    Cookbooks galore!
    Karen V.

    This B&N store is huge! I've never been to one that has 2 levels with escalators. I would have given it 5 stars if it had more seating throughout the store. All I saw was a tiny area near the Starbucks café. I entered through the back near Red Robin. It was great browsing through the DVD, CD, and vinyl collections. I think I spent most of my time in that section. I was curious to see what was on the second floor. They had lots of children's books and the biggest collection of cookbooks that I've seen in one place. They have huge sections of magazines, greeting cards, and gifts as well. I'd go back just for the cookbooks and DVDs. The café had many baked goods that looked wonderful. More than any other Starbucks that I've been to in the past. They had this peanut butter cup cookie that I wanted to purchase, but the line was long and it was time to meet up with my friends for lunch. However, it was great to see a B&N thriving. Sometimes it's just nice to physically thumb through a book before buying it versus online browsing. This bookstore was a cool find. I know it has been a part of the Shops at Wiregrass for a very long time, but it felt newish to me. I guess they are keeping it up very well. They just need to add more seating for those who want to read a few pages before making a purchase.

    Great selection here! Good Starbucks too! I needed help finding books a few times here and there staff was very kind and gave good advice too! This is one of my favorite stores in the area!

    A very friendly location for the local book worm to read, relax, and rejuvenate. This Barnes and Nobles supplies an abundant selection of favorites, with a Starbucks cafe providing any snacks you may need while shopping. If only this location had more seating options as well as charging stations, this cafe/bookstore would not only invigorate your curiosity, but make for a cozy space to enjoy.

    Nice and clean environment !! Was able to get some work done. Wish there was more seating and charging stations though. Starbucks was clutch!

    Looking forward to reading this

    I am heading out soon for a road trip and needed a new book. I love shopping for books where I can touch them and see if I will enjoy them as I like to look for new authors to try. When entering Barnes and Noble, there are signs to where masks and hand sanitizer available. As you walk around the store, there are table for you to place the items you touch that you do not wish to purchase and signs reminding customers to social distance 6 feet. I love the fantasy section as I have always been obsessed for witches, wolves, and vampires. Today, I grabbed the Patrica Briggs Alpha and Omega series on werewolves. I usually read Paula Brackston series on witches. Briggs books sounded interesting and Barnes and Noble had a nice selection of her different series she has written. Of course the books I did not want, were placed on the quarantine table. At checkout, they are providing opportunities for social distancing. The staff was pleasant who I came into contact with.

    I love coming to Barnes and Noble and just relaxing. I usually grab a drink from the Starbucks located inside the store and find a spot to chill. It's usually super busy on Friday nights, but otherwise it's nice. And I love shopping in the bargain priced sections for cool new books or sudoku puzzle books. The employees are pretty helpful when you need assistance finding something specific.

    I really like this bookstore because they have all kinds of different media and a great selection!…read moreThe books are well organized and they have a nice selection of dvds and records as well. There is also a coffee shop and some seating inside, which I did not partake in on this visit but it's a nice added touch! I also sold some books/media here and the process felt a bit unorganized, but I got a decent amount of cash for my items. Be prepared that it will take a few hours, even if you get there right at 10am, but you can leave and come back or stay and shop around. They also give both a cash option and a store credit option, with the store credit amount being slightly higher. Overall a nice feature in a great shop!

    Air-conditioned! Thankfully, considering the intense heat on this side of FL…read more Good stock - a good selection of new and used books and vinyl. Definitely have everything a new collector might want but may not have the deep cuts a long-time collector (like me) would be looking to purchase. Prices - a tad high. But I expected that considering I'm in a metropolitan area. Their rent is probably super high, but I don't mind paying an extra $2-3 per book to keep an independent store open. Regarding those deep cuts: - I did find some authors that I think are often overlooked, including Richard K. Morgan, Chuck Tingle, and Ann Leckie. - I was saddened to see that there was no Ronald Malfi in stock, which I find to be a mainstay in horror. - There was no Between the Buried and Me vinyl in stock, which saddens me due to concert tonight (that's why I drove all the way to this coast). Rating - 4.2/5.0

    I really like the staff here. Everyone is so knowledgeable about the different books and magazines…read more I recently needed a cookbook and I couldn't find it on the shelf. So they told me where to look and assured me they had two copies. I just found it and he came over to check that I did. I love the selection this store offers and I love to browse. I especially like looking at the magazines. You never know when magazines won't be available anymore. I am part of the millionaires club, so I save a few bucks here and there. It pays for itself. They also give you coupons when you sign up every year. I really like this location.

    FAM TRIP TO BAM!!!…read more We went for their 50% holiday sale, there were maybe 20 books that we found in a very small section and we did not find any of them of interest. Walked around store was clean, but we did find certain authors in multiple areas, but the books were the same. After looking around for a while we could not find any of the books that we were looking for, even if they were not on sale. We asked a BAM employee about a certain book and they sent us to the back of the store to find the same books from the same author, not the one we were looking for. Went back to the front and asked if they could look it up in the system and they did not have it. The clerk was very nice and customer friendly, hence the 3 stars for the interaction we had with her. After looking the books up online to compare with the price if we ordered through BAM, we found it to be cheaper to purchase them online. We love going to the book store, but it seems to be getting harder and harder to find books at a lower or comparative price to online pricing and availability. We will still be going back, but maybe not so much as we have in the past just based on pricing.

    I was really disappointed by my experience recently because I had actually recommended this…read morerestaurant to the other guests with me, who had never been before. I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich with an over-hard egg, while another guest ordered the same sandwich with an over-easy egg. When our food arrived, the over-easy sandwich was correct, but the sandwich placed in front of me had an over-medium egg with a runny yolk instead of the over-hard egg I specifically requested. I always make a point to clearly ask for a fully cooked egg because I cannot tolerate runny yolks. I politely called our waitress over and explained what had happened. I told her that the sandwich in front of me belonged to the other guest, and that the sandwich they had received appeared to have been intended as mine, except the egg was still runny and wasn't cooked over hard as ordered. Rather than listening to my concern, she responded in a very condescending manner and insisted the order was correct and that we simply needed to switch plates. I explained that switching plates would not solve the actual issue--the egg itself had not been cooked as ordered. She eventually took my sandwich back to have it remade, but after that interaction she rarely checked back on our table for the remainder of the meal and seemed to avoid us entirely. I never raised my voice or made a scene; I simply wanted the food I ordered prepared correctly. Mistakes happen in any restaurant, and I am completely understanding of that. What was most disappointing wasn't the kitchen error, it was the dismissive response to a reasonable request and the lack of service afterward. Since I had spoken so highly of this restaurant beforehand, it was embarrassing to have my guests experience this as their first visit.
