“We always stop by here if in Knoxville. They are always extremely helpful and knowledgeable. On our most recent visit the staff helped me with model paint. What the instructions called for was an enamel, I only use acrylics and the color didn't exist in the acrylics. There was something close and staff instructed me how to make it what I needed.
It's a good thing this isn't where we live or we would spend way too much money here.”
“Cute shop with lots to browse. I felt very crammed while walking through here. It is not a very accessible place. Prices are pretty high, but they had some nice items.”
“My niece had a party here. Rented the playground for an hour and then had cake in the party room. It was a really good experience, and the kids had a great time!”
“I grew up going to stores like these for bargain hunting, but Ollie’s is next level! I even found my favorite shampoo and conditioner that was discontinued a year ago, and cleaned them out at about 1/5 the price it used to cost me at Target.”
“I haven't been into a Barnes & Noble in years, but I received a gift card for Christmas, so I went to pick out a few books.
I was honestly shocked by the prices. Most books were around $20 (even short paperback books). I was really excited about seeing their Freida McFadden collection, but it wasn't even in the right section. When I did find them, they were on a random table with about 6 copies.
Additionally, I found sections that were dead ends rather than aisles that allow you to wander freely.
I found some cute vision boards in the area between the sets of doors, but the descriptions were very vague, so I didn't want to make the purchase.
Staff was pretty much nonexistent. We saw one employee at a desk in the middle of the store, and the rest were at the cash registers. That was disappointing, as I recently read an online review of the amazing customer service that B&N offers. I was hoping to have some employees to ask questions of.
I walked out empty-handed and will have to go back to spend the gift card since the website requires $50 spent to get free shipping. Freida McFadden has a new release in 2 days, so hopefully, they will have a large number of those in stock then, in paperback!”
“Sales floor clean and tidy on a holiday. Found out the hard way there's no more public bathroom and had to leave far sooner than planned. Hope they get a policy in place for maybe having to ask for the bathroom key... they told me the story of why and I can't hold it against them. Anyway, friendly staff regardless.”
“We bought a 14 ft trampoline from Funmakers in 2019 and assembled it ourselves. Our boys have used it hard and it's still going strong. Just recently we had a pretty large branch fall on it from about 15-20 feet above. The net and poles caught the branch, stopping it from puncturing the trampoline surface, but bending a few of the poles. As Funmakers is a dealer, we were able to order the exact replacement parts needed that weren't available on the website. Don't let the modest storefront front turn you away... they sell great products and service.”
“I do not think I've ever seen a Five Below as well stocked as this one. Whenever we walked in, it smelled so clean and I was floored at how well stocked + clean this store was. This place is NICE! We were even able to find things here we needed but didn't think they would have! Everyone who worked here the day we visited was nice and helpful. I love this Five Below and will be coming back again when we are back in Knoxville.”
“Interesting store. They have a big variety of things; toys, school supplies, health and beauty items, electronics and more. Most things are $5 although not everything. The items are of decent quality especially considering the low price point. It's kind of fun to take the grandkids in and hand them five bucks and see what they find.”
“Never heard of the place until I was hunting down a collectable for my wife for mother's day. Google search had some bad reviews but I took a chance. Glad I did. Got quick responses back for emails I sent and my order arrived on time. If you see bad reviews, ignore it.”

“Excellent location! Staff are helpful, friendly, and make the experience special. We have been to another location that rushes you through a bit. Here they take their time and make it feel very personalized.”
“Fantastic place and amazing people. Tons of different comics and statue’s. Loki the amazing corgi is so cute and nice. Highly recommended Krypto comics 100/100”
