Bought an item from the technology department that was non-functional. Tried to return after 30 days...RETRUN POLICY LIMIT IS 15 DAYS!!! Most retailers offer 30-90 day returns. They told me to call the manufacturer. They did not offer to help me in any way and looked at me like I was bothering them. Terrible customer service. After spending hundreds of dollars at this store over the last few years; the least the staff could do would be to give me credit to the store - and I didnt even get that. Wont be shopping here again and would especially recommend staying away from the technology department. The manager is inconsiderate.

Went to Bookstore three times over reunion and commencement week-end. Got EVERYTHING I needed including a Brown hat, tie, bag, books, graduation card, and.... did I know I needed this... Brown chocolate! The service was great and fast... they had set up some additional cash registers to handle the rush and it was fast and smooth. I like the new designs they have for the Brown t-shirts. Got one that I am going to wear often. Am going back to look for more books today.... :)

Everything is pricy here, but Brown apparels or items are really good and designed beautifully. But its expensive. The place is really nice and I love the sofas near the windows. The sofas are not that comfortable but their location is nice! I like this place when its not crowded.

Good selection of gifts, albeit somewhat pricey (nothing atypical for a university bookstore/gift shop, however). Its hard to compete with retailers like Amazon as far as books go, but for the convenience factor local shops always win.

Very bad electronics at high prices. They take advantage of your urgency and do not strive for true excellence as expected from Brown. Other than that, though, I like it. It has improved over the years, it seems, believe it or not.

These T shirts and sweatshirts are unbearably poorly designed and priced exorbitantly. Why is everything so ugly? Why is a sweatshirt $75? The medical school section is particularly poor cringe-worthy.

Coffee, places to study, Lots of stuff with the Brown logo on it. A wide selection of pens upstairs (Im weirdly into writing implements).

This wonderful store is open 7 days a week including Saturday 10-8 and Sunday 10-6. Please update your erroneous information!

Its where you go to buy overpriced things that say Brown on them. The cafe is excellent though.
