The super-sized chain bookstore is the same no matter what city you happen to be in. This location is no exception.
Barnes & Noble excels in the areas of quantity, while making valiant attempts to appeal to local customers by providing displays focusing on local celebrities and interests. The service is adequate, although they could use a few extra employees whose sole purpose is to straighten the shelves.
Seating areas peppered throughout the store provide cushy respites for looking over potential purchases, and an in-house coffee shop offers refreshments.
The entire atmosphere is very formulaic, which apparently works given their popularity.
