"AMAZING store….this store has such a calm and homey vibe to it, and i always love the chance to come here, get a few books, and sit at the cafe to read"

"It has wide range of books and toys for all age groups. My best section was manga ones and even the way "scarlet" help to choose books in most of the tag was impressive."

"Pros: large selection of books, toys, and games that was fun to play with and explore, lots of seating in the cafe area, cafe staff was friendly Cons: the floor throughout the store, and especially in the children's section looks like it hasn't been vacuumed in weeks. There was trash, dust bunnies, hair tumbleweeds, etc everywhere. Our toddler kept finding gross trash all over while exploring the children's section. Also, the men's restroom was pretty dirty and smelled of urine. We've seen gas station restrooms much much cleaner. We decided that we would rather travel extra miles in the other direction to visit a different BnN location in the future unless this place gets a good cleaning."

"I was impressed with this B and N location. There is ample parking and most of the sections were thoroughly stocked and complete with staff recommendations in all sections throughout the store. Quite notably, the sci-fi and fantasy sections had a wide variety of authors and not just the typical, mainstream authors you typically encounter. I found the staff to be friendly and aware but not intrusive realizing a reader familiar with the stor lay out. The children's section was also rich with stock and offerings and this being a Friday night where you might expect things to be a bit disorderly. Of course, this location has a coffee shop with Starbucks' goods and a modest seating area to enjoy."
