  • 5/5 Shahedul I. 2 years ago on Google
    Simply outstanding. This one is probably the biggest B&N around here. The massive collection with great atmosphere makes it a perfect place for bringing our young one's for building the taste of reading. We need more of these everywhere. The second floor has the kids section. Need coffee? There's one coffee shop in the 1st floor, as far as I remember that's a Starbucks. Check out the photos please.

    Cozy, spacious, clean and addictive (they offer Starbucks coffee). Make sure to chekc out the 2nd floor (escalator ride is a must).

    This B&N store is huge! I've never been to one that has 2 levels with escalators. I would have given it 5 stars if it had more seating throughout the store. All I saw was a tiny area near the Starbucks café. I entered through the back near Red Robin. It was great browsing through the DVD, CD, and vinyl collections. I think I spent most of my time in that section. I was curious to see what was on the second floor. They had lots of children's books and the biggest collection of cookbooks that I've seen in one place. They have huge sections of magazines, greeting cards, and gifts as well. I'd go back just for the cookbooks and DVDs. The café had many baked goods that looked wonderful. More than any other Starbucks that I've been to in the past. They had this peanut butter cup cookie that I wanted to purchase, but the line was long and it was time to meet up with my friends for lunch. However, it was great to see a B&N thriving. Sometimes it's just nice to physically thumb through a book before buying it versus online browsing. This bookstore was a cool find. I know it has been a part of the Shops at Wiregrass for a very long time, but it felt newish to me. I guess they are keeping it up very well. They just need to add more seating for those who want to read a few pages before making a purchase.

    This is my favorite B&N location in the Tampa Bay Area! It’s two stories, clean and well organized. The staff are always super friendly and helpful. I enjoy the Cafe which serves many Starbucks drinks. A very relaxing experience. They also sell Godiva Chocolate which makes a nice gift along with a book. There is a small music department that has some really interesting vinyl and a superb children’s section. Highly recommend!

    It was clean. Had a great selection of dnd and other nerd type stuff. Pretty good overall selection of board games too. Would rival some local comic book shops.

    The best place on Earth. I always find every book I need here. I used to buy books on Amazon because the price is cheaper but the books would come in damaged all the time. I don’t mind spending a couple extra dollars to ensure that my book will be in good quality because I pick it up, while having the extra benefit of getting my book the same day.

    They recently added new tables and chairs to the cafe area and now there is a good place to get some work done at Wiregrass while your wife is shopping!!!! It’s also great for books too. So make sure to buy stuff so they don’t go away. Otherwise, I’ll be stuck shopping. And nobody wants that.

    Beautiful store. A lot of parking and easy to get in and out of. The layout is spacious and easy to find what you are looking for. Love they have a HUGE selection of vinyl. (look, some things just sound better that that way) My only complaint is it is hard to find anything because the records are just in boxes up on a table. Really doesn't fit in well in such a well-organized store. I wish they would fix that up. The employees are so helpful and friendly. Sadly, there aren't many chairs around. I am use to going into a bookstore and staying awhile; sitting and going through some books before deciding what to buy. I really don't know why there is plenty of space for some chairs. Regardless, a great place to visit and shop.

    I can't recommend this bookstore enough for its vast collection and family-friendly atmosphere. What made my visit even more special was seeing how my 5-year-old had a great time too, enthusiastically discovering a plethora of interesting books. The store is not just a haven for book lovers of all ages, but also a delightful place for young readers to explore.

    Big store. They sell books for pretty much any genre. I like to go there personally to browse the manga section. Great selection of manga. I just wish that people who go there would be more considerate to others and stop blurting out anime/manga spoilers during casual conversation. Happened a few times when I was sitting there just trying to read. Very frustrating.

    I love this store, and I love visiting it. I love that this book store has 2 stories. This book store basically has books for any age. Almost all of the books that I have bought are from here. The staff are kind and will even give you book recommendations if you ask them. It even has a little food store in there where you can get a drink or a small snack. Definitely recommend going to. The books here are also very entertaining. One of the best Barnes and novels I've been to.

    Introduced my 12-year-old daughter to Barnes & Noble for the first time! This bookstore used to be the place to go and I'm glad I took my daughter there cuz she was dubious but left feeling pretty great about the place. She found the Harry Potter section and it had lots of things that neither of us had ever seen. So to celebrate I bought her a large hard black copy of one of the books. At the cash register they had these unbelievably cool Lego kits included a picture. Glad I brought my daughter there It brought back a lot of memories of all the Barnes & nobles I've spent time in from Seattle to Texas and now in Florida.

    Cannot get enough of this book store. It’s HUGE! I love stopping inside this store. They literally have like every book you can think of. 2 story book store. The inside is well decorated, clean and above and beyond customer service. If you love books, this is the place to be. I always have to stop inside this store even if I’m not buying a book. Really nice spot to hang out.

    Store headed in wrong direction. Hardly any seating throughout the store areas now and loads of books replaced with candles and knick knacks. Membership program has changed also and free yearly bag up to $19.99 isn't your choice (as stated in the small print). Disappointing.

  • 5/5 Amy F. 11 months ago on Google
    Always enjoy this location. They just completed a reorganization of the store. They have an incredible area for the youngsters with lots of books for their age . There is a section close by with educational toys. Lots of Harry Potter things! A good selection of adult games. There is a Starbucks. My only complaint is the bathroom is small for such a big store. They have elevators if needed as well as an escalator.

    I love his voice. It is just full of books me and my family to look at and read. They have a great children section as well as having a great adult reader section. There's a nice coffee shop in there also you to enjoy some coffee and some snacks. It is located in a wonderful area where there are plenty of other things to do and other shopping as well. This is definitely the kind of place that I can go and spend a couple of hours and probably bring home a couple of books.

  • 4/5 Miles L. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this place. Is nice to have a brick and mortar store to physically look at books and magazines. Great place to find a gift or kill time doing something constructive. Magazine section and very large with a lot of selection. Huge book and games section for kids. A lot of speciality books as well. I will definitely return to a Barnes & Noble but probably not this location as the coffee shop is very substandard.

    Very clean and organized the employees are friendly and helpful on top of the fact that they have amazing deals! Obviously for an outer mall it's still a mall.. But this is probably one of the biggest Barnes and nobles I've ever been in in my life 2 floors, Coffee shop, and everything you would want in a bookstore! They have plenty of employees so you never have to worry about not being able to ask where something is..

  • 5/5 Sheeba S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice bookstore. You can read amazing books and order coffee. There is also free wifi. The restrooms are on the 2nd floor in the left hand corner and they are usually well kept as well. There are beautiful journals and planners available as well as a Kate spade section! I love it here! Read and grab a magazine or browse the web on my computer while I get work ✔ done! A win win for me!

    Can always spend a pleasant hour in a bookstore. Went in looking for something and after I gave up, I admitted as much to the cashier, she radioed to another associate and after a few minutes, the book appeared. Good books, better service, very pleasant atmosphere.

    This is the most awesome, two story tall B&N with up and down escalators! I want all the books, and adore the always 💕 fabulous Journal selection! This is the BEST!
