Ok. Staff were friendly but its way over-priced. Breakfast was not included and was $35 at the dinner. Queen beds are only full size. There are no common spaces for group visits and the fitness center is very small. It was clean and the shower was good.
Couldnt find it anywhere else, but they had 1 copy of the book I DESPERATELY wanted them to have, called Inner Engineering by: Sadhguru...a New York Times best seller on A YOGIS GUIDE TO JOY.....I am an intelligent man, and this man is changing the entire world for the better as we speak. Hes teaching us how get rid of hurtful, hard to deal with type of emotions that your MIND creates; and teaches you how to create inner joy no MATTER the situation you are currently in. 🙏🌌
Ordered online to pickup. When given the book was wrong. The gentleman who took care of me. He went the extra mile and beyond. He searched the stacks, back room, & called other stores until he found the book I ordered! I thought customer service like this was gone! I wish I could remember his name because he deserves have praise put upon him for his work ethic! No more buying books from other places!
I love Barnes and Noble. This one was clean and well organized. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Recommended! They have a great selection of childrens books, also; as well as vast choices of other books, also.
Great help finding the books i was looking for.Also the staff were very friendly.
The customer service representatives are always so friendly and willing to help you.
Love a good bookstore, especially with a Starbucks in it!! A win win. You can sit and read, you can meet friends, you can study, or just pick something up and walk right out.
Awesome as always. I used my gift card and picked up 4 books
Great place to study and and get work done!
Glad this place didn’t go out of business. Haven’t been to one in a long time. Remember why I love this place. I could sit for hours reading books a magazines
I had a mommy/daughter Date here with my youngest. There is a Starbucks inside. She loved it I did as well . I forgot about BOOKS electronics have gotten the best of me so this help ground me. I signed up for a card and I get 10% on future purchases you gotta pay 25$ you do get other benefits for having the card. I just dont remember.. we had fun we had tomato soup and grill cheese and proceeded to pick out books and sketch pads after .
Great bookstore with a Cafe inside, and its close to other shopping areas including the Mall of NH.
A great selection of books and starbucks onsite. They also have a great section in the back of deals on some great books. Staff is always friendly and helpful.
Great store. Updated. Great toy and puzzle selections
Excellent bookstore very very good for getting manga and the likeOnly gripe which isnt on them but corporate is there lack of price matching. Id rather support them 100 times over then Amazon, partially I can get my book right then and there and also that I like the in person shopping experienceEven without price matching I still enjoy going in and buying a volume or 2 if close enough in price to whats on Amazon or the like
Love this place, bought 4 books, had a great day there with my son
Knowledge of staff to help find what you need . Enjoy the cafe there
Love all the Barnes & Noble stores if they dont have it they can order it for pickup or delivered right to your door theyre awesome and for a small fee you get the Barnes & Noble card and it saves you lots in discounts and you get free shipping right to your house you dont even have to go back to the store who can ask for anything more. And Im always looking for like odd books that are really hard to find and theyre awesome about it.
Good selection. Has a music and movie section which you dont see in every B&N.
We can not wear mask due to health. Your employees have no knowledge about the guidelines for state of NH. She asked for a doctors which is not required. She refused to allow us in. I will not but products from a company that does not educate their employees and allow equal shopping experience to those with disabilities. It is considered discrimination. Not impressed. Went to a smaller book store and received a lot better care with out a mask. I will return there for all my books.
I found what I wanted and more. The store is always clean and the people are helpful.
Has gone way way downhill under the new owners. There is no napkin etc area and they call a manager over even if you run 5 or 10 minutes over the 30 min max.--even if there are no customers. i have spent $40,000 at this one store alone over the years and was appalled when the store manager Lori hostilely approached myself and my guest because we had run over the time limit and not realized it. instead of the young lady at the counter reminding us she called the store manager and we were publicly humiliated in front of other guests. Between myself and my friend we have spent perhaps $60-70k at this one store, We had come for coffee and a snack to help support the business. In all honesty most people i know hate the coffee and snack choices but come to support local people and jobs.
If you need or just want a book or magazine do yourself a favor and start here! A huge selection of reading material for everyone, all ages.
Our kids love coming here, beautiful, clean and with coffee 🥰 every parents dream
Excellent and knowledgeable and friendly staff. Had the book I wanted and a large selection of current titles.
I just love physical books. Coming here is so peaceful and calm. Ive found a few treasures on my visits.
Great Barnes & Noble. Very organized, and well maintained. I asked where I could find a certain book and was immediately led to the section. The woman also made sure we found the title before she left, which was nice. Friendly staff.
Great place to reconnect with books and have a delicious treat and coffee.
Nothing like it used to be but then again, what is? Found a book that I purchased so I guess thats saying something.
I was able to visit here with my older daughter. So incredibly grateful to spend the time with her in such a nice store. Staff member knew right away where to find several books she was interested in. Thank you
The place is great, its so nice to still have a book store in todays world. Everyone is helpful, plenty of parking, I love this place
Huge selection of books, limited selection of videos. I noticed video prices were high. I dont know who operates the cafe. I didnt eat there so I have no opinion of thier food.Update: Valentines Day, 2021; Brought my kids. They looked at the videos, toys and childrens section. Store seems more spaced out than my last visit. Bathroom was in good shape. Facemasks required.
B&N is my happy place! I LOVE books, but theres so much more. My home B&N (Warwick, RI) has a Starbucks inside and the staff is great! There are also TONS of interesting gifts to review/purchase. Highly recommended!
A place where dreams come true... 😂
One of the best places to buy Manga, I collect Manga and this place has a huge selection of it! Also there Art book section is big as well! Great quiet atmosphere and employees dont bug you about sales! Which is always nice!
Staff are always helpful and nice.
Good place to look for books and helpful people
Needed to get a birthday gift for my daughter she loves to read. Got her a gift card and now she can get whatever she wants
Massive selection, clean and organized well.
Typical Barnes and Noble. Wasnt able to find a copy of the NYT, but got everything else I wanted.
Very friendly and helpful staff
Super helpful staff. Found two books in the Soul eater series that were otherwise difficult to locate.
The woman at the customer service desk was helpful and informative, as well as funny. They had lovely collectables and puzzles that a added to my order. My cashier was kindly and we discussed my choice of book before I left. I think she may read it.
The staff waa very helpful in all my needs
Great as usual. Love the book anax. Employes always helpful and knowledgeable.
Great choice to get the family out for a bit of social distancing while finding new reading materialfor everyone!!!!!
Employees are always pleasant and helpful.
Its great to actually have a bookstore that doesnt feel so parochial... You can chill, browse and actually enjoy books as they were meant to be read like! 👍 You gotta check it out!!👌🙃🕉️🙂
Its a book store, they had books and magazines. 👍
To much of a change couldnt find what I needed
Always a great find in B&N
I love coming here, you want a book in particular this is the place you want to come to and the staff here are very nice and will take their time to help you find what youre looking for!
Spent 2 hours here today after having a bad morning and it was so lovely. I love this place. Honestly one of my favorite Barnes & Noble locations. I do wish the staff were more friendly though.
Great selection, very friendly staff.
Great store. Nice selection, friendly staff, and super clean.
The store is way expensive for any and everything, probably owed to its massive square footage
Its great to have a local bookstore to browse and shop for new books. Im not a fan of their policy which offers separate pricing for online and in-store. If youre a B&N member, they will price match the online prices... only if you ask them. Some of the staff are true bibliophiles and happily offer advice when Ive been on the fence about a certain book or looking for a new book to read.Be sure to buy local, even if the pricing is slightly higher than on online only retailer.
Instructions unclear, ate all the paperbacks
A great place to go any day of the week, be it a rainy day, cold day or a hot day, theres usually some place for everyone to sit. And if theyd want to have some cocoa and piece of cake or pie while reading a magazine, or a long awaited first edition, N.Y. Best Seller; everything is here for you to relax and spend an hour or two or the day with your children or family and friends. Theres even a childrens area for your little ones to immerse themselves in a whole bunch of fun!
Its a bookstore but they also sell a variety of gifts and have a cafe in store. They were sold out of the book I was looking for but willing to order more.
Consistently excellent both in price, options, as well as safe practices and assistance. Glad they are there helping us spend our quarantine productively with great books and music!
Cashier and customer interface is paramount. Little things like asking if someone would like a bag or neglecting to ask may seem trivial or maybe not...
It was busy afternoon and the cashiers were very affluent. I love going there!
Great selection of books, but a bit over priced
Everyone is masking up and social distancing as best as possible. This is a good place.
Super friendly staff, and I just generally love bookstores.
Love Barnes + Noble. Yes, hardcover books can be pricey, but I want the joy of holding an actual book.
Well stocked store, but not the book I was looking for. Full of gift ideas.
Love just browsing, but sitting down with a book is amazing too.
One of my favorite locations of this chain. Wonderful staff. They are so nice. My mom orders books all the time. So wonderful.
Pogchamp. Books are nice these books are nicer
Barns & Noble is a great place to find any kind of book or if you are looking for a notebook/planner/organizer and some pens/pencils. They even have a section for kids which is just great! They also sell toys so if your looking for the perfect birthday present for someone.
Had a good experience, service on floor is good, young lady saw me looking in fantasy isle l, said thats her favorites and can help if I got questions. Over all very good got what I came for.
Very good experience. Friendly staff and overall relaxing atmosphere.
Beautiful store
Books books books get your books here
Bright, cheery and staffed by people who clearly love reading. I am always curious what is new in the store, and spend my first few minutes in there at the customer service desk finding out. They are always patient and helpful.Rather sad they dont do reading electronics any more, but there is nothing like the smell, feel and weight of a book.
Unlike other bookstores in the Central area. B&N usually has the book(s) that I want in house. Also if I order a certain book I get it faster. Customer service is great. If that person doesnt have the answer they will find another person that does. They may be a big box stores but I am happy to shop there.
Very inviting atmosphere. Quiet, clean, and well stocked. Definitely going back
Opens at 9 for seniors, can shop in at the Manchester store, quiet, clean...a refreshing experience after quarantine...so glad they are hanging in there
I never knew they had so many toys and games!! Their POP collection is great but the awesome service was Amazing! Thanx for making my holiday easier!!
I wish I got the name of the young woman that helped me because, if you were not a reader before meeting her, you would be after. Her enthusiasm and knowledge was just awesome. I came in looking for a Greek mythology book for a younger reader to be given as a gift (with one in mind that my daughter and I had found through internet search)and she politely showed me where I could find it but told me to wait because she wanted to show me a Greek mythology book, not in that section, that she absolutely love[s]. Percy Jackson Greek GodsShe told me all the reasons why she loves this book with joy and excitement. I took her advice (enjoyed a quick, humorous chapter while I was there) and it was a big hit... and the little girl is now on to more books in the series!**I never submitted this review and wish I could say the latest trip there was as awesome- I had to take away 2 stars, sadly... before I felt that 5 was not nearly enough. That young woman from my previous trip was what customer service should be and the embodiment of how everyone should feel about their job!! Seriously. And, I had another helpful employee guide me while shopping again over this last weekend that was excellent, friendly and genuinely interested in helping.What is lacking here is the service at the checkout. The young woman barely looked up, seemed bothered by my sons enthusiastic hello and just generally unfriendly and unhappy to answer any questions. There seems to be a running theme of helpful employees on the floor and the others run the registers-- a good choice, if that is a decision that needs to be made, but it definitely takes away from a pleasant experience when the person checking you out makes you feel like you are a burden on their life. But, fortunately, for now, the hardworking and enthusiastic employees on the floor (and the beautiful store filled with books!!)are making up for it and not moving me to online ordering ...yet!! :)
We are card carrying members! We always get excited to go to Barnes and Noble. We always come out with a new book right for each one of us. The kids section is great and you feel like you are in a library. They have an awesome help desk person who helps us find books often. We get snacks and hot cocoa at the cafe. Its a nice cozy place to hang out with your kids, small ones or teens!
The only game in town for books so 5 stars based on their tenacity to hang in there. Chairs and seating could be more comfy. Access to coffee is a plus.
Always helpful staff willing to look up and locate books. Cafe serves good coffee and delicious food. Today a young woman played music for awhile and then another sang. Both quite pleasant and a holiday surprise. Store is wonderful. Register area a bit confining but otherwise store is a great stop and who doesnt like a gift certificate for a gift.
Great local book store would recommend
A nice Barnes & Noble. Not as large or well-stocked as some of the newer and larger stores but a nice place to stop. Staff is friendly and helpful. Only downside is that parking can be challenging at busy times at this location.
Love the selection of $8 books
Clean place, but unfortunately theres never anyone working there if you need help. Also kinda overpriced. Id rather go to the library or a used bookstore or Ebay.
This is a place I can spend all day without any help bothering me unless I ask. The perfect place. It has plenty of places to sit and real also.
No upstairs like the one in Salem, NH but it does have a cafe and a large selection of books. The staff was extremely helpful in helping me find what I was looking for.
Wonderful service, staff was very knowledgeable and helped me find exactly what I needed.
Great place
Books! Books! Books as far as the eye can see! Red books, blue books. Fiction books, true books. Funny books, sad books. Kids books, Dad books. Books indeed. And magazines.
I was looking for books for an almost 5 year old boy and asked to see their dinosaur collection. These staff were very helpful and showed us a number of books. We settled on a somewhat informational book and a shorter book for bedtime reading. We were very satisfied with the assistance we were given.
I may have a Kindle and yes I enjoy reading a downloaded book but I still love walking into a book store. B & N makes me happy every time I stop in. I walk up and down the rows of books and Im swept away..I know its a chain and that all the stores are cookie cutter but thats what makes it so easy to shop in.
This review is for the cafe. Just stopped in for a coffee and the young woman who assisted me was great. She was quick to take my order, was pleasant and personable and made a great cup of coffee.
Well stocked and helpful staff, and they have a small selection of vinyl records. Wish they had longer hours for those of us who like to peruse and wander through the stacks..
I love book
