Barnes & Noble

Haven't been in the store for a while and was pleasantly surprised with the new layout of the store. It's much easier to navigate and feels more open and library-ish. The purpose of the visit was to have my daughter buy new books with her many gift cards. She was thrilled with her haul, and the employees were fabulous about making recommendations and locating books she couldn't find. They also looked up many titles in which my daughter was interested and ordered them for her. The cashier, after seeing the selections, was enthusiastic and eagerly spoke about new summer releases that my daughter will like. She can't wait to go back for more books! The only constructive criticism I have is to provide baskets on wheels. Those books were heavy to lug around!

Called for two books and was told they were in stock. Drove 60 miles to get there and neither were on the shelf. They check inventory and were sorry they couldn't find them. If I order them I'd get free delivery and 10% discount. No thank you!
I loved coming here and spent a lot along with coffee and goodies.......now must stay home and eat, drink and be merry with Amazon Prime.

Always friendly workers. Clean interior and fast check outs.

Great selection and the Starbucks is still open here.

Nice service, lady stocking shelves near me and my friends made good small talk. Good selection of manga, plenty of stock. The Starbucks within was also very good, had a nice time.

Great place to chill after work or anytime. Helpful staff not to mention Java from Starbucks. As always the book selection is amazing.

My husband & I were shopping in the B & N store in Johnson City ,NY on 12/01/2021 at around 1:30 pm . We were looking for specific books for our grandchildren. When we could not locate what we were looking for my husband went to the counter to ask the worker if she could check for us . She came to the section we were looking in & she said that," the computer says we have three left but I can't seem to find it" . She said she was going to check the computer again . About 10 minutes went by & the worker never returned so my husband went looking for her only to find her helping someone else . My husband tried to ask her again about whether or not she was able to find the book we were looking for but the worker was speaking to someone else & when she was done with that person she just stood there staring at my husband as if she was in a trance & then turned around & walked away. At that point my husband was so frustrated he asked another woman who worked there for some help & she helped us find the item we were looking for & was very pleasant & apologetic for the less than helpful disappearing previous co-worker. We certainly understand the lack of help & we were not overly demanding. Hopefully that young lady will have better days ahead . She definitely was not interested in her job today thus my rating of 2 . We really do enjoy B&N .

Always a good place to go for those books you can't find anywhere else

Excellent selection and easy to navigate layout. Loved the kids section.

Location does have a Starbucks cafe but we did not visit when we went.

Staff was friendly and knowledgeable and quick to help us find what we were looking for.

Great, quiet atmosphere to read and purchase books. Friendly and helpful staff. Reasonable hours.
