I try to avoid going to stores in the airports because they charge too much. They were fine. I only…read morecame here to purchase water and got some. The price wasn't great, but I had no choice but to pay. The water was cold which was strange to me because I was going onto a cold plane and cold water on a cold plane makes for a colder trip than usual. Had the price been better, I would have bought two bottles of water. The big bottle wasn't very big, it was just bigger than the smaller bottle. The person in front of me had an issue with her card, so the cashier had to restart the machine. It seemed to take a long time and I was grateful that I was boarding at the gate across from them. But that was the only really weird hiccup. Otherwise, I got my water, paid and was set to go.

Amazing. Wandering in to get a preflight drink, I picked up an extra copy of a magazine and left…read morethe store with a smile. After placing my drink and magazine on the counter, the cashier scanned my items and my $20.00 bill. Wearing sunglasses, he completed my transaction quickly and efficiently. He is blind. This was my first encounter with a visually disabled person in a customer service capacity and he thoroughly impressed me. Kudos to the company's HR department for being open minded and progressive. This experience reminded me of Stephen Curry's catchphrase, "I can do all things.". Point proven. Inspiring 5 stars times two.

The store is spacious and well organized, with clearly arranged sections that make it easy to explore different genres. Walking through the aisles feels relaxed, and there is a wide selection of books ranging from best sellers and new releases to classics and specialty topics. One thing that stood out to me is how the store still maintains the traditional bookstore experience even though it is located inside a busy shopping center. The layout encourages browsing, and it is easy to spend a good amount of time looking through titles and discovering books you were not originally planning to buy. Another highlight is the range of non-book items available throughout the store. You will find journals, gifts, educational toys, and other reading-related merchandise, which adds variety to the experience. The atmosphere is calm compared to many other areas of the mall, and the store tends to attract a mix of students, families, and casual readers looking for a quiet place to browse. Overall, Barnes & Noble at Ala Moana Center is a great stop if you enjoy bookstores and want a comfortable place to explore books while spending time at the mall.

This specific store is noted for being a unique "cultural hub" in Honolulu with several standout…read morefeatures that distinguish it from a standard mainland location. 1. It serves as a major community gathering point, often hosting local author signings and cultural events that reflect the islands' literary scene. So now you can get your copy of Eat Lava Pray signed. 2. The in-store café serves official Cheesecake Factory cheesecakes, so you can skip the restaurant lines. 3. Reflecting Hawaii's deep cultural ties to Japan, this location features an exceptionally large manga and anime section that rivals international bookstores. 4. The store maintains a robust physical media section with a curated selection of vinyl records. I found Pois Don't Cry and Lei Lady Lei.

By the time we arrived at our gate, I was excited to see a variety of shops and restaurants in this terminal. Most were closed since we flew out on a Sunday. We wanted to purchase snacks, a neck pillow, and a postcard. This shop offers a variety of souvenirs but only postcard books, not single postcards, snacks, drinks, and neck pillows. The neck pillows are pricy ($36.99) but comfortable. The snacks and drinks are typical. We especially like the Aloha Maid drinks and Pineapple Mint Shaka tea. Overall, I was happy to see an open souvenir and snack shop located in this part of the airport and we found most of what we were looking for here.

Shoots, This Place is the So Da Bomb! Came in yesterday with two shopping carts stuffed with books…read moreand honestly didn't know what to expect -- but wow, this place totally exceeded my expectations! The owner greeted me right away with that warm, aloha spirit energy. No attitude, no long drawn-out process. She got straight to scanning my old dusty books while I waited, and when she was done, she texted me -- yes, texted me -- to let me know. Walked up, got my receipt, got my quote. Super professional, super smooth. Here's the best part: while I was waiting, I browsed around and found three gifts for my grandchildren that I knew they'd love. So in one trip I freed up a ton of space at home from books that had been taking up way too much room and knocked out some gift shopping. Win-win-win! The whole setup is easy too -- rolled the carts right from my car into the store, no stress. My friend was chillin' in the massage chair outside the whole time, so nobody's time was wasted. I was originally just gonna dump everything at Goodwill. So glad I didn't. I'm already planning to come back with my old DVDs and CDs just sitting my shed in the backyard. If you've got stuff collecting dust at home, bring it here first. You might walk out with cash in your pocket and a smile on your face. Highly recommend. 5/5, no question!
