Great bookstore with tons of selections. Staff is very helpful and will take the time to help you look for what you need. Nice cafe as well to get a snack and coffee. You can also sit and read a book or magazine. They have a really nice kids section as well with a ton of kid books, toys and arts and crafts. Hope this location stays open for years to come.
This store was amazing! Friendly and helpful staff, amazing variety and selection of books, enjoyable browsing experience. For this to be one of the few brick & mortar book stores left, this store doesnt seem to be slowing down anytime soon. Wonderful overall. Will certainly return again and often.
This place needs new management as its a complete mess. They have no employees and the ones that work there are mental.I witnessed one start throwing all the baked goods out the display case today on to the line area with customers.He still works there.That should tell you everything.
Amazing local place for me to shop for books or sit down at their Cafe and read with a good coffee. The staff is really friendly and helpful by the way
Took my son 9years old and my 7 years old daughter for the book wings of fire 🔥 scavenger hunt at juveniles sections—- They both had a blast and the guy that did it was so good with all the kids....—cafe (Starbucks) they have cheesecake fromCheesecake Factory was yummy!!! There are other selections as well from sandwiches to pastries...—there’s a lot of book selections from any genres.—lots of parking spaces.—all the staff are very Helpful and polite - especially when I was about to be ring up and my daughter had asked for a pin (she collects pins) And she patiently walked and showed my daughter all their pin selections.
I love to read books, and this is my favorite place to buy and read them, they even have their own cafe! It’s always quiet and the staff members are always nice and helpful! You can always go back and return your books, but you have to have your receipt and the books have to be in selling condition and you have to bring them back in 30 days!
I usually love this store. All of the associates are usually nice. But there was one girl that was just nasty. She even scolded another associate for doing something wrong right in front of all the customers. I walked out without buying anything because of her.
Very helpful... And accommodating..
One of the few book stores left unfortunately, hopefully it stays around till im old n dead cause i love the place
They close at 9, tonight the female employee at the cafe informed me that shes not making anything. Stopped an hour ago because she decided to shut the machines down.This is the type of employees that work here.
Staff is very friendly, clean store and the A/C works wonderfully!
There is nothing like the experience of being in an actual bookstore. And Barnes & Noble is a treasure. I hope they will be around for years to come.
Love book stores, i miss them & record stores, buying books is as close to buying albums at a record store as u can get
The people that work there, were very helpful and nice. They helped me find the books a needed. Very good experience.
My favorite book store and so is my grandchildren favorite.
Great store you already know what it is
Very good Barnes & noble. I can never find the volumes of manga that I want though
Me and my son love to get lost in books. Barnes and noble is one of the last great places 👍
They have a pleasant friendly staff. They know their stock. You can ask a question without feeling like you are ruining their day. The lead associates always have a smile. Not sure who the managers are at this store.
This is such a great place and The remodel makes it even more inviting.
It is a great place to get books. If you like to read physical books still its very nice to just go in and browse. Their childrens section in particular seems set up to get kids to read and my toddler enjoys going in there with its bright colors and mix of book related toys to go along with the display of the books themselves makes him more excited to, at this stage get read to.
Near a bus stop very convenient for those who travel by bus. Really big location, always clean and quiet. Vast collection from textbooks, to fantasy novels to mangas. Staff is very helpful. A bit pricey but they have great deals sometimes, and the books are worth the cost.
B&N is always a pleasure to shop. They had various sale items and BOGO 1/2 off, and I enjoyed finding those. The help desk assisted me twice and I left happy.
Always helpful. Didnt have what I needed but staff helped to get it shipped to me.
Very clean place. Staff are friendly and ready to help. They have a coffee shop inside, towards the back. I enjoy coming here with my daughter.
Good selection. nice cafe
I grew up going to this location. Great customer service and fun place to go 😊.
Ordered book not in stocks at store..Will be delivered to my home.
Everyone friendly and helpful, and we ordered what I needed without any issues.
We love going to barns and nobles in bayshore the people that work there are very helpful we went Saturday surround 1 pm and the cashier Nathan G was very helpful and friendly
One of the last places to be able browse through the book selection. The staff is always helpful and friendly
Very knowledgeable friendly staff
Clean...good attention
They were helpful
The staff is friendly and helpful, the location is not large but it has a very decent selection of books in various categories. The shelves as well as the store are very organized. Everyone is wearing masks and they are practicing social distancing.
Very good selection of books
Love to share reading with my granddaughter 💝 This our special place. The staff are professional and very helpful.
Always very quiet and very organized, the staff is helpful too.
If course great selection of books and magazines and gifts and cards. Plus the coffee shop is pretty good too. Its really easy to do from Sunrise hwy or Manor Rd right next to Lowes. Parking is great, Free, handicap accessibility, with handicap♿ entrance too. Was able to get my son the book he wanted as well as find a nice card too. Its really nice having a REAL BOOKSTORE that you can see, touch, and feel the books rather than just online. Sitting at the coffee shop table to look through it to see if its really what you want is relaxing and A MUCH OVERLOOKED advantage to online shopping. Plus you see nice people too 😁👍
Its clean, staff is very knowledgeable and friendly
Staff was very helpful. Had what I needed. Quick checkout. Love this store!
They have all the latest books and magazines the coffee is great and plus they put the tables and chairs back!! (30 minute time limit)
Massive, clean, great selection. Classic Barnes and Noble charm.
A bit short staffed but the manager is on top of opening more registers, managing the line and assisting customers.
It was very good
Its a bookstore. what can you say? If your looking for roofing supplies youll be disappointed. Looking for books, you have to give them a 5 star review
Clean, neat & organized. Staff friendly & accommodating.
Quite, staff is helpful. You can still eat and sip in the cafe while reading the books/ magazines
Great selection of books and can never go wrong with their discount section. The book store employees are always friendly and willing to help. Cafe is another story. Not all the employees know how to make drinks correctly. I got an iced tea today and the older man had no idea how to make it and It was Mostly water. Go just for the books!
Good place to get books.
They h ave everything
The gentleman cashier was very kind and helpful. I was there to purchase a guess book for my brothers funeral. The ones I found were in the range of $22-$29, I brought the one I like to the register and he informed me that there were similar ones in the clearance area, well was a relief to an already tight funeral budget. I will do more shopping there in the future. Even if its just to visit there lovely coffee shoppe
I think barnes and nobles is an amazing place to go. It is amazing because the people who work there are very helpful and will answer any question you have. Barnes and nobles does not only have books but they also have great toys you can get.From an 11 year old shopper.
I never grow old of this place.
We love barns and Noble me and my grandson love to read so we love going there
Great, found what I was looking for
Very helpful and friendly :)
Big selection, great staff and well kept!
All Barnes & Noble stores I have been in from East to West coast are the same. They all have a nice Cafe and large selection of books, magazines, cute kids seating and book area, games, gifts and music. All stores are in busy locations and have lots of parking. They also are well lit and have a help desk to direct you if you have questions or need to order something. I love their large selection of puzzles, too. Love these stores!
The staff is always helpful. Several times the staff had went above and beyond to get me a book they did not currently stock. They make ordering easy and they follow up accordingly.The cafe has a good atmosphere, its usually quiet and the coffee does the job.
Barnes & Noble is one of my favorite stores to browse when I have some free time. They always have some pretty cool stuff, and they have clearance tables, which are my weakness. This one, like the others, is great. Chill atmosphere, good prices and selection. I can definitely see myself coming in again.
Lovely Place.
Great bookstore
The staff is so nice and helpful, plus the little cafe they have will definitely make reading enjoyable. The different areas are organized so neatly and clear distinction of genres makes it easier to find what you are looking for. Will definitely come back more often
Book stores are always a winner
A Nice B&N with a good selection of books currently on the market. Lovely childrens area with a vast selection on classics, learning and much more. A bit pricey even with discounts sadly. Nice basics for art and wide selection of journals. Very kind service.
Popped in today because its close to home. I dont know if they had to widen the aisles or something due to covid either, but they were slacking on product. I usually tend togo to Massapequa Barnes & Noble even before covid because Bay Shore hasnt been that great and has a bigger selection then Bay Shore.
It is nice to find a bookstore still open
Just enjoy coming here to check out the books. There are other items here as well such as cards, bookmarks, magazines and more. Great section for the children: books & games.There is a cafe on the premises. They serve coffee, tea, desserts, soup, food items, etc. Eat in or take out. Enjoyable experience. Come with a friend.Free wifi. Restrooms.
Good vibes with a nice layout
This barnes and noble is huge! It was easy to find what I was looking for and the place was very clean. I enjoyed my trip here. The guy at the register was extremely helpful! Id come back again
The sales people are so helpful
Love it 😍
Clean and quiet but very dull .
Love it! Try the house special minestrone, you wont regret it!
A great book store. Theres a wide selection and a large area for children. Also, a small Starbucks for a coffee and snacks. Bathroom is large but not as clean as one would like. Ample parking.
Great selection and great service
All clean and well stocked
I am a frequent shopper at the Bayshore Barnes & Noble store. The employees are the most congenial and helpful at this B&N. Mike and Mandy have always been the most helpful for all of my purchases. I absolutely love going there because the two of them know exactly what Im looking for and have always made my experience at B&N a most enjoyable one. They are truly an asset to Barnes & Noble. Thank you Mike and Mandy!!!!!!!!☆☆☆☆☆
Such a friendly staff! I walked in was greeted very kindly and they immediately took me to the book I needed. It is so well organized in that place its fantastic! Ill be back!
Great place and location. Staff is always available for questions and know exactly what your looking for. They make great suggestions and are happy to assist.
Still a a fan of the good old paper back!
Open 7 days approx 9-9. Decent coffee for $2-$3. Only one dbl socket for electronics but I bring extension chord to share dbl outlet for running and charging mobile electronics. Close to King Kullen for cheap lunch.
The staff is always very helpful and friendly. Great and quiet atmosphere with plenty of books to choose from. Barnes and Noble is always a pleasure to visit. The Starbucks Cafe there is nice as well.
If you love any & all kinds of information on just about anything Or you just want a book to read & escape for awhile into Barnes & Noble is the next best thing to an actual library.
Its a book store. Finding someone to help is always tricky and they didnt have what I was looking for in stock. I feel the only benefit to going to a physical book store these days is to enjoy the book you just purchased in the cafe while you have a scone and a latte.
Exceptionally helpful, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Uplifting and relaxed environment. A very nice place to spend a few hours....get a cup of coffee and treat yourself to a new book.
They have a decent selection of books. However, I looked up the same exact books on Amazon, and a 15.00 book at Barnes & Noble was 8.00 on Amazon. If youre a prime member, I wouldnt even think about purchasing from Barnes. I could have saved a total of 12.00 had I gone through Amazon first.
I always enjoy a visit to Barnes and Noble. The Starbucks is a nice place to grab a coffee. I easily received help from a reference person in locating a specific book I wished to purchase.
It was a very nice experience. Staff is very helpful. I love to come here
Its Barnes and Noble. Whats not to like. And if youre so disposed, you can can yourself a Starbucks in the cafe right there.
The Bay Shore B&N itself is tremendous, clean and fun to browse, but I had a highly negative experience over the phone. I called the store to see if they had a new bestseller in stock. The staff member I spoke with could not find a copy, but offered to check their system to see if any nearby locations had the book. I was then placed on hold for about 1-2 minutes, after which a different person picked up and asked how they could assist me. When I explained the situation, the woman ~literally~ scoffed and said, All of my cashiers are too busy to help you with that. Try calling yourself. So again, I explained that the previous person I had spoken to was in the process of checking their system, and again, the woman (presumably a manager by her use of my cashiers) was extremely rude. She reiterated, Well, shes too busy now to help you. Youll have to call yourself. I couldnt believe how disrespectful she was. Obviously the holidays are stressful when you work in retail, but jeez!
Ive been a daily customer for many years- Great bookstore but they just hired a cafe manager who was very rude - I started getting my lattes else where ! However, I found out she left (I wish her well!). And I am so happy to visit one of my favorite places again- great customer service, knowledgeable and friendly employees, and the cafe is a great 👍 place to visit -
Like most blood the noble that has all the books will you ever want or ever need come the cafe is good have a nice cup of coffee your latte while you reading or browsing for a book very relax, this particular 1/2 the have some of the nicest staff that I have ever account that didnt belong to no book very helpful very friendly and not overbearing like some places that I have gone to where they follow you around and see what else can I get you . So few in the area stop by this one and youll see a big difference very nice experience every time I go there
