    They are finally open!!! The "owner/cashier" was super friendly and informative. He let us take a picture with his large RC plane. He was great with my son, very patient and explained what plane we were buying & how we can buy more pieces to have our own runway. Great selection of toys for kids and adults. I'm sure we will be back everytime we have breakfast at Norms!

    I've been a customer at John's for many years. John NO LONGER OWNS the shop. It is still well run and perhaps better organized.

    John runs the place with a personal touch. Lots of variety, parts, books, some clothing, mostly a pleasant visit with a long time friend

    I am a huge fan of reading books…read more I listen to audiobooks when I work out in the gym or go for my daily walks instead of listening to music; however, I truly appreciate the feel of holding a book in my hands and turning page by page to really get into what I am reading. This is the reason I enjoy visiting this bookstore. I can be selective in whichever category I wish to purchase and read at the moment. I also have a paid membership to their discount program, which offers various benefits, including discounts on my purchases. This store is always fully stocked and well-maintained, and its employees are friendly and ready to assist customers with whatever they need. The selection of books and topics to read is endless, and they even offer a clearance and discounted section at the rear of the store. As for me, I have, and will forever, love being around books, which is why I will remain a loyal customer.

    It's been years since I've stepped foot in this particular B&N location, but I found myself here…read morewhile staying with family in the area over the holidays. The good: the store filled an order I'd placed through the app quickly; the bad: half the order wasn't able to be completed because it wasn't actually in stock. I don't know if this was an app error or store error, but it was a bit of a bummer and now I'll have to visit another location for that item. My favorite section to visit as a crafter is Arts & Hobbies, which is on the store's left close to the stationery and gifts area. The cafe is to the right of the entrance. Fiction, sci-fi, and fantasy are toward the middle, while music and collectibles are located toward the back. Something to keep in mind, unlike the Long Beach and Del Amo/Torrance locations, Glendora doesn't have as substantial a bargain book and DIY kit section, which I like to frequent for my nieces. However, the kids' section is pretty sizable and can be found in the back left. This B&N is in the same plaza as Best Buy, PetSmart, and AMC theaters, so it can get busy although there is plentiful parking. I haven't tried the cafe at this particular location - maybe next time!
