They have a great book selection and very friendly, helpful staff. If they don't have what you want they'll usually be able to have it for you within a few days. Also a nice selection of gift items and children's area, book clubs and events. Highly recommended!

They sell books by neo Nazis and fascists. I'll take my business elsewhere.

I love book stores. This one is in a really good location. They have lots of new books, but there are two main issues here. There are none, or just a few, seats available for people to seat and read the books. Moreover, not only the used book section is only one shelf and one cart, but also the prices are high. I have to mention that the sellers are so nice and helpful, and I respect anyone who still has a bookstore and tries to inform people. Thanks.
