The staff are always helpful and are able to track down almost any title youre looking for, but the best thing about this B&N is that it is so well laid out that you are never struggling to find anything anyway. Their selection is unrivaled by any other bookstore in the area *cough* Shops at Riverside B&N *cough* Their board game section is packed to the rafters with quality games for all ages, some that are hard to find elsewhere. I am always surprised and impressed by the board game offerings here. And the sales annex is stuffed a massive selection of reviewer/remainder copies and used books galore for a reasonable discount. Ive been shopping at this B&N since I was a kid and will always travel the extra miles to shop here over going somewhere closer to home.

This is a very big and awesome store!! If they did not have what you are looking for, no one would have it. Very clean and well organized.

The store was empty when I visited the other day. Clean. Great for browsing the “new book” sections and with plenty of seating in the cafe to enjoy a quiet, long break. Employees are always happy to help and even walk you to the book you are looking for. Happy Reading!

You are spoilt for choice with the book variety. The place also has a very peaceful and welcome ambience, even those who are physically challenged can move around easily. It also has a nice cafe where one can sit and snack.

So far...so far, the biggest B&N weve been to. Is 2 stories, the 2nd with mostly music, although there were some art books there to.The first floor has all categories of books as well as a Starbucks past the escalator.Past that, there is a room for older as well as rare books not for show but for sale. Here you will also find autographed copies of rare and more common books. This is my favorite section and what a gift for someone special!

Review №34

It’s great to find a book store. And this is a very large one. Great kids book area with toys. We were looking for “Lassie Come Home” to match a plush collie toy. They didn’t have it. The few staff that were there were trying hard to help many customers and were able to help me. I found an alternative- “Biscuit” he is a plush toy that had books about him, and they were for pre-readers - perfect! The staff girl was very helpful, showing me all of the different Biscuit books.The coffee/cafe is great.

Such a HUGE SELECTION of books, much more than other Barnes and Nobles I’ve gone to. The staff is helpful when searching for specific books and a quick check out. Great store to wander... could have used more seating to check out the books closer (but probably adhering to COVID guidelines).

Nice selection of books. Staff was friendly and helpful.Pricing is good I think. I did not try the cafeteria so not sure how it was. It was not busy. Books organization for higher grades could be better. Ive been to other B&N who I found were more organized.

Ive been to a hand full of Barnes and nobles stores and of all of them this one is my favorite.The Starbucks section has spacious tables wide enough to actually have two laptops and a cellphone on one table. Ample tables and chairs which can be brought together. Like always Starbucks is part of Barnes and nobles and their points/rewards system not actually Starbucks.2 floors. Free WiFi.It does get a bit chilly after some hours of sitting might want to consider bringing a second layer.
