Message from Tattered Cover Book Store

This world-famous bookstore blends the feel of a neighborhood library with corner bookshop attitude and a cosmopolitan inventory.

  • Huge inventory of books
  • Selection of coffee
  • Literary events
The Tattered Cover Book Store previously located in Cherry Creek has moved to the Historic Bonfils/Lowenstein Theater on Colfax Avenue at Elizabeth Street -- across from East High School. We have plenty of free parking and the same great selection, service, and literary events.

Editorial Review for Tattered Cover Book Store – by Citysearch Editor

In Short
The historic Lowenstein Theater was completely refurbished for Tattered Cover's Colfax location, which features mazes of bookshelves and soft chairs. What was formerly a sunken stage now holds theater books and the spots where box seats were now have reading tables overlooking the main floor. The in-house coffee shop offers tasty treats and drinks, which can be enjoyed in the nearby magazine area. The book-filled downstairs houses an extensive children's collection.

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go
The store's willing staff can help find almost anything: out-of-print books, obscure titles, academic tomes. With access to 37,000 publishers in the U.S., it's a safe bet they'll be able to track down what you want.

The Extras
Between all the Tattered Cover stores in the metro area, over 600 author readings and children story times are held every year.
