I still cannot believe that Pittsburgh has no independent bookstores! As a result of this I have ended up spending a fair bit of time at this Barnes and Noble location. As with all Barnes and Noble stores it has a cafe and a decent selection of popular titles. I am a bit surprised at how smallish it is compared to other stores in this chain.
The bargain section seems to be perpetually picked through. The selection is ok in that it is well stocked but sometimes a bit disorganized from other customers pawing through the books, less popular titles are a bit hard to find. The customer service here is pretty good.
They could use more chairs.
