Barnes & Noble

This place is amazing, you can find a wide variety of book and music related stuff. Attention was awesome, I couldnt pay with my card and the cashier really tried everything to come up with a solution for me, I really appreciate that she took so much time to help me. There's also plenty of puzzles and boardgames. You also have a cafe inside so you can sit there to start reading your newest book

Finally made it to the Barnes & Noble store. With so many of them downing shutters, it was humbling to see one thriving. I requested for The Dogist and they were kind enough to get the book in a few days. The turn table collection in here was also fabulous. You get a lot of quirky stuff for the Traveller and the reader in you on the 1st floor.

I absolutely love Barnes & Noble. It's like a fun whole day experience for me. They have have many cute things, pencil cases, pens, Japanese puzzles, tote bags, chocolates, packing cubes and notebooks, and everything is adorable. And the book selection is just magical. A must stop anywhere. Access code to the bathroom with your purchase!

A surprisingly solid and wide selection of swell titles across three levels. Bigger than you’d think from the outside, with ample toys, cafe, and magazine racks. Bright and roomy. Quite secure. Found just what I wanted: the titles I didn’t know existed but couldn’t leave behind.

This store is a big disappointment. I think the new CEO of Barnes & Noble has decided to create the most miserable book store on earth. Instead of making customers feel welcome, the manager has placed signs everywhere telling people what they can’t do. It’s a shame, because this was once a great bookstore that encouraged customers to hang out for a while and purchase a coffee with their books. The worst post of this store is that you have to check out with your items before you can use the restroom (which is closed more than it’s open) and then return to the second floor to use the facilities. Don’t even think of trying to browse a book— since many of them are shrink wrapped closed. Not sure why anyone would want to make people feel unwanted and uncomfortable in their business, but this store makes that happen.

I am (was) a regular customer, until today in a half empty store on 5th avenue store employee demanded that I don't sit on the floor in their shop. I was simply reviewing a large book that I considered buying (did not, left store & not going back), when I asked her where I can sit, she told me to go to coffee shop in the store, buy something & sit there... is Barnes & Noble a book store or coffee shop? Not clear & nasty experience. I did go to another book shop browsed books sitting by the shelf there & bought bunch of them, I guess "Barnes" is called so because it is for horses, not people.

Heaven for book lovers. Sadly not enough book shops out there these days. Multi floor filled with books, magazine and gifts. Coffee shop on second floor is great (if you can find a seat) to spend some time browsing.
