This bohemian hideaway at the end of 8th St is a favorite haunt for Golden’s artsy crowd. Browse for books (new and secondhand) in the downstairs bookstore, then head upstairs to find a table for tea among the higgledy-piggledy shelves. Sandwiches, salads and cakes are made on the premises, and the coffee is as good as you’ll find in Golden.
