Alcove on Arapahoe is a convenient shopping plaza in Boulder with a group of stores in a mall style concept. It features a great small Safeway with a pharmacy, several restaurants like Flower Child and ColdStone Creamery, and other shops including a novelty store and bank. It offers a friendly atmosphere, USB charging stations, and everything is within walking distance. It is very convenient for nearby guests and provides a favorite mix of shops and dining options.
Nice spot that has a good selection of places to eat and interesting shops, parking isn't the best but it's better than they typical spots downtown in Boulder.

Nice shopping area - from groceries at Safeway to a restaurant, ice cream shop, used clothing, home goods etc. The parking can be tight during peak hours and holidays.

Fantastic except, I wish there were a least one cashier present. But in a college town after hours, I kinda understand.
