That would be fine, if the staff were friendly and efficient. Instead, on my two visits I have found them to be apathetic and sort of annoyed that you're there.

This store is awesome, so many magazines, books and out of town newspapers. Very cool spot, coffees…read moreand snacks too. Well worth the visit.

Really bad experience this morning. Watched the owner tell an old man to move to a different table…read morewith fewer chairs. She then told me it was because he was smelly and that "nobody wants to sit with him." Shockingly dehumanizing. Not cool. Used to enjoy this place but will not go back.

Well, the sign out front says "Reids" but all the online listings say "Read's." I forgot to ask…read morethem which was right. A nice bookstore, mostly used paperbacks. They also have a wide selection of new magazines, plus a few tables of new books. The cafe looked decent, although I didn't order anything so I can't comment on the quality of the food. The espresso machine was nothing fancy, but looked like it could make a good espresso drink (not like some of them I've seen/bought from that seem more like regular coffee makers disguised as espresso machines). I voted "not wheelchair accessible" since, while the door is accessible, the shelves are way too close together to navigate a chair through.

They've recently switched up their supplier of coffee beans. They're using two local suppliers,…read moreJust Us Coffee for their regular brewed coffee, and Down East Coffee for their espresso-based drinks, all ground fresh when brewed.

Chapters is a mega bookstore with a Starbucks cafe inside and attached to the Crystal Palace…read moreamusement park. Chapters is very similar to the Barnes & Noble Booksellers chain in the USA, most locations there offering Starbucks too. This Chapters store is pretty well organized and offers a great selection of books, literature, guides, and magazines, plus a limited selection of music & movies, games, cards, house warming gifts, candles, and soaps. There are also discount book tables too, plenty of kids books and hockey history books. I like the selection of local history books of New Brunswick and the Maritimes here. As a shopper from the USA, I immediately notice many titles in stock have two prices: US and Canada (higher). Those titles I'll only browse, make notes, and wait until I get back to the states for the lower prices and sales taxes. If I absolutely wanted the book immediately and couldn't wait, then I would suck it up and buy it. Nonetheless, I can enjoy my favourite Starbucks drink while reading a good book or magazine.
