Just moved here to Peoria & was so excited to see they had a nice Barnes and Nobles with the cafe &…read moreall our favorite treats. Two or 3 times a month I make a trip for magazines and at least 1 book, after hitting up this cafe a couple times I quickly realized they over cook most of the items at this cafe, I really wish they would fix this. Dried out cup cakes over cooked hard cookies, these little treats aren't cheap so It would be nice if they were prepared with care and they didn't serve over cooked goodies. So disappointing, one day I spent $25 in this cafe on chocolate cupcakes and some sugar cookies, was disappointed as soon as I heard the kids say these cookies are hard as a rock. Thinking this was a one off, I tried again a week later and same thing. I mentioned it to the cashier on our last visit, I hope they take the time to make some changes & not take the customers money for bakery items that aren't prepared properly and probably shouldn't be sold.

They would actually pull it on the computer, tell how many the store has in stock and helped me find what I was looking for instead of lying about it, saying they had no in stock, and asking if they could pre-order me something different for next time Instead. The Fairview Height, IL can't even compete with how great this store location! Great customer service!

Review Visit: March 11th, 2015…read more Thankfully they don't sell defective Acme comics.... wait, that sounds familiar. Yep, another Acme Comics post for my blog. This one is fortunately still open and is no way related to the Acme Comics in Normal, IL (which has closed recently). I am bias towards this store as I have been here many times. This store is my first place to scope out used video games. They don't have a large selection of current generation stuff, but they do have a lot of 'retro' games. Think NES, SNES, N64, PS2, Gameboy and the like. Everything is moderately priced, if not sometimes lower/higher than market value. But it's a locally owned business, so I don't mind paying a few more dollars to support a great shop. Since their inventory shifts, there is usually always something new to see when I go in. Lately, I have been getting old GamePro, Nintendo Power, Tips & Tricks magazines for $2 a piece. Talk about a nostalgic trip. They offer a large selection of CDs but they seem to be shying away from those in the more recent years. I believe they also do have vinyl and music dvds as well. I used to purchase a large amount of cds back in the day when they had 4/$10. Still reaping the benefits of that today with a massive music collection. Moving on, this place is a Comic shop first and foremost. While they do sell other things, obviously, I am betting the comic book scene is the bulk of their customers. One of my friends alone has a massive pull list there. I don't know much about comics, but they offer a wall of new arrivals as well as your $0.50 comics. The staff can be a bit inattentive at times, but they never seem bothered when you ask them for help. All in all, a pretty great local shop.

This is a used bookstore that is very reasonably prices at $3 for paperbacks and $5 for hardbacks with a few other prices in between. They do game nights and have board games spread throughout the store. I really enjoyed having D20 die to figure out a drink because I happen to be very indecisive when there are lots of choices. We ended up a red wedding (17) and a stygian jungle night (18). Both were really good and my friend and I cannot wait to stop at this store again when we are back in town!

I'm not going to tell you where because its quite useless and I figure I might as well let you have the joy that comes from self discovery. Magazine selection is superb, Starbucks on site is good but the baristas are not held to the same standard as stand alone stores. Book selection also good. But I no longer go to bookstores for the joy of buying books... that's what my Kindle and Amazon are for. I need a place where I can mooch off of the big corporation by reading magazines and books for free while imbibing an over priced cup of caffeine and typing notes from those mooched books on my laptop. But alas, I can't plug the darn thing in anywhere. I miss Borders :-(
