I have been to this Barnes & Noble so many times in the past and keep forgetting to write a review…read moreon them. This is a one-stop book store for all your needs. They have a vast selection of books from fiction to non-fiction, bibles, covers of bibles, cookbooks, celebrity books, autobiography, trend magazines along with other magazines.. wall to wall all the way in the back. They have a big selection of children's books too. Prices vary depending what you buy. They used to sell CD's too. Have bought few in the past. They have a little corner when you walk in to your right that sell gifts, knick knack stuff that are practical, beautiful, and unique. I have purchased few in the past. Walked in yesterday and got a warm, friendly hello from couple of their employees. They were eager to help me and see what I was looking for. I needed a few cookbooks, couple of celebrity books that always captures my attention and I was lucky enough that they had what I was looking for. If they don't have it, they will order it for you. Once it arrives, you will get an email, a text or a phone call from them to go and pick it up. Don't forget to use your 10% discount at the front. You have to be a member of the store. Store is BIG, clean, nicely organized alphabetically according to what you are looking for. All aisles are easy to navigate and it's pretty quiet in there which I love. They even have few armchairs to sit down and read a book. Great store..hands down!! Parking in the back shared with few other businesses. One gender neutral restroom and it is ALWAYS clean. Have used it few times. Thank you Barnes & Noble, all employees for your loyalty, dedication and always being kind and willing to help. Appreciated.

Got me some children's books and a non-fiction book, kind of a reading challenge as I'm sadly very occupied with my smartphone. And it's refreshing to see a whole wall of magazines. Every month, if you buy a children's book, you can buy a featured, popular kids' book for $9.99. I took advantage and love the amusing, heavily discounted "Mother Bruce". Many gift options as well- LP's, Legos, journals, mugs, candles, puzzles and stuffed animals, though they are overpriced. The store is in what looks like a converted theater. A big plus is the huge parking lot in the back, for the whole block. Really appreciate having a large, clean brick and mortar bookstore to immerse yourself in.

While I was in the hospital recovering from surgery, I would call this shop to order Pokémon cards…read more Dustin always took the time to help me out, no matter what I needed. I even had family members--who had never stepped foot inside a comic book or card shop--go in to pick up my orders, and Dustin made them feel completely welcome every single time. After my surgery, each time I stopped by, he'd celebrate my recovery, show genuine kindness, and always encourage me. I went from walking in with a cane, barely able to stand, to coming in regularly just to hang out, talk cards, and enjoy the atmosphere. This place isn't just a store--it's a community. Dustin and the team make you feel like family. I can't recommend them enough!

We'll usually go in and window shop and she has a blast looking at all the cool stuff. Today was like another of those experiences but with an extra very refreshing cherry on top. Sarah who worked here, was absolutely fantastic. From entering the store and welcoming us with a warm greeting and asking us if we need assistance to the gold standard checkout experience. We love coming here for the amazing products and nostalgic items as well as the amazing selection and atmosphere. Everything is very fairly priced and valued really well. I always enjoy coming here for my daughter and for my own interest. I hope this store stays here at the Sherman Oaks Fashion Square mall for years to come and it's highly recommended for all. Thanks Sarah and Mind Games!

We absolutely love this store…read more Anytime we're at the mall we always make sure that we stop in. We're a big board game and puzzle family and this is the best store for both of those things in the San Fernando Valley that I'm aware of. It is located inside the mall so be aware of that. They have a good selection of games, they have a really excellent selection of puzzles. I'm sure this is driven by what sells for them but they have way too many Funko pop figures for me. That's not my thing, and it takes up a lot of space in the store. But I'm sure they sell a lot of them. They also have some great toys, although not a great selection of them. Everyone here who works here is friendly and helpful. We've never had any issues there. I will say their recommendations are not always great. The main thing that does bring this store down a little bit is just how expensive some of the things can be. It's pretty often that you can find the same item for less money on Amazon. I know that makes me sound heartless, and I love supporting shops like this, but sometimes the price difference is very considerable. But overall it's a great store, definitely check it out.

This is a late, but important review! We were invited to my child's classmate's birthday party in…read moreearly October. We didn't know the family or child well, only that he was turning four and has an older brother. I purposely wanted to shop local and support an independent business, and a quick search on Yelp led me here. We arrived about an hour before closing on Saturday, which was great because parking meters end at 4pm and we found parking out front easily. We were greeted by an employee behind the desk as we walked in. She asked if there was anything she could help us find, and I let her know we were first time customers looking for a birthday gift with the details mentioned above. She let us know the layout of the store, her suggestions, but let us look freely. Over time more customers arrived with small children, and received the same courteous service. The store is clean and curated. I appreciated seeing well made toys and items inspiring imaginative play, rather than cheap plastic with distracting lights or sounds. I eventually chose a doctor play set as well as some items for my own children, such as animal figures and stamp markers. They offer free gift wrapping, which is a nice touch. The one alarming fact that stood out is that there were many empty storefronts on their block, so it's more important than ever to support our local economy. Their prices reflect investment in well made items, so I would not come here expecting big box store deals. In a world full of Target and Amazon, I would rather spend my money supporting a local, independent business. We had a great experience here and will definitely be back with our kids this holiday season.

It was so much fun to look around and discover new toys, games, stuffed animals, and dolls and nice when we got something new. I think it's a wonderful childhood experience to peruse a toy store and I'm glad that Tom's Toys is around to continue the tradition. Fun to look around and shop here. What an AWESOME toy store! Very clean. It is much bigger inside than it looks from the outside. Lots of toys from great brands to choose from for all ages and a great variety. Legos, teddy bears, dolls, hot wheels etc. I think they may have it all! Came in here to buy a gift. I got the cutest, age-appropriate stuffed animal at such a great value. Prices in this store are very reasonable and comparable to online prices and sometimes even better if there's a sale. Plus, love supporting small, local businesses. Customer service was awesome. So helpful and kind. Pointed me in the direction of what I came in for. They even offered to wrap my gift for me. Metered parking and garage parking close by. In a walkable area with other shops and restaurants.

The staff is beyond friendly and, even though this location is small, it has a fantastic array of comics and other collectables. Even with my pull list at their other location, I always find something I have to pick up on my quick visit. They also have fantastic signings here throughout the year so there's a good chance that you can meet either one of your favorite writers or be introduced to your next obsession. My only complaint isn't even their fault & it's the parking. Like most of this area of NoHo, it's all limited street parking with meters or you're going to have to cross your fingers that you can find something in the residential streets in the area. But honestly, it's worth it. If you live in the area and are looking for your new favorite neighborhood shop, this is it.

This is one of the most elitist comic book shops in the city. The staff are dismissive at best, and…read morethat is if they acknowledge you at all. The stock is about what you would find in any other comic shop, with the added benefit of being more expensive. I came in today, a Monday, to shop back issues, but the back issue bins were blocked, and covered in the new comics due out on Wednsday, with big signs thwt say "do not touch". I would guess this is why every other comic book shop on the planet has limited or no hours on TUESDAY to prepare Wednesday books. Either way, 25% of the store, you know the stuff collectors want, is unavailable to even shop. There are better and more hospitable shops in Burbank.

The lady working said if I needed any help, just ask her. I didn't end up buying anything but I walked around the store to see what they have. They had some Mario stuff and other characters as well. They also have this little coin dispenser game where it will dispense a little toy if you put in some coins.
