In a world of all these tech books, kindle, auto books, etc. I still enjoy going to the book store, walking around, finding a book, maybe read a couple pages and buying it to bring home and snuggle under a blanket. Nothing like an actual book to read, and flipping through the pages. I never noticed and I wonder if they did it on purpose, but their horror section is literally right next to the romance section. I find it humorous. Wonder if it was planned on purpose. So many great books, and craft kits. Love that they have some seating around the Starbucks inside. Grab a drink, a seat, read a book. Relaxing, you're in your own little world and close out everything else. This Barnes and Noble is in an outdoor mall. So you can find parking all around. read more

overall, the Barnes & Noble's is a decent spot two browse and relax. It wasn't too busy when I went and the atmosphere is quite peaceful. The staff seemed polite, but weren't very proactive. Some of the more popular sections seem to be a bit picked over and understocked. The bathroom also needed to be attended to. I'd rate this location as average overall. The price is a little high too and cheaper on Amazon. read more

My fiancé & I went here a few weeks ago, and really liked it. The business/self help section they had was huge, with a whole bunch of different books to pick and choose from. I got a few books, including one by David Goggins and also a Chicken Soup for the Soul book as well (which I am enjoying reading). They also have a coffee shop inside the store too. read more

Super helpful employees, well-stocked shelves and good coffee made for a quick hour of enjoyment.

Great selection of books and gifts. The coffee shop is also great and not too busy. Staff is always friendly. My only knock would be the price, as you can find better prices on amazon. read more

I do not recommend this location. They had about 10 Nora Roberts books and about 6 Danielle Steel books. The bathrooms were HORRENDOUS. The toilets were black and there's crud about a foot up the wall. I'm not sure they've ever been cleaned. The staff were nice though. read more

Haven't been to a book store in a long time. Could not believe the amount of liberal ideology upfront and center on every shelf. Besides the fact that every book is at least $20 now, I saw nothing worth buying. I tried looking for even a somewhat conservative book and all I saw was something about how conservatives are "brainwashing youth". Right because having Obama, Kamala, gender ideology, George Floyd, and pride bs in my face isn't brainwashing at all. Ridiculous. Staff was friendly which is why I gave 2 stars. read more

I had some of the best customer service here Idk if it's was because it was the weekend before Christmas or it's normally like this but I honestly was blown away From the moment I walked it to the time I walked out the door every one there was willing to help or had something nice to say I came in for a book I placed on hold to only leave with 7 more gifts Store: easy to find, very clean Busy cafè inside Im Pretty sure it's set up like all the other franchises Restrooms: didn't make my way there Parking: a lot of parking space for the store upfront D parking as well as regular parking Customer service: amazing would drop what they were doing to help find a book or bring it to you read more

Shout out to the customer service Rep who helped me find my Stanley Tucci book. I wish I had gotten her name, she lead me to the correct book knowing that he had multiple books out. This store has greatly improved over the years by hiring staff with helpful attitudes and have a passion for books! read more

I went into Barnes and Noble today. What a relief that we can still find a book store & café. I love book stores!!

While doing some shopping at the Hill Country Galleria yesterday with my Pup I decided to stop in and look for some rainy day reading material. I new they were dog friendly but wow they are friendly! Several employees asked if they could say "hi" to my pup and even offered her a treat! The gal helping me made some great suggestions on dog reads and was super friendly and passionate about her job and reading. I ended up getting a book for my Pup - 101 Dog Tricks with great illustrations! If you bring your dog in just make sure they are well behaved and stay away from the cafe. We will be back for sure read more

Barnes & Noble - Bookstores Near Me - Bee Cave, Texas

Located right around the corner from Whole Foods is my next favorite relaxing spot - good ol' Barnes n' Noble! This one is great compared to the one in Houston. Staff were helpful and didn't mind me sitting around reading to kill some time in the evening when I just didn't want to sit around in the hotel. I ended up buying loads of obscure history-related magazines that I never would have found on the internet. read more

When I think of places I can take my son for some play time; Barnes and Noble always comes to mind. Here is some quick reasons why: Train Table for Rooster Starbucks for Rooster Sr. Superb Staff Friendly folks hanging out with their children This location is new and super clean. The staff loves to see my son make his way thru the aisles just running around saying hi to everyone. I manage the aftermath by running behind Rooster returning books to their original location. Rooster is so tired after 40 minutes of mayhem; he sleeps for two hours when we get home. Daddy sometimes gets a nap too. 4 stars for Daddy's nap and thanks to B&N. read more

A great and convenient location for parking, doing other shopping, and eating. Easy access. Great customer service and selection. Easy checkout. The B&N cafe is an added bonus. read more

I like the bookstore, but the kids in there are wild. They are running, playing ball and knocking things over. The staff don't seem to notice. The parents are nowhere to be found. Other than that, I like the bookstore. read more

Barnes & Noble is the McDonald's of my world: I know what they have, I can find one in any city, and I can get in and out quickly or stay and lounge and smile a lot. If you think about it, there's really nothing at a McDonald's that requires you to have teeth. My hood B&N is the Arboretum one, but I wound up here on Sunday afternoon because I needed a copy of the George Jung story; the Westlake B&N where I was at didn't have it, but found it for me at the HIll Country store. Cool. Whatever you think about the outdoor mall concept, this place has one great Barnes and Noble. My main comparison among B&N's is what they carry in the bargain rows, and this place is full of varietals. Easy to go broke saving money here. I don't remember whether the coffee respite was from a genuine Starbucks or a Barnes & Noble Cafe serving genuine Starbucks (how do they determine who gets what anyway?), but I do remember there's an Amy's across the fountain plaza, which always intrigues me. One final guy note: Personally, the most attractive women I've seen lately have been at Barnes and Noble: For me, it's less about the sultry tease of slow page-turning, but more of a burgeoning inner-poet ideal of women who don't alter reality with bar shots, but embrace it through awareness. Then again, maybe I'm just maturing. read more

Well, you certainly won't find any surprises at this location if you trekked out here from town, but if you are n Oak Hill or further west dweller, why would you battle Brodie Lane when you have all the same stores out here? This location is equally as nice and has all the sales the other store have. Since, Hill Country is a little on the undiscovered side, parking is easy, and it's part of the larger pleasant scene, which is Hill Country Galleria. Does anyone know why Bee Caves (pop 500) needs a city hall that big? read more

Dear mgmt, I shopped at the Hill Country Galleria location several times prior to the holidays and each time I received a feedback survey ticket. The link on the ticket doesn't work. If you go to the link found by Google, it does not list this store. I think you guys did a great job and I'd really like to give you good feedback, but there isn't anywhere to do that but here! Tkx. read more

Loved it here. It's very clean and organized. The staff are very friendly. My daughter (3yrs) especially loved the Train set. Wide selection of books for everyone, whatever your interests are. Will be coming back again! read more

Bring a pullover, sweater, coat etc. It's always chilli in here. Especially in the Starbucks cafe. It's probably to ward of the vagrants that are squatting. You may want to reconsider your shirt selection as well for those of you that are rocktit challenged. read more

Barnes & Noble - home away from home - Bookstores Near Me - Bee Cave, Texas

This review is only for the Cafe inside Barnes & Noble. The girl at the register did not know what a double espresso was and I had to explain it was 2 shots of espresso and then she asked what size? Again, it is only 2 little shots of espresso in a glass. I asked the barista if he could add just a little whipped cream to it and he said next time I have to ask for it when I place my order because whipped cream costs extra. I told him none of the other Starbucks make a big deal if I ask for it and he rudely told me they are not Starbucks, they are Barnes and Noble and they follow ALL policies. Which I knew they were just a licensee of Starbucks but jeez, he didn't have to talk down to me. But you know he was right, they are not Starbucks which is why from now on I will drive across Bee Caves and give my money to a REAL Starbucks even though I work in the Hill Country Galleria. read more

Was looking forward to a coffee and wrapping up some work on my laptop. Only two outlets in the entire cafe and when someone was nice enough to share one with me the associate working with super short hair told me I wasn't allowed to plug in my laptop. She made me sit in a chair on the other side of the cafe without a table and told me that is my only option. So with. Cord hanging over the wall I sat in a chair and finished my work. But I won't be coming back. This woman could have done the right thing and helped me with a solution. I'm really disappointed in her. read more

This is a review only of the cafe in this Barnes and Noble. I can not stand it when I get bad customer service. The barista basically told me I was an idiot when I insisted that my drink was normally made with three shots, not two as he had made it. Why would I pay $1.50 more for just some extra milk? He told me he would give me another shot of espresso for .60 to which I agreed. When I waited in line (again) to have this rung up and told the guy what I needed him to ring me up for....he said "oh, you don't have to pay for that" and basically told the guy who told me I was an idiot that he was wrong. Just a headache. I waited tables, worked in restaurants for years and know better. read more

Bookstore is always a good place for family weekend short trip. People has a coffee and wander around looking for books they are interested or go directly buy a book and sit down enjoy it a bit. The environment is quiet, spacious and organized. I am always inspired by new books. And they have bargain books shelf, usually 50% off. I always check it out and find some really good books. read more

This is a nice Barnes & Nobles. The staff are friendly and helpful. It's got a great variety of the books we were looking for, except for comics. We were looking for some Marvel comics, but all they had were DC. We've noticed that it's been all DC and another type lately. read more

I would have given this location five stars based on inventory, cleanliness, and location; however, the cashier, Camile K., was so rude to me just now. She asked if I was a member and I said I was going to skip it because I typically read books on my Kindle so that I can adjust the font size. (Sorry, eyes aren't the greatest, so sue me Camile.) You would've thought I told her I routinely crap on the sidewalk. Won't be back for that reason alone. Wow Camille you sure were rude. That's all it takes to piss you off, somebody saying they don't want to be a Barnes and Noble member? I want your life. read more

Nice store. Clean and very organized. Or much help on the floor but the lady at the register and at the star bucks were friendly. Good experience as it was our first time going to this location. read more

Barnes and Noble are sending me junk mail with no way to cease it. I have called corporate twice and this place once and received incompetent service each and every time stating that it was impossible to be removed. What a waste of money and paper and it fills my mailbox with this crap which gets overfull while away on travels. read more

Absolutely my favorite B&N of any place I've lived. Spacious and extremely friendly store; great staff. I've never felt rushed or ignored. Very nice vibe and love the selection of bargain books, especially the hardbacks - as well as new titles. Did all my Christmas shopping there last season it was so easy; great selection on non-book kids' items as well. read more
