This Barnes & Noble is two stories tall it does have an elevator for handicapped people had a good time shopping and my daughter had a free cupcake because shes part of the kids club but when I went to go check out after buying a book a toy and a train set thing the cashier asked if I was part of the rewards program and I entered in my email address and he said oh youre only part of the kids program and Im like yeah do I get anything for that and he was like no but we have this other program but didnt explain the program to me and was really kind of rude and I would have signed up for your program definitely if I get discounts and points or percentages off but I guess he didnt care for to sign me up for this card or even tell me how to sign up for the extra points card other than that I had a lovely experience in the store is huge.

This is two floors of book bliss! Friendly staff, great selection, very clean and organized, even hand written cards promoting some of the books on the shelf. My dad and I loved it and will be back!

Selena and Jack will take care of your day beautiful people

I thought this place would sell barns but I was pleasantly surprised by their selection of books. I really need to find a place that sells barns though, it’s because I met this girl on match.com and I pretended I was Amish because I thought she’d like me more. Now we’ve really hit it off and she’s coming from the Virgin Islands to see me in a few weeks. I really love her so I don’t want to her to find out I’m really just a non-Amish guy. Great bookstore!

Excellent book & magazine outlet with Starbucks coffee to boot. Nice place for a quiet read and lunch. Not ever busy here and lots of great chairs to lounge.. #freewifi

Broad selection of topics. Helpful staff, inviting decor and spacious layout.

If one has to buy a book this is a great place to start. Staff was helpful choices oplenty. Personally I prefer a used book 💁.

Barnes & Noble has by far the best customer service. Their associates do not even hang up the phone when you call to ask if they have a product unlike Walmart or Target you call them to ask if they have a box of sports cards not only do you get an attitude but most of the time you get hung up on Barnes & Noble is a phenomenal business keep up the good work

Its a good place to read and decompress.

Clean and organized. Very knowledgeable staff. Nice visit!

Best place to enjoy coffee and books. Helpful staff and clean and well lit. Vegan coconut stack is awesome.

This place is nice big with 2 floors and let you have some space to read and get some rest while reading. New gift , tech , and romantic stuff you can find too. Barnes and Noble staff here are very friendly and nice behaved. Hope you can find here what you’re looking for.

Never a bad experience here. Excellent staff and merchandise.

I got my favorite manga and in hard cover for less them what I expected very easy to find book of different genres

Really good. Had at least five books

Stopped in for the cafe. Good visit

Incredible experience with the staff and customers and their acceptance of my bringing in my macaw. Everyone loved him, took pictures and couldnt believe he wouldnt fly off.

If you like to read a great place to go

There is nothing better then enjoying your lunch hour finding a good book and then ordering a Starbucks coffee and caprese sandwich. Yes Covid takes away the ability to enjoy all that right there but soon enough the experience will be compete.

Always clean, no complaints. Bathroom available as well as hand sanitizer. Plentiful amount of reading material can be found on two floors in this store as well as toys, journals, art and activity sets, etc. Membership savings make it easy for birthday or holiday shopping.

The place is great except for the café. The staff of the café are incompetent and are not efficient. They need to be trained. They are very slow.

Great place to spend an afternoon looking for good books, magazines, and even toys. Starbucks inside has nice treats. Staff is very friendly.

Until COVID-19, a wonderful place to relax and recharge your mind.

Theyre array is to obvious theyre on fire with titles coming straightforward at you as if diviniated by god. There is help for all the needs in the Universe

Love to read mysterious. So much to choose from. Very nice store. Clean and pleasant. When you come down the escalator, you see the whole bottom store, real cool.

Found Harry Potters group series...lease price around...for my niece in-law! She LOVED it!

Book store its self was great. Lots to chose from. The cafe on the other hand not so great. I stood there waiting to order and got completely ignored. Its not like she didnt see me because she walked right near where i was and continued to do whatever she was doing. There was no one else in line or even waiting on an order. After 5 mins of being ignored i left.

Love thia place is calm and just the right spot to drink a nice coffee

Went there last week to pick up a book I ordered online, and it was my first visit. To be honest, I was disappointed that I had to leave so quickly, because it looked as though it was a wonderful place to spend some time reading. There was this wonderful dark haired woman there, who was more than helpful. I wish I caught her name, just because she was so pleasant, and all. Great store, w a vast variety of reading materials, and sections to choose from! I cant wait til my next visit, and I will definitely be spending more time browsing the collections there.

Very spacious really nice customer service when above and beyond to help us out to her best ability

Love this place. Any kind of 📚

I was able find the magazine that I was looking for.They sold out in the Holyoke, mass

Went in to find books on diabetes for food list and understanding of the disease First time in the store Didnt find the books I wanted but have one to understand a little more about diabetes

OMG a book store!! Big location easy parking and its 2 levels with handicap access via elevator.

Great bookstore lots of selections for books. Prices are high. Small cafe inside was adequate. Was clean and managed for covid. Staff was helpful.

Great place for a coffee and to chill

Very inviting. Wonderful staff. Have a cup of Joe and chill.

My daughter loves this place!!

Impressive book collections.

Great childrens books department 😊

I love the atmosphere

Nice place to shop for books. Very great customer service.

Very good books

Customer service was very nice four stars (kinda over-priced)

A wide array of books and magazines are available at Barns & Noble.

Great place for books and coffee

Two levels and super clean and friendly staff

Can never go wrong with this place. I love going there. They are cleaning it constantly.

One of my favorite places. Staff is friendly and informative. Never have a problem finding what I am looking for; if they do not have something then they can order it for you. Starbucks cafe.

One of the friendliest place on Earth

Definitely an amazing place to be, however some things are wildly overpriced compared to Amazon. Still somewhere I love visiting and getting books from.

What I liked is, they finally got rid of oldoutdated magazines (newstand). Issuesdated back as March, April. The isles onthe first floor has moved around.Computer/photography books is nowon the second floor. The calendars for2021 is out for sale. This is the Barnes& Noble in Holyoke, MA.

I love this place for its size and variety. Be prepared to spend some coin.

I love this store! Clean, happy employees, great snacks.

Great place if you love books

The cashier was wonderful and awesome

Always a great place with a great variety of books and genres. Very helpful staff.

Really good books, and the food is pretty good!

Fun place to poke around in, great selection of books!

Such an amazing selection with really great service!

One of the best place to study.

Plenty noble not so much barn

Always love going into B&N, they are knowledgeable about their books & very friendly, helpful!!

Love this store one of the best B&N and is there a bad one? Huge, helpful staff, and plenty of parking

Nice, clean, everyone wore a mask. Excellent selection of books and magazines.

I come here all the time, particularly for Pusheen 😄

Hooray we can go shopping for books again..... Which is nice.... B&m is so much better than amazoning it

Its good that they have moved more into selling games and kids stuff. A good diversified selection beyond just books.

Massive selection of many genres.

Good bookstore, I like to browse the racks.

Nice place to go like always. They also take precautions in social distancing.

Nice big place. Staff nice. Would go back if in area.

Love the store. They have a good selection. Only thing is, it can be difficult to find a person to help with questions. Always enough cashiers so the line moves fairly well.

Dougther love it

Great place helpful people very clean

HUGE store! Compared to my local B&N this one is bursting with new products and different things! The associate that helped me and my son was super helpful, and friendly, as was a different associate that cashed us out. I was able to easily locate a book that wasnt available on Amazon, and can read it now! Will go back ASAP!

Service great and questions answered.

Great customer service. Nice store.

Everything is there I love this place

I always enjoy visiting Barnes and Noble.

So much to see and do. The book & magazine selection is outstanding, books can be ordered and shipped. The childrens section is a great place to go with children and grandchildren, huge toy area and a Starbucks.

I didnt get her name, but she showed me that H. P. Lovecraft was in the Sci Fi section. Why was it in the Sci Fi section? It does not belong in the Sci Fi section. If I had her name, I would have said Name, why is H. P. Lovecraft in the Sci Fi section? It does not belong in the Sci Fi section.4 stars because H. P. Lovecraft is in the Sci Fi section. It does not belong in the Sci Fi section.

Nothing to complain about with this place. Starbucks inside. Very spacious, great variety, well organized, and a helpful Staff

Found just what I wanted

A great place to browse, visit and relax. Found the items I came in for. Had a nice visit in the cafe. Staff was very helpful and friendly.

I always enjoy my visit. They made some changes since my last visit and it was not clearly labeled. There was staff to help me find what I was looking for quickly though. Overall I had an enjoyable experience and look forward to another visit.

Great service. Knowledgeable staff. Thanks for the help finding the book I was looking for and recommending another!

Great place to buy books for school

Customer service was awesome! No one followed you around the store while you were shopping! Very peaceful place to just enjoy a visit.

Well I tried to go to Barnes & Noble Holyoke with my kids on June 30, 2020. I was told where to stand by the manager, even though I wasnt doing anything wrong. I was already standing on the designated area for social distancing. The manager with long hair (dont know her name) rudely instructed me where to stand like I was a 4 year old and then had a customer come from behind me and my son causing the customer to (gasp) not social distance. She then took that customer to the counter to show her something. No idea why I would bother coming back to your Stasi style post-world war 2 East Germany store with ridiculous rules none of which I broke. I think I will just buy books way cheaper on Amazon.

I just go for the Starbucks. Use Amazon folks

Maggie met us at the door of Barnes & Noble Holyoke MA on Saturday, April 27. She possesses the best of the best in customer service. Maggie was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Each time we go to the Holyoke store, I will try to find Maggie. Thank you for another experience in excellent customer service.

It is a Barnes and Nobel which yes they are still open. On this visit we did locate the book we were looking for but it was not where it should have been and was on an end cap where staff did not even know it was. The bathroom is also just as difficult to spot and was not clean. Overall its nice to look at items once in a while before buying online but I see why people enjoy the comforts of their home and the internet

Wonderful book/cafe store. Could easily spend hours there just looking around. The only minor problem I had was locating a sales person to help direct me to something I was looking for. More staff on the floor would be beneficial.

Great store for books - if you like that sort of thing. What strikes me as odd though, is having a Starbucks Cafe, and a Starbucks that commands a very significant portion of the store, but the earliest its open is 9am. So basically what I am trying to say, is not a bad spot for your 2nd or 3rd cup of coffee.

Plenty of books to choose from. Prices are better than expected. The place was clean and organized.

Barnes and Noble has always been my go-to destination for last-minute Christmas/birthday/whatever gifts. You can always find a book that covered any interest or niche hobby. Recently, I began to frequent B&N to fuel my toy-collector habits. The amount of toys, figures, puzzles, and other collectibles they stock has increased over the years and B&N has become one of my primary go-to stores when Im looking for Marvel figures, Lego sets, Funko Pop dolls, Harry Potter merchandise, and other collectibles. Need a book? Come here. Need a toy? Come here. Need some coffee? This B&N has a Starbucks in it (most of them do, I believe), so come here for that too. Just come here... youll find something to satisfy your interests, I promise.

I WOULD NEVER PURCHASE ANYTHING EVER FROM YOU GUYS AGAIN AND I WILL MAKE IT SO THAT OTHERS WILL NOT PURCHASE FROM YOU I CANT SPEAK TO SOMEONE THAT UNDERSTANDS AND . I PURCHASED A GIFT CARD 10/16 AND NO BALANCE IS ON IT . YOU PEOPLE ARE THEIVES AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE THEIVES .

Lovely

Love going into a bookstore instead of just purchasing online. I find treasures I would have missed otherwise. Associates are very helpful and knowledgeable.
