This is one of my most favorite shops to find an original gift with an eclectic twist. I never know…read morewhat I will find when visiting the store, but I can always find an inexpensive gift or a piece from a local artisan. The employees are not only friendly but also so helpful. If you cannot find something in the shop that suits your needs, they will search for what you may be interested in and special order it without any additional charges. If you want something personalized, they are glad to do it and make much of the jewelry they sell in-house, even making something to order if you request it. There is a reason that this store wins "Best of Denton" year after year.

Handmade mugs, cards, t-shirts, ornaments, mugs, natural, wooden toys, and other knick-knacks. I will certainly stop in on future visits to Denton and keep it in mind as a place to shop for local gifts. Prices were a bit spendy which is expected for locally, handmade products rather than factory-made. Between Eastside and Bearded Monk-across the street from the post office and only a couple of blocks from Denton's lovely downtown square--a highly recommended shopping or browsing spot in Denton.

Wonderful store, not far from the Historic Downtown Square in Denton, Texas.

The person working at the store was friendly and welcoming when I came in. When I told her I was just checking stores out she told me to make myself at home and let her know is I have any questions. As I looked around I noticed several artistically made items. From a set of glasses made from Topo-Chico bottles to handmade Chap Stick, this place had a nice variety of items to choose from. I also noticed while I was there that this place offers arts and crafts classes right in the middle of the store. They also keep some items out on the table to entertain children while their parents shop. It was nice and refreshing to find a store like this, and I plan to visit them on future visits!

Bookstores are my favorite stores - and Patchouli Joe's in Denton is another fabulous bookstore!…read moreAnytime you have a bookstore in an old historic building you already get my attention. And you create a space that honors the building and updating it with warm wood and fixtures, you're doing it right in my opinion. I loved the selections offered here and so did my daughters and granddaughter. Yes, I bought books here and my granddaughter was thrilled. There's a dedicated children's area with nice seating for them. There was a touch of magic there. Kids were happy and couldn't wait to get to the next book. That is what a book store is supposed to be about. I met the owners and both are genuinely nice and they care about their customers and their business. Both are very knowledgeable and more than happy to help in any way. If you're in Denton, you need to drop in and browse around - I bet you walk out with a great book!

Patchouli Joe's Books was an okay bookstore for me…read more After reading some of their amazing reviews, and exploring some of the other bookstores around Denton I had high expectations for this store. However, I don't know if we caught them on a bad day, if their inventory was really low after Indie Bookstore Day the weekend before, or if the stars just weren't aligned that day but the store itself was very empty. The book selection was minimal and the staff was not exactly helpful. Frankly the store felt too big for the minimal amount of books they had. Also customer service was absent that day and after asking some questions to the person at the counter you could tell he just didn't want to be there. The difference in customer interaction between this store and others around Denton was like night and day. Would I come back to Patchouli? Maybe, but it wouldn't be my first stop when visiting Denton.

Jordan Reyes was fabulous, she helped me pick several gifts including olive oil gift baskets, honey, cornbread mixes, candles, coffee beans, and small jelly jars.

Reasonable prices, especially for the quality of the goods. Highly recommend.
