Poor Richard's Bookstore

Definitely will be back! We hosted our book club here and were able to bring three toddlers along. The back room of the restaurant has a great kids hangout. Staff was amazing and super pleasant. The coffee was delicious and made with love, also got a pumpkin muffin that was delicious!

I have been wanting to visit this bookstore since I moved here back in May. My husband and I finally went in today, here are the pros and cons of our visit. Pros: SUPER cool place!! Many cute trinkets and book accessories, well priced and well organized. The book selection was pretty good (I was able to find the book I was looking for relatively easily) & the books were at a regular price that you would pay at a bigger bookstore such as Barnes & Noble.Cons: the costumer service was SERIOUSLY lacking... the workers were not warm friendly or welcoming. I was quite disappointed as this discouraged me from wanting to come back, despite how cool and fun the actual store was. Overall, I will come back hoping the service is better and maybe this was just an off day for everyone working. But if not, there are other bookstores around!

Excellent collection. Eclectic. Charming. Very helpful and knowledgeable service. Highly recommended.

I love this place! Every downtown needs a safe place like this. They have a cool gift shop, bookstore, restaurant and cafe all in one. I got some espresso cups and this cute ring. The cafe was perfect for after lunch cake and coffee. The best part was the friendly staff. And they seemed super real and nice:)

Love browsing the store and seeing what I can find. I love that there is a selection of new and used books. I'm an avid reader, so being surrounded by books is my happy place. The store also as a fun selection of journals and socks and other kitschy items. The only complaint I have is this: Stephen King and Dean Koontz do not make a horror section lol. I love horror, but Stephen King and I just don't seem to mesh well, I know I know...personal preference. The prices are a bit high for some of the used books, but I understand the price on the books is a little bit more than if I was at a bookstore outside of the prime real estate that is downtown, so I try to remind myself of that lol. Oh! And I've never been met with anything other than a friendly face from anyone working there. Which is hopefully a great sign

Loved this place! Incredible curated book selection and cute jewelry from local artists. Fun gifts, etc. Make sure to eat and drink at Bird Nest (House?) down the street!

We love Poor Richard's! We go here at least once a week to see their selection of books. My husband and I are avid readers so we are always looking for more books, so we stop by and look for books that are a great deal. We have even dropped off books and their process is super easy. Their employees are very kind and very helpful!

Great section of books. If you're not 100% sure what you want to read let one of the staff know you need a little help. They are usually spot on with their recommendations. Can be a little pricy but they always have a great deal of books on sell. Look for the yellow tags.

Super helpful staff, helped me find the right spot for artsy books. I loved their selection of used books and cute home goods, all great quality at a great price! The only note I would have is the noise. With the attached cafe, it got to be pretty loud in the bookstore (especially with the live music) but my latte made up for it!

We came back twice in the week we spent in Colorado Springs. We love bookstores and cafe bookstores. Lots to see and buy. Nice crowd. Good coffee drinks. Free parking if you're willing to walk a few blocks. We bought too many books, a small complaint because buying books makes the whole family happy.
