Barnes & Noble

My boyfriend and I came here on Friday evening for a date to check out some books, enjoy a drink and hang out with our fur babies in one convenient place. As we entered inside, we were able to look for some books to purchase with our fur babies with no problem. The staff here were very accommodating and checked in on us to see if they could provide any help. Once we got some books, we walked over to the cafe and got a cold brew and passion tango iced tea lemonade which was made to perfection in a quick manner by the friendly barista. The prices for the drinks were same as getting them at another Starbucks. They also offer deals with a BOGO 50% cookies or if you buy a drink after buying a book that they are selling at the ordering counter then you would get a discount which I thought was neat. We sat down and read for a little bit and after about an hour so we were pleased with our selection and decided to head to check out. We found out they were running a sale for paperback books which was awesome as we had almost the right amount but they had books at the counter to select from that are top picks from Barnes and Noble. The prices for the books dropped and made the purchase even more cheaper than we had intended which was a nice surprise. Additionally, on your receipt they have a $1 off grande or larger size drinks for your next cafe visit! We look forward to coming back for our future book purchases and dates with our dogs!

Barnes & Noble is truly a book lover's paradise! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a cozy atmosphere and a vast selection of books across all genres. The staff is always friendly and eager to help you find exactly what you’re looking for. I appreciate their recommendations and the genuine passion they have for books. The café inside is a perfect spot to relax with a good read, and they offer a great selection of coffee and snacks. Whether you’re looking for the latest bestsellers, a classic novel, or a thoughtful gift, Barnes & Noble never disappoints. Highly recommend for anyone who loves to get lost in a bookstore!

Most B&N stores in Seattle area closedbtheir doors and the one in Federal Way is still open. I used to come here a lot and felt like home due to its friendly staff and great atmosphere. How much do we appreciate a physical book store where you can enjoy looking at various selection of 📚 books. It has been over 2 years since my last trip here from Seattle. How much do we miss coming here ! I do hope the store keeps its door open so people have a warm place to explore knowledge. The online sales on Amazon has destroyed business of many lovely bookstores, unfortunately.

I’ve never been to any book store since I’m not big fun of reading but my boys does. First time going in and I could say that I was impressed. Very nice, huge, clean and organized. Service was ok. So much books to choose from! I didn’t expect to see toys but they’re really expensive though. It’s cool that there’s Starbucks inside the store. Would definitely go back to buy more books. My boys enjoyed their time there.

Prices were good plus markdowns and other sales. The children's section was awesome. I love to read and did spend over an hour going through the isles here. Besides books they are selling games, stationary and assorted other merchandise. The Cafe was busy; hardly an empty table. And I like that there are chairs situated here and there - to sit and gaze through a book, maybe two.

Yesterday the girlfriend and I decided to have a date afternoon here at Barnes & Noble. Truth be told, I rarely can sit still long enough to be able to get my money's worth on a book because of this hyperactivity issue of mine, but for some reason coming in here I can stay focused and actually read a book. The girlfriend and I found several books we were interested in and thumbed through them while sipping on our coffee from their instore Starbucks. We spent about 2 hours here and it was lovely. If you become a member things are a little cheaper so perhaps I should break down and just join since we've came here twice a week for the last three weeks. 🙂

I was looking for a particular book that my daughter has been wanting for a while. It was sold out everywhere, not available from any online retailer to be delivered until February of 2026. I wanted this book for a Christmas gift. I searched the Barnes & Noble website and while they had it listed none of the stores within 100 miles of the Portland Metro area had it available for in-store pickup. So I tried a Seattle zip code. Sure enough, the Barnes & Noble in Federal way showed an in-stock copy. So I called the store and talked to Brendon, gave him the ISBN number and he went and verified the book was in the store. He held the copy for me and I made the 2.5 hour drive up to Federal Way to purchase the book that evening after work. Thank you, Brendon!
