| - I love Barnes and Noble!! This location is large and well-stocked, but the bathrooms were atrocious and I don't use the term lightly (this is huge anomaly - as a rule, you can count on nice bathrooms in B&N). This is really a big deal if you're a huge book nerd and want to stay there all day, so for that, they lose a star.
B&N in general:
They have a wonderful selection of books, laid out in tempting ways that inspire me to try new authors and genres. I can walk around forever, browsing and picking out an enormous stack of books. They almost always have the title I'm looking for, and they'll happily order, in the unlikley event that they don't.
Their game selection (board games, card games, travel games, toys, the works!) is always wonderful (though a bit pricey) - I almost always choose them over a toy store.
For large, beautiful coffee table books, books as gifts, travel books, etc., they are a wonderful go-to. The magazine section tends to be pretty extensive, and the cafe is staffed with nice people, really fabulous tea and coffee supplies and good eats.
