The Collected Works Bookstore & Coffeeshop

I love everything about this little corner bookstore & Cafe. I have always loved bookstores... the smell, the eclectic people I meet there & infinite ideas and stories that surround and beckon to me as I stroll the aisles.This small book store is no different... AND IT HAS JIGSAW PUZZLES! The smell of coffee and low hum of quiet conversations in the Cafe add to the ambiance.And the friendly, knowledgeable, enthusiast, helpful staff deals the deal. I always come here at least once when I'm in town. I always leave with good feelings & usually a puzzle & a new book (or two).HIGHLY RECOMMEND! A+±

Helpful staff, yummy snacks at the cafe, lots of room to sit and read or enjoy the cozy atmosphere. The book sections are clearly labeled and organized. Convenient, affordable parking nearby which is a plus for downtown.

I love a good book shop!They have a cafe in it, but it was closed when we went. they have a great mixture of books and some fun games for purchase!SUPPORT SMALL AND LOCAL BOOKSTORES!!!!

On a recent trip to Santa Fe, I enjoyed a magical morning in The Collected Works Bookstore & Coffeeshop.This independent bookseller is conveniently located in downtown Santa Fe. On one of my first afternoons in Santa Fe, I decided to drop in for a vacation read. Their books are well organized and they have a wonderful selection (the best I found in Santa Fe, in fact). I found a book from my never-ending to-read list and purchased it, noting that they have a coffee shop and promising myself I'd stop by one morning during my vacation.Which, I'm happy to say I did. The coffee shop is a bit sparse at the moment, offering only drip coffees and possibly pour over (no espresso drinks). There is an espresso machine, so not sure if it's just not operational? I did overhear someone ask the barista and it sounds like some adjustments were made due to the pandemic (but didn't hear all the details).That said, I got a lovely cup of strong drip coffee and a pastry and found a lovely spot in one of their window seats (!!) to linger over coffee and the book I'd purchased earlier in the week. For this book nerd, I seriously can't imagine a more enchanting start to the day.Get to it!

There was an event planned for the evening we popped in, but it felt very rushed. The coffee was acceptable. The atmosphere seemed like it would be nice. There was a chess set set up at one of the tables that my two kids enjoyed briefly. I would give it another try!

Watched the owner berate her staff member over spacing chairs properly when setting up for an event. Clearly abusive, and considering this was fully public, I'm sure she's even worse in private. Don't recommend and will not be supporting. Don't know if she knows this, but it's free to treat your staff well!

A cozy local bookstore where you can get drinks and treats reading the new book you just bought. They also have a discount bookshelf with books as low as $3! If you can snag a window seat (there's only three so keep your eyes peeled) you're in luck. Snuggle up with your book and coffee!

My boyfriend and I went in to Saturday to browse and it was too crowded, so we came back to purchase a book on Sunday. When we went up to check out the man behind the counter was on the phone and ignored us for quite some time, then treated us like a bother before calling someone over to check us out, and misgendering me in the process. If he is misgendering cis females I hate to think how he treats other people. Very rude and upsetting experience and I will never give this establishment another dollar nor recommend them when people ask what to do in Santa Fe.

Visiting Santa Fe and was very pleased to find poetry from local authors on the shelves. Picked up an autographed copy from a local author. Staff helpful and friendly. Did not visit the coffee shop portion. Small, but seemingly effective book nook.

If the way they treat the local authors whose heart and soul fill their thoroughly politicized shelves, I have zero inclination to spend a dime here. Heard from a friend that they haven't paid him for the books he consigned. They claim they lost them (not sold), won't pay him, won't return his calls. The staff is as rude as the owner. This place SUCKS.
