REVIEWS OF Deseret Book IN Utah

Amy Bytnar

Very nice place. There is a cookie shop inside as well. There are religious and non religious items there.

Alexandria Wells

Beautiful place since they’ve updated it and added a Crumbl! Love the mini artwork museum in between and the children’s section. They’ve added books on mental health and divorce and topics that probably wouldn’t have been discussed before. It’s very organized and they even have a VR area! The only thing I would recommend is weeding out outdated books that could be perceived as sexist or old-fashioned.

Jessel Joy Hidalgo

Place smells so good. Very clean I love the store. Staff are very kind in helping me and giving recomendations.

Brittany Hoehn

They have done such a beautiful job with this store's renovation. It's peaceful and welcoming. Love coming here for all my gospel needs.

Baird Fullerton

We always have a positive experience at this store. I love bookstores, and this is one of my favorite stores. It is always clean and nice; a quiet oasis in the city with a large selection of books, artwork, and other items for sale. There is something for everyone in the family to enjoy.

Robert Morriss

Great selection!

Michelle Phillips

Very nice book store.

Sierra Merrill

Great place and great staff.

Carol Moss

Even though the store is under major reconstruction, the customer service is still excellent. They were very personable and helpful and guided me to exactly what I needed.

coytton

If you're not a mormon don't go, it's too religious

Riah Loveless

It's a great place to get spiritual books or religious materials. I like getting post cards there to send to people outside of Utah.

Ryan MacDonnell

Store is in the process of remodeling so it was limited for space but the staff made it a pleasant experience and we can't wait to see the store when the remodeling is finished

Cole Astin

Right across the street from the Temple. Beautiful store. They have distribution services there. All in all a great store.

Jeff Gilbert

Stephanie was the best salesperson, so helpful, so kind, so polite. Beautiful store. Need more time there.

Sue Chamberlain

This is a terrific book store for The Church of Jesus Christ of Later-day Saints. They have everything.

Diane Brewer

I buy a lot of ebooks, and occasionally regular books that I order and have sent to my home.. Deseret Book is the first place I go when looking for a good book to read.

Gracielle Bassig

Very helpful staff! They make it very easy for you to find what you need

Kelli Lyn, Bates

"I would like to give a prayerful shout out to the LDS church for their warm , cozy and welcoming Deseret Book stores". I have had the pleasure of visiting my local store at The City Creek Mall in downtown Salt lake City Utah across from the LDS Temple Square In the near future Iam greatful to announce that I will be a guest once-over for the purchase of the DVD called Saturdays Warriors it was the first and the most fantastic play I have ever had the pleasure of seeing with my big best brother Jamie a memory worthy of praise and thanks to Jesus! Happy 2019 Kelilyn Bates

Monty King

Newly redesigned. A place for everyone.

Laura McCombs

Ann Kronmiller

I had a delightful young woman help me as I browsed --wish I knew her name!

Julie Junge

Amazing selection of great books and decorating items.

will tunner

Bad store in city creek .. so beautiful but imposible pay no cashiers... bad experience

RA MF

The place feels new with the current renovation. Perfect place to buy gospel books and other things.

Tony Stallings

This Deseret Book store is one of the largest ones I have been in. They had a great selection of LDS books, scriptures and other popular books. They also offer a great selection of art, gifts, small furniture pieces as well as Lion House food products. Great location across from Temple Square and part of the City Creek shopping mall.

Matthew Sandau

The remodel is awesome it looks really cool! They have a Krumbl cookie and they have completely just rearranged and it looks great!

Traci Morrison

They have some of the best and cute products

M Johnson

Helpful, friendly staff!

Jordon Corley

Staff was courteous. The large gallery of pictures was nice to view. The selection of posters was disappointing, though. We came to the store for the purpose of picking out some affordable posters that we could display in our home. But selection was minimal. I am sure the selection would have been better online.

Beth Ann Brown

Great service and wonderful books

Lucas Amon Castro

My favorite store ever

Karl Becker

Great atmosphere and wonderful and friendly workers.

Diane Dascanio

Robin was most helpful, pleasant and all around wonderful!! Thank you for your help!

Marcie Walters

Wonderful help finding what you need.

Mary Fernelius

Great atmosphere and wonderful people helping you find what you're looking for.

Dawn McEwen

They are in the midst of getting ready for a grand reopening on April 30 and boy is it going to be GRAND! It looks good so far. The finishing touches are being done. They will now have rwo areas for listening to Audiobooks. The new children's is interactive and adorable. The new art section is actually a gallery and has that quality to it. The hone decor section is filled with new items. The Church Distribution area and Beehive clothing is updated and has moved to the front of the store. The entrances have changed exclusively to the side but, that in no way interferes with the functionality of this lovely flagship store.

Tyler Price

A whole variety of religious and appropriate literature and materials.

Jared Riches

I love going to deseret book, I walked in there this time and they had done a complete remodel. It looks great, I don't know what was wrong with it before.

kceedilla

I love going! Great service!!

Elise Christensen

Excited I got three books that I was able to journaling for two of my kids and my grandbaby they always have really fun things as far as personal

Samuel des Etoiles

Excellent service! I went to get a set of scriptures made, and it took only 15 minutes. Highly reccomend for all!

R Schroeder

Dont count on them being open. Stupid$$

Gregorio Billikopf

I love Deseret Books and I am a long-time client. I have one suggestion to make. Don't say that eBooks are discounted (comparing the price to a hard copy, when discounting the eBooks it should be clearly based on a regular eBook price). I have always had great service from your staff, very polite and wonderful. And also Deseret Books is very responsive to my suggestions and comments. It would be great for us who do a lot of research, to improve the way results show up, and to have the ability to include the reference as an option. I love Deseret Books. Thanks!

Austin Horton

Beautiful newly renovated store, complete with a cookie shop to boot! I do miss the 2nd entrance and exit, as well as the Cafe Nauvoo goodies for sale, but the virtual reality experience is very fun and the garments department is superb...other than a nosy employee who wanted details about an expired recommend. She had said it didn't matter if it was expired but then asked questions as to why it hadn't been updated. Luckily for me it wasn't embarrassing but I cringed at the thought of someone else with a different story having to go through it. (It was a month past, and it was because we'd just moved)

Cassie Grange

Love the options and services, just not a fan of the remodel though. I thought it felt very sterile and unwelcoming, strange for one of our bookstores.

Wade Brinton

Nicely remodeled book store full of good books and church materials. Very nice staff and easy to find layout. The art gallery is interesting to peruse. They don’t know what they are doing putting a crumble in the store! Oh they know exactly what they are doing! Same with the cougar creamery ice cream!

Trey Lee

Super friendly and helpful. There is a Distribution Center located here and they helped me find the right fitting for the cloths that I needed. I even returned some cloths that didn't stay together very well and they gave me much nicer and better fitted clothing right there. Cool place to visit too with a great atmosphere.

Spencer Stevens

I love this store!!! Tons of awesome book selections, clean and neat, and super friendly staff. ❤️ And, there's a bakery inside! How awesome is that?

Kyle Bringhurst

Great place to go and bring family. It's all about the family and supplies good family fun activities, literature, and media. Friendly staff too.

Maggie Newbold

Sales people were very helpful and friendly.

Alex Lallas

I love feeling peace at that store. I feel happy, joy, and the love of God in that store.

reva brooks

I tried to download a portion of an ebook I wanted, and you said it was a free sample, so I clicked download, but it never came. This is not a common experience for me, but I think the process for downloading ebooks is difficult if you are serving a mission in Brazil. So, that being said, when we return things will be easier.

Rich Couey

Great atmosphere, friendly people in person and over the phone as well.

Shyam Kumar

The satff was really helpful, kind and suggested things that were making a better deal. A lot of good stuff to put in your home on families.

Richard Nance

What a FABULOUS night to visit Deseret Book and meet Sissell, get one of her albums, her autograph, and tell her thank you for a breathtakingly almost holy concert!

Becky Lloyd

Great location with beautiful exhibits inside. They have amazing art and lots of books.

Earnest Watson

I love working there and working on their roller shells

Chuck'N'Jo Bledsoe

A very peaceful place to shop.

Glenn Gorham

The site was easy to use. I had a concern but was able to find the answer while on the site.

keith thibodeau

I didn't go in the book store but I took the City Rollers Segway Tour and learned the history. It was an awesome tour and I encourage you to try it. Great way to learn all about the City.

Haqua Wellness

The place has a beautiful sunset scenery

Bryan Farnworth

This Deseret Book is massive compared to most others I have been in. The selection is great and is pretty comparable to the Deseret Book in Orem by the Verizon store.

Chevy Suburban

Wonderful place to buy books statues book of mormon and anything else you would like

Gillian Beregner

I love this store what else do i have to say. Its great to be LDS!!!!

ryan allen

Super clean good looking remodel, and the place smells amazing with crumble cookies located right inside!

Julie McGannon Raben

Great staff, great selection, nice layout

Eric Reeves

They sell large fresh cookies. Lime coconut was refreshing.

Alex Young

Amazing selection of books, gifts, artwork, and other great stuff. Some staff not as knowledgeable or helpful as others. Overall great experience with all the gospel materials one could hope for

Dustin Southway

I love everything about Deseret Book. It is an outstanding company serving the needs of Latter-day Saints. This is the flagship store for the chain and is a magnificent center piece. Located in the fabulous City Creek Center in Downtown Salt Lake City adjacent to historic Temple Square this is an experience not to be missed. Deseret Books product line up has something for everyone. I am an apologist and history and love the collection of books that fit my fancy. They also carry fine art, fiction, study aides, scriptures, missionary supplies, jewelry, children's items, housewares and decor, and cooking materials from the Lion House pantry. The staff is top notch. I love this company and this store!

Meghan Melton

Such a serene set up

Kelley G. Tedd

Great store. They are currently doing a remodel until Spring '19, but still open.

Marjorie Tuckett

I was so disappointed in the store. I had heard it had been remodeled and was supposed to be wonderful. It is not wonderful. I would much rather go to the one in Fort Union. It actually has a much better selection of books, art and crafts. It appeared to me that the store was about to close with so few things in it. The displays are nice but gives one the feeling that everything has been dumbed down.

Janet Marie

Enjoyed the live piano playing of the hyms while we shopped. I hope no one saw me singing along.

Elizabeth Hiles

Great service. The store is laid out nicely. Clean and organized.

Ew Lawncare

Nice place to buy books

Kelsey Freitas

The newly remodeled store and distribution center is very nice!

Stephan Adelson

There are many great things in the store but at times I get discouraged when I see so many useless plastic pieces of junk that cause such harm to the environment and are thrown away in a short amount of time. I feel we can be better Stewart's of the Earth's resources and curb the materialism a bit at the same time

Tom Nash

love looking around

Trevor Steffensen

Remodel looks great and the Crumbl cookie counter is a sweet addition

K.C. Crookston

This place is the best to buy clean romances. :) I highly recommend it.

Candy Crockett

Brought family in from out of town. This store is a favorite. Sadly, the store was dismantled and very few things were available. You should have done a temporary closure.

Sharon McBride

Beautiful store with a great variety of books for all ages. I particularly love the art. I would have every painting if I had the money. I am hooked on Liz Swindle's art. My savior...

Karen Wieder

Never been to a Deseret Book that I didn't like, always such super friendly people, wonderful book that can change you life, beautiful pictures, and the remodel was astonishing

Priscila Secchi

The store is beautiful after the remodel and they now have crumbl cookies inside

EteU Spencer

Great store. Wish for more variety in Temple Clothes

Louise Price

I ordered a temple skirt on line from the online store. I got the skirt, but it didn't fit--so I had to spend $9 to send it back--then I ordered another skirt (a smaller size), and had to spend $3 for shipping there. That one didn't fit either. I have spent more on shipping than I wanted to--I will now go to a distribution center here in Arizona (hopefully they have a skirt), because I don't want to pay for shipping again. I wish that you had some kind of service where returned merchandise wasn't charged for shipping again.

kung hang

Great service and enviorment

Jill Locke

I always love visiting Deseret Book. I can almost always find what I need. It is unique to L.D.S. needs.

Margaret Willinsky

Always love coming here when I'm in the area.

Tyler Pearson

The remodeled store is amazing!

Johnathon LeCheminant

Deseret Book is a great place if you're looking for uplifting and inspirational media. The Salt Lake downtown Deseret Book is definitely a stop you want to make if you're touring in Utah. The atmosphere in the store is clean and happy, and the associates are equally cheerful, always willing to help customers.

Shawn and Melinda Ambrose

We got to do a virtual reality experience twice each. It was an Oculus Rift gear set-up with an ancient Jerusalem temple bread making activity. The employees were helpful and cheerful. The selection of books and music was good. The atmosphere was restful, clean and orderly, unrushed and uncluttered.

Tom Robertshaw

great service, newest LDS books, DVDs, white clothing.

Robert Pyper

Site was easy to use. Not happy to have to wait for the shipment...

Lawrence M Law

Clean, neat, orderly shop. I needed something fast and didn't have time to browse so looked for a helper to help. I found one at the front desk and he quickly finished what he was doing and walked me to the item I needed instead of pointing or telling me where I should go. Very helpful! I found it, picked it up, followed him to the checkout and closed the sales in under 4 minutes. Awesome!!! Thanks Deseret Book! Very Awesome!!!

Diane Wanamaker

The renovations are beautiful! I love the openness and the overall welcoming feel of the store.

ian kerr

good if you like books

Glenda Horn

There is not one bad thing that I could say about this store, the products or the fabulously helpful staff.

Aze Of All Trades

Greatest of all places for books, and jewelery.

Paul Crapo

Careful, it's easy to fall in love with everything. Staff are great, always very organized and clean. Worth the visit

Bill Atkinson

I was looking for some of Elder Bednar's books on learning. In Amazon the hardback books cost over $100 and the ebooks prices over $25. In Deseret Books the hard backs cost under $30. Clearly going to the publisher's site is the best choice.

Zachary Ferrell

Remodeled design is wonderful

June Perkins

Found what we came for. Thanks. Friendly very helpful staff. Prices good.

Richard Corley

Newly remodeled with a modern feel. VR display was interesting.

Kerstin Hansen

I always love going into Deseret Book. They are helpful and friendly. I always love seeing their smiling faces! The store is easy to get around and finding things.

Elaina Bosen

Great service and employees

Drew M

While visiting the mall downtown I was disappointed o find little more than overpriced clothing stores so you can imagine my joy to see a store with Book in it's title on the mall directory. Unfortunately, this store while being an apparent cornerstone of the mall was almost exclusively devoted to religious (LDS) paraphernalia. I can certainly respect that and if that is your aim by all means this is a 5/5 star store. Beautiful paintings at all price points adorn the walls, some even as an irreligious Christian as myself would love to own, but at the end of the day I just wanted a book store and this simply is not truly such a thing irregardless of what the name might imply to a visitor.

Brandy Heatherly

I always love to visit this store when in Utah. They have a wide selection of books, artwork, and a variety of other goods. During Christmas they have the most beautiful nativities on display. I purchased some ornaments made from olive wood in Bethlehem last December I was there. The staff is always very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend a visit!

Robin Johnson

They were so friendly! I came in as they were closing and yet they told me to take my time and there was no rush! I was visiting from out of town and don't have a store close to me so this was such a treat! They were so friendly and helpful! Thank you for letting me enjoy your store!

Scott Harris

Great update on a flagship.

Margaret Smith

The service is always great

Emilia Suarez

My first time at the store, and I really loved it!!

Sterling Kerr

Great selections, has just about any book you could think of and then some

Amanda Curtis

Was able to get Brandon Mull to sign one of his books...fantastic!

shane kennelly

The best books on the universe are here, and the employees are among the nicest people I've ever met.

George Bennion

Cool store, but only if you're a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Maybe except for the jams, jellies, and some decorations.

N Brown

Decent selection of LDS works. I purchased a special order and needed it framed. I was told to expect 4 weeks, but it was closer to 2 months. Staff were very kind in trying to help, but wish better info would have been given up front.

kikki C.

Peaceful atmosphere. Pleasant store employees.

Felicity Stevenson

I was in your store nearly three years ago in March 2016/April 2016. The only problem I had was knowing that I wouldn't have enough space in my luggage to take all that I wanted, back to my home in South Africa. I loved, loved, loved your store and the wonderful items. I hope that I will be able to return one day and spend time and money there. I wish we had your store in South Africa.

Roy Swygert

A friendly place to obtain books concerning the LDS. Very friendly and helpful bookstore associates.

Justin Murphy

One of my 2 favorite bookstores. Something for everyone and super helpful staff!

Rodney Briggs

Great service and there is a good snack bar with great chocalote chip cookies

Max Pietsch

Interesting because Mormons

Place Hunter

I like this place beacause they sell great books but also lds music, to say the truth things in here are not cheap.

Ondina Moncur

Vast selection of LDS books etc, convenient but limited supply of Temple clothing. Staff are wonderful.

Robert Morton

I really like what they did with the renovation. Looks great! The main thing they could improve on is, their foreign language section. It leaves much to be desired.

Mathew Womack

Love the art remodel upfront and the spacesness of the store. Staff friendly and efficient!! Got cool CTR necklace for my daughter and a Captain Moroni Dog tag for my son!!

Kenneth Hall

Lovely store. Everything LDS

Lehi Johnson

Nice place for the lds faith

Donna Thompson

There was a lot of construction. They didn't have as much merchandise out, as I'd hoped, for that reason. We were in the area for a conference. We are not near a Deseret book so it was a little disappointing. But progress sometimes requires pain, so we don't hold it against them. And there is always online shopping, easiest of all.

P. S. Dupont

Great bookstore to visit if in the Salt Lake city area. They also have a big variety of latter Day Saints board games pictures books movies etc you find a little bit of everything that you can find in a good book store. The things they sell there are of good quality, it can be a bit expensive but check out that discounted section. So give it a visit next time you visit Salt Lake city. Sometimes they have some famous people that go there to meet fans so you might be there once that happened.

Cris Biggs

Amazing place with many Book of Mormon options and with Crumble cookies as well.

Jonah Brown

Really nice place.

Melody King

Fantastic staff despite the amount of construction .

Alexis Koelling

There is a lot of really beautiful artwork for sale on display. I love to come in here just to window shop and check out the new books even if I'm not really looking for anything. The staff is always so kind and helpful. There are books and games for the whole family and everything in there is wholesome and uplifting. They sell non-religious books in many genres. This is my go-to place for clean romance novels.

zach milner

The down town Salt Lake Deseret Book is always a wonderful experience. The staff is freimdly and helpful and there is almost always beautiful new artwork pieces to look at. There are yummy snacks and drinks up front and lots and lots of books. Definitely would recommend paying this Deseret Book a visit.

Josh Wadsworth

Very clean store and fun to see what new and cheesy toys they have! (I'm looking at you Brick 'em Young)

David Hansen

Most things are sold for a premium, but otherwise a wonderful store.

Stephanie Riches

They are just about done remodeling. It looks so different and so fun!

Great little book store.

I always love going to Desert Book, it has such a wonderful atmosphere. The staff are always very friendly and helpful. All around great place.

Debbie Stebbing

Always so many interesting things to see and great books to enjoy.

It used to be better but now it only sells Church stuff.

The new renovations are super cool!

Phyllis Hall

Wonderful place to buy gifts and Christian books.

Forbush Family

Brinley Bastian

I always love trips to Deseret Book, One of the places I feel most welcomed.

Dwight Schwendiman

Online experience went very well. This is not the first time I have ordered online. I have never had a problem.
