    This Barnes and Nobel is my favorite one. I love to hang out here, read a book or work on my laptop. I also find that the books are well stocked at this location. The cafe here is very nice too with great all day breakfast options, along with salads, sandwiches and bakery items. I love their mediterrian quiche. The crust is nice and flaky. Plus its a nice way to get some protein in. The smoked turkey panini is also quite good. It comes with the chips that I love so much. I love to pair my food with a nice Starbucks Cappuccino.

    The Cafe and seating area for customers is much more modern and expanded sive than so.e of theor other locations. I've been to several of their stores closer to the city, and those cafe seating areas are not as comfortable or accessible as this store. I came here today and I've already passed about 3.5 hours just hanging out and doing work on my computer. I ordered a regular coffee and I've been hacking away since I got here. The WiFi is exceptional and the tables and chairs are also very comfortable. The crowd here is also different than what you would find closer in to DC. Even though everyone that I saw was focused on their laptops, a couple people actually smiled and made eye contact. That's not usually the case at some if their other stores. Likewise for the employees here. Everyone seemed to be nice and helpful.

    The staff and environment is great! Coffee shop food and books. You can't get a better combo:)

    This is probably my favorite study spot in all of northern Va. I've checked out way too many coffee shops/cafes but from the lighting, the choices of drinks and food, the ambiance. It's just the perfect area to stay all day and study. usually every coffee shop just offers pastries or has super dim lighting which makes it hard to stay awake. It's worth the drive for me to get things done!

    It was my first experience in this book store today. I enjoyed picking out some books with a roommate of mine. I went to buy some hot cocoa and a cupcake we ate at a small table in the back with two chairs. I moved the chairs around just while I was eating and was prepared to put them back the way I found it, when we were prepared to buy the books we would have bought. The story changed. A store employee (skinny white male with a blue button down shirt) approached and abruptly said in a jarring way without introduction: "Uh unfortunately we don't allow customers to move the furniture." My friend then asked: Does that mean we need to move it, now?" The employee said "yeah, move it," and he left. First of all, what a disturbance to our enjoyment of the bookstore? I am a paying customer and was reading some books I had laid out on the table. This interruption completely could have been handled professionally and politely. Perhaps introduce himself and ask nicely, not demand by saying: "Hello how are you doing? If you don't mind moving the table and chairs back when you're done, that would be much appreciated, we don't usually move the furniture around." That approach would have been a softer, more appealing solution for all parties. I would have stayed in the store and bought the books. Instead, I felt as if we were customers that were being kicked out and unwelcome. We left the area clean, replaced the furniture as we would have done anyway, returned our books that we would have bought and departed the store immediately. It was not the best ending to a story that started out positive. I was considering coming back here with others but most probably won't because of that unwelcome feeling I got from the employees.

    Picked up coffee's since the other regular Starbucks closed today at 4 pm. They were a bit slow today but we finally received our coffees 10 mins later.

    How did I not know that they have more than a cafe and pastries?!? you can order your food, pick a seat, and read or work on your laptop. Make sure you tip as they bring your food out to you and they clean up when you're done.

    Other Yelpers mentioned that this is a small B & N. When we first entered it, we didn't think so. However, as we explored it, we realized that they were correct. There is no section for buying CDs, DVDs or LPs. This, no doubt, was done because there was no room for it. The employees are very friendly. They will greet you when they see you and ask if you need help. I had a nice chat with an employee. When I noticed that the cooking section seemed good-sized, she said that B & N keeps track of what sections have the most sales. They do this so when they open a new location, they know what sections are the most popular. The most popular sections get the most books devoted to that subject. Another thing I did like---there are plenty of places to sit, even some tables. They also have inside a "Barnes and Noble Kitchen". It's not as fancy as the name implies. Looking at the menu, it's Starbucks drinks and some pastries. However, there is good seating in that area. While it would have been nice to see a B & N that is as big as the one at Tysons or in Fairfax, it's still good to have a location in One Loudoun. All that said, we will definitely visit this one again if we are going to dinner in One Loudoun. Otherwise, we would either go to Tysons or Fairfax due to the larger selection of items.

    When everywhere else BNs were closing, opening this store in this wealthy suburb was instinctively smart! This state of the art store houses the best selections, great for Readings, perfect for book signing and surely will keep LC residents well-read intelligent bunch! I say no more! As if --inside cafe and restaurant put this place over the top with their menu and well drinks options, eating & reading not a bad combo indeed! Tonight's (3/22/2018) celebrity book signing: Lt. Joe Kenda!

    Amazon can't be the catch all option. Sometimes you want to browse and then buy. We need brick and mortar bookstores for that and this more than serves that need. This is the best Barnes & Noble I've been to in years, perhaps ever. Huge 17k square foot space complete with a full serve Starbucks and beer and wine options. Beer includes local favorite Solace Brewing and Virginia wines from Barboursville and Jefferson vineyards. Great selection of books and magazines. Plenty of space to sit with a book or laptop.

    Whoever the cook should be fired, microwaving food isn't cooking. Never had anything decent come out of this place
