University Bookstore

Great for gear and odds and ends but for more colorful UB hoodies, hit up one of the other shops on campus.

I always come here to ship my packages, and it’s never a hassle.

Great bookstore, but don't stay longer than an hour, the parking police are very quick to ticket you there

The restaurant was kept clean. The order was made correctly. Food was fresh and prepared well.

The UB Bookstore offers a convenient and comprehensive shopping experience for students, faculty, and visitors. Located on campus, it provides everything from textbooks and school supplies to UB-branded apparel, gifts, and tech accessories. The staff are generally helpful and knowledgeable, especially during the hectic start of the semester. The store is well-organized, and the textbook rental/purchase process is streamlined. They also offer an online ordering system, which is especially useful for students who prefer delivery or in-store pickup. However, like many campus bookstores, prices can be on the higher side, particularly for textbooks and branded merchandise. It’s worth comparing prices with online retailers. Still, the convenience and school spirit of shopping at the UB Bookstore often make it the go-to choice for many students. Overall, it’s a well-stocked, reliable resource for the UB community.

Expensive University merchandise. Standard choices: jersey, t-shirts, mugs. Closed at 4 pm while many shoppers, mostly parents at orientation, still around. Foregone sales opportunities.

As an alum, it's heartwarming to return to campus and have a place to shop, share time with family, and reflect on college experiences.
