Love Schuler! I've been here in the past for a meeting, but never for the cafe. They have tons of…read moreinteresting things and all sorts of gift ideas. On a Thursday afternoon I was looking for a change of scenery and popped in to work from the cafe. The line was long and the pastry display was pretty depleted, but to me that means the food must be epic. It was busy when I arrived. I placed an order for a Baklava, the featured sandwich, and an iced coffee. The Baklava was amazing. The featured sandwich came with a bag of chips, and the iced coffee was good. Overall it was the perfect spot to pop into and work for a few hours.

I had a gift card to use so I stopped in to Barnes & Noble right when they opened recently. I…read morehadn't been in to a B&N in years so I had forgotten how large the store is. I wandered around a bit at first, just taking in all the displays. They do a great job at merchandising and the displays were mostly holiday/gift related. They have SO many things at this store - books, obviously, but also gifts, puzzles, LEGO sets, calendars, cards, decor, toys, music, and more. It was fun but also overwhelming. I asked at the desk about the cookbook area, and the employee was so kind and helpful and even was going to take me upstairs to the main cookbook section. The cookbook section is huge, with different categories grouped together for different cuisines and dietary needs. I found a few I wanted to browse, but then quickly realized there are only like 3 chairs in the whole upstairs section. They really don't want you to sit and read books here, which I get. I ended up buying a cookbook that I'd already checked out from the library so I knew what I was getting into. The employee who rang up my purchase was polite and kind. I always prefer to support local, independent bookstores whenever I can, but sometimes it's nice to see a broader selection of items at a store like B&N.

I didn't realize how much I missed B&N until I saw this place. This location still carries hundreds of Funko Pops, rack and racks of board games, and so many toys & collectibles, you could spend hours in here before getting to the books. Speaking of books, with all the space, many of the titles I was looking for were in stock. I ended up buying some gifts for my wife and though I live about 3-hours away, if I am ever back in the area (for a hockey tournament), I will definitely stop in. As far as service, the cashier was kind, but there weren't a lot of noticeable associates to answer questions (not that I had any). Regarding value, it's hard to not compare prices with Amazon when you're shopping for books and unfortunately, with Amazon's discounts and delivery, many of the books here are a shade higher in price. That said, I love the tactile shopping experience, so I will continue to buy B&N and support brick-and-mortar.
