“Fantastic place to visit. The staff at the visitor center was very helpful. Answered any and all questions on the park as well as Philadelphia in general. Very worth while to relax and take the trolley tour.”
“This was a beautiful two floor location, very clean, organized and friendly helpful staff! There were some great clearance sales and as always a selection of books, gifts, journals everything a bookworm loves ❤️”
“My favorite place for used books! I love that I can bring books and they'll donate them if they aren't good enough to sell! And I get to buy books that I wouldn't other wise because they're cheap and I can use credit. And if I don't like them I can bring them back for credit. I've found a few gems here! And they sell new releases too!”
“A lovely independent book shop with many different books rather than what one might usually find in a book shop...
So glad we had an opportunity to visit this shop...”
“A great store run by an even greater man, his conversations are deep and engaging. His care for the children of the community is equal to his passion to enlighten others. Every time I visit I learn something and feel like I am being welcomed by an old friend.”
“Lovely space. Great collection of books. Lots of authors come and speak, and the one I heard a night ago, Paul Halpern, was phenomenal. Thank you thank you for a surviving bookstore!!”
“The women who were closing tonight (5/16) were amazing. We needed to find Henny Penny for a baby shower in the morning. Unfortunatly we were the ones walking in right before closing. They ended up staying a little late to make sure we had exactly what we needed. We're extremely appreciative of their help!”
“I frequently visit Barnes and Noble at Lawrence Park Shopping Center. It's a wecoming place. I am always there for books, beautiful Christmas Cards ( the only place I purchase my holiday cards), magazines, adorable stuffed animals, unusual games, and a great children's section.
The staff is always helpful finding or ordering a book for me. Clean and open. Whenever I'm at Lawrence Park, which is weekly, I wonder into Barnes and Noble.”
“Support your independently owned children's book store! Books range from infancy to young adults. The owner clearly loves what she does and brings in events/authors for all to enjoy.”
“A nice little shop and cafe to visit while at Valley Forge or visiting Washington Memorial Chapel. The store has a variety of gift items, including several that fit a homemade aesthetic. The cafe has sandwiches, snacks, and sweet treats to enjoy, as well as hot and cold beverages.Parking is available at the Washington Chapel lot, and there is a bicycle rack near the store entrance. The area seems safe; we didn't lock our bikes while in the store and left our helmets on our bikes.”

“Great little bookstore with a good selection and an amazing staff. I always get the best recommendations and they can order anything they don't have in stock. I don't get my books anywhere else!”

“I really appreciate this gem in Bryn Mawr. It has a good collection of a variety of genres. I always make it a point to come here when I drive by for work!The staff is helpful, knowledgeable, and kind.”
“I love this bookshop! it’s a cute and cozy place…and i’ve been making it a point to support local businesses and not relying on amazon before they run out all local bookstores and drive their book prices up. If they don’t have the book you need then you can ask them to order it for you!”
“I love visiting this campus (I have been several times as a speaker). The amenties are excellent and their buildings are accessible. the students are great and very locked in every time I attend.”
“I absolutely adore this store and have been a frequent shopper since we moved to the area last year. The staff are AMAZING! They are so sweet and accommodating and hugely helpful when finding books or toys. I buys all of my kids toys here and they LOVE this store. The selection is incredible and perfectly curated to have wonderful options for everyone (especially diverse selection of POC authors!). The owner is fantastic and has saved us TWICE when my son left his lovey in her store. She knows my name and is so kind every time we go. Honestly nothing beats supporting this incredible local business. This sweet women even put his lovey in a bag with my name on it when she found it because she recognize that it was my sons. 100 stars ?”
“Love this campus and community! Caring faculty and staff plus passionate students. People want to make a difference in the world around them. Campus is beautiful in the Fall and Spring.”
“Not only a great college bookstore, but a great independent bookstore period - it even has a curated "new release" section. A wonderful selection of (mostly) fair-trade gifts, and a superb array of cards/stationery, too!”
“A cute store worth checking out. The cashier, Spencer, is very polite and does a good job of keeping the place organized. This is a great place for gag gifts as well!”
“This bookstore boutique was such a surprise! Excellent, curated collection of science fiction classics, fantasy, and romantic, including less well known authors and special editions. They have a big section of dungeon & dragons items, including custom dice. What really wowed me were the bookshelf craft kits and amazing quilled greeting cards, some of which were truly works of art. Great, helpful staff , too. Everything you need in an excellent little bookstore. I walked through the Dick's outside entrance to find it easily (as they were the first store when I excited the other side into the mall)”
