Barnes & Noble

Incorrectly posted review

NOT GOOOOD!!! NOT HAPPY!!!
Short and not so sweet, Went online to buy a book (And I hardly never read!) At the Peobody Barnes & Noble, The book which I think you should check out! Was The Survivors Club (AWSOME) Well Ive only got threw ¼ of the book because I had to give it back! Anyway paid for the book with credit card did the over night thing and that was 9 days ago, called and they said sorry would you like to re-​order it!!!

Peabody Barnes & Noble = «Yay! I’m a fan.»
Not «Woohoo! As good as it gets!», only because the size of this location doesn’t allow it to have everything other BN’s have. I don’t expect that every BN will be as large and «happening» as Burlington, but at least Walpole’s BN is a little more organized, and has more stuff. Their parking situation is also not as bad. The Northshore Mall on any day nearby to the holidays is a NIGHTMARE!

A good place to go and read Us Weekly. Don’t know what’s worse, sitting in the café and reading their magazines, or breaking out my Kindle (not the Nook). Eitherway, hospitality or apathy, nobody seems to mind. :)

Great store and great staff. I like the selection, most of the books I’m looking for are here when i ask for them. I took away one star because sometimes it’s difficult to get help. Not because they don’t care, but because they’re all so busy all the time. Usually very clean and everyone is friendly.

Still ove hanging out here and trying out new books, mostly because of the Starbucks café — one of my favorite places =)
So — I really use my Kindle more than I buy books — but I still really like going to B&N so I’ll give it 4 stars.

I like Barnes & Noble just fine. They have books. All the popular ones, and some of the not so much weird ones.. .and a big selection of magazines.
I like them a lot right now, because i just found and old gift card knocking around in my car, and it still had money on it! All of it! $ 50 bucks worth.
So, I’m going to find something at B&N to like $ 50 worth soon.

I visit here a lot. I’ve always been a fan of Barnes and Noble because of the Starbucks café inside, the free wifi and the comfy chairs. Overall, this Barnes and Noble is very nice and has a warm atmosphere. The bathrooms have always been clean when I’ve been there too.
My biggest issue with this store is that the upholstered chairs are beat beyond belief. They are so worn down that they are very uncomfortable to sit in. I can’t sit in one for more than five minutes because they are so misshapen. So bad for the posture! I wish they would replace these as they are way past usable in my opinion. I always end up sitting in the wooden chairs they have, which are far better and more comfortable for extended periods of sitting. It bums me out though because curling up in a big upholstered chair at Barnes and Noble used to be one of my favorite pastimes.
Another thing to keep in mind is if you are working on the wifi, it kicks you off every two hours. It’s no big deal and I can’t complain since it’s free. But if you are on a corporate VPN, it is kind of a pain because you have to re-​login to everything, which takes about 10 minutes of your time every two hours. Note that there are only four or five electrical outlets in the place too, so you need to scope those out and know where they are if you’re going to be on your laptop for a while and have lame battery life like I do.
If you have kids, there is a fantastic children’s section and now a whole new toys area. My 2.5 year old loves to go here to look at books, color with the paper and crayons provided in the children’s section, and play at the train table and lego station in the toy area… not to mention play with all the toys for sale. She is easily kept entertained here for one to two hours. I usually have to drag her out of there! I get an iced coffee at the Starbucks café in the store when we get there so I can keep up with her! :)

This Barnes and Noble Is Awesome !!!
Very organized, nice staff, great selection of books, cd’s, Dvds and it nice on the outside and on the inside.
Very Nice Barnes and Noble GO THERE!!!

I have been to plenty of Barnes and Nobles, this one is by far the best.
The staff is more than willing to assist you and they are very polite and friendly. The vibe is relaxed and the Starbucks makes perfect coffee and the employees there are absolute dolls. I love the rows of magazines from around the world, I finally found a place that carries English music magazines!
Deserves 5 stars easily.

Of the three Barnes and Noble stores that I spend time in (I try to hit one every weekend!), this is my favorite. Even though it’s right next to the mall, I think that having a Border’s bookseller close by keeps the crowds evened out between the two stores. Great café here, lots of chairs around the store to relax and be comfortable in… it has a more ‘library-​ish’ feel to it than the other stores, I’d say. Also, of the three B&N stores on the North Shore (Peabody, Saugus, Burlington), this one is the only one that has accessible power plugs in the café for my computer (even though B&N WiFi access is a little pricey!), which is very useful.
