    First time visiting Bookshop Benicia and I will definitely be back! The location is perfect for…read morewhenever you're on a stroll down Benicia First Street and in the mood to window shop. Though, I did come into the store with the intention of finding a new book(s) to read and I happily did! The store is organized nicely in an easy to access manner. Everything is reachable (coming from someone who is on the shorter spectrum). I will say it was a little difficult for me to find the genre signs, but after looking harder I'm able to see it. Additionally, I appreciate the signage from fellow readers (assuming they're employees) recommending books and giving a short review on them. Overall, this was a really fun experience! I signed up for their rewards program using my phone number so I'm looking forward to coming back!

    I visited the store on 4/26/26 around 11 a.m. because it looked interesting, but unfortunately, my…read moreexperience was very disappointing. The person at the counter never greeted me, and her demeanor felt very negative the entire time. I left shortly after arriving, as I didn't feel welcomed at all. If she is an employee, some customer service training could make a big difference. If she is the owner, a warmer and more inviting approach would be important to create a positive impression. First impressions matter a lot, and unfortunately, this visit left me feeling unwelcome. I won't be returning.

    While waiting for my appointment at the Lip Lab, hubby and I went into the bookstore just a few…read moredoors down and I'm so glad we did! It's a beautiful space and a refreshing reminder of how special brick and mortar bookstores really are these days. As a family that loves reading, we're always on the lookout for great finds especially for our five year old, who's currently obsessed with graphic novels and funny stories like Dog Man and Captain Underpants. The store's layout made browsing a breeze everything was clearly labeled, well-organized, and easy to navigate.We even scored a few great picks from their Sale table! The staff were friendly and helpful, and the prices were very reasonable. We left with three books and a coloring book for our son. A lovely little stop that made our day!

    This bookstore is very cozy and draws you in; it's clean, organized and the vibe is very relaxing,…read moreartistic and laid back. I love that it's local and friendly! There is a wonderful selection of books, very unique finds and cutesy items. A wonderful bookstore that both children as well as adults will enjoy! The staff is very friendly and offers assistance but is not pushy for you to buy. The books, cards, plushies, note cards, journals and items are reasonably priced. I did buy a few books and I look forward to coming back to this bookstore when I am in Napa, again! Happy to rate Copperfield's Books with five stars! Highly recommended if you're in Napa!

    I just appreciate that there are still a few Barnes and Nobles around. This isn't your father's…read moreBarnes though. The old Barnes and Nobles you could spend a couple hours walking around looking at books. This is the light version. Unfortunately online stuff has put us in the situation where you can go into this bookstore and cover the whole place in around 15 minutes. I was looking at the "horror" section and it's okay but again, the light version. Also the fact everything is so expensive now also doesn't help. A paperback was 20 bucks. I'm not paying 20 bucks for a book I'll read once that I can get a the library for free. Magazine prices are absurd. I did find a couple that were 8 bucks but most are over ten and usually more. For a magazine. I hope this type of place keeps going but I can see why they don't. Support your local book store.

Delighted to find it was lower than Amazon and even some other online used bookstores. I arrived at Barnes & Noble and decided to browse a bit before picking up the book. I find the layout of the store quite easy to navigate. For the most part items are easy to find. As I was browsing, a clerk named Kara asked if I needed any help. That's always nice. As it turned out she also helped me when I went to the checkout area for my book. For some unknown reason the online price did not pop-up and I was reluctant to pay the full price (less the 10% member discount). Kara was very diligent about finding the originally quoted price. Very refreshing to find good customer service. That's what keeps customers coming back!
