Best Book Franchise Ever

by sladewilson2002 at Citysearch

Forget Borders and the rest, B&N beats them all hands down. Complete with a Starbucks and every conceievable book you would ever want (if they don't have it, they'll order it), it's right there. Their selections are impeccable. The staff is usually very willing to help. All in all, they have what you need and want concerning books.

  • Pros: Selection, staff, service, ambience

Some Stores are More Equal

by jessicabranch_citysearch at Citysearch

OK, it's just one of the B&N empire's outposts, now almost as ubiquitous as Duane Reades, but it's one of the better ones. First, the location, convenient to many subway lines, makes this store's excellent reading series even more accessible. Then, unlike the Astor Place locale, this one's got some room to sprawl so the claustrophobic aspect of so many Manhattan stores, particularly those with so much to sell, suffer from. Stock's respectable and service is usually decent. All in all, quite a good effort for a store that's not the flagship.
