“Can I just say how nice it is to still have a bookstore to go to? This is one is the same as ever, lots of selection, nice staff who love books who are willing to help.”
“A but of a wait but was busy when we got there Sat AM. Delicious breakfast sandwich (the aioli was Divine! But was not on an English muffin, it was a roll) and tasty burrito but didn't finish the last quarter bc it was all l black beans). We found a bench seat bc tables were but that worked for us. Americano was great, the ice matcha was too heavy. We loved looking around, great selection of books, including new releases. The checkout had a man that was not helpful and kind of rude before passing us to a girl who was forcibly happy but she was a delight anyways. Adorable products and a vast assortment. We would go back just a different day!”
“This is a good-sized bookstore here in blue back square. They have a large selection here and a friendly staff.
There is parking in the near-by parking garage.
The area is nice. Last time we were in the area, they had live music being performed outside of here.”
“Great experience, they have books, unfortunately there books are in most cases a lot more expensive than Amazon and a few other online sellers. If you need a book and can't wait this is the place to go, but if you can wait and want to save a lot lot lot of money then online sellers are the place to go. You would have to wait foe the shipments.”
“We had a great time making "Snailentines" and listening to the Valentine story last Saturday with my 3 year old granddaughter -- well done River Bend ❣️”
“A special shop and relaxing place to settle one’s mind. Lovely store owner and floor manager. Bright people, metaphysically academic, and above all, softhearted. They host a bounty of minerals, sacred texts, and other precious materials. Please visit and support this establishment.”
“We love Barnes and Noble and College book stores. This one was no exception. Very large selection of textbooks. Nicely laid out, not large compared to other Barnes and Nobles, but still a very nice selection of books.”
“Nice Polish store that has things from souvenirs to Polish children's books to jewelry. Parking is on the street. Near lots of restaurants and grocery stores”
“I came here with my friend to browse on a Saturday afternoon. It was pretty packed inside, especially at the cafe. They have a fairly wide selection of books, plus many that are discounted. They also have stationary, games, and little trinkets. It would have been hard not to spend money here!”
“This is a modest house, a second house this Block Buster author, probably equivalent to Star Wars of the time, built for herself...yes, this was before women were legally allowed to own her own property in the US! I was surprised at the popularity of Uncle Tom's cabin..you see a room of after effects not only in books and paraphernalia, but on wall paper produced at the time and restaurants being named after it. Our guide was a fantastic woman with a degree is sociology and it came through. She was friendly and open and made our tour interactive. She truly made our tour special. I learned so much about the time Stowe lived in and the Protestant minister father who made her a Catholic! Her 5 brothers all became ministers like their father...the two brothers who did not cut it, committed suicide! I felt immersed in the time while touring.”
“Subhanallah!!! Great variety of Islamic books all fairly priced and in excellent condition. I had a wonderful experience here and the gentleman working at the time was very kind and helpful. I will definitely be heading back to see what else they have in the store, In sha Allah!!!”
“Really cute book store and the staff is super helpful and friendly. They have a great collection of books and even some unique finds. Lots of character. I love it here!”
