“Super close to home, always come here after a trip to the meditation gardens, their $2 incense(15 sticks in the box + it is hand made in India!) is totally worth it. Get the frankincense + sandalwood scents. I use them when I meditate/ rituals. They make great sandalwood prayer beads as well. Although I got them for like 40 bucks since the price of sandalwood has increased over time. AND they have free vintage SRF magazines from the 70s- early 2000s in a basket by the exit!”

“I haven’t been physically yet, but I have ordered a signed book and have corresponded with Greg who was so amazing in helping with an inscription request! He replied to the email the morning I had sent it, and I really appreciated the quick response. My husband and I are in NV so Artifact will be one of the first stops we make on our next trip to Cali! We can’t wait to visit in person!”
“What an incredible hidden gem! Amazing selection of books, at such low prices. The volunteers are so sweet and helpful… I was so thankful to have Becky and Roberta helping me as I needed A LOT of books to fill my library and they were so kind. I love this place so much, I’ll be in here perusing their collection every moment I can!”
“Just went in here once so far but I was very impressed by the curation of the children's book area as a mom. I will definitely be back with open wallets and hoping I don't go too broke buying all the goodies. Beautiful shop!”
“Ocean views at the Encinitas library make this one of the coolest libraries in San Diego! Friends of the Encinitas library run the bookstore and organized and event for local authors inviting the community with to read what their author next door has been up to! Check out the Karma Cats written by Kathleen Kastner. One of the best children's books I've seen!”
“As the author of the Grant Colson Thriller Series and SERA Archives Thriller Series, I always enjoy visiting bookstores while traveling, and Barnes & Noble is a standout location.
The outdoor architecture is very attractive and inviting, and the interior carries that same thoughtful design. Inside, the store is well laid out with a classic bookstore feel, making it easy to browse and spend time exploring.
One feature I really liked is the use of horseshoe-style shelf arrangements, which create smaller, cozy “mini library” sections throughout the store. It breaks up the space nicely and makes browsing more engaging.
There’s also a large children’s section in the back, which is well done and adds a fun, family-friendly element to the store.
The staff has always been friendly and helpful, which rounds out the experience.
Overall it’s a beautifully designed Barnes & Noble with a great layout and a welcoming atmosphere.”
“My boys were there for their 4 West Coast Wrestling Camp. Absolutely hands-down one of the best Wrestling camps in the nation !! They both participated in the 10 day with Mark Munoz. They had 2 divisions 1 coach’s show up ,NCAA champs , all Americans and world Olympic medalist coach.”
“There are too many T-shirt options. The Nike workout gear is very eye-catching, but how are college kids supposed to afford $64 for a zip-up wind breaker? They should also have a think of adding a yoga pant section instead of only offering too short shorts or baggy sweat pants.”
“As a thriller and romance author, I always enjoy finding small independent bookstores, and Camino Books is a great little discovery in Del Mar Plaza.
The shop has a cozy, welcoming feel that makes it fun to browse. It’s not a huge store, but the selection is eclectic and thoughtfully chosen, which makes it easy to find something a little different than the usual bookstore fare.
The staff has always been friendly and helpful whenever I’ve stopped in. On one visit I picked up a humorous sayings book that ended up being the perfect gift for a friend, which is exactly the kind of surprise you hope to find in a small independent bookstore.
It’s great to see a place like this still thriving. Camino Books adds character to Del Mar Plaza and is a fun stop whenever I’m in the area.”
“We stopped by the bookstore to pick up some UCSD apparel. Even though a small area was under renovation, they had plenty of options and we all found something we liked. The lady at the register was incredibly sweet and friendly. When she found out we were attending the graduation ceremony, she thoughtfully gave us a clear bag since that is all that's allowed on the field. Great little bookstore!”
“I went in looking for textbooks and 2 staff members made sure I left the store knowing exactly how to access them. They waited beside me while I checked my requirements online and walked me through options along with their pros and cons. I wasn't expecting such excellent customer service. Keep it up!”
“Very nice and clean place. Everything is very well organized. The employees are all very friendly and know the books. They have books displayed that you can browse through to find what you or your kids are looking for.”
“Always pay it forward.
This is a small location that consists of mostly books but once in a while you'll find a surprise.
This time around, I found a classic WWE Action Figure for my son to enjoy. New in box and priced just right. Online the same item is selling for $49!
I also found a new San Diego Clippers Towel which retails for $39!
All I spent was $5! I'm not a reseller but it does feel tempting.
I'll be back again when I'm in the area for some treasure hunting.
Be back soon.”
