    A bookstore right up my alley by essential touch on 3/27/2011 via Citysearch

    I live right up the alley from Tattered Cover (well technically down the alley) by a few houses so we feel pretty lucky and are frequent customers. The people in there are more than exceptional as far as customer service (they are really…

    The best environment for browsing books in Denver by John Fiala on 4/15/2010 via Citysearch

    The Tattered Cover is a fantastic local bookstore that's been in Denver for a long time. Recently the Cherry Creek location moved to Colfax, in a refurbished theater which is a bit cathedral-like. There's plenty of place for…

    Book Store by Gina P on 11/14/2007 via Insider Pages

    Tattered Cover is awesome and really huge. They have such a nice comfortable setting for such a huge place. Tattered Cover has so much that you will need a few hours at least.

    Don't let corporate America take them down by caliraider on 11/20/2006 via Citysearch

    I have to give credit to this book store. My kids grew up in the one in CC. I hope everyone supports this bookstore, they are a Denver Icon. They staff is wondeful, and it feels like home.

    This cultural Denver icon is an attraction to popular Authors. When people think of books in Denver it's associated with Tattered Cover.

    Great bargain bin finds! by caraandmike on 2/8/2006 via Citysearch

    Although we prefer the Cherry Creek location, these two stores offer about the same books. The staff is friendly and the bargain bin is worth checking out from time to time. They also make an effort to have lots of authors and book related…

    I love this place! by Cindy M on 11/22/2005 via Insider Pages

    Tattered Cover is the best! The Lodo location is smaller than the original, but just loaded with treasures. The staff is knowleadgeable and friendly. The atmosphere is great at this location. Parking is limited, but I've never had a…

    My favorite bookstore by Debora D on 11/8/2005 via Insider Pages

    Whenever I am downtown, I stop at the Tattered Cover, and I rarely come away empty-handed. They have a great selection, are housed in a big old building with loads of character, and the people working there know books. There are lots of…

    Great Bookstore by Sarah L on 11/2/2005 via Insider Pages

    You won't find a better used and new bookstore in Denver. They have everything you want and the atmosphere that you want. The staff is very knowledgable and polite. I love just going in there for the atmosphere. Just ask for what you…
