This is a great B and N. Finally a Historical Fiction c section! Only seen that once before at Bruised Apple in Peekskill. Very well stocked and well organized store.

The store is nicely laid out and the employees are extremely friendly! Also the Starbucks cafe is great and the drinks/food - always delicious. This B&N is my husband and my go-to place!

First off, nice vinyl selection! Buy they really need to replenish the anime section. FYE no longer exists in Newburgh, so we only have B&N. That section was kind of disappointing and nothing was on sale. Overall the store was neat and clean, but the cashier didnt take the alarm off my item, making me ring while trying to leave. I only had 3 items, so I dont know why she forgot to do that.

One of the few brick and mortar bookstores left, and its nice to see so many bound books in one place in the 21st century. Roomy, clean, and tastefully decorated. It would be nice if the shelving signs were a little bigger so you dont have to wander everywhere to find what youre looking for, but you can always order in-store pickup if you dont have 20 minutes to browse past books that you have no interest in.

The atmosphere was very laid back & relaxing. The interior is modern & spacious. The organization of the book shelves flow so you dont have to break your neck trying to find a topic. The staff are pleasant,helpful,& respectful. I didnt go to the coffee shop located in the back of the store but overall this was a pleasant experience. Highly recommended if you want to get out of the house instead of using Amazon.

Great selection on the classics if you’re a collector! I would’ve liked to see a classic Frankenstein in store, but there were other options, like ordering it online. The store, even when at its busiest is spacious, and has plenty of people to help with whatever you’re looking for. There is something for everyone in here if you’re ever looking for a gift for yourself or others. I definitely recommend!

Clean and organized with plenty of options. Cage was pretty relaxing. Was a little bummed that they didnt have any transcribing pens.

Its Barnes & Noble. If you are a book person, this needs no description, lol. This particular location is a bit smaller than other locations Ive been to. However, courteous & helpful staff. Should have the more popular releases available, but they will search & order what you are looking for if not in stock. Store was clean and orderly. Wish the magazine section was kept up more. I know this type of media is fading, but people still do buy magazines. They have magazines on the racks that are months old and current issues seem to take forever to be stocked. Otherwise, not a bad store.

Great experience. Bought online for same day pickup. Pickup was barely 3 minutes start to finish. Customer service was super nice no matter which location I visit. Took some time to browse for old titles I wanted as well. I was also assisted by Rachel who was super polite, helpful, and smart. She did the legwork and successfully found several of the books I wanted . I highly recommend a visit here if in the neighborhood!

Review №16

I want to applaud the Newburgh Barnes & Noble for its diverse, well-stocked horror and YA sections, featuring award-winning and ambitious titles by local (Hudson Valley-based) authors alongside the buzzworthy books and titans of the genre. The store is clean and spacious as ever with polite staff. My own preference is to support indie booksellers, but B&Ns like the one in Newburgh make me very glad the company is still in business. May it always remain so!

Barnes & Noble, in general, is an awesome experience. However, I personally do not care for some, in particular, mall-based locations. Newburgh is a stand-alone, single-level entity, which is bright, clean, and attractively layed out This is our second favorite B&N location (Paramus, NJ being #1).They do not have a used book section, but thats not a negative, because we can go to the Paramus, NJ location for that. Newburgh does have a good assortment of discounted books and games, and it seems we always purchase something from those. They also have a good selection of audio (including vinyl!) and video items.Newburgh does have a Starbucks concession with the usual, including tasty desserts. B&N Members get a 10% discount.RECOMMENDED 😎

I love B&N, been coming here since I was a kid.The manager there today was really rude for some reasonMy sister and I put away $100 worth of books we were gonna buy.Weve never had a problem there before. We have literally been here hundreds of times before and have spent thousands of dollars through the years.Oh well.

Visited today Tuesday April 20 at about 5:50 pm. Ordered 2 coffees. The person was very rude. Never said thank you or anything. She asked fir my BN phone number for rewards and when I started to give it she snapped I’m not on that screen yet! I say sorry and she says both. Gives us our coffee and no thank you. Nothing. Very rude.

Will always come here for books! Im a member of BOTM, but nothing compares to getting into a store and spending hours with the shelves choosing the perfect book! My most recent visit I left with 6 new additions and they even had signed copies 😊 If I had more time, I would totally sit down and enjoy a quick read and bite to eat at their cute little cafe! Cozy and quiet space.

Review №33

The last time I came in, I had asked about a book on alchemy. Not only did the girl behind the counter not know how to spell alchemy, but when the book turned out to simply not be what I was looking for and I left, she and her coworker stared daggers at me as I left and it made me feel extremely uncomfortable and unwelcome. Every other experience Ive had in the store was great, the other cashiers and workers have always had great customer service, just not this instance.

Great place, large, clean, nice cafe, good employees. Seating areas are okay. Good selection and stock is accurate when checking online before visiting. Additional note: the membership is worth it for the 10% off all purchases, and free coupons for the cafe (if you buy books or other items frequently like physical music, or fan merchandise)

Love coming here to see what cool, new merch they have. The store is always clean, well organized. Employees are helpful and friendly. The Starbucks has a really nice seating area where I go to get a coffee, lunch, and/or study. The food is good, a little pricey, but its Starbucks. They used to have some nice comfy chairs against the walls of the seating area, which I miss, but there is plenty of seating. Prices are a little high throughout the store but theres usually a nice selection of deeply discounted sale items to look through. Ive found a few great items over the years. Overall, great atmosphere and love that I can grab a drink and a book to enjoy.

It was clean and easy to find most of what i wanted. I liked that they had a large assortment of not only books, but graphic novels, manga, and toys/ collectables. Its a bit expensive though.

Review №51

This is a wonderful bookstore. The help desk is wonderful. They help to locate your book quickly, if not available, they order it immediately. They also suggest other reading material by the author and the subject. They are interested in your opinions on books. They have wonderful book clubs. They have comfortable chairs for you to read and check out if you like the book. There is a Starbucks offer good brunch. They make their own cookies there. You get a deal if you purchase from the store. Its great to go there, especially when the library has limited resources.People are in there to learn from many sources, meet others to discuss and learn from them. It is an exciting intellectual experience. Take your time and enjoy.

Came here 2 days before christmas and was completely shocked and excited to be able to do a one stop shop for my remaining gifts. Ive never realized how much stuff they have that isnt books.

If you like books bookstore, do get the $25 membership - it has paid for itself and more for the last 3 years for me, and I use it when my friends but stuff there so they are happy too. I used to like Barnes and Noble as my book spot - now I love it as over time it has improved in ways I couldnt imagine.They have great current books, and what they dont have they can order for you to either be shipped to your doorstep or picked up at the store. They have lots more seating than they used to - including next to outlets where you can recharge your devices. One time I had no place to take my online class, and I went there and no one bothered me. I always but a little book if I do that but its just great to know there is a haven for book lovers right in Newburgh.

Review №65

A real pleasure to find a book store still open. There is so much pleasure in holding a real book, turning the pages, feeling the paper pages, the whole tactile experience. The staff was delightful and very helpful. A bit disappointed there were so few quilting books but did find an excellent selection of quilting magazines. Something for everyone of every age. A great place to stretch the mind and keep it young.

I was looking for a particular gift item that I had seen on the website and I was hoping to buy it in the store since it was on my way home and I wouldnt have to wait for it. I couldnt find it, couldnt remember exactly what the name was, and a young employee named Hailey (at the Newburgh, NY site) stuck with me, found the name of the item from my description and THEN found it for me in the store! Great customer service and nice to know the item was in stock and I could go home with it the same day. I love going to this store! Nothing like reading a good book in the cafe with a coffee and a pastry.

So I went to this Barnes & Noble on 10/21/20 around 12:30pm to see what new Pokémon cards were restocked as I’ve been checking weekly for the new set to come in. I noticed they had Elite trainer boxes priced for $19.99 so I attempted to buy them .i went to checkout and was denied the sale by the manger on duty ??!! He told me they were Mispriced and I wasn’t able to buy them at that price ! I asked why and he couldn’t give me a straight forward answer and couldn’t even sell them to me at a discounted price he refused to sell me any . I calmly walked out and attempted to call corporate left multiple messages and was told I would receive a call back .. it’s been a month and still nothing I’ve written numerous emails and still gotten nothing ! I just want a explanation on why I wasn’t able to prices the products at that price as it clearing said $19.99 !

Depending on what you intend to buy, Barnes and Noble can be a good place to buy your books. If you have a membership and you buy best sellers or head over to the bargain sections, youre likely to get a deal that rivals Amazon. If, however, you find yourself consistently looking for books that are not on sale, the membership might not be worth it. I happen to have a fairly eclectic taste, so Barnes and Noble is rarely a good deal for me. I rate it highly because it seems like itd be great for the majority of readers.

I always love Barnes and nobles. This is a relocation that you possibly can find a comfortable seat, drink coffee, and eat their delicious cookies. Unlike most of the Barnes and nobles on the West Coast, they chocolate chip cookies and their Reeses cookies have more chips. I have bought some toys on clearance for my nieces for only 2 bucks each. What a bargain! I purchase a $2 book that had a great chapter that I plan to use to guide my community service.

Just like any other BN. Friendly assistance with look for specific titles and/or editions. Clean and bright and well maintained. Would like to see signage directing us where to find more books similar to those on display at front door; like find more books like this in our ______ section. I think that would really increase foot traffic in areas you wouldnt normally get.
