Barnes and Nobles in Milford is a very relaxing place to browse for books on a weekend, weeknight, or even weekday They have a large variety of interesting books and magazines.The store also sells in season and off season items such as candles, soaps, bags, notebooks, journals and an interesting selection of gifts and items to buy.Their small Starbucks seating area just reopened, which is a nice place to relax to have coffee or tea and pastry. The items they sale might include cupcakes, sandwiches, soda, cheesecakes, cookies, ect. I find their service staff to be very professional and pleasant.I have no complaints with Barnes and Nobles in Milford, except that I look forward to them having seating around the store again, but that may not be possible until Covid-19 is under control. Also, when they do return to having seating again, I hope they consider putting seating near the teen and young adult books, so they have a place to sit and relax too.

When you want to quickly find and buy a book, the place doesnt disappoint. Theres a lot of distraction, like games toys magazines etc., a Cafe and a place for your kids to play and learn.

As bookstores go this is a treasury. The shelves are full of a great variety of opportunity to satisfy your reading needs. If you can name your topic of interest then the staff can direct you to the shelve where you can find multiple author’s presentations. When you respond to the staff’s question of ‘what did you last read’ they can send you to shelves of similar genres. If you are just browsing, the time will pass before you realize where it has gone.

I dont go into Barnes & Noble much but I took a friend and he was happy to find some things he wanted and I actually found something that I hadnt anticipated finding DVD of one of my all-time favorite movies Robin Hood with Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland. But I have heard that theyre going out of business I dont know if thats true but if it is its because theyre expensive

Emily is the nicest and helpfull employee ive ever met at a book store but not only did she help me find an obnoxious amount of books but when the book she recommended me wasnt on shelf as im in the check out she runs over and managed to find me the last copy of a different version of the book.

Review №55

I do the electronic book and it does have it pluses, such as a quick search for information. However it is nice to have an actual book in your hands too. And thats where B and N comes in it once to just browse around the books and see what fits for you before you buy. I have bought on line books both actual and virtual and sometime the little info they give you just isnt enough to make an informed decision. That is why a brick and mortar is nice.

Beautiful store. Love the Starbucks! Staff was very helpful and friendly. Great selection, and the Harry Potter books and merchandise were bountiful and fantastic. I loved all the different fun items they had to offer. Plenty of parking, easy to find location. I could always spend hours in a Barnes and Noble... Could spend so much money there. LOVE that book smell!

I love the North Haven location. It is a custom focused environment. The cafe is cozy with great beverages and snacks. The magazines and books are neatly at your disposal. There needs to be more outlets in the cafe location. Only one socket location.

Great, great place. You can sit down and have a cup of delicious coffee, or sit and go over a book youre thinking of buying. You are not rushed. But if you need a book or magazine you cant find, there are helpful folks there to help you.

Friendly and helpful staff, great selection of books, toys, gifts, journals and collectibles. Coffee is tasty. Location is ideal. Always clean. The guy that walks around asking if you need help and giving recommendations is especially awesome. Im here several times a month. Best Barnes and Noble Ive been to in the country, and thats saying something--I even worked for (another) one!

I was shopping for presents for an 11 year old and a toddler. There was a great selection of books for the 11 yr old and knowledgeable staff to help in selecting. Also, a surprisingly large selection of toys, and they had some which were sold out at other online retailers.

Its a typical Barnes and Noble with Starbucks inside. The staff seems very knowledgeable & helpful. The store is always organized and clean. It is stocked well even though they dont carry as many as they did prior to e-books. As all B&Ns if they do not have your book they will order it & have it shipped in few days to store at no extra charge to you.Store is easy to spot from road. It is on the very busy Boston Post Rd but parking lot is always easy to get in and out. Definitely recommend this Barnes and Noble.

I love this Barnes and Noble. My kids also love coming here. They have different events and reading, plus they separate the areas for little kids so I can easily find the age appropriate sections. The cafe is nice and have great desserts, but although it is Starbucks, it is not connected with the rest of the chains and you cant use your Starbucks card to pay.

Everyone at this Barnes & Noble is so nice. I get weirdly happy when I come here and its busy - lets me know there are people willing to get out from behind their computer screens and read books. Ive never had a bad experience here! 📚
