    When I went there they had 50% off a good amount of books, small but nice little bookstore. Definitely check it out if your around there.

    Small and limited selection. Fine. Lady working there was rude and treated a kid poorly. Spoke to him like he was an imbecile.

    A fan merely for the owner's warm, friendly service and fair prices rivaling Amazon and B&N. A great small biz to support.

    This is a nice bookstore. Yes, it's your typical Barnes & Noble chain, but you can always count on…read moreit to have a good selection of each genre and is always fun to browse through. My husband and I come just to grab some books and read/skim them while enjoying a coffee. This Barnes & Noble has a nice big Starbucks attached (it's separate - so you have to purchase of leave B&N merchandise before going in) but it does make it nice to get a coffee and wander the bookstore. The one downside to this B&N is that a few months ago they rearranged a lot of the store to make room for games, Legos, movies, and a lot of non-book related things ... Kind of taking away from the whole enjoyment of a store just for books!

    Every time I try and order a book to be on hold before it's released I never get a notification…read moreregarding its arrival. I called for over 2 weeks including the release date since the store is an hour away only to then be told I'd get an email when the book came in but it could be a week or two after its release. Seriously? Who wants to wait 1-2 weeks after a book you've already been waiting on gets released?! I ordered the book a month in advance. Never got that email, stopped calling, ordered the book the day before from Amazon and had it on my front porch the day it came out. Thanks for nothing Barnes and Noble. Also, you cost more.

    My friend just moved to the area so I decided to stop by. This is a very dense shop with lots of…read moreawesome books, metaphysical items, crystals, and jewelry. The overall vibe here is very positive and uplifting, to say the least. Every time I go into a metaphysical or book store, I just wander around to see if anything calls to me. This time around, I ended up purchasing some Palo Santo. Jenny helped me out at the register and was such a sweetheart. She has such a sweet aura! If you're interested in getting a reading or healing service, call ahead to schedule an appointment. There are plenty of services that are offered, including psychic and Tarot readings, reiki, and iridology (intuitive reading of eyes). Definitely looking forward to coming back!

Everything about this store is to bring comfort…read moreto your mind either through spiritual information, therapeutic massage, or supportive gatherings. (Substance abuse groups meet here in a separate room to help their recovery.) This place also have information on an outside bulletin board for seminars outside of the shop that promote healing and wellness. If you are looking for some sort of metaphysical healing in your life, take a moment to stop by and speak to the owners. They are friendly and caring people. Be aware: You can't get to the bookstore off of Hampden if you are heading East.

    I don't give five-star reviews lightly, but Enchanted Grounds (Highlands Ranch) absolutely earned…read moreit. My 12-year-old son has recently gotten into Dungeons & Dragons, and for his birthday we reserved a table here knowing that Enchanted Grounds welcomes tabletop RPGs. I'll admit, I was a little hesitant about leaving my son and four of his friends somewhere new on their own for nearly four hours. Any concerns disappeared almost immediately. One staff member in particular, Paul, went above and beyond. The boys would not stop saying, "Paul is the GOAT." He checked in on them throughout their entire time there, helped them out whenever they needed it, and genuinely made them feel welcome. More importantly, he made me feel completely at ease as a parent. It's rare to find a business that not only creates a fun, inclusive space for kids but also earns the trust of parents so effortlessly. Enchanted Grounds Highlands Ranch has my respect and admiration. Thank you for giving my son one of the best birthday experiences he's ever had. We'll definitely be back.

    I'll give the benefit of the doubt, this just isn't the coffee shop for me…read more I had a long event day in the area, so I decided to beat the traffic and get to this part of town earlier than I normally would. Just wanted a place to work on my computer, and ultimately that's what I got. Enchanted Grounds is a cafe and game emporium. Like for real, they have such a huge selection of games. If you are into that, I truly love that for you! As far as the cafe is concerned, the best part was not paying Denver coffee prices! Only a few bucks for an iced coffee, god bless America. The staff weren't all that friendly or interested in talking to customers. It definitely gives off humble, rainy day coffeehouse vibes and that's not a bad thing. Bright, tacky colored walls, one guy was sleeping in one of the booths, a giant group of 80+ year olds at the big community table, and gamers galore on a Wednesday afternoon. It's low key, wifi was fine, coffee was fine. Nothing stood out for me personally. Considering it's close to an hour away odds of me coming back aren't high. I wish them the best!

    The vibes in this place is waaaayy off! Honestly do not come here. I'm a woman of color and the…read moremoment I walked in I felt negativity. I was followed around by three different employees constantly asking me if I needed help and staring me down. Even if I look at the situation differently they don't even allow people the space, freedom or even privacy to choose what they need themselves or the chance to ask for help if they need it. Instead they all hound you down like you're in a clothing department store and make you feel uncomfortable. Especially the guy working there with the gray/white hair was orchestrating all of the employees around. Another reviewer mentioned this and yes there is a strong atmosphere of intolerance, paranoia, judgement and deeper under lining issues. I was standing in line behind a gentleman and when it was my turn at the counter, the guy with the gray/white hair told the lady working the counter to leave the counter and told another lady to come check me out which was odd and he had a very nasty look on his face. Then the lady at the counter asked me if I had a membership and I said no, She then says "ok don't worry we are not pushy" and then proceeds to laugh and say "at least I don't think so". They know exactly what they are doing. If a spiritual store is worried about people stealing or whatever then they you are NOT the real deal and it is a reflection of who they are and what they are actually doing. If you are alarmed or uncomfortable by a women of color coming into your shop while your shop is named Goddess/Isis you should NOT be in business! This place is not sacred or safe. Buy your stuff online or go to a place with integrity, a place that has respect and honors spirituality and people, all people. Avoid this place and do not support this business.

There are watchdogs everywhere. It is not a calming experience. It is a place that you go to if you want to get roughed up by all the wanderingstore clerks. Who ask you if you need help every three minutes and put out a vibe of get your shopping done and get out of here. I used to go to this place and relax I would always buy a few things and feel very good about my experience. Now it's like walking into a Walmart, that is the vibe that is there now it makes me sad to say it but this is what it's like.
