Its not what it used to b. They really do not understand we can order on line most anything today. That said if I am going into a store it is because I want it now. I do not want them to order it 4 me and send it to me. So I went home order it on prime recived next day free delivery. That said I have not been in BN In over few years as I support local own business when can. I just happened to b right their and gave them a try again. Very sad

Im always in awe of Barnes and Noble, like I am of libraries. I used to feel intimidated when shopping there, but the employees are so friendly, and so helpful. Im still in awe, but now its awe of all the fascinating treasures that are within those walls. Its so much more than a book store, its a magical experience. Even if i dont make a purchase (Im sure they would rather that I did), I always feel enriched by my visit.I cant sing their praises highly enough!

These guys (as a corporation) really need to up their software game... I asked for something that is currently difficult to get from the publisher, and said I would be willing to wait. Well I waited 2 weeks with no notification then stopped in to see if there was any update. One of the 2 items I ordered was in stock on the shelf. So I grabbed it and went to the desk. I asked about the other item first and was told that it was canceled because it took too long to arrive. Then I brought up the copy I was holding in my hand and asked why I wasnt notified of it. Same reason... so I asked why I wasnt notified of the cancelation so I could take advantage of other opportunities. I was told they were too understaffed to handle notifying everyone when an order got canceled... stop and think about that. They have a software platform that they entered my information into and they require staff... to make notifications of an order cancelation. From a connected database ordering system... are you guys in the late 80s when email wasnt really a thing people had... oh wait you took down my email so that cant be the case. Are whomever does your programming for in house systems incompetent? Sounds like you need to replace that staff then you wouldnt need your front line staff to handle unhappy customers when the order being canceled isnt even your fault. Keep that in mind Im not mad that the order got canceled. Im just frustrated that your system is so archaic you rely on over worked (and probably under paid) staff to handle what a computer could do for them...

Joseph is the reason myself and friends continue to come to Barnes and Noble. His social skills and book recommendations separate this brick and mortar from Amazon. Keep up the great work Joseph, you are much appreciated!

Just awful. I asked for a book lookup and got a super big pressure sales run around. Instead of buying two magazines I got fed up and left. Brick and mortar is dead. Never going into a b&n again.

Nice bookstore but the cashier really didnt seem to care to be there. Could maybe use better training or work conditions but it could turn customers away.

Great selection. Friendly staff. I think their loyalty program is overpriced – Im not sure I go often enough to make my membership worthwhile. I wish theyd bring some of the seating back that used to be there.

They have tons of genres to choose from. The only thing is I wish theyd bring back seating that is away from the Starbucks Cafe because its kind of noisy to try and study near all the ruckus.

Music is loud sometimes and outlets are very few and far between, but a great atmosphere to sit down and get some work done, have some coffee, and pick from a great selection of books.

I got a snobby vibe from the staff at this Barnes n Noble. Felt like they were judgmental and prejudiced. But they had the book I needed so paid for my purchase and got out of there.

B&N has very little in the way of a metaphysical section.

Br
Review №56

This is a great location everytime I stop by. Always impressed by their selection of books, puzzles, or games, I can usually always find what I am looking for - or else a staff member is willing to get it on order. Cozy atmosphere as well. If I were to pick one thing they could improve upon, I would suggest that employees working the floor be a tad bit more aware of customers/customer needs. Though I have nothing bad to really say about this location. It is a more than adequate facility, and definitely has friendly staff.

Im giving it 3 stars because the customer service was really good. It lost 2 stars bc it was dirty. Mostly the bathroom, it was nasty. I felt like I was it walmart....... except they keep it cleaner

Ordered a book for pickup and had no issues. Great service as usual, except for the constant badgering to get me signed up for their rewards program. 😁

Review №61

Always understaffed. Long waits at checkout. Staff are friendly and helpful but just not enough of them. And for some strange reason they feel the need to frequently move sections around the store causing confusion. Maybe the manager once worked in the fruit and vegetable department in a supermarket where they also do that.

As always a great bookstore. Has reconfigured the store for COVID safety and that has been fantastic. I do wish they would minimize the toy section... Its a bookstore not a toy store.

I was treated very rudely and told to shop fast and leave the store because I have a medical condition that precludes me from wearing a mask. The manage gave me a weak so sorry its our corporate policy and was not interested in getting any information about the aggressive and intimidating employee. Stay away from this corporation. Its a nasty heartless place.

I love shopping here, i could have used a shopping cart today because I found so much but it was a bit distasteful to overhear a couple of managers or shift leaders discussing employees, employees clothing choices and their attendance. Maybe this should be done in an office away from the customers.

Large selection. Nice atmosphere. I didnt care for the layout of the store, but Im finding that is happening more and more with all book stores. It seems like they are arranging things differently than Im used to from when I was young; however, I did like the kids section here.

Review №99

Due to their revamp for the virus you cant find ANYTHING, including anyone to help you find what youre looking for. Which might be ironic considering theyve closed the customer service desk telling you to ask a bookseller for help when I was not able to locate one in a timely manner after literally searching the ENTIRE store!! I finally gave up, put down the item I had really wanted & left. Ill just buy my books through Amazon I guess.
