Beautiful. The waves of bookshelves and recessed seating areas reminded me of my childhood library. The lovely integration of used and new as far as prices was amazing. A gem of Colfax.

I love this store. The people who work there are knowledgable & friendly. Last night we were privileged to meet Mitch Albom "The Magic Strings of Frankie Presto". His talk was well worth the drive.

A real, live bookstore. Crazy comfortable cafe area w/ free wifi. Tip your baristas and then browse/chill/whatevs. Restrooms in basement w/ elevator around the corner.

If you want some strong kombucha try the high country. Good free WiFi as well and outlets.

Great selection, quiet environment, not musty. Prominently features books supportive of trans ideology in the children's section. Good location.

One of the best book stores in the country make sure you support it by buying here instead of online shops. A great place to spend the weekend with kids and friends!

If you can't find it here, it probably can't be found. Library atmosphere with a coffee shop .

Feels like the cozy library you had in your small home town as a child! No pressure to purchase and super friendly staff!

Everything is awesome! Didn't think I would ever find a store that even remotely compared to Powell's Books, but this place does.

Best bookstore! I love to hang out i the magazine section. Sweet tooth? Treat yourself to a "Sweet Dreams" cookie in the coffee shop. They are amazing!

TC is a favorite in Denver. I loved the old location in Cherry Creek, but this one has charm, too. Nice coffee shop and close to fun places and the park.

Lots and lots and lots of books to browse and choose from.

I asked the clerk if they carried my book, and he looked at me as if I was crazy. Then he called the police. I don't blame him.

During peak hours, the WiFi is terrible. You are warned.
