Very wide variety of books. Prices a little high. Not all the books I was looking for however there is a huge selection. Large selection of Clarence too. Nice section for kids with lots of picture books and chapter books. Love the small section specifically for them. There is a section for games and toys. Great place to find what your looking for for everything for school and college to history

Great selection of books with good prices. They have a really nice bargain section where you can pick up tons of books for $5-$10. Also has a Starbucks inside which is always nice.

Nice to still have a book store that is well rounded and offers vinyls and games and isnt called Amazon. Still a chain but better than throwing money at a billionaire who wants to be a space cowboy 🤠

I bought 2 book that day and I wanted more but I dont read that fast..lolol. It was just amazing. Why? Because I love books like wow, I just love to be in their presence...lolol. so to walk into a store that has books from beginning to end I feel it is one of the best places to be in. The customer service was great and helpful they are. Every genre of reading material is in that place or so it seem. So head over and take your pick

Great bookstore. Its very big. It has a cafe too. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The bookstore has gifts and other unique items for purchase as well.

Review №11

The store is kept clean, and they have a hand sanitizing station at the front door. The customer service staff were quick to answer the question I had about a book that didnt have a price on it. (Yes we both looked, in the end she scanned it and we brought it home) social distancing can be slightly haphazard but that isnt because of the store staff. So the unfortunate truth is that how safe or happy your visit will be really depends on the other people in the store. I do recommend going in though. You never know what you might find. We adopted a sloth puppet, Which definitely was not on the shopping list. So head in with an open mind, and follow the safety guidelines. By doing that you will have a safe enjoyable shopping experience.

Barnes and Noble is a beautiful store and has a tremendous collection of books in every category. There is now a fairly large section of sale books. The coffee shop is open too. Everything is very well organized and immaculate. It is a pleasure to be a customer in B & N.

They are very helpful here. If they dont have what you are looking for they will order it and you can pick it up when they get it in. They will call you and leave you a message about it if you dont have the chance to answer

I thought that Barnes & Nobles would have a better selection of books. I found it problematic to find different subjects. Otherwise, the book store did have a nice childrens section. Still, it seemed there wasnt enough room for everything on the bookshelves.

Review №27

Good place to go, staff is friendly, good selection clean, they have a Starbucks which is a plus however you can only sit in the drink area 30 mins with only a few tables so if youre going in a date or a friend meet up you may want to choose a different place to meet other than that if youre seeking a book this is a good place to go!

Review №36

The staff are SO helpful...I was looking for an obscure book & the associate took them time it took me to find it online, then utilized her computer to let me know it is out of print, and recommend other alternatives. Cashing out was similar in the attention given to let me know the rewards programs, coupon options, and such. There is nothing like the experience of going to Barnes & Noble 😊

Review №38

The staff was extremely helpful took me right to where I needed to be and I didnt even know that. But now we go to Starbucks in the Barnes and Noble the barista was rude kept telling my daughter in law her drink was wrong when she ordered it many times before everytime she added something he would mock it she is insecure and little tasks that we all take for granted are hard for her like ordering food or drinks. So thank you Mr.Barista I hope the 2 min you spent belittling my daughter in law took away some kinda pain u where dealing with at that time.

I have always enjoyed going to actually bookstores over digital places like Amazon. Barnes and Noble is great place to find books, magazines (like my White Dwarf), toys and collectibles. Little bit of something for everyone.

Its a book store. They have books. If they dont have the book you want, theyll order it for you. I prefer them to Amazon because I dont want Amazon to become the only marketplace in the world and I enjoy flipping through a book before I buy it.

I was recently in looking for a book for my daughter. I couldnt locate the book and after 10 mins of looking for help I finally was helped at the counter. The lady looked it up and said yeah we have 5 of them over there. She proceeded to point in a direction and walk away. Thanks I guess...

I love coming here to relax, read, and shop. All the staff have been extremely friendly and helpful. B&N has a good selection of books in all interest areas. They also carry gifts and childrens items. I love the atmosphere, this a great place to visit especially during cold Buffalo winters. Also, there is a Starbucks inside to grab a coffee, tea, or other beverage. I recommended!

I love browsing the books here. You get decent coupons sent to you every once in a while if you sign up with your email. I also prefer ordering books from their website as opposed to amazon, as they have consistently been much better packaged and arrived without any damage.

My second favorite place on Earth! Please don’t go away even though the mall around you is dying slowly! This is such a warm and inviting B&N, I don’t know, but aren’t they all!?! The only thing I would hope they could improve upon would be their bathrooms. For such a nice clean store, their bathrooms are always in sketchy.

A vast array of books and reading item extras. Could have spent more time browsing if I had more time. Saw several items my grandchildren would like. My main reason for stopping in was to pick up a Christmas gift. Staff were extremely helpful as I was not able to locate the book I needed.

Review №88

Why I love this place. BOOKS! Its that simple. Nothing like having a book in your hands. Yes, I have a tablet and read books there, but going to a bookstore or your local library for your favorite book or books, well there nothing like it.

Very clean and efficiently run Starbucks and also provides the ability to have a cup of coffee while enjoying a good book as there is a huge Barnes and Noble also in that space. Easy to find and the service is always excellent when I go there. Highly recommend!!

Sure you can go online. But this place has many books that seem to not be available on the web. And you get the best, most personable service to boot! Want to find a specific title? Maybe a few? No problem for the guys and gals here. Theyll be right over to you with the results! Also a great place to hold a discussion on the latest book you and your friends have been into lately!

Nice and well kept. The cafe has a nice setup but is not handicap accessable. It could do with a ramp. I had a stroller with me and it was a pain to get to the counter.
