Lovely bookstore with very efficient and helpful staff. They were available for any questions and so incredibly nice. With all the ebooks it was so nice to walk around and smell that awesome book smell. Layout made it easy to find what youre looking for. I couldve spent an afternoon there.

Not many bookstores besides local Librarys in the area This bookstore is apart of Fairfield University and its local and a great place to visit for a variety of books. Although the store space is limited, what they offer is a great experience, helpful staff and if your looking for something, they have it or will get it promptly.

Very nice staff and a tidy place. Not quite as big as the campus store but definitely closer to me. They have all the things you can think of, from actual books to a coffee shop and Fairfield U merch!

A spacious two story bookstore with a Starbucks inside. A great place to spend kill some time and look for new books to read while walking around downtown Fairfield.A note to avid readers: the bookstore appears to carry mostly newer books.

I have to say I always drove by, and never stopped in. I attended lecture there last night and was impressed. They have a Starbucks inside and plenty of books to look over. Quiet atmosphere and great employees.

A nice little book shop. The folks at the Starbucks were also kind and helpful. It’s a perfect place to browse as you wait for your table to be ready at one of the restaurants on the street.

Good food. Long wait. Reservation time came and went. Good service though once we were seated. A price fix menu if you are into that. Cheaper prices probably cause for larger crowd.

A good, wide selection to chose from. Its a regular book store like Barnes and Noble now and has a good coffee shop as well which is quiet and relaxed. Also Fairfield U paraphernalia.

Knowledgeable staff, many of whom stayed when Borders closed. If they dont have what you need, theyll order it. Lovely cafe and sometimes live music. Also, author signings.

Usually an excellent store though you may have to wait a few days for a book that is not currently on the popular list! Recommended

Review №21

Typical academia, mostly lib titles on the tables up front, despite a large collection of recently published conservative-leaning titles available. I guess fair and balanced presentation of ideas is not the goal.

Cute bookstore with a smaller selection. The atmosphere makes it a great place to grab a coffee and read.

Review №29

They ordered the wrong book and insisted there was not a 3rd edition...they ordered the 2nd edition. A few hours later, I received a phone call saying that they found it on Amazon...which I had initially recommended but the employee insisted he had searched it several times.He finally found the book online and ordered for me. If I can find a book with a title and author, shouldnt an employee at book shop be able to do the same?

This is a wonderful book store in the heart of Fairfield Center. It is owned and operated by Fairfield University so you will also find some Fairfield University branded merchandise here. There is a Starbucks inside and free Wi-Fi. There is a table upstairs which is a great place to meet a group of people.

The woman who works in the children’s section upstairs is rude and not friendly to the children. Constantly giving mean looks as the kids are sitting at the little table reading books. Should not be working in the children’s section.

I go to this store that works in the place that once was Borders, in Fairfield, Ct. In addition to being very well stocked with all kinds of merchandise besides books (clothes, electronics, cosmetics, religious items) has Starbuck and that makes it very busy. Its nice to see the students at Fairfield University talking, laughing and doing their jobs there. the staff is friendly and collaborative. It is the meeting place of my family, from there we move to the surroundings to have lunch or shopping and then we return to enjoy a coffee.
