Such a fun and practical gift! Each time we've been here it seems they're either understaffed or not enough stockers are cashier trained because it'll be just one cashier until an antsy line queues and then someone notices and comes up to help ring down the line. Good selection of books and games. The front by the cashier also has a fun collection of gift items that change seasonally. There's a cafe in the back but it's usually pretty full so we haven't gone there yet. The store is well organized but maintenance needs to come in to clean the escalator and repaint since it is pretty dirty in some spots which is normal over time but looks like whoever is in charge of regional upkeep maybe hasn't noticed on their visits that this store needs so deep cleaning in some high foot traffic areas. Overall a good albeit pricey place to find your next good read as well as a great place to find gifts for everyone. Cashiers are friendly. Keep up the good work!

It's unfortunate I have to leave this review considering I love books and supporting book stores…read morebut the staff is Extremely lazy, rude, and apathetic. I came in looking for a book but after sometime I couldn't find it, and when I asked for help they didn't want to really help but instead kept ignoring me, seemed bothered I even asked, later came to find out that was the manager-disgraceful behavior. Gave them the benefit of the doubt and asked a different employee but she wasn't very helpful, told me to go look myself despite already telling her I have and I asked her if she would get in trouble if she walked over and helped me (btw the store wasn't very busy) she said she wouldn't get in trouble..but she proceeded to basically say she doesn't want to but I guess fine, and told me she was going to help another customer first despite me being there first but I said okay, and waited for her to come to the section I told her I would be in (where the book I was looking for should be) and when she wasn't there within a reasonable time I looked over and saw she was continuing to "help" every other customer around and stand there, when I talked to her again, she looked like she was caught and it was more of the same apathetic and lazy response, while two other employees (two managers-one was the first one I talked to) were just standing talking and laughing away near by doing nothing. Tried to talk to them about what happened and they didn't seem to genuinely care AT ALL. It made me feel unprioritized and like I didn't matter. Way to make a person walk straight out of the store. Walked out feeling worse than when I came in. Amazon and other sellers are cheaper but people come to Barnes for the service/experience not just books. Overall, consistently disgraceful employees and an unpleasant experience at this location.

Cutest little bookstore there is! I had no idea something from the 1960's would have been preserved…read moreso well with everything still intact (that I could see!) This bookstore had such a good variety of books for all ages and it was very well- organized. The staff here are so welcoming and helpful with any questions we had and customer service was definitely 10/10. They also have this great program where they will buy our books in trade for points that can be used towards your next book purchase. This also helps with why they have such a vast variety of books to choose from. Highly recommended for any of your bookworm needs!

Calvin and the whole crew are super friendly, caring, and--this is clutch for bookstore folks--great at helping readers find books they'll love. The curated collection in the main room is truly well-maintained and sourced, and they've got a ton of catalogued backroom-stock, too, so if you don't see something, be sure to ask for it! They've got a convenient ordering system and text me when my books are in. They buy used books for credit in the store in the form of a point system that is easy to understand. They have local authors and publishers (present company included!) in the store on a regular basis and especially on Sugarhouse Art Walk nights. The music is chill (instrumental math rock was on last time I was in the store, yay!), and the vibe is comfortable. Most importantly, I felt welcomed and like I could find a book for me in CBE. Check them out!

The…read morestore is crowded and somewhat unorganized, but all you have to do is ask, and you will be directed kindly and quickly to what you seek. They can get any book within a reasonable amount of time. It is fun to browse the shelves. It is within walking distance of my home and I often find myself stopping in on a quiet afternoon at the end of a neighborhood walk. If you are a picky person who looks for the bad in everything and has to have everything pretty and perfect this is not the place for you, but if you are someone who can see the hidden treasures that others often miss, and appreciates quirky character and charm you will love this little bookstore.

I love visiting with Richard and I know others do too because there is always a steady stream of loyal customers when I'm there. I also love the bookclub shelf right at the front that has a great collection of reads. It's rare that I buy a book from any other section because it has so many great picks right as you walk in!

GETTING HERE: I…read moresearched my navigation for the nearest Deseret Book and arrived here. Yelp has the address correct, and it's located in a little strip mall next to the Walking Comfort Store and across the lot from In-N-Out. REVIEW: I visited Utah and knew I needed to prioritize a visit to Deseret Book. The selection and setup are incredible! There's so much to choose from, including books, artwork, stickers, figurines, etc., etc. I could have spent hours here. Truly. The service was pretty good, and oh, how I wish I lived closer to one. Of course, there is the website to purchase items, but there's nothing quite like the experience of perusing a bookstore and enjoying the vibe. This was a great visit! I know that Utah has LDS Bookstores on every corner, HAHA, but this location is a great time, all around. Overall value isn't too bad, either. Cough, it's 2025, but nothing outrageous compared to the rest of the world's prices. Come give them a visit!

The lovely staff member, Sage, was kind enough to give us a little run-down on the store, how long they've been around and some of the events that they hold. There are plans for a more formal tea gathering space in the back which will allow for even more amazing events. I love the vibe here and the friendliness that was extended. Even if I'm not sure what to do with all the cool things they sell, I'd feel very comfortable asking about the items and know that I'd be met with a welcoming, patient explanation.

This location of Deseret Book has books, gifts, and a pretty large section of children's items. The…read moredownstairs area is very large, and if you try to go in the back door of the store to avoid all of the parking craziness at the front-beware, as the back door is locked. Upstairs are two different areas-including a fabric store which has a ton of fun fabrics for you to choose from. These are not the same fabrics you will find at Jo-Ann's or anywhere else that sells fabric. The other business upstairs is a framing shop, that has mostly religious pictures-both original and prints for sale. They will also frame anything else that you bring in and did not purchase here. The two women upstairs were very friendly and welcoming, and made me feel like an old friend. If you are looking for a gift, there are plenty of options, and even non-denominational gifts for people of all ages. Plus, the store is such a peaceful place to just browse.

What the what?? How did I miss a full on fabric store inside of Deseret Book? A FABRIC STORE?…read more So, I was in the neighborhood and popped in. Maybe it was just to smell the rolls. But I looked up to the second floor and could have sworn I saw bolts of fabric lining the walls. But this is Deseret Book, right? Up the stairs I go, and sure enough that place is packed with fabric. Maybe technically the thing is a Mormon Handicraft, but there it is under the same roof so I'm calling it part of Deseret Book for now. Here's the low down on the fabric: it's really cute. Like, super darling, adorbs, and totally quiltworthy. Polka dots like crazy, paisley, stripes, and lots of flowery darling things.
