About:Walk in and breathe deeply. You're within range of 300,000 titles, all arranged on three floors, along with a handy coffeehouse and complete music department. This is one of the bookstore-as-community places, where shoppers are encouraged to put their feet up and read, or to sit at a convenient desk and copy a recipe from the latest cookbook. Children gather for story time every week, and a community room is available for book club and other meetings. Of course, they have a huge selection in every conceivable category, from anthropology to zoology. Notable are the shelves of small-press and foreign-press titles, as well as spiritual and religious books.

    Great Kids Section: Great place to bring your kids -- choose some books to take home! Regular book readings are also a hit. Local coffee shop, excellent selection of other books -- everything Barnes & Noble's got without the utter blandness. Go Local!

    My favorite store in Austin...: and perhaps anywhere! The service, selection, and atmosphere are terrific and it is possible to spend an entire day here.
