The Mr. and I stopped in to browse, hoping to find a few titles by Donald Goines, and ended up flipping through some great historical books about local cities. We didn't buy anything this time, but it was still a really lovely visit. The atmosphere was quiet, cozy, and inviting -- exactly what you'd hope for in a bookstore. And the staff? Kind, helpful, and present without being intrusive. Whether you're looking to pick up something specific or just want to get lost among the shelves for a bit, this B&N is a great place to spend a calm afternoon.

I was here on a Sunday morning before Christmas and the store was bustling with shoppers. Also, the…read morecafe line was long.

Usually they wait until the day after Christmas to do this. Boxed Christmas cards were buy one get one free, which is pretty much the same thing. While they didn't have the planner I typically get, you can't beat a $7.00 deal for sure!

What a cute little shop with over 200 vendors! We came during an event and there was a woman with…read moretaste testing for her jams with crackers. She also had meatballs too. It was only $9. There was tons of different crafts and things to look at. We went to the top section of the floor and we saw that they had a craft class going on. I even found this syrup I use at the store for super cheap. A lot of the items were affordable and unique. It was a super cute gift shop.

This is such a fun place to shop and to take classes at. It is fairly easy to find and there is a…read moreton of parking. I have taken 4 different classes here. All of the possible classes are listed in their website. I would be hard to pick a favorite class. Each of the classes is taught by a different artist or expert in that class. There are 2 different areas where the classes are taught one in the back and one in the middle section. The website has a description of each class that is offered as well as the requirements that you need to bring for the class. The ability to walk out with a project that you learned how to make is priceless. I highly recommend going to a class at My New Favorite Thing or just going shopping. Local artists each get a section to display. I will be going back for more projects.

I thought this store was a gem in the crown of the great used bookstores I've been to in my life…read more This medium-sized store was packed to the gills, but not overflowing with boxes on the floor and triple rows of books on shelves. The books were in very good condition, I happened to buy 4 of them, and they were all in mylar coverings and very reasonably priced. I was super impressed with the selection, not the size, perhaps, but the quality. There were a lot of things that made me pull them off the shelf and Other people mentioned the guy behind the counter. We greeted each other when I entered, and he was listening to the radio and talking to himself ("the French resistance saving Paris is the biggest myth in history", or something like that) but other than seeming a little strange, he wasn't unfriendly or unprofessional to me. I'm sorry others have had bad experiences here, but I will hop, skip, and jump back here on my next visit to Detroit for some quality used books for my collection. This is a place where you could find a great gift for somebody you really like.

The guy was super rude to me because my books were dusty. Next time I'll donate them to a library…read moreinstead of collecting a piddly 5 dollars. It would have been one thing to just ask me to dust them or maybe just sarcastically ribbed me about it a little, but he was genuinely bitter about it! "Why clean them when you can just dump them on me?" he said. Like okay, I'm not perfect and didn't realize quite how dusty these old books are, but at the same time, maintaining the physical condition of books is part of YOUR job, my guy. I didn't need that crappy attitude. Hopefully one of the books I gave him has termites in them or something. Go somewhere else!

I really miss Border's Books so much. Some of their locations became BAM. When I get I chance I…read morelike to road trip to Sandusky, OH to BAM because they still have their coffee shop, Joe Mugs, and I really enjoy a bookstore with a cafe. I have not been to particular location book store for decades, but the moment I stepped through the door all of my Border's Books memories came flooding back with all the good feels and all the good vibes. I really missed coming to a place like this. Like Border's they have some great deals, fun products, and a nice selection. The kids love manga, and they had a nice section. A very helpful and enthusiastic worker helped them find some books and had a lengthy and fun conversation. I simply enjoyed walking around hunting some good finds. Since I am big into holiday shopping, I was excited to find fun books and trinkets. Plus, anyone who has listened to the news lately and has gone to other big box shops, there is a bit of a toy shortage and they seemed to have plenty of good ones here. But I was informed that they do not have their full stock of books and items due to the current shortages. For me the only reason this establishment does not get five stars is due to a lack of coffee shop. I miss the full experiences, but if I remember correctly, this location never had a cafe. Since I am very big into coffee, I would have frequented this store more if there was a spot for some caffeine and snacks. But now that I have seen what they do have to offer, I am sure we will stop by again soon.

Books. Books. Books…read more I'm slowly getting my momentum back when it comes to reading, and it was time I put a dent into my wishlist. I came here the other day specifically for Pete Souza's new book, which is hysterical and amusing after only three pages. I would've saved around 10 bucks had I ordered online, but I couldn't wait 3-5 days. The employees don't seem too high strung, and seem very eager to help you out, which is great because it can be annoying when it's obviously that you need help, yet staff just walks by you. When I initially entered the store the first thing to catch my eye was a mug. I end up picking it up, only to add to the 40+ mugs I already have and don't really need. In addition to mugs they're tons of gadgets, cards, keychains, ect... This store almost feels like a an outlet Barnes and Nobles meets Borders. Plan on return to do some Christmas shopping for friends/family who also loves books.

This place is such a fun mix of quirky and quiet, with just the right energy to browse at your own pace. I found two Danielle Steele books, a cute bookmark, and the most adorable jelly belly keychain (yes, it actually has jelly beans inside -- Grandma's favorite!). The staff was polite and helpful, and as always, the merch selection didn't disappoint. I love checking out the mini guitars, comics, and all the unique fiction picks they stock. There's just something about this store that keeps you coming back, even when you're "just looking." Highly recommend if you're in the area -- especially if you're gift-hunting or just want to spend a little time among books, fandom finds, and cool surprises all while being economical!

We went in here on opened day (October 30) and found they had quite a bit to offer... including free coffee while you shop. :) We didn't really need anything when we walked in, but we walked out with over $100 worth of stuff. Books start at just 99 cents, they had jeans for $7.99, DVD movies for 99 cents and sooooo much more! This store is very clean and organized - as it should be since it just opened. Hopefully they can keep it clean and organized. If so, this will be one of my new places to shop. Make sure you sign up for the Ollie's Army card. With the card they track your purchases and will send you a savings certificate once you spend $250.00 total. They will also send you out special deals from time to time. When you register the card online, they will send you a 10% off certificate as well.

They advertise far lower prices which really makes no sense. A retailer sold it to them, they have to mark-up the price to turn a profit. Not much room to lower the price for us. The highlight of this visit was listening to one of the associates bitch about having to assist a customer. "Why don't you call one of the other three people in the store, I've been here since 5:00am and I'm tired." It's only 1:30 in the afternoon. Are you serious? Maybe Ollie is working these boys too hard? Another oddity. A relief cashier came up and rang up one customer to relieve a long line. Then walked away as we approached his check out. There were still three people behind us! The other ladies seem nice and the store does have an incredibly huge selection. I will admit that on occasion, you'll catch a rare, but great find at a decent price. 07/25
