I actually love all the little home décor, paintings and general knick knacks they have here. The Christmas stuff is out and the cute little decorations are to die for. I could wander for hours (on a weekday morning when no one is here!/) but forget about coming on a weekend. It is a madhouse. Try getting some help on the weekends and well...bring a book, you will be waiting a long time. The entrance and exit are these teeny tiny doors where people with big carts are tying to leave and there is no room for them to exit without banging into your shins. The furniture is cheap and simple and sometimes you need and want that :). Over the years I have bought several pieces from Ikea and to be honest I have never had an issue with any. Is it the best quality - no, but then again they don't claim it to be either.
The $1 breakfast can't be beat - it's decent but what do you expect for $1? The café is large but seriously they need a larger serve station and more cashiers to get the line moving. I'm starving and my food is looking right at me - I need to eat!!
Tips - go on the weekday if possible. You can maneuver around the maze like floor plan to your hearts content until you find the cheese (cashiers!). Also wait for sales because they always have them, which is another reason I like them. This weekend they had 20% off all rugs.
Thankfully over the past few years they added a second tier parking level so don't even bother to look for parking on the ground..just go straight up to the second level and you will always find a spot
