“Magnificent bookstore!! So many new and classic mysteries. Augie, the owner, is so helpful. And, so many special events with authors! Have enjoyed for many, many years. ❤️❤️❤️”
“In a world where bookstores have all but disappeared due to the digital age and competition, it is nice to see Barnes and Noble is still thriving. This location is a nice entrance into Oakbrook Mall. This location has 2 stories with a Starbucks located on the second level.”
“I made an online order for a couple books to be delivered to a friend in Oak Park for her baby shower. The staff packaged the shipment as a gift, kept me updated with emails on the status, and they even ended up shipping the books even earlier than I expected. It was a really smooth process and they were so kind and helpful in each email interaction. I will be recommending the Book Table to my friend as a her go-to bookstore in Oak Park if it isn’t already.”
“I WORK NEAR NEEDFUL THINGS, AND FOR YEARS I HAVE VISITED THIS STORE. I FEEL LIKE A KID EVERYTIME I GO INSIDE. SO MANY BEAUTIFUL THINGS CALL MY ATTENTION. I COULD STAY THERE FOR A LONG TIME, AND I ALWAYS BUY THINGS THAT BRINGS ME HAPPINESS. I LOOOOOOVE THIS STORE! ”
“This woman owned independent bookstore has a great selection of books, fantastic recommendations and is continuously promoting diversity, inclusion and literacy. WHAT MORE COULD WE WANT!”
“Made an order over the phone from out of state. Absolutely perfect customer service! Book came in exactly as described over the phone and was very well packaged. Highly recommend!”
“A fun bookstore. Cafe inside. Friendly cashiers. Quiet. Close to other shopping & food. They would do well to have a better variety of books in some sections/departments.”
“Fantastic selection on African American and African history, biographies, children's literature, comic books with Black/Latino characters, selections of hair and skin care like shea butters, aprons, artwork by Black artists, teachers resources too.”
“Outstanding selection of books in a well-organized store. I especially appreciated the section where the staff selected their favorites, and there are little sticky notes explaining what the book is. It's worth a visit for fellow book-lovers.”

800 S Rohlwing Rd, Addison“What a great facility! A little confusing on the check in…. I think you need to check in before you shop. I don’t really know. I’ve been here a few times and each time, I find cool things for my classroom. Lately, I’ve need stem stuff for an afterschool club and scarce has not disappointed with options or ideas. Thank you.”
“A large variety of current and past books by old and new authors. Also CDs and small gifts and keepsake items for giving excellent customer service. Along with the delicious sit down and relax area and even further in the back there is an area to read on beautiful leather sofas. Well done, and thoughtfully designed .”
“Barbara's bookstore is a great place to grab a book or magazine or gift for someone while traveling traveling through Chicago's O'Hare airport. The staff at these bookstores are extremely helpful and knowledgeable in regards to All things relating to books! They have a computer system and can look all the books they have. I also appreciate they have helpful items for kids like drawing books, markers colored pencils. I had to stop here because I forgot my reading glasses and they had a wide selection to choose from.”

“I stop at this store every few weeks to see what's new. The comic book section is small, but the pricing is reasonable for the most part with exception of the uncommon/special issues, which I've found to be higher than comic shops and eBay. The graphic novel section is full and diverse.
There is usually a good selection of board games at this store and reasonable pricing. Video games is lackluster but that's probably due to the Disc Replay in the same shopping center.
The book selection is good with a decent assortment in niche topics.
I often find some worthwhile items in clearance at this store.”
“When a bookstore is more than just books, you venture into novelty gift shop territory and that can cheapen places like this. Fortunately Kinokuniya strikes a good balance of attracting new business while still selling books and in this case, Japanese literature. There's all sorts of Japanese books, manga, and magazines here. There's Japanese paper craft, candles, incense, puzzles, plushies, and so much more. It's delightful to peruse all the goodies in this shop.”
“Excellent university! I'm proud to have finished a degree there. The class room sizes are small and the staff and teachers were very helpful. Just a good Christian school.”
“I loved that it has that" old books" smell. For me personally, I love that. But here I feel it's not very overwhelming. You get a hint of it. To be honest, It didn't look like a typical second hand bookstore! The shelves are clean and neat and well ordered. It is very much organised and you can easily browse..there are also chairs to sit on. Will definitely be back! I got a surprise set of books that I found quite worth the price! There are also free books at the entrance on the left”
“My go-to place when I need a Polish book or a CD. I live out of state, so whenever I order something and it might not be in stock, the owner calls me to let me know about the options or delay. Extremely kind and friendly. I always make sure to visit in person when I’m in town and always find something for myself. I highly recommend it!”
“Great place. They are always happy to order something they don't have in stock. I would much rather support an actual book store than purchase something on-line from the "A" place even if it might be a few $ more.”

800 S Rohlwing Rd Unit D, Addison“This place is a hidden gem for media lovers. They have a great selection of records and CDs, as well as DVDs and books.The priced are very reasonable. They may not have everything you're looking for, but that's the fun of used record stores.”
“4 stat because they aren't actually a part of the school. You have to show them your schedule in order to return rented books. Better to rent than buy though, so 4 stars. I also miss the corner bookstore that used to be on 5th before you turn into the school, but it is no longer there. Rent your books here though, or buy used. $$$. Better off getting your books though Amazon earlier if you can. Staff is still very helpful in getting your materials.”
“This is a good store to go to if you’re shopping for calendars. Make sure you go when they are heavily discounted. I went today and it was 75% off. We were able to get two calendars for $6.73. Besides calendars, they also have puzzles, board games, etc. I recommend checking them out. Just a FYI, they do open later than some of the other stores. On Sundays, they opened at noon. Service was good. It’s located close to the kiddie haircut place.”
“I love this place. The staff are great, the products available are amazing, and I love playing in the Yu-Gi-Oh tournaments too. I used to play competitive Yu-Gi-Oh at this location, building my Yu-Gi-Oh collection back up, and can't wait to come back, meet new people, form more connections, see old friends, and more! 10 out of 10 from me, dadgumit!!”
“Convenient. Got books you need for class, stationary supplies, book bags, school swag, and candy. Everything slightly more expensive but when you need those gloves for lab it's worth it.Order ahead for stressless pickup.”
“I ordered 4 puzzles and the packaging was fantastic, even after the delivery driver tossed the box at least 20 feet to deliver it, we are one of his last stops on his route. The exterior box was dented, but the puzzle boxes were not. I will definitely order again from this company. Thank you.”
