    BN Cafe

    This is a very small location within Mosaic. Not sure why they would have a location here. If you really want to go to a Barnes and Noble you probably don't want to fight the crowd at Mosaic. They still have a section for games, magazines, and Harry Potter lol. There is also a corner for the BN Cafe where they do serve Starbucks. But there are not any outlets so this is not a good study/work spot.

    I think this may be one of my favorite locations of B & N. Conveniently located smack dab in the middle of the Mosaic District, it's easily accessible from either end of the center. The store is always bright, clean and fully stoked. Staff is always courteous and helpful as soon as you step foot in the door!! Find your favorite book, discover some new ones or even pick up a drink and a snack from the cafe and you are go to go! If by chance they do not have the title you are looking for they always over for order it for you or offer a similar selection. I'll keep popping into this location whenever I am in the area.

    Serving Starbucks!

    Very clean and beautiful location; perfect to unwind after walking and shopping around. Loses a star just because it is a smaller location in comparison to tysons or fair lakes, so the selection is definitely limited. Still very organized and easy to maneuver throughout the store! I didn't notice a ton of seating space, though (just by the cafe!)

    2 stars updated review; nice bookstore but some disappointing experiences. And don't ever go here and expect a bag for your purchase! They can't control their "feelings" about people who want bags!

    This is a new design for me.

    5/18/19 Meet a your man who works here and we had a nice conversation for 20 minutes on writing, reading and history of Games of Thrones. I don't remember his name now, but he was very cool and down to earth. I learned that this Barns and Nobles has been open for three weeks now. They are the smallest store in the country from what I heard. We looked around and saw books that got my interest. There are many novelists who have got my interest and inspires me to be my own novelist. The gentleman I meet earlier on said he wishes yo write is own books. Since my computer has had a meltdown, I am without a personal computer for the time being and it fucking sucks. Near the end of my walk around the store, I discovered a young novelist by the name of Missy Sheldrake who is a Fantasy Author/Illustrator. After our talk, she has given me more of a reason to self publish my own novels. Missy Sheldrake's pictures of her characters have now come to life in not only her mind, but to the minds of many of her readers. She started around the same time my ideas were in my head. She has shown me that hard work will get you to where you want to be. A lot of this was expressed just by how she talked to me and the features on her face. We now have two of her books and I plan on reading them as soon as my wife finishes Missy's first book. Heading into this Barns and Nobles has made my day more interesting.

    I was lucky enough to be visiting Fairfax on opening day for the Barnes & Noble in the Mosaic District.
