“Love my bookstores! This is one of my favorite ways to relax. You see B&N still gets it. Plenty of reading and good coffee shop to boot. No rushing allowed just enjoy your time.”
“Jazams Specializes in toys, books, puzzles, games, and gifts for children of all ages. It has been a well-known independent toy store in downtown Princeton for many years and has received national recognition from the toy retail industry.
It’s a long-running independent toy and children’s book store known for curated toys, games, puzzles, stuffed animals, and gifts rather than mass-market selections. It has been operating in Princeton since the 1990s and has received national recognition from specialty toy retailers. Regardless of collection, cost is a bit high.

“Barnes and nobles is a place where all age people can enjoy. There are variety of books and ample of places to sit down and read a book with a cup of coffee or just buy and take home. I love there kids section and business section”
“Elite selection of books ranging from cookbooks to theology books. Very thoughtful selections and knowledgeable staff. Just be aware the books are a little bit pricy but that’s the case with all bookstores.”
“I really enjoyed the opportunity to speak with John Kennedy. What’s interesting is that we share a lot of similar values and stories. The customer service at this book store was outstanding and so helpful. My wife and I are looking forward to reading this book. God bless!!”
“A huge selection of paper calendars and mainstream toys/games that do not require mastery of Mandarin by the age of 3. I applaud the contrarian instincts of any Princeton outpost that specializes in Hot Wheels, toy guns and action figures. Not the playthings of elite academia but certainly provoking a worthy smirk just by being there. Given their inventory, how they pay the rent in this progressive playpen is anyone's guess but needless to say, I'm beyond curious. For that bedeviled tyke who's in desperate need of a plastic AK-47 for show and tell in the gifted language program. Five easy stars.”
“A delightful shop perfect for all types of mystery fans! I stopped by today for the first time and look forward to future visits. The shop is wonderfully stocked with various styles of mystery books and decorated beautifully. I highly recommend visiting the shop if you’re in the area.”

“This is always one of the best book sales in NJ. The sale offers a huge selection, fair prices and a wonderfully helpful staff of volunteers. You can also donate your unwanted books during the year, Wednesdays & Saturdays, 10 am - 12 pm. at the Vanderventer Ave. location. The sale is actually held at Princeton Day School during the spring/winter break. Don't miss it!”
“Pretty good place to get books and other things like shirts, Sweatshirts and other clothing items. Depending on the day you will have a better time. Sometimes staff is a little assertive and disrespectful but that's with every company. Overall. Good.”
“Amazing service! Also I was able to find a game I’ve been having trouble looking for. I can’t remember the name but the cashier with the long hair was so kind and helpful too.”
