Customer service at the cafe is probably one of the best I've encountered. Everyone is great, but I want to give a special shout out to Jasmine.

Friends and I were in the shopping plaza that this Barnes and Noble was in. We stopped in to use…read moretheir bathroom, but also checked out some of their books and offerings. Spent a lot of time at the manga section, and it's very impressive! I haven't really been in a Barnes and Noble since high school, so it was kind of nostalgic to be in one again despite me never being to this specific location, haha. It was cool to see such an expanded manga section, and that they even had more obscure titles and webtoons on offer. For the most part everything was clean and orderly, and fairly quiet too despite all the people. Didn't make a purchase myself, but a friend of mine walked away with two mangas on our visit.

For example; thriller and mystery , history, Poetry, religions, Philosophy , Fiction , romance, fantasy, Sci-fi, comics, classics, social studies, Wellness, parenting, kids, business, cultural studies and more. It's a nice Bookshop to go to support a good cause.

Hardcovers are now $6 and paperbacks $4, which is more than at a general thrift store but then again this nonprofit has a good cause (sending free books to prisons) and a better selection. What used to be the $1 shelf outside the front entrance is the donation shelf where you pay what you can. Hopefully that'll actually make people more generous. In any case, I'm just so glad there are people who still read!!! ;)

I walked in and went to the international travel section and saw travel books but not maps. On the off chance that they might have them, I went to the customer service desk. April quickly looked it up for me and walked me over to the other side of the same shelf, straight to the laminated map that I was looking for. Thanks, April! And thanks staff person in front who helped me out! I like everything about this Barnes & Noble, especially the people working there, but can management do something about the dingy old bathroom? It's convenient but also needs an upgrade in a major way. Anyway, I'll keep coming here in any case for the aforementioned reasons.

The guy working talked to a couple patrons before they left, but as I was looking around, he didn't bother asking if I needed help finding anything.

Hello, I've been to…read morethis comic book shop a few times. I like the selection and the layout is really user friendly. I'm rather new to comic collecting and I've been trying to keep my collection growing, but because I'm new to the hobby I don't always know how things work so I try to ask questions to the workers at the stores I visit. The store has one person who is honestly kind of rude. He is an older bald white guy. I've interacted with him a few times in the past briefly but I always felt he was kinda short and rude with me in comparison to how he interacts with other guests . I thought maybe I am overthinking the interaction so I always just let it slide and kept coming back. I told my partner briefly about this and he even agreed that maybe it could be me over thinking. I went in with my partner and this time I asked a question to the cashier about comic releases and the rude guy interjected and made condescending comments about me not knowing how releases work and overall made me feel really stupid. His whole energy just makes me feel like I'm not welcome and that I'm less than because I'm new to the comic hobby. When we left the store my partner immediately was like "is that the guy that is always rude to you?" I don't think I will come back to this store again because of how rude and unprofessional that guy is. He just really lacks customer service skills.

I'll definitely be back and highly recommend stopping by if you're a record collector or just looking to discover something new!

You walk in and vinyl, some merch, cassettes, and books are to the right and CDs, DVDs and posters are to to the left. The vinyl selection is very nice. Don't sleep on the books. They are excellent. Do people actually buy cassettes? I don't think I want to meet those people, no oiffense. The CD collection was bigger and better than I expected. They have both new and used CDs. The prices on the used CDs were reasonable. Music will be playing during your visit and it will probably be good music (on vinyl, of course). The store is spotless and the workers were very friendly and helpful. The vibe here is very good. If I lived closer, I would come here a lot and I would buy a lot. Free and easy parking in the lot. If you love music, you have no excuse for not visiting.
