The location is great, but phone service is really bad. they cannot be count on, when it comes to reaching someone by phone. The phone will ring from extension #2 or ext#4, no one will ever pickup. At least that was my experience when trying to call from 7 to 10pm.

Always like barnes &noble. Unfortunately the isles are not set up well for a wheelchair. Does have an elevator for the second floor but trying to maneuver a wheelchair was a little challenging.

Great selection of Georgia Tech clothing and attire. The Adidas line of clothing is amazing this year.

They force you to wear a mask.

They have also closed all the bathrooms (they were even closed on gameday Sept 19 2020).

Prices are very high on clothing - be prepared to spend $80-$120 for most men's shirts and $40 for hats.

Not just for Ga Tech students!

Not just for Ga Tech students!
Great selection of Tech memorabilia as well as books and electronics. They match Amazon prices!

Went to the technology store in the Barnes and Nobles to buy Airpods. While the written policy said otherwise, I asked the employee (who asked his manager) if I could buy the Airpods and try them out, and then return within 14 days. They assured me countless times I could, so I bought them from this store. Went back 10 days later to return them since I did not like, and the employee refused to allow me to return them. He said even if the employee who sold you them stated and assured you otherwise, the store policy says the opposite... Store Manager Peter Nguyen is a liar...I'm sure they get some commission off selling these products, so its their best interest to lie.

I was in here about an hour ago to pick up my buzzcard for Georgia Tech. I forgot to get my card yesterday at orientarion, but they still allowed me to get one when I arrived. Something happened to their machine, and I had to wait a little longer than normal. As a result, a younger employee gave me a free stainless steel cup for waiting so long. EXCELLENT customer service. It is greatly appreciated!!!

Attempted to return a flag, and the store would not accept the return as the packaging was opened. Flag was never used. You need to open the packaging to examine the product! Poor return policy, will purchase items from other vendors with normal return policies to avoid this in the future.

The Georgia Tech B&N is a hybrid between public bookstore and college bookstore. As a result, it has benefits but suffers from the worst of both too.

The professional staff, the real book people, are great. The students often care less and know less about what they're doing.

There is a much smaller periodicals section than one would like and a ton of non media merchandise. It may help subsidize the books.

Parking is scarce, so transit is the way to go here.

Though wheelchair accessible, some things will not be easy to reach, nor do they keep isles with a three foot clearance.

Wish I could give it negative stars. The web site said it was open until 10:00pm, but when I got there at 7:00 the door had posted hours closing at 6:00pm. This is an inexcusable blunder. If the management can't even determine the store hours what hope is there for the store's future?
