It’s cute and small, 2/4 Starbucks, 1/4 temple merchandise and 1/4 Barnes and nobleIt’s one floor, but a good size. There’s loads of places to sit with your laptop and plenty of outlets as long as your near the wall

Fabulous place to get away and study, read a book, meet with friends, colleagues, or just take a breather with self. Coffee, snacks, books, Temple attire all here. The staff is pleasant. I recommend this place!

Not a big selection on books as i thought it would be, still its worth it to give a look around to see if you find something you like.!

If youre a temple student is the best store to go to get your books. The reason why is because Barnes and Nobles Temple store has a lot of books first temple students. However the store isnt just for people who go to Temple, they have other books are too. They have manga new books like the Harry Potter books. And many more other books as well, they also have other stuff besides books.So go check out the store you will have fun.

Make no mistake, this is more a university bookstore than an actual Barnes and Noble. Thats not a bad thing in my mind. However, I was surprised by the small size and very limited selection of things. On top of that, stuff was priced high when I was there. Nothing much of use to me here.

Great spot for books and coffee right in the middle of Temple. Not a ton of books as its more of a book store for Temple Law. But all the best sellers are there. Plenty of Temple swag and a decent seating area for perhaps 80 people.

Hey nice convenient spot to do your book shopping and get your coffee. And get all your temple gear. Plus theres a public bathroom which is always a big plus.

Review №15

This a satellite store, and lacks much of what a typical BN would stock. The store allows mentally unstable persons to roam the store freely, making noises. I know they think its showing empathy by not sending them away, but its very distracting to paying customers.

Its in a nice environment and there text books is too pricey,other items and they should of left the name alone as Temple Bookstore instead of Barnes and Noble. And treat their student workers and employees right and fair. And stop racial profiling students and other people that come in there and bullying other workers especially when they been their longer.

I USED to like this place. Mostly sit in here to study and the staff is okay, usually a bit tired but thats understandable. Today however, a manager taking my order made fun of what I ordered RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME? She laughed about it to another employee So rude and unprofessional..

Wide open spaces right near Temple. Was a great respite (with some cell phone recharging) after a recent political rally for this out-of-towner. Bus stop and SEPTA (subway) right outside!

It’s nice. I’m there often to do work and there’s always spot for electrical outlets (no guarantees though)

Review №21

When it is good it is very good, and when it is bad you wait over 15 minutes to get a frozen sandwich or raw dough in your stuffed pretzel. Beware the start of new school years when all the workers seem to be new and clueless.

They should change the hours. The website says 7am, the door says 730am, it is close to 8am and the door is still locked. Hope it opens soon, I need my textbook before work for class tonight.

Prior to moving to New York, Whitten considered being a musician. At Dunbar High School in Bessemer, Alabama, during the mid-fifties, I played in the marching band and in the local dance band, he said. I even made a few pennies and seriously considered music as a career. Coming to New York in the late fifties changed all that. I met John Coltrane, Thelonious Monk, Miles Davis, Kenny Dorham, Ornette Coleman, and many others in jazz. I was forced to reevaluate my caliber of talent. There was no way I could compete with what I hear. Out went the saxophone, in came Windsor & Newton, Old Hollad, Blockx, Grumbacher, Bocour, Liquitex. It was the right think to do.Lol they turned him off of music. If only someone had turned George Bush off the presidency like that we might have a really awesome portrait artist instead of a never-ending war in the Middle East. Smh

I asked to pay them with my Starbucks saved card and the barista was very rude stating we don’t take Starbucks cards since we’re not a Starbucks. Hence I bought nothing the sale never took place. I have about six dollars left on my scanned card.
