“The gifts, the books, the food were all amazing!!! I visited here about a year ago with my son and this time I had to take my book loving sister! She found some amazing books and then we shared a sandwich and soup which was delicious”
“A very cool place for anime lovers and enthusiasts. While many other shops have some anime / manga related items, this shop is 100% in your face with it. I'm not a huge anime fan, but I can certainly appreciate the awesomeness that this shop provides. Tons of manga, figures, collectables and more. Even the atmosphere is awesome as they play songs from different animes. I don't read manga, but this place has convinced me to try it out”
“Such a lovely little place! The books are in near perfect condition and there's more genres than you could think of! There's little knickknacks at a good price and the books for the wonderful price as well. Worth the visit and I will be very returning!”
“Very nice selection of Catholic gifts and cards. We were able to find a selection of priestly/diaconate ordination cards so aren't all giving the same ones.”
“Focus on the family was mentioned in reddit, so we decided to check it out with our toddler. The building was huge, but we had no problem locating the welcome center.
Going down to the lower level, we were impressed at the attention to detail and the immersion atmosphere. The butterfly stairwell was beautiful and set the tone nicely for the rest of the experience. Our toddler enjoyed exploring the corridor and thought the plane was cool, but she had a blast in camp what-a-nut (the toddler room). We also enjoyed the puppet theater, the stage, the megablocks, and the wardrobe to Narnia. For lunch, we stopped by Whitt's soda shop and enjoyed the pretzel and a very affordable personal pizza.
What a lovely, free, no-strings-attached facility for little ones to enjoy!”
“Love the staff here, so friendly! This location also has the better Manga and comics section. I've also had an odd luck streak here. A book I was looking for quite literally jumped off the shelf at me. I thought it wasn't there until all three fell and there it was. I always feel good after stopping in. ?”
“Our family absolutely loved visiting the Focus on the Family Welcome Center! From the moment we walked in, everyone made us feel genuinely welcome. The facility is beautiful, clean, and best of all, it's FREE!
There are so many fun activities for kids of all ages. The 3-story slide was a huge hit, and the play areas, especially Whit's End, kept everyone entertained for hours. One of the most unique experiences was being able to make a reservation to record our own radio broadcast. It was such a fun and memorable activity!
We also enjoyed the delicious ice cream, and the prices were very reasonable. You can truly see the heart behind this ministry. The staff was incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful, creating such a welcoming and encouraging atmosphere.
We had such a wonderful time making family memories and left feeling refreshed and encouraged. If you're in the Colorado Springs area, I highly recommend adding this to your itinerary. It's a must-visit for families!”
“Great staff. Large selection of books and other entertainment like Manga. The staff can do speedy special orders if they don't have the novel you want on the shelf. They feature local authors. Support your independent bookstore!”
“This place has a very welcoming atmosphere, and the staff just top it off. Nate is my absolute favorite. Super sweet and intelligent. Would definitely recommend going here. If you have any questions on plants, ask Nate.”
“Now known as Basecamp Books. Great place to spend hours browsing Books!!!! The Staff is awesome and knowledgeable about inventory. Willing to go the extra steps to help you find the perfect books!!”
“Good vibes, helpful people, love the books here along with the cafe and areas to sit down to work or read. Several other items here that also are not books like legos, but book related toys stuffed animals, things for kids a whole section just for kids. And the selection of books! They also had a 50% off selected hardcover books ! I love the editions that are for B&N that are always so pretty. They also have a section where they set out book just released that day and I love that!”
“The owner was super helpful in finding me exactly what I was looking for, and I got to say hi to her cute schnauzer too! So glad I came here instead of just going to B&N or Target!”
“Stopped in here and was greeted by the lovely owners (I do believe) and they gave me lots of information - and their staff did too! This store had a wide variety of books and I was able to check some off my list of things to buy...and some I wasn't even looking for! Definitely will be back!”
“Stopped in just to browse. First of all, their prices are awesome. Sabrina was very helpful and kind. Overall an awesome shop for all your metaphysical needs. Highly recommended!”
“I'm guessing this is the PPCC bookstore and I'm happy with this establishment out side of the extremely expensive price of books. But, that's the cost of private education.”
“Again, have local bookstore, will travel. To be fair, we had quite a bit of time to kill on our last full day in the city, and having visited and/or sworn off all other tourist-type attractions in the area, we needed a place to huddle.”
“Pretty standard college book store. As always some people are helpful and some aren't. It's a roll of the dice. But for the most part everyone here seems to try.”
“This is a great little coffee shop, especially if you're staying here. The coffee, tea and food quality are really good. It also has a great little courtyard with solid internet. If you come to see the castle, it's worth a stop. Even if you're nearby, it's good enough to swing by.”
“Store was super cool and had tons of stuff you don't see often/not at all anymore. I was able to buy lots of gatcha yugioh stuff and was so pumped because of it. I also loved that they had older bakugan cards/sets. Very friendly/social employee too. Cant wait to go check it out again!”
“Best adult DVDs
Best toys out there for grown ups in women and Men
Rare findings with every DVD known to man you can find here like collectible to anything even glow-in-the-dark dildos smooth and it feels real”
“This bookstore is perfection. An excellent selection of both new and used books that's well organized and used books are in great condition and fairly priced. Staff is friendly and helpful. They also have a great variety of tarot cards, notebooks, enamel pins, book totes, and art prints. I'll definitely be back!”
