing I can say about Barnes and Noble stores is that they still sell books. The reality is, if you are looking for well written, stirring works of literature, look at the local book stores. The technical and how-to section offers the best quality written material although often the books are poorly manufactured in China and will fall apart with use.
Nice place to do Christmas shopping with some sales going on
B&N used to be better, of course, but they are really trying to make do/survive as reading declines or turns digital. Their successes include: 1, being one of the only stores left to sell DVDs, vinyl records, and music on CD, 2, they have the classics on the shelf for cheap, 3, they have awesome board games. All three of these make todays B&N the big box nostalgia retailer. If you understand the appeal of a B&N visit, you will better understand your reactionary neighbors and fellow citizens.
This is my favorite place in the whole world. It has all the entertainment you could ever need. The starbucks is a lovely place to study or hangout with friends. Good prices and deals. Very helpful staff. 10/10
I love hitting B&Ns when Ive got time to spare and am in need of a good book. Their sales were fantastic (almost 50% off my purchase before even applying a member discount!) and the staff was very friendly. I was the only person in line at checkout, so I even had the chance to talk with the cashier about different series and get some recommendations for what I pick up next. Just a great experience with a store thats never disappointed before.
This store is very clean and the restrooms are too. The books are well organized and the selection is huge. Its worth making a trip out from Roanoke if you want a peaceful day reading books, with good customer service. Their childrens section is very large as well, and far enough away from the seating that even if a child is being noisy it shouldnt bother you.
Always a very clean store! Customer service was very helpful and helped me find what I was looking for incredibly quickly. Always a great shopping trip here!
Love this store. The staff is friendly and always helpful.
Fun fun fun, Barnes and Noble never disappoints. Great selection of books toys, games. Even the clearance items are neatly separated. You guys are great. Sorry I have no pictures but its beautiful go see for yourself.
There isnt really anything to say, its Barnes N Noble, of course its amazing, book stores are an endangered species, but Im so happy this one is still standing strong.
Our family likes to visit the bookstore every chance we get. Good selection and great staff. Best coffee around. Snacks and activities for the kids.
The store keeps its one hunned. Books are super organized, and presentable. I dont drink coffee, but the small sitting area around the Starbucks seems nice. Employees are swell, and the book selection is wonderful. Also, for those into vinyl. The selections are modest with the usual pricing. Not bad. One final thing to add, the music selection can be super interesting sometimes. Whip out google assistant, and have it listen in. Found some amazing songs randomly.
I absoulutely regret going into this store and probably never will again....disappointing
We come here regularly. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The boys enjoy treats in the cafe and time in the kids section for exploring and playing. The summer reading program is nice. They read 8 books, fill out the sheet and bring it in for a free book. My 7 year old is already working to fill his out.
Love it they have great variety of books
Love the products that the store offers. Its one of those places you can look around for hours. They have an amazing board game section to discover new games. The prices are high but the quality is good. You get what you pay for. I would recommend finding products that you like and then ordering them off Amazon to save money.
I hope you have time and patience to stand in line. The customer line was backed to the magazines, and the cashier allowed two customers to manage to hold the line up while they discussed whatever they happened to think of.I appreciate good customer service, but that includes tending to ALL customers in a timely fashion.
This place is a trap for nerds like myself. So many goodies now that they have redone the DVD sections and replace it with board games and all other collections of awesome stuff. Never had issues with this place other than the bathroom is usually gnarly. Outside of that, the Starbucks is clean and the tables are always neat.
Very friendly environment, pet friendly too! My only disappointment is that the one section I went in to browse was very small and their werent many resources there. Otherwise, its a great location.
Great selection! Can get a lot of your Christmas shopping done here in a reasonable time. Staff is always very helpful and kind. Theres a Starbucks coffee located inside as well as public restrooms. Also has free WiFi and is a great location for studying or private meetings.
Over done the social distancing in the cafe. Almost no tables set, lots out of service the could have been safely used
Love the atmosphere and of course books! They also make a tasty green tea latte!
Clean, professional, and welcoming environment for all ages. The Barnes & Noble just off Wards Road has a diverse selection of books matched with a friendly staff that provides a quality shopping experience.
A great place to find interesting new books to read! Also has a nice café area to sit and sip coffee while reading the books you just purchased in the store.
Found a couple books but not what I was looking for.
It is a cool place to sit and read or browse the books. They have a pretty wide selection for most categories, and the cafe is really nice.
This isnt one of those Advanced active Barnes and Nobles or the super large cafes or the bustle of of several college students studying away but this is a really nice when it comes to customer service finding a book or getting on ordered and and I also really love the fact that theyre concentrating more on line items for kids and families to enjoy together instead of just that large music section that they used to have
These guys are great. Price is reasonable for the books they offer here and they have an excellent selection too. I will continue to come here as my primary choice for books.
Excellent customer service, the atmosphere is always great, and I love coming here
Staff are nice, the store is clean, and has a nice atmosphere. I love their sales, its fair and helps save me some money. Plus, I love their new layout inside as well! 😍
Good selection of books. Love the kids corner where you can browse through books while your child plays with the train.The employees are helpful and will order books for you if they don’t have one available in store.
Was able to find some great gifts for 2 important people without spending over $50 bucks and got free delicious cookies for doing so. To me that was a good shopping stop.
Quiet and eventful. Peace
Found what I wanted
Really great employees! A lady showed me around and talked books with me and made some great suggestions! Worth the hour drive and i will be going back soon.
Whats not to love? Books and coffee!
Very professional and knowledgeable, good store..
My favorite chain bookstore just because of the size and overall vibe (though not as awesome as it was 20-25 years ago). Seems like theres less emphasis on books and more on music, electronics, & gifts now, which I understand because a business sometimes has to evolve but I miss the way it used to be.
The young lady that helped me at the counter was awesome And the manager you going back to find my receipt for me after I had the wrong email address linked to my account. Great to have friendly faces and helpful people when walking into a store.
Actually, it was a while back when I went there. I found those who ran it rude and curt. I am not a folder and it was my first time playing. I would never go back and most likely not pursue this past time. Grounds were maintained
For all readers of all ages!!
