Do not try an order your VCU basketball gear from their site. I have tried to order 3 different shirts only to receive an email saying "We might get it again but were not sure" and if it were to come in it might be 6 weeks. Make it not available on the site? Pitiful service.

Do the textbooks really need to be that pricey!? The idea of college is to grow up and not depend on parents as much. Many students lack parental assistance and have to decide to buy books rather than groceries. This company should renegotiate with the vendors.

Obviously textbooks are insanely expensive(dont buy them here), but for everything else you would need from a barnes and noble, its great. There is a starbucks in here, but for VCU students, this starbucks does not accept dining dollars/ram bucks.

Always very clean and smells pretty good because of the Starbucks™ that resides in its heart. Employees are very kind souls who usually look you in the eye and are very good at pretending to care about the stupid thing you are asking for.

About a fifth the size of a normal B&N - half the building is VCUs "bookstore," which is more sweatshirts and paraphernalia than books. You cant use a B&N gift card because its "not technically a Barnes and Noble."

Text book clerk was pretty arrogant. I had a question about a book I bought and a previously clerk said it was eligible for return. I was pretty much shooed away without him even looking into it.

Clean, well lit, and staffed by friendly people. The study area/coffee shop has plenty of places to sit and work, and there is a good selection of snacks, candies, and chocolates to munch on.

In addition to the expected textbooks and supplies, this location carries a good selection of general reading material (fiction and non) and surprisingly good selection of childrens books

It is recommended as VCUs bookstore but I have had problems with getting books for three out of four classes. Im not impressed.

Its not your typical BN, but its more cater towards the university. However, very nice staff. They are always professional.

Bob Rodi

The building is very nice and air conditioned. There is also a coffee shop inside. However, the books are overpriced.

Usually have everything I need. Often pretty quiet except during the start of school rush.

Textbooks are expensive and so are VCU gear. But the cafe and study area is nice

Cant even pay textbooks using financial aid before the fall season class starts.
