Barnes and Nobles remains the best big retail bookstore ever. Truthfully a bit pricey but it is what it is and it’s worth it. Nice selection of books, manga and music. The music section, my favorite, has an expansive selection of K-Pop. They have a healthy offering of vinyl records, CDs and DVDs. They also have collectibles (think FunkoPops and other figurines/toys and board games). Great place.
Kudos to whomever has trained their staff. Two ladies helped me(one named J*c**e). The cashier was super upbeat and friendly and walked me over to customer service so that J*c**e could assist me. She too was super friendly and upbeat and she showed her colleague,who was eager to be taught, how to fix a technical issue. Love, love, love this store and its vast array of books and comforting atmosphere.
So grateful to have a book store. It it large, with a great selection of books, dvds and music. There is a Starbucks cafe inside. Several organized by subject magazine racks - great selection! There is a restroom here. Lots of discounted book racks as well. Toys, games, gifts, and greeting cards. An all around great bookstore.
Opened 10 am to 9 pm Monday to Saturday Sunday 10 am to 8 pm Very nice book store located at the parking level in ala Moana shopping center. Large selection very nice helpful staff.
Our favorite bookstore—and the only one of its kind on the island! The staff is fantastic: friendly, helpful, and always willing to go the extra mile. We’re members, so we enjoy our discounts and treats, and we love spending time here with a coffee while doing a quick read. The Starbucks team inside is also super friendly. Only good things to say about this place—thank you, everyone, for making it such a welcoming spot!
