I went to this location because it has a designated parking lot as opposed to the others, and although it was busy on a Sunday afternoon, I imagine it would be easy to park during the week. I was disappointed there wasn't more seating for reading, as I needed back support and the various benches don't provide that. Still love a bookstore though :) they have a great selection and it's easy to find what you're looking for.
Smaller version of the flagship store in downtown Portland. Good parking here, and no traffic or other issues to deal with. The store has a good selection of both new and used books. Lots of employees around, however none seemed very inclined to help find products. They also had a great selection of gift type products. The store was very clean, but restroom was pretty nasty.
This place has lots of books. Like, a lot of books. Nothing really strange about the Powell's Books. The weird part is the mall it is attached to. It has a bunch of empty stores in it. Strangely dead, given how busy all the other near by stores are. Also, I just discovered the þ key on the keyboard. Not sure how to pronounce a þ or what words use it. Probably another reason to go back to Powell's and find a book on non-standard letters.
Easy to get to, plenty of parking worth a fair selection of books! It's by far more convenient to sneak in here and see if they have what I need versus deal with parking and people at their other locations! Very friendly staff at this location with plenty of food options nearby too! I love Powell's!
Great collection of books. Great customer service.
Bonus: close to a lot of other stores too!!

Was there for the B. Dylan Hollis book signing. There were a lot of people there but they kept everything moving nicely. It was a little too warm.
Powell's Books is always a delightful experience. This visit was for a book signing event. All staff encountered were helpful, polite, and very organized regarding all aspects of this event.
