    Huge store with all types of used and new books. I only had time to look in the children's section…read morewhich was huge and decently organized by categories such as (sensory/cause and effect, holidays, popular authors, language, potty training, family). You could spend a good chunk of time browsing through the bins and shelves. It is great that they have a train table in the kids area so they kids can play while you browse the books. I was searching for Lunar New Year books, but couldn't find any. They had a bin for the big holidays like Christmas, Halloween, Easter and a general holiday bin for smaller holidays. The employees were nice and can system search by author/title, but they couldn't do a search by general topic/genre.

    The Used Book Superstore in Burlington is my personal money pit -- and honestly, I'm fine with it…read more I've never managed to leave with fewer than ten books, and at this point, I don't even pretend I will. The selection feels endless. Every genre, every niche, and then, just when you think you've seen it all, there's a wall of Blu-rays, DVDs, video games, board games, and random bits of memorabilia you didn't know you wanted until they're already in your basket. The prices are almost insulting to other stores. Seriously, I've paid more for a cup of coffee than I have for some of the books here. You'd almost feel guilty... except you don't, because you're too busy carrying out a stack taller than your torso. The staff is excellent -- actually helpful, not the fake "let me know if you need anything" kind. They've tracked down what I came in looking for, and then somehow convinced me to walk out with three more titles I didn't even know existed. My shelves at home are groaning under the weight of their recommendations, but sure, suggest me another series. Why not. I've been a regular for about a year now, and as long as I live in Massachusetts, this will be one of the few places I actually look forward to throwing money at. You never know what you'll find here, which is exactly why I keep coming back.

    Dude this place is so nice I'd move to Lexington if I could to be closer if I wasn't a dirty poor…read more Regardless, what I really appreciate is the place is very spacious for games, selection is wide enough, prices are pretty fair, and I like what they do for folks in the community. The bistro is shockingly good like idk what's going on back there. If prizing could be a little better for events that'd be great but for 99% of the population that doesn't matter :)

    Don't miss Omar's Bistro (food offerings at Omar's, order near the cashier) or Pixel Paradise…read more(board and video game/PC cafe on the 3rd floor). Omar's Bistro has a cute, comic-inspired menu focusing on bar food style cuisine (falafel, fries, burgers, etc). According to one employee we spoke to, practically everything is made from scratch thanks to the wonderful (perhaps overqualified) chef, including the ketchup and bread. My friends and I ordered falafel, fries, the DM burger, and the donuts. Everything was tasty - I really liked how the fries weren't too salty and the ketchup was a nice sweet tomato sauce - and we all loved the donuts, which aren't your typical shape but were pillowy with a good amount of chew. Highly recommend dipping in both the strawberry jam and the vanilla brown butter. Pixel Paradise is clean and spacious, with areas for VR gaming, Smash Ultimate, and PC gaming. Decoration is modern, complete with custom desk mats and flashy lights. My friends and I played some board games (free, by the way!) and hung out in the cafe area, which is well-lit and has plenty of seating for hanging out. They're open til 7pm or 9-10pm depending on the day, making this a perfect place to play games and catch up over snacks. Omar's itself provides consistently warm and friendly service, whether that's the employees at Pixel Paradise, anyone taking food orders and bringing it out, or in the main store providing recommendations. All in all a fantastic local business to have in town! I always look forward to adding to my small manga collection whenever I drop by.
