** Also the food is really good. Especially the hot chocolate and lemon loafs
If you are a Barnes and Noble member (I believe it's only $25.00 dollars a year)- you get monthly coupons and deals as well as a promised 10% everything including food & drinks. (You also end up getting two 20% any one item in each monthly coupon book so it really does end up paying for itself.)
Pretty cool pop culture merchandise and, of course, books galore. Pleasant atmosphere to shop or hang out with coffee and your favorite / current read.
The store itself is really big, but most importantly clean. You have a cafe, a sitting center, obviously merchandise, places to read all around and staff that are always willing to help.
A good selection of books and assorted games and figures. Always have a good selection of magazines to choose from as well. Staff are helpful and knowledgeable as well, just getting a little pushy regarding their paid membership program.
Barnes and Noble is a great place to do public meetings, first time meetings and shopping or just grab a bite to eat.
As the last major bookstore it's a great place with great prices. Among the local stores this one is the biggest with 2 stories. The customer service and the variety is excellent.
However, in store warranties and returns can be a hassle. Promises for your item to be shipped out and then returned in less then five days, usually ends up being 14 or more.... so unless your returning something or using a warranty- your good.
Though things tend to be a tad bit pricer then online or your local Target, what they offer is a variety of books that you may not be able to find anywhere else locally. And as a bonus, you don't have to pay shipping when you go to the actual store. (I personally like to think of it as paying a little extra to keep a good book store open)
Another great experience at this Large bookstore. It has everything for artists to writers tools to games and of course readers!
