    Super sweet girls made us wonderful PSL's. Sweet lady upstairs helped us locate a specific technology book. This Barnes and Noble is the best in the area. Always clean. Smiling faces and more than you could ever ask for. They need to rip up the carpets or have them cleaned. So the little ones can sit on the floor. The smiling faces outweighs this flaw.

    This Barnes and Noble is a great place to hang and/or work from. It is never too busy and the wifi (free) works great. Starbucks Cafe to keep you fueled up. While they have a lot of new folks who come through working at the Cafe, the coffee is surprisingly consistent. Selection of books is good. Magazines are a little more narrow though. Store is always clean and I have found the staff to always be quite friendly.

    I do love a good bookstore and this place use to be a great bookstore. It has changed way too much. They use to have comfortable seating throughout the store, but sadly it is now gone. I will say the folks working there last night were helpful and friendly. I appreciate good service. If I could separate the service score and the employees score the service score would be a four.

    Cheesecake and Coffee! The Coffee was hot and fresh brewed and the refrigerated Cheesecake was okay. It's all just handed to you so there really isn't all that much service.

    Reading is fundamental

    Beautiful, spacious store with a very friendly staff and a great coffee/sandwich/soup cafe that's second to none.

    I was unable to locate the book that their website said was in the store at Triangle Town Center, but the associate made a special effort to find their only copy for me.

    Guy working there with long hair was a real jerk when I politely waited for him to finish what he…read morewas doing on his phone to ask him if they had a book I was looking for. Without looking it up (he stayed on his phone throughout this) he just smiled like it was really funny to smugly say "we usually have it but we just ran out." And that was that. He didn't offer a solution just smiled and soaked in the self-pleasure of his snide answer. There was a painful pause as he waited for my reaction, wanting to relish in it, presumably, but I just said "ok then..?" And shrugged. And clearly disappointed I didn't leave right there he sighed and said "we could order one. Want to do that?" But he didn't offer any info about how much it would be, when it would be in, nothing. I had to pry that info from him. So forget it.

    Hooray for independent booksellers. So & So is a small bookstore. It's not a used bookstore and…read moretheir titles are selective and probably not those you'll find (at least easily) at a mainstream shop. I like that. Sharing a space with an architectural firm, what you see when you first walk in, is what you get. There's not aisles and aisles of books, but that's what makes it easy to spend some time looking. The children and young adult section is a decent size, surprisingly, so it will give the kids something to do while you spend time looking. Mostly current authors, and a fair mix of biographical, non-fiction and informational, So & So does its job -- offering something different when time and boredom with the common stuff can make book shopping a chore. None of that is an issue here.

    I love bookstores in general, particularly Barnes and Noble. This location is awesome because of…read moreall the other gems nearby. Parking can be a bit of a nightmare during a weekday lunch hour. This location is a very small B&N, but there is a nice selection of books nonetheless. I love stopping in when I'm in Raleigh for a quick lunch nearby. Great place to browse when short on time.

    I typically love Barnes & Noble, but this particular location fascinated me and not in a good way…read more First off, Barnes & Noble is in the Village District, so there's plenty of parking. Inside is like any other Barnes & Noble location; it's bright, clean, easy to navigate, and there are areas to sit and read. There were lots of sections that had books on sale for 1/2 off as well as non-book items for a discount. However, this store is probably the smallest I've been to which results in less options. What dropped my rating to 3 stars is my biggest pet peeve I've never seen in any new book store until my most recent visit...authors were not in alphabetical order! I was looking for Dean Koontz in particular, an author that is often compared to Stephen King. There were lots of Stephen King soft and hardcovers, however, I couldn't find a single Dean Koontz novel. Not only that, but the horror section had Stephen King both on top and bottom shelves as well as other authors that were mixed in but weren't letters "j" or "l", causing some chaos with finding authors. My husband didn't notice until I pointed it out and he too, thought that was strange. I did buy a pack of fun pens for $5.25 while I was there which was half off, not a bad deal for a novelty item! The cashier was friendly, it was a short interaction for a pack of pens so not much else was needed beyond that. I don't think my OCD will allow my mind to want to come back, though. I can't get past the books not being in alphabetical order by author's names, which is crazy for a Barnes & Noble.
