Well-organized across a wide range of genres and interests, the inventory is a pleasure to browse. Lots of lovely gifts and toys, too, including local and California-themed items. Service is welcoming and friendly, with knowledgeable booksellers. Parking is ample and the surrounding area has lots of cute little shops to browse as well. A delightful place to visit and shop!

The Book Jewel instantly brought me back to the neighborhood bookstores of years past--warm,…read morewelcoming, and genuinely cozy. It has the kind of atmosphere that invites you to slow down, grab a book, and settle in for a while. Though small in scale, the shop is thoughtfully laid out and manages to offer a little bit of everything. The seating area, with its comfy chairs, rugs, and soft lighting, really adds to the charm and makes the space feel lived-in and inviting. There's even a sweet, sectioned-off area just for the littles, which is a lovely touch. We didn't manage to spot the store cat (must've been on a break), but we did find some great books, so no complaints there. Parking was easy thanks to the large shared lot, which made the visit even more stress-free. We'll definitely be back.

We do go to this location more often than other Barnes locations because it is closer but once…read moreagain, we went in last night and Jasmine was visibly horrible to us. We walked in, she glared at us- I tried not to think much of it, but as she was finishing ringing me up I looked up to thank her and she was literally grimacing at me, and this was after she tried to hurriedly ring me up without even asking if I was a rewards member (I am) or anything else. I keep trying to give her the benefit of the doubt because I also work in retail, but girl just seems miserable. Literally I have NO other issues with any other employee there, everyone else has been so kind so I brought my review up to 4 stars from 3. But if you're going to give me a dirty look Jasmine, wait until I turn around. This is a smaller location but I'll continue to visit, I just really hope Jasmine isn't there- it's always uncomfortable when she is.

Honestly so disappointed in the customer service of this location now…read more This is a long one. I used to go to the previous location and customer service was always on point. Sales associates were friendly, helpful, and always down to talk about books. Now... I feel like I'm a bother for just wanting to buy my books and leave. This experience was the one that kinda left me wondering why do I bother with this location... (It's the closest location to me soo I guess there's that) First waiting 5 mins when multiples registers are open and only one other patron making a purchase for an associate to finally walk back to their register to help us. Young lady ended up being super friendly and all was fine - she's why this gets a redemption of 3 stars - Stardew pin gal you're cool. My family and I walk out I see a bookmark I wanted and u turn back in line. I get helped by a different woman - blond curls (really pretty hair, also I know both your names but don want you in trouble just disappointed) - who seemed completely bothered by helping me. Ok whatever we all have our days. She lets me know my membership is expired...something stardew lady missed. I ask damn ok I wasn't informed can I bring back my books return and repurchase and re up my membership. Now she seemed doubly annoyed and bothered. Come back in a few days she says. I let her know: no no we just walked out with the books they're here. She responds I know just come back in two days..... I look back at the line - empty. Umm so you want me to come back?? Yeah and just talk to whoever is here and explain what you want. Confused I walked out and hear her sigh and when I looked back the three sales associates went back to being huddled and chatting. Double checked policy.... Nope not a policy thing returning books.... TO REPURCHASE WITH MY REUPPED SUB is not against policy. Called a different store they said yeah they should've just done it in the moment. Checked stores hours not close to closing so that's not it. There have been other instances of weird stand off behavior that has left me wondering WTF is going on... Look y'all I'm not gonna tell you how to live your lives or where you should be working, just remember both sides of the counter are human and in a world where being a BIPOC is getting more and more dangerous, a friendlier attitude can go a long way.

Why is Hudson News our only option at Airports!? Freaking LAX!…read more They have self check out which is nice and convenient. I feel like these stores aren't usually busy so not sure how necessary self check out was. But it's here and so that's a good thing for fast & easy checkout. I dislike lines and usually end up at Hudson News to avoid a sprawling line at Starbucks or McD's. Their prices are expensive but they have a wide array of drinks and snacks, a few gifts like See's Candies you can bring to others. They don't have a lot of coffee drink options though which will never cease to surprise me. And when you check out your coffee drinks, prepare for sticker shock. A bottled coffee and water cost me $13.33, sigh.

I would recommend that not subscribing. it took almost half an hour to tell customer service I…read morewanted to cancel my subscription and to send me a final bill. I was tired of getting bills endlessly and not knowing when I was paid up to. the final straw was the billing calls, so I told them cancel my subscription and send me a final bill because they kept insisting that i make a payment. What they failed to tell me was they couldn't cancel my subscription. I got another call from their billing center and told them I canceled 2 weeks prior when they called, again they insisted I pay what was still owing and they told me they couldn't cancel and that I needed to call customer service which I did. They wouldn't take no to canceling. They rep said she couldn't adjust my bill reflecting I should only be billed for 18 days ?? They are a headache to deal with.

I signed up a few years ago but hardly used it. When i signed up it was $9.99 a month for digital…read more Then i looked at my billing one day and found out they switched from $9.99 to $34.99 a month and i was like what's going on. Well i never had a chance to call them or dispute it so i decided i'm just to cancel them. So as i read everyone's review on their customer service issues i was shocked. So the best thing to do is don't call them just have the bank stop payment on future payments. As for me i just changed my credit card # and got it replaced and they never got another penny. I'm glad i done that. If your dissatisfied do what i did. Cut them out monetarily. :)

I wasn't even looking for it specifically but after she mentioned it was the last one, I just had to take a look. It is super cute, so I purchased it. It's my first B&N tote bag and I don't regret buying it! I also walked out with two new books and a frappe, of course!

I was able to stock up on a variety of foods for an early breakfast for my parents and I to have before our early flight. Of all their options their Blissful Pretzel Bun Trio Mini Ham & Turkey sandwiches caught my eye to get for my parents. I got one of their Southwest Chili Chicken salads that comes in a plastic jar. I of course refeuled the group with water from here and a Pineapple Kombucha Tea. These were all the perfect selections that held us over on this very early morning 6am flight. The lines goes in waves of stretching out the door but if you let that cool down and the people pass to rush to their gates then the there is literally no line. The man at the counter was so kind and helpful making sure I had extra condiments and utensils for my meal. It always feels nice to be around nice people.
