Barnes & Noble Booksellers

One of our favorite locations! The place is clean and we can spend hours here! Traffic can be crazy getting in but the area is nice! We enjoy that the staff is friendly and always willing to help! I wish they had a young adult section but that’s just being picky! We highly suggest this location…

Definitely one of the smallest B&N’s I’ve been to. That being said, they still did have a decent selection of books, your typical clearance section and magazines. It’s in a nice location as well. It was the first B&N I’ve been to where nobody really asked if you needed help. Seemed to be a lot of employees stocking books but not really an emphasis on customer service. Maybe we were just there on a weird day who knows.

There’s nothing to complain about with this Barnes and Noble to me. I’ve had excellent customer service and they helped me renew my Educator Card when they told me it was about to expire. Compared to other Barnes & Nobles, this store is smaller and it doesn’t have a café (there’s a Starbucks next door). Since this place is located in the Hazard Center, parking is smaller directly outside the store, so you might have to go to the attached parking garage and walk. This can get complicated on busier days when somebody’s trying to get out of the spot near the store and traffic getting into the parking lot gets backed up.

Solid three stars for this location.
This spot is extremely tiny, but that’s even more emphasized by large tables in the aisles making it almost impossible to walk through the store if someone is looking at any item on the tables. By the front entrance there’s not only large tables but large spinning stands filled with knick-​knacks. All in all, too much merchandise for such a small location.
They sell mostly everything any other Barnes and noble sells, books, journals, coloring books, calendars, stuffed animals, Funko Pop dolls and magazines. There is no Starbucks in this Barnes and noble but there is one close by in the shopping plaza.
I had a few questions and if the store had some times I was looking for, and the staff was extremely helpful and nice. The lovely lady who helped me didn’t just point to where the items were she walked me all the way to the other side of the store to show me exactly where everything was! The cashier I had was beyond friend also.
So in short, try this location on a weekday. It will probably be less crowded and more enjoyable.

I always love going into book stores and Barnes and Noble is no exception.
This location is a bit small for a Barnes and Noble but still has a lot of books.
Honestly though, I mainly just window shop here. Books here can be considerably more expensive here than say Amazon. Although sometimes if it’s hard to find, try call this place. Sometimes they have to hard to find stuff.
Also the location of this one is the Hazard Center. It’s notorious have having the most ridiculous parking lot.
From the small spaces to the traffic, it can be a headache.

Came by here to pick up a magazine that I wanted. The place has easy access off freeway. The location is very clean and organized. The prices are reasonable and the selection is excellent!

Fairly typical of its kind littered with banal generalities. Good for getting your feet wet, but you’re not gonna find anything of a more subtantial means. Nice clean place, and a healthy crowd of book lovers as always. :)

This place has a great kids section. And thank the lord for that. My little one loves her books and doesn’t know what to do when she comes here. OVER LOAD.
The staff is really nice and helpful and everything is kept up really well.
This will be my Book Store for sure.

I love books. I literally have tons of books in my house. There are times when there are too many, though…
So old books routinely get donated.
I could literally spend hours in this Barnes & Noble! I can find a cozy, quiet spot and chill with some books. Sweet!
There is a lot to this store, and it’s set-​up is nice. Check out all the new releases and best sellers displayed as you walk in. The magazine section is insane! If there is a magazine you want that you can’t find anywhere else, you’ll find it here. There is even a section where you can find books signed by the author. Just ask if you can’t find what you’re looking for. Everyone working here is knowledgeable and helpful.
Pick up a gift, or something cute to go along with your gift, like a bookmark. Large selection of bookmarks, writing papers, and other cute things here. They even have Godiva chocolates! Heeee!
Right now there’s a sale going on with the large Godiva chocolate bars-​buy 2, get 1 free. There is also a Starbucks just adjacent to this B&N, so you can pick up some caffeine first, to completely relax. Ahhh…
If you buy a membership (nominal), one of the perks is 20% off your books, plus… if you order online, you get free shipping, and shipping is quick. Their membership is a good deal if you like to buy a lot of books.
Being old school, I’m happy to see there are still some book stores around, and in my opinion, this Barnes & Noble is the best one around for new books.

I love that there is still a place where you can go to buy books! Stopped in today to grab some good reads for the plane. Everyone was very friendly and happy!

I enjoy coming to Barnes and Nobles to read and learn more about things that interest me (photography, travel, cooking are some things for example).
I came here after breakfast yesterday to do some reading before heading out to appointments and t take care of errands.
This location is smaller than the Grossmont Center store, but it still has a nice selection of books. They also have a Starbucks across the way and a bunch of restaurants in Hazard Center such as: Smash Burger, BJ’s, Applebee ‘s, and several others.
This Barnes and Nobles is closer to home for me, so it is much more convenient. There are plenty of chairs throughout the store and it’s pretty quiet inside. With it being a little overcast this morning I didn’t mind hanging out to do a little reading.
The store is clean and staff friendly.

This Barnes and Noble has a good selection of books, I do wish it had comfortable seats and a coffee shop or something, that way after buying a book you can acompany it with some coffee! But well Staff is kind, attentive, and knows where their books are.

I just picked up Trisha Yearwood’s 3^rd cookbook.
My favorites have been put into here.
Just beautiful photography…
and time that has been spent inside and out.
I will be taking my time this weekend to read this.
I just flipped through it but I know I will love it because it’s set up just like her second one…
and it’s a hard cover.
I can’t wait to start making things from this. It’s so much easier taking a cookbook and propping it up against something and reading it to make sure you have all the ingredients and instructions so it all comes together easily.
I know…
I will love this just as much as you will!
Way to go, Trisha!
Update:
Well I did say I was gonna start reading Trisha’s new cookbook this weekend
and… I have.
It’s an excellent book.
I am loving every minute of it.
If you watch her Food Network show enough you can actually hear the way she talks on her FN show as she does in the book.
I’m already onto the 3^rd section.
Our most favorite dish we have cooked of Trisha’s is the Chicken Saltimbocca!
There were so many rolls of our eyes into the back of our heads.
And then first…
A moment of silence…
Next;
Enjoying every bite with food orgasms.
LOL!
Update:
I am almost done with the cookbook.
I’m on the last chapter and what I have learned is amazing.
I’ve learned why canning is used which Trisha explains in one of her recipes which I think is pretty cool.
Her recipes are incredibly simple and sound so good.
Everything is homemade.
She’s added some different twists on her food that I think is so unique.
MMMM!
UPDATE:
Just finished reading Trisha’s 3^rd whole cookbook
and…
It was an excellent read.
I can see myself making more
and…
more of these recipes at home.
Another recipe that we tried is called:
Texas Sheet Cake
with Chocolate Ganache
and…
It was so good!
YUM!
Congratulations on your cookbook
Trisha!
Awesome job!
UPDATE:
I uploaded:
The Texas Sheet Cake
With Chocolate Ganache
to my timeline…
and…
It’s in the clear baking dish.

I became a big fan of Barnes & Noble when my father in law bought all my kids nooks! Now Barnes & Noble is my go to bookstore. Their prices are not the lowest, but they have managed to out live many of the other big chain stores.
My kids really like visiting the store and think its fun! The kids section is located in the rear of the store and is very kid friendly! On many of our visits we have browsed the educational/​workbook section for grade school aged kids. They have a good selection of workbooks and tools to help improve our children’s skills.
They also have some toys. I can always find a friendly and helpful staff member when I need help, too. The store has a great selection of adult books as well. I am a sucker for cook books and magazines. And they have a great selection of those. They also have a discounted section of books too.
The store is very well kept, clean, and neat. Parking has never been a problem for me, when we visit. Also, there are plenty of places to eat and get coffee in the mall.

I like hanging out here to look at magazines but they don’t have a coffee shop inside like they do in Eastlake. But this one is closer to me. They don’t really have any lounge spots except for some hard wooden benches that are cramped in between the bookshelves. They have a large selection of books and magazines which is where I get my copies of European car magazines.

Was walking around and wonder what’s new so I went to the healthy life section and I found this book for my wife that I know she will love it, the store have a large selection of books from all the types so for sure you can find something you like in that store.

San Diego doesn’t have enough bookstores. I’m grateful for this chain that still exists. B&N understood this. How clever they partnered up w/​some entity to encourage people to come back into bookstores by having a special Signed Copy section by the authors? Brilliant! I heart bookworms! I missed the boat on a very limited supply of signed books by author «Hillary Clinton.» There was one last copy of Drew Barrymore’s book that was cool to see. I like this location because it’s smaller and more cozy. I tend to find unique books on the shelves at this location and a lot more bulk of whatever is trending at other B&N’s. These guys have a little extra something to offer. They will gift wrap your purchase for you. Today there was a special table that was set up for it. Awesome perk! They offer story time for kids and good deals like today was Purchase’s over x amount will give you $ 10 gift card. They’re patient with customers and I always have great intellectual conversations with them. Customer service is always awesome. Friendly staff that smiles and goes out of their way to assist on locating titles in store or in their system. Store is always organized and there is always a chair or bench available. Good place to pick up a gift for someone or yourself.

Besides the minimal chairs my only pet peeve with this location is the –staff-​passive aggressiveness between their condescending «Can I help you find something?»… I’ve experienced better atmospheres at smaller book stores in the desert.
I advise management to incorporate more chairs & refresh staff on a crash course of ‘customer service’. ***Unless your satisfied having delivering a mediocre experience, thus having a less than satisfactory rating on Unilocal

— Fairly small B&N with minimal seating, but there is a Starbucks (and another coffee shop) right near it, if you’re looking for a place to read what you just purchased.
— Employees don’t actively offer help, but when you ask them for assistance they are usually happy to help you.
— Cashiers are usually very friendly and seem happy!
— I often find a book I want on their website and pick it up at the store. They are quick to let you know that your book is ready for pick up.
— Parking can be a huge pain depending on when you go.
— Reliably open till 9pm.

In a digital world it is still awesome to feel a book in mt hand and turning the pages as the story unfolds in front of your eyes and imagimation.
I love bookstores and Barnes & Noble. This one offers much the same as the other Barnes & Nobles. I really like that this store seems to have plenty of spots inside the store to sit down. And a selection of benches in front of the store. As well as some café style seating.
Nearby are several coffee spots to grab some java. Or. ice cream.
This place is a treasure!
