So much so, we returned the next day to purchase the sweatshirt I was eyeing and I've hardly taken it off since! So many cute Colorado themed items like your typical souvenir trinkets-- magnets, socks, spice mixes, clothing, post cards, mugs... a little bit of everything!

All About Colorado is probably my favorite souvenir place that I visited in Downtown CO Springs…read more If rating souvenir shops on the scale of cheesy t-shirt shop to high end decor, AAC falls right in the middle. It has a little bit of everything for everyone. AAC is actually two shops in one. It looks like they may have been separate at one time, but are now connected. Both sides have similar items and similar helpful staff. Here are some of the items I liked: Hats: I love a good ball cap. They had several different styles. Shirts: There were a good variety of shirts that were Colorado themed or for specific local attractions. Their shirts were much cheaper than the ones for sale at the local attractions. Stickers: I love stickers. I bought several. There were some that seemed a tad ridiculous, but I am sure they sell plenty of weed themed stickers here. Weeeeeeeed maaaaaaan. Get a job hippy. Coffee Mugs: Even though I drink iced coffee, I love location specific mugs. They had mugs a plenty here. Kids books: Who hasn't read "Who Pooped in the Snow"? Actually, I have not and it made me regret that my kids don't like story time anymore. This store has way more than the items I listed. I think you will like it. I did.

Nice pit stop/rest area to grab lunch after roaming around at Garden of the Gods…read more I got a chicken balsamic wrap which did its job in refueling me. Just didn't care for the overly chunky bits of feta cheese. Great for souvenir shopping. You could easily spend an hour or more if you have time. Theres a big outdoor area as well. I came when it was a quiet day so it was relaxing and peaceful to sit outside. Women's restroom was a bit hidden but mission accomplished.

Is everything on the most expensive truck ? I understand souvenirs are expensive but geez…read more I've been coming here since I was a teen , and it has grown beautifully. I miss out back , looks like they put a weird tent up. , and poured concrete . Got rid of the back yard feel with the garden , grass, waterfall, wagon wheels. , so I was pretty bummed about that . They did however add lots of tables for dining , for their little cafe they have going on in there now . It sure has grown so that is good I suppose . They also threw one of those water mines that you can buy a bag , and search for treasures :) I haven't been here in 8 years and I can't tell if I was amazed or disappointed. Manitou I hold dear to my heart , so regardless I sure am thankful it's still here

This shop is uniquely curated with lots of interesting and lovely pieces. It's unlike any other store in Old Colorado City. This side of town needs a shop like this! It's successful in being interesting in a non-kitschy kind of way. Which, is a HUGE win for Old Colorado City! Bottom line, check this place out!

The three stars is for the cute, and unique items in the shop…read more The missing stars are because of the millennial they hired, and some of the items that are marked up to ridiculous prices. When we walked in, we were not greeted; the young, brown haired millennial at the register just sat there with her phone in her hand. Obviously it was more important than the customers. Several people walked in and out while we were there and she did not look up once to say hello or do anything. One couple wanted to buy some items but when they walked up to the cashier, they still weren't spoken to and the girl never looked up so they put the items back they wanted tp purchase and walked out. We wanted to purchase some items too - I really liked the cute succulent/cacti soap but didn't feel like dealing with the young lady at the register. We walked out too and were not given any type of greeting as we left like all the other stores did that we walked in to that day. I really hope they employee better employees that don't stay on their phones all day or else they will continue to lose business like they are.

The staff is very friendly and there is a lot to choose from. The prices are reasonable.read more

The owner is so friendly and is also originally from the same area as we are, so that was a bonus. The store is not crammed full of stuff like some of the others on the strip but instead offers a pleasant shopping experience. I have purchased several things from there, and all were of good quality. Infact, I have gotten many compliments on the hat I bought there a couple of years ago. Why go anywhere else?

You never know what they're going to have. I bought a really beautiful glass necklace for 25 bucks- hand-crafted by a local artisan. They also have some things that were amazing, for a pretty low price (like a giant wrought iron lantern, priced at $45) There were also some one-of-a-kind art that was a bit more 'spensive. You never know what to expect to find at the Attic- but what ever it is, it'll be cool. This is a good place to shop for gift ideas. I think my favorite thing about the Attic is that it is very openly GLBT friendly. I would guess the owner (who is a super nice guy) is likely gay. This is the first openly GLBT business i've found here. It reminded me of the community of businesses in New Orleans that I used to frequent. Hooray! And in the springs, to boot!

The Spark is a high end gift store located in downtown Colorado Springs…read more One of my favorite things to do when visiting a new town is to find their downtown shopping areas and just browse. I love souvenir shops, gift shops, and everything in between. That is how I found The Spark. I was a little apprehensive when I first walked in because I didn't want my kids to break anything.It's not that they're occasionally bulls in a china shop, but they are occasionally bulls in a china shop. They were particularly well behaved this time so nothing was damaged. The items for sale here are more towards the high end decorative type items. There were several dude oriented items that I liked, including several clocks made from old airplane gauges. I kind of regret not buying one. I did end up getting a Colorado themed Christmas Ornament which is pretty cool. If you are in downtown Colorado Springs and want high end decor, I encourage you to visit The Spark.

There was an issue with the point of sale system but they had us pay at the connecting store so no issues. Come check out The Spark when you're out and about.

I was on the hunt for an angel figurine for my mom's Christmas present and finally found "her" here - complete with cowgirl gear and attitude. I was able to talk with the shop owners who were helpful and friendly and genuinely glad to see me. When do you ever get THAT treatment at a chain store? The hunt & find of unique gift is a big part of the charm in the shops up and down Colorado Ave and the experience of walking through shops that aren't name brand or in a stuffy hustling mall can't be beat.
