“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!”
“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.”
“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...”
“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)”
“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!!”
“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!”

“These guys are also known as wilbooks, they are an online based store so you can't purchase from them in person but feel free to visit them. On my visit I was given a sample book and a special discount for my next purchase. Highly recommended.”
“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.”
“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.”

Book Stores
“Great local shop to pick up a previously loved book that supports local causes. Small cozy space that smells just like a used bookstore should. Always a cart outside with cheap finds... I've often picked a random book to take with me and read while supporting local food and drink establishments.”
“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.”
“I was having trouble finding some books this fall and the manager of this store, Amanda, was AWESOME! She dropped what she was doing as soon as she saw I was looking confused and after I left I have to say it was probably the best customer service experience of my life. I ended up buying more books instead of renting on her suggestion since I would need them for future classes, so of course in the long term this saves me a considerable amount of money.”
“Visited there yesterday! A very polite girl named Jessica was there alone! Even with there being quite a few people in the store she was still able to help everyone! With a smile on her face! She was very nice and very helpful! I highly recommend the store just because of the excellent customer service I received from this young lady!! If I could give 10 stars I would of!”
“Is staffed by friendly volunteers. It's the only shop in Valley Forge for lunch (sandwiches, hot dogs, etc.), snacks, beverages, and souvenirs. Homemade baked goods are delicious, very reasonable priced. There are tables both inside and outside to sit and enjoy your snacks. It is also a site for official drop off box for worn American flags. Parking is available at Washington Chapel lot. Hidden gem for a nice break, at the end of your tour of Valley Forge.”
