I LOVE THIS PLACE! The Tattered Cover is by far the best bookstore in Denver. First, it is a wonderful hang out spot. It has that feeling of familiarity and comfort as soon as you walk in, with a coffee shop, tables to sit at, and hand-printed signs indicating books of note. Secondly, it has just about any book you could want, and if you cant find it they will find it. It definitely has the most extensive selection of magazines in Denver (tons of foreign or specialty magazines). One complaint is that they do not have used bo... read more
Great Books I have been going to the Tattered Cover Book Store for a little over a year (since I have lived in the Denver area). The staff is always very helpful and friendly. When I have trouble finding the book I need they always help me find it.
Tattered Cover is more than just a book store Forget Barnes and Noble or Borders! If there's a book or magazine you're looking for, Tattered Cover's got it. (and if they don't have it, they'll easily order it for you) Not only that, they have an excellent coffee bar, offering more choices than most established coffeehouses. You'll feel right at home curled up in one of their many couches, and hey, if you need anything, one of their knowledgeable employees will help you. I could spend days there. PROS: More choices than you c... read more
Very Awesome Bookstore This place is huge. It has 4 floors of books, all seperated by genre. The first floor has al the periodicals and magazines. I reccomend this store to anyone who loves books. It is my favorite place to go and read. They have chairs available, and the staff are very friendly. PROS: Friendly staff, Organized, quiet. CONS: A little ways from downtown.
What's Not To Love? This is THE bookstore in Denver. Amazing selection of books, magazines and accessories, visiting authors (names you may recognize, like Bill Clinton), lectures, coffee... The Tattered Cover is a place to browse, then buy. I always take visitors to the Tattered Cover. It's a place to check out great products as well as people watch. -All types hang out here, and everyone gets along magnificently.
Can you say INDEPENDENT Bookseller? If the Tattered Cover doesn't have it, you don't need it. This is absolutely the best book store ever built. It is famous across the nation and once you walk in the door you will know why. It is super huge and has a fantastic selection. People go here on dates it is so great. Don't go unless you have time to browse.
Books, Coffee, and a Whole Lot of Atmosphere I know exactly what you hate about Barnes and Noble, Borders, Waldens. They've got the same amount of books, the same prices, and the same feeling of emptyness. The Tattered Cover is different. Locally owned and operated, the bookstore is a heaven for green deluxe carpeting, old creaky wooden shelving, and a quiet conversation. The store features three full floors of books, ranging from brand new computer teachers to old, shabby volumes in bargain bins. The store is always filled ... read more
Fast and reliable I just want to send my deepest gratitude to the staffs who are working at this store. Definitely, you are the type of people whom everyone wants to transact with. Fast and reliable.
HUGE selection and great coffee! This bookstore has a fabulous, one-owner-shop feel to it without sacrificing great selection. Their help is actually helpful and they make an awesome ginger-pumpkin latte. Never go to the chains stores if there's one of these around. PROS: Selection, good food and beverages, friendly staff CONS: Not enough of them!
