“They are helpful. No lines in the summer. I gave it four stars because half the campus had no power so the store was shut down for three weeks and when you're doing summer courses you can't get your books for those classes. They finally brought in a generator but never fixed the power problem. Hopefully it gets fixed.”

“I didnt get his name but the tall brother with curly hair was the definition of good hospitality. I felt more like a guest in his house than a customer in a store. Its rare to see customer service like this these days. The prices were very fair too. May Allah bless and reward the people running this business”
“This place completely exceeded expectations. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels welcoming without being overdone, and everything runs with a level of consistency you don’t always see.
The quality really stands out. Every item we tried was fresh, well-balanced, and clearly made with attention to detail. You can tell there’s thought behind both the flavors and presentation, which makes the experience feel intentional rather than just routine.
Service was another highlight. Friendly, efficient, and attentive without hovering, which is honestly a rare balance to strike. It made the whole visit feel smooth and enjoyable from start to finish.
What I appreciated most is that this isn’t just a one-time good experience kind of place. It feels reliable, like somewhere you can come back to regularly and know exactly what you’re getting.
Definitely a spot I’ll be returning to and recommending to others.”

“Sam the receptionist got me right in as an emergency new patient.
Dr Neren has a patient friendly staff. Dr Neren clearly explained my X-rays and treatment plan. I felt very reassured when I left the office.”
“Such a great family Sunday ??. We went to Barnes & Noble and honestly, what an amazing concept—books, coffee, and real quality time with my wife and teenage son. Sometimes you don’t know what to do in the city, and this kind of plan turns out to be the best one. As a dad, I really appreciate places like this where you can slow down, connect, and enjoy the moment. Hope spots like this never go away. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Great Judaica store with a beautiful product selection and amazing service. Beyond our household needs, we’ve ordered in bulk for simchas and Etty was very helpful guiding us to make the best selections. Highly recommend”
“Superb shopping experience. Containing everything one needs to live a Torah life of Deveikus to Hashem. Competitive pricing keeps it so Hashem doesn't need to manifest open miracles for your Torah study. Godbless the good folk here. They are warm and welcoming like a Shabbos lunch cholent (obviously not a Thursday night Cholent as that is recently banned due to it's intrinsic evil). We should all aspire to be talmidei chachamim. Like these humble shop owners. Love you all! (Please give me a discount)”

“Beautiful store, beautiful products, and the cell phone department was very friendly and helpful in helping me get the most awesome best phone for the easiest most connected lifestyle”
“Love this place for great finds like books, toys, coffee, sweets, fancy pens and journal books, and many other trinkets. What would make tgis place a five star is for someone to assist in managing the noise level of kids running around and playing as if they were in the park. This used to be a very quiet, amazing library like environment for people of all ages. What happened?”
“Very organized little store. Unfortunately classics had very few books; though still worth visiting. I found some books to choose. Be notified that they only accept cash.”

“Such a beautiful place to go when you need anything for your Hindu/Sikh rituals. They have everything from Bhagaved Gita to Guru Granth Sahib to Bengali books on Durga Ma. Also many Indian utensils and Indian games like Carom. Truly a peaceful place.”
“I had such an amazing experience here from start to finish. Leland and Matt Barry were incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and made me feel completely comfortable throughout the entire exam. The staff was so patient and helpful when it came to choosing the perfect glasses for my face shape and prescription needs. They really took the time to make sure I found frames that looked great and felt great. Everything was fast, efficient, and seamless, but I never felt rushed. You can truly tell they care about their patients and customer experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an optometrist and glasses shop that goes above and beyond!”

“I used to be a student in AtoZ and I loved it, the staff were kind the Principle is Kind and the school is amazing. Its so sad to see AtoZ now because I'm in 7th grade and it been a long time, and the fact that when you have your graduation for your child and they play songs for your religion which I think is very cool, overall 5 stars.”
“This is my go-to spot for all things Catholic! I always come here for baptism crosses. They have a great selection of thoughtful gifts, sacramental items, and communion/baptism outfits. It’s truly a one-stop shop—they even have gift bags and religious cards. Everything you need to wrap and go!
The employees are always helpful and kind, making each visit easy and pleasant. I love supporting this small business, and I hope more people discover it. If you’re looking for meaningful gifts or Catholic essentials, this place is a gem.”

“(Translated by Google) Very good, the attention... the store is very nice and organized, except that the sign in front... is not so visible... but the attention is very good...(Original)Muy buena, la atención...la tienda muy Bonita y organizada solo que el letrero del frente....no es tan visible...pero la atención es muy buena....”
“When I got here it seemed as if I had stumbled upon a vegan/vegetarian grocery store in the back of a bookstore. While it is not very big, you will see all the bigger vegan brands that you sometimes are looking for. The prices aren’t the best but I saw brands that I rarely see.”
“The Funky Monkey is more than just a toy store, it’s a trip down memory lane. At a time when so much shopping happens online, The Funky Monkey brings back the excitement of browsing shelves filled with toys, games, and surprises waiting to be discovered. The store captures the magic of childhood, creating a nostalgic experience for parents and grandparents while inspiring a new generation of kids to explore, imagine, and play.”
“I have no complaints at all. I go in, get my books and leave. I've never had any problems with anyone there. It's because of those books that I've passed soo many civil service exams. Thank you for your help.”
“Immediately after walking in you are welcomed with a bright open area and kind hearted people! Both classic and popular books in stock, plus a great kids section. Especially perfect for any romance lovers.”
“Love this book store! There are so many books and literature that are for all ages! Would definitely recommend if looking to buy any Adventist/Christian material.”
“Ms. Schwartz was super friendly and accommodating. My daughter and I planned a trip to see this campus a month beforehand. A few days ago we had our virtual tour and then found out they were having student enrollment tours. We asked and she graciously accommodated a personal tour which was fantastic! Even readjusting her schedule because our plane was late and the rental car place closed. I know of no friendlier staff. Thanks!”

“Like everyone else I absolutely hope to win one of the PCH sweepstakes, or two , I enter all the time, but today I am posting this notice to inform anyone who is interested that there is a mistake in one of the items they put in my mailing it is the "America's last circulating silver coins" set of four coins a JFK half dollar, a Washington Quarter, a Roosevelt dime and Jefferson nickel. They list the JFK half dollar as 90% silver which is imposible because from 1965 on through 1970 they were only made with 40% silver (Congress passed the Coinage Act of 1965) due to a short supply of silver.”

In what they have”
