Love this location! The staff is always super friendly and knowledgeable. Love the Starbucks inside also. I’ve been going here for years! Love that they moved the manga to the front entrance. Always fun.

I love coming here. There is always a wide range of books and selections. Employees are always willing to help. The only thing I find out of the norm is that they do not have bags for checkout. 🤔

I love how you can just enjoy reading wherever and always expect a fantastic level of cleanliness and upkeep WITHOUT having employees come up to me and try and sell me a book or something. I love how the rotation of book placement always changes in the front and I just love this store. Always have and I suppose I always will.

Clean and very nicely organized. Easy to find what I was looking for and wonderful childrens selection. The cashier was friendly and helped us sign up for a rewards card and helped my daughter get a free cookies for her birthday. I enjoyed my trip here.

Great place to get books, bibles . If they dont have it they will get it. They have great prices. If you need help they more than happy to assist you. This is the store to get your books and other things.

Its a very good Barnes and Noble! Its big, positively atmospheric, spacious, easy to walk around and very clean! I didnt get anything or need any help so I didnt need any help with the service but they seemed competent from a distance. Inventory is fun, expansive and stretches from one part of the store to the next. Great Barnes and Noble, give it a go one day if you can!

I travel all the way from Valdosta, just for two things: Barnes & Noble and sushi. It’s such a good treat to sit down, go through magazines, books and a good strong cup of coffee.They do enforce masks.You have 30 minutes to drink/eat read until you have to move on or put on your mask. Not too much to ask for in my opinion.

Im not one to write reviews but i really thought this should get pointed out! the store has an amazing collection. i collect and read manga and there was a decent sized area for it. unfortunately, that area is directly in the path of a very huge window that lets in all the blazing hot florida light. all the manga were damaged because of this! there was so many i wanted to buy, but sadly they were all yellowed. this is bothersome for me because i collect manga. it doesnt sit right with me to buy a manga at full price when it’s damaged like that. there were two other groups there with me noting the same things so i thought it was worth pointing out….i think moving the manga and comics to a cool dark area or buying blackout curtains would prevent future selections from being damaged and bring back a lot more people as customers!

This store has a wide variety of reading material. They also carry a wide variety of other items from toys and puzzles to more sophisticated gifts. It is a great place to find gifts for all ages or a treat for yourself. I was able to pick up five different scientific magazines as a gift for a scientific friend. The employees I encountered were friendly and efficient.

The staff inside is always extremely friendly and knowledgeable. They are a great help.The selection is great, with plenty of space and lots of options for anybodys tastes.The 4 star comes from the high markup on prices. Even among other bookstores, B&N price seems to hover about $3 to $10 dollars higher.

First and last time visiting this store. Store policy of smothering yourself with a mask even while sitting ALONE. Barista informed me of their store policy AFTER I purchased a coffee beverage.I informed her I would not be back and up your customer service approach.Your brand is already struggling .... #facts

Best bookstore in Tallahassee. Especially great for those with a little curiosity but in need of a personalized adventure into all that they enjoy/seek to learn. Manager Ward has made me want to come back at least once a week; the cafe manager and I talk about the news and our own vacation fun; Kyle catches me up on all the latest info for all things books and beyond. Thank you for creating a soothing, and inviting study spot, as well as a great cappuccino!

Best Book Store and kids zone ever. My God Daughter was feeling sick and had an accident in the kids section(threw up alot). I wish i could remember the young lady and older gentlemens names but they were the ideal of customer first! She came over brought my baby ice water and she offered me kind words, ensuring me its ok and that she has 3 sons so this was nothing. Gentlemen offered his assistance and also went out of his way to check lost and found for another shirt for my baby. Profound! Thank you Barnes and Nobles for fostering quality human beings.

I love Barnes and Noble so much. The store is so quiet and perfect for a book lover. During our visit a storm knocked out the stores power, but the employees remained extremely calm and worked very quickly to get the power back on. 10/10 for my favorite store

Review №64

Everyone was super Pleasant. They had held a book behind the service counter in my name because there were only a couple of copies. The manager was incredibly personable and friendly which I dont remember being the case previously. A very pleasant change. The lady who rang me up was super friendly as well. And not to be redundant, but its true, the lady on the floor whats extremely helpful also! I only wish they still had the same amount of seating area. They used to have many comfortable chairs and they no longer do. I miss that very much. I might buy more if I were in there and able to sit down a while and look at these books thoroughly!

A nice place to sit down and read. The cafe is here but baked goods not always in stock. The organization of the books have some sort of flow but confusion depending on what you are liking for. The clearance section sometimes have good finds.

Great clean bookstore. I enjoy perusing their books and grabbing a cup of coffee from the Starbucks inside (limited menu). They also have some desserts like cheesecake to enjoy at the café and sit at one of their tables. Its a nice simple date spot. Along with books they have games to sell, and a kids section with a trainset to play with and a stage to read around.

Barnes and Noble staff always go out of their way to find whatever I am looking for. They dont just point me in the direction, they walk me over and find what I need.

Review №85

In a world of digital book histeria Barnes & Noble is barely hanging on by the skin of its teeth. Physical copies of your favorite stories feel good and smell good. Im pretty certain your Kindle and iPad just smell like your Dirty Fingers. So go to this archaic Library, purchase yourself a nice book. Sit by a window with a warm cup of coffee, play with the pages caress the cover and the Binding. Above all else, enjoy yourself.

Bought the most adorable Princess bible for my Pastors daughter. It was the best bible fpr a 7 year old princess ever. The cover was great for carrying and for her age. I found a bible for myself as well that I am planning on going back to get because it is a bit pricey, but Gods word is worth every penny.

Review №93

Very well-managed book store. A little smaller than some I have visited but does a great job in the breadth and depth of titles for its size. I shopped recently for a gift and wanted to browse new titles rather than shop online and found new recent hard cover books that were perfect for who I was shopping for. The staff are always helpful.

Love the bookstore, great place to go. Love the cafe. Only downside is most books are overpriced and they dont price match, which I understand since Im sure rent is expensive. Last time I went, there was a book with a $15 difference, compared to online prices. Great kids section, we have gone here for years.
