About Barnes & Noble
Barnes & Noble has recently opened a new location that, despite being smaller than other stores, offers a delightful shopping experience. The store features a well-curated selection of books across various genres, along with DVDs, CDs, vinyl records, and unique merchandise. Customers appreciate the artistic design of the space, which is described as "adorable" and "small and mighty." While some have noted the absence of a café, it is expected to open soon next door. The store is also praised for its knowledgeable and friendly staff, who provide good customer service, helping customers find and order books with ease. However, the layout can be challenging for those with strollers or wheelchairs, as display tables are strategically placed throughout the store to maximize space. Despite this, the bookstore is considered worth visiting, especially for its extensive selections, including a large manga section and a well-received children's area. Overall, this Barnes & Noble is a promising addition to the community, bringing back the joy of browsing a big bookstore.

New, well stocked, very friendly, large inventory. Was able to hold a book that I couldnt find at other barns and noble locations. I wish there was a place to sit and read. Otherwise good place to grab a book if another place doesnt have it.

Shame on those giving a 1 star review for “lack of a cafe’” and discrediting the awesome selection of books and the hard working employees who don’t decide on cafe’s. Grow up people-and live just one step outside yourselves. Awesome place with an awesome staff.
