I have fond memories of B&M - it's where I spent many hours during my high school years attempting to find girls with ZERO success.
I enjoy reading garbage magazines, sippen on coffee, and people watching. I avoid B&M on sats but I've been coming here weekdays about an hour and a half before close and always am able to get a free table by the cafe.
They have a large selection of everything to read and there's always interesting people watching. On my last visit I saw a lonely talkative man ask the cashier at the cafe for a side of whip cream and then continue to talk her ears off while you can tell she was trying to finish her side work so she could get out. Then there's the creepy old guy making conversation with two middle school/high school girls with small talk - Damm I'm starting to get old if I can't even tell their age.
I'm cheap and don't like to buy magazines or books so B&M provides an outlet for me and for that they deserve 4 stars.
