    I had not been in a Barnes and Noble in a little while and came here with my daughter to help her pick out some books. She ended up getting three. I spent my time in the financial section browsing through finance books and they had a very good selection. The people working there were kind and nice. Four and a half stars but they are running right up to five. It was a good visit.

    Awesome selection of books. I came to find a juice recipe book. I have been in the market for a new E-reader. I found a really good one here. Most of the stores would have to order it. The Harry Potter section was large. So many books. stationary journal, objects and stickers were 50% off. I like that this location still has a Starbucks and a comfortable seating area. They have 3D puzzles and games and Lego. Free in a large parking lot.

    manga

    i think the manga is pricey but i think it worth it i think there very friendly people and they gave me a free bag like from the member ship cause a man didn't want his but over all my experience been great the 2 times i've been here

    I love puzzles but I never seen a stand-up puzzle. Awesome in a definite buy!!

    Ok honestly I'm not into books the way most bookworms (my bestie being one) are. But I love the atmosphere. Something about bookstores and coffee shops that relaxes my nervous system. I love how quiet, clean and organized this store is. Parking isn't a problem as there is plenty. Picking up a snack or meal wouldn't be hard either seeing that they have a coffee shop with pastries inside. The customer service is fantastic. You don't have to look too far for a helping hand. My bestie I stopped by on February 3rd and I didn't catch the name of the team member at the register but she was awesome. If she wasn't processing someone's order she was walking along with a customer to assist them with locating a particular book. She did the same with my bestie as well. What the kid inside of me does appreciate, is the other products sold aside from books. The games and decorative items. I would definitely be back to purchase a couple. Barnes and Noble would always be the spot. It's definitely the spot to relax and read.

    Amazing recs pt. 2

    I came with no plans of a specific book to buy, so I browsed for about a half hour, declining any help, but the longer I browsed, the more I started to think I needed some assistance. There was a staff member that I approached and I asked him to recommend books to me. He finished what he was doing and brought me to so many aisles giving me so many great recs for genres I'm interested in. I couldn't buy them all for fear of buying too many and not reading them., so I narrowed it down to 1 book and bought it. The staff is so nice and the ambience is super cozy. The entire store smells like coffee and it's great. Note: I'm not sure if this is a constant thing but they carried Lego sets that Lego no longer sells online, so if you're looking for a niche Lego set, maybe you can find it here!

    This review is only for the Starbucks inside. I ordered my frap with ease, however it was the taste that threw me off. I ordered a White Mocha frap and it was extremely bad. The entire drink taste was burnt. I should've have went back to ask for a remake but I was in a rush. The people at the counter were nice so I'm sure they wouldn't have minded. This Barnes and Noble is a good location if you're making a quick in and out trip.

    This is a nice store and just enjoyable to hang out. Sits right on Rosecrans - safe environment, and great selection of books, of course! As far as books go they are well stocked with easy to find labeled sections. They have a vast variety and a wide range of authors, all genres and beautifully set up with a nice array of displays showcased throughout. The store is well organized, well-lit, clean, and spacious. Also, there are a variety of seating areas. Super friendly and knowledgable staff - always helpful and kind! Everyone is caring and insightful and gives impressive recommendations based on your tastes or goals. Kudos to the staff for professional, knowledgeable and friendly customer service. They also make ordering books easy. You can get anything you need and pretty fast. A nice browsing atmosphere with other book lovers. Parking is not a problem at all - as it is nestled in a shopping mall situated between Trader Joe's and Old Navy. This place is a 10/10!!!

    *** best service I've ever gotten at a Barnes & Noble *** ENVIRONMENT This Manhattan Beach location is in a shopping center off of Rosecrans Ave near the 405 freeway. Some of my favorite big names surround this store: REI, Trader Joe's, and Old Navy. There's also a BevMo, Office Depot, True Religion Jeans, Mother's Market & Kitchen, Il Fornaio, and a few others. SERVICE Good service - no matter what the company means to me at the end of the day - is always a plus in my book, hence my rating. We must have had five different staff members ask if we were okay and if we needed help finding anything in our short visit here. MY FAVORITE PART... My girls being able to *easily* find the book they wanted as a reward for having a great week in school before testing began. NOT SO FAVORITE PART... They didn't have a book by a relatively local author Dodinsky called "In the Garden of Thoughts" that I have been looking for a while now. PARKING Ample free parking all around. TIP I may be reconsidering my membership with B&N, however, it is convenient because I get free shipping now matter what. Plus there are rewards that come with it. If you have children, I recommend kid's rewards program. OVERALL My most recent visit to this B&N was on 1/22/21. Before going here, I made a conscious effort to find mom and pop bookstores to visit, but on that particular day they either didn't answer the phone or were closed. I'd come here again if needed, but their prices tend to be higher in comparison to the other independent bookstore killer, Amazon. | Goods: 4 | Service: 5 | Environment: 4 | Price: 3 |

    The pearl in the oyster of a bookstore. It makes me sad I do not live closer so this could be my…read moreregular book haven. The world needs more book stores like this. While I was purusing, I heard the sales associates helpiing others with book searches and book club information. It sounds like they have a number of book clubs going at the same time which makes me green with envy. Somebody please open a bookstore like this in Santa Clarita Valley, Ca.! At the time of my visit there was a children's reading event going on in the children's section. There were young adults picking out their spring break reads. There is also a courtyard and coffee shop somewhat attached. I did not try the coffee, but will the next time I am in Manhattan Beach. This is a charming bookstore, well designed, with sooo many staff picks and recommendations. Make sure to pay them a visit when you are in the area. And if you live close by, I hate you :) I paid to park on the street very close to the shop, however there may be other parking I am not sure. Happy Reading!

    I absolutely loved my visit to Pages, a friendly neighborhood bookstore. The shelves are…read morewell-organized and every genre has a great curated selection. The staff are so helpful in finding exactly what you need and chatting about the books, or letting you browse quietly if that's what you'd prefer. I also wanted to shoutout their online ordering system; I ordered a book that wasn't available due to shipping issues, and their staff reached out to me right away to reimburse me and present some other selections. Excellent customer service!
