I Heart Denver

I came in for a couple gifts for family and had such a fun time personally shopping through. The gift shop is located in the Pavillions mall on the second floor towards the back. Their whole selection went above and beyond my expectations honestly. I got 2 coasters, and a magnet, and the cashier kindly wrapped up seperately for me. I don’t usually shop for souvenir/gift stuff because I travel too much to collect, but every now and then I pass through shops but I haven’t seen such a good gift shop in a while. Section are super organized and they’ve got magnets, stickers, games, hats, mugs, books, board games, coasters, and way more. Side note, if you purchase anything from any stores, the clerk should point out on your reciept the code to enter the bathroom.

I enjoyed looking around; the shop has A LOT of different things which are perfect for gifts (postcards, keychains, magnets, shirts, stuffed animals etc.). The only downside in my opinion—especially from a tourist visiting from out of state—were the prices. For example, one (small) magnet was about $5 & a small teddy bear was $20. 😅

Definitely recommend coming here for souvenirs. They are pricey but be aware that the shops at national parks or other tourist attractions are even more expensive!!!

Great shop at the pavilion. The wait to checkout was fairly long. But they have lots of cool souvenirs and gift items. I got some stickers and magnets. Lots of great artwork, water bottles, and mugs to choose from. The hoodies and clothing were a bit over priced but good quality. Would shop here again. Good spot to visit as a tourist in the area.

Surprisingly nice Denver-themed gift shop, hidden off 16th St on the 2nd floor inside Denver Pavilions. Good for locals and tourists alike. I am a local and thought they had a nice collection of Denver/CO-themed items. I planned to go in just to ask for the bathroom code but I ended up buying a mug and sticker. Not overly tacky like you might expect. Come check it out. It's a shame the Pavilions have so many vacant spaces at the moment as I think it's a really nice, clean, well-designed outdoor mall space that has potential. This store has survived for a reason!

The cashier had the most stank attitude face when I returned a shirt. We found a better deal at another store. She didn’t even speak back after I said “have a nice day”. I’m glad I did end up returning bc I do not support businesses with rude customer service.

Such a cute tourist shop for Denver! Had lots of art such as postcards, magnets, and posters that were made by local artists and were actually cute rather than other generic tourist shops. A little hard to find, was on second floor of a little shopping center.

The staff could be friendlier since their customers are mostly tourists. Souvenirs are not a necessity so maybe being more welcoming to people that want to buy novelty items would be in their best interest. Otherwise the variety and quality of the merchandise sold is pretty good.

This store is so conveniently located on 16th St. and has the absolute best variety of Colorado items anywhere. It would be fun if they had items from other areas like Vail, Aspen, Breckenridge because it's fun to stop in after skiing and before flying back home. Otherwise, the selection is wonderful and customer service is always great.

This is such a fantastic shop to pick up all those unique gifts. I got something for everyone and everyone was very pleased with the quality

Staff was kind, helpful, and friendly. Lots of great items to choose from. Very nice shop.

Such an awesome store. I want everything in this store. If someone just wanted to buy all my birthday presents here I would be happy! Located on the second floor of the 16th street mall. The items sold here are less souvenir shop and more custom items that well represent Colorado made locally. Great for someone who is just visiting or for someone who lives in Colorado. Come check it out for yourself! I bet you will not be able to leave empty handed.

Super cute selection of Denver and Colorado items. Kids, adult, home, and snacks! Worth a stop if you're looking for souvenirs.

Great stop for all your gifting needs. It was my first visit to Denver and I was leaving my boys behind so I knew I needed to stop somewhere to find some goodies to bring home. Their assortment is fun. Some things are a bit overpriced ($28+ for apparel) but it is better quality than your average souvenir shop! The sales rack was my friend as well. I have a small infant at home and I refused to spend more than $15 on a Denver onesie he probably would wear once, sorry. Scored a $10 onesie that had a small mark on it... (I didn't mind since I wash his clothes before wearing.) Checkout went smoothly- the staff is cool and personable. I ended up grabbing a magnet and stickers while on line which cus why not? Bathroom code was on the bottom of the receipt since this location is in an outdoor mall. For all your gifting, stop in and check em out!

This little shop is so lovely and so delightfully queer!!! I love buying gifts here and knowing it supports small business & local artists. Everyone is always super nice too. Yay.

I found this store on the Everywhere is Queer app! The workers were very nice and friendly, and the store had tons of cute stuff. It's such a cool collection of touristy stuff and stuff made by local artists. I felt like everything was reasonably priced.

Whether you're from Colorado or are visiting, the I Heart Denver Store is worth a stop. There are a plethora of items, from all different price points and you'll surely be able to walk away with something you like. They've got books, shirts, food, mugs and so many other cool items. Plus, if you check in, you'll get two free buttons of your choosing. Being a Colorado Native, I definitely felt immersed in our culture and absolutely loved the store. This is not you're regular tourist shop. I felt that everything had a purpose and meaning, while also being well thought out. The store looked aesthetically pleasing instead of just thrown together like most tourist shops. They've definitely bought the best of the best items to sell and show.

Amazing selection of Colorado items, postcards, ornaments, buttons, stickers, shirts, natural soaps, and snacks. Reasonably priced.

It's located upstairs, near the security office - in case anyone has trouble finding it like I did lol. Owners were super sweet and they had a cute selection of souvenirs!

Omg I this store. Although this store is geared toward tourists, I think locals would love it as well! They had great art, funky jewelry, posters, glasses, mugs, socks etc. It is on the 2nd floor of the mall area.

Customer service is the best I'm from California and they helped me find some nice souvenirs

Great souvenir store where you can find a gift for anyone. It's a little hidden, but it's on second floor of the mall. The people who work there were very nice and pricing was fair.

nice little spot for tourists. little pricey but the staff was very nice and i was able to find what i needed.

This place is surprisingly awesome. It's located in a super basic mall (I'm talking F21, Victoria's Secret, Sephora, H&M, and so on) so I really wasn't expecting to find anything interesting. Was killing time before a movie and randomly ended up here. The store is full of unique and locally made souvenirs. Art, clothes, various goodies. Saw so many genuinely cute and interesting items. Their T-shirt designs were really awesome as well. Highly recommended if you need a souvenir to take home or just want a cool new shirt or some art to hang on your wall!!

The I Heart Denver Store is an awesome local shop in a sea of chain stores in a big mall. I don't recall how I found it the first time, but I'm glad I did! I've visited Denver a handful of times and I try to stop at this store each time I'm in town. They stock all kinds of fun Denver themed items: cards, housewares, clothing, jewelry, art prints, stickers, souvenirs, trinkets, etc., many of which are locally made. I've picked up a bunch of postcards, stickers, and souvenirs for friends and family back home. The products at the I Heart Denver Store are quality, not junky knick knack stuff you get at those big souvenir shops downtown. It's like an Etsy store in person! Not everything is Denver themed, so I was able to get some yogi stickers and a cute Corgi card for my friends. Apparently Denver, the store Corgi, is around sometimes, but I have yet to meet him. I highly recommend stopping here for a fun gift for yourself or a loved one while you're visiting Denver - or if you're a local, pick up a card to send to someone from out of town! I'm definitely going back the next time I'm in Denver.

I had I Heart Denver on my list of "things to do" when I visited Denver and almost decided not to pop in once finding out it was located in a mall. I assumed it would be a cheesy gift shop with nothing worth looking at. There was post cards, keychains, stickers... but they also had beautiful artwork, (non-tacky) t-shirts, children's books, snacks, and all sorts of other cool stuff... all made locally! I ended up purchasing a sticker, postcard, and a really nice shirt from the brand Coloradical. I was thoroughly impressed by this store and would highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area. I'm kicking myself for not purchasing one of the baking mixes they offer!

I was looking for a Christmas ornament that was Denver themed. I assumed given the time of year and the name of this store, they would have something I was looking for. This was certainly a very touristy place as I would expect it to be. The selection was fine overall and the store was clean. But I was having difficulty finding what I was looking for. I was very obviously skimming around for something specific and the two people working there did not ask if they could help at all. So my friend and I continued our search until we found the section we were looking for. I would have thought I was being sensitive since I didn't get help. But that was the first thing my buddy said he noticed as we were walking out. Unfortunately, they just had cheap flat ornaments and none of them said Denver. It was all Colorado and other Colorado cities. Very odd for the I heart Denver store. This would be an A-ok experience. But with the lack of customer service, it was a sub-par experience.

Don't let a "mall store" push you in another direction. This store has awesome items related to Denver and Colorado. The staff was also super nice! I will be going back before my trip is over to get some gifts for friends and family. :)

Cute shirts, great souvenirs! Convenient location! Def. check it out if you're in the downtown area.

Very very cute store w lovely momentos to take home and reasonable prices. Highly recommend if you're looking for souvenirs you won't just junk next spring cleaning. I wish I had taken some of the Bigfoot stuff

Support Local! Handmade and handcrafted goods made with love. I love this store! Full of cute and upcycled, and recycled things and art pieces created by locals. Very well organized with an excellent atmosphere and great gift ideas. From upcycled bicycle chain hooks, recycled cards to posters. I'm an artist myself, so it's great to get ideas here. My only criticism is what is up with the high-priced beard balms, beard oils, beard conditioners, beard wax that I've seen everywhere lately? #Lumbersexualsgonemad

Stumbled upon this store as I was browsing around the Denver Pavilion, located on the 2nd floor next to Victoria's Secret. Lots of Denver made trinkets ranging from mugs to tshirts to magnets to hand-made jewelry. I love that this store supports local artists where they have a partnership, each artist will get 70% of the sales to each item. That's really generous! I visited in the midst of a Denver cold front, many cute winter accessories were available. There's literally something for everyone in this store, great place to stop by for quality souvenirs. I ended up buying a Denver magnet for $3. Every staff member I encountered was genuinely nice. I'll definitely stop by again when I'm in the area. 2 free Denver pins with a Yelp check-in!

A friend and I were looking for some Denver/Colorado goodies to bring back as souvenirs and this store had everything we were looking for! Shirts, keychains, hats, mugs, local goodies, books - you name it. I heard one of the cashiers say they like to use local retailers too which is always a plus :-)

To know me is to know that I heart Denver. Like, big time heart Denver. So you would probably guess that the news of a new store opening in LoDo named "I Heart Denver" would have sent me into fits of glee. You were correct in your assumption and I finally made it over to the store today. From where it's located now in the Pavilions, it almost seems like part oft he intent of the store was to be a sort of upscale souvenir store for the many Denver visitors the 16th Street Mall sees everyday. However, this pop up store does something most souvenir shops don't: 70% of the sale of merchandise goes directly back to the artists who made the unique pieces found in this shop, which makes it an appealing place for me to shop as well. The unique pieces are also all made by Colorado artists. Awesome. Things run the gamut from Denver t-shirts to prints of a map of the different Denver hoods. There's jewelry (which I couldn't resist) and magnets and posters and framed pieces. It's not the cheapest place to buy, but knowing that I'm supporting local artists makes it worth the money in my opinion. Seriously, I'll be back to this store, since there were about 20 other things I wanted, but I had to limit myself to a few small things today. If you heart Denver as much as I heart Denver, you should visit the I Heart Denver store. Hearts for everyone!!!

I was so happy to find a store like this in Denver! I was in search for more modern postcards that were on cardstock versus the flimsy ones you can find at any old shop and I wanted stuff that was made locally. This was PERFECT! Everything in here was sent in by a local artist or had a local theme to it. I wanted to buy everything in here but I walked out with just the postcards and the free pin with check-in. Whoop!

The sale associate who rung me up, charged me for something I did not purchase. Small store with no customers, you got one job lady.

I heart Denver is a special retail project to support Colorado and Denver's creative economy. It's a cute souvenir/gift shop located on the second floor of Denver Pavilions. You can get here by taking the free mallride bus. Stop is at 16th st mall and Curtis st. We got some Denver magnets as souvenirs (We collect magnets from cities we visit). Also got 2 free Denver buttons - free with yelp check-in. Their items are not over priced like the other souvenir shops we've been to. Employees are very friendly and helpful. Recommend this shop if you need a remembrance from Denver.

I needed to get some tourist items before leaving Denver. This place had nice reviews. It was harder to find than expected. It is a nice store in a very nicely mall right in the center of downtown. They had a good selection, I have seen as good or better at the airport though. And the prices were pretty much the same. I did find what I needed though.

I'm happy to see that there are cool souvenir shops popping up in all major cities and the I Heart Denver Store is no exception. Like some of my fellow reviewers, I gave shopping almost no priority while visiting Denver. After taking pictures of the huge DENVER sign outside the Denver Pavilions (where this store is located) and wandering about, I happened upon the store and its bright colors beckoned me in. Denver goodies of all kinds (postcards, coasters, posters and prints worthy of being framed, coffee/tea mugs, stickers, toys, jewelry, and more) can be found here and the fun part is that they are made by local craftspeople and artists. Souvenirs are usually frustratingly expensive but I felt good about spending my moolah here because of the quality and beauty of the items. I grabbed a tee with a bicycle emblazoned on the front that I still am wearing years later. If you're visiting the Mile High City, take back some of its charm by buying from this cool store, which is easily accessible on 16th Street by walking or taking the free mall shuttle.

I'm giving this gift shop 4 stars because they had a large amount of various Denver souvenirs, which happened to be what I was I need of when I visited the mile high state. The prices are reasonable but I found that Denver tshirts were better prices at the Denver airport gift shops.. shocking! I just didn't want to wait last minute to go souvenir shopping plus who knows if it was just a random sale at the Denver airport and not the usually price. Anyhow. Nice place in downtown Denver to shop for souvenirs!

Perfect store for any tourist. This place is super cute. It has all your souvenir needs. My boyfriend and I were stopping by Denver during our cross country trip. We collect magnets so we wanted to check this store out. This store did not disappoint. We left with a magnet to document our journey.

Just a caveat for my review: I came in expecting a traditional souvenir shop, which this place was not, hence my 3 star review. That was my own fault I guess for expecting something different. I collect magnets whenever I go to a new place, so I was looking for a souvenir shop where I could buy a cool, unique magnet. Found this place inside of a strip mall so came in, and was surprised that it was more of an upscale Denver themed boutique shop. Didn't find what I needed although my bf ended up getting a cool T-shirt. They do give you a couple of free pins if you check in on Yelp though.

Nice little store on the second floor of the mall. Had touristy items, and some pictures/paintings on the wall. Missed out on seeing the corgi dog. Didn't really see anything I really liked, but they have a medium size selection. It's not like your typical touristy store.

I stop by every year when I visit the family in Denver. Stop by and support local artists. You will find something for everyone on your list. Everyone had masks on and hand sanitizer was available. Don't forget to check in on Yelp...you get some free buttons!!!

I received the best service from Sanjana, last week, and today. I live in Denver & I'm not crazy about going down to the 16th Street mall, but I do think the store is super well curated with a lot of Denver's best artists. While I could just get their works online, it's top-notch service from Sanjana that will keep me coming back. She's super-knowledgeable about the brands they carry, has great gift suggestions & just a positive, happy presence. I think she represents Denver wonderfully to all the tourists, too, which is important. Overall, this is the best place to pick up a gift or souvenir in Denver

I loved this store. Its a great place to get the locals art work among other CO things . I spent an hour just looking at all they had to offer. Its worth your while.

This place located inside of the Pivilions mall. The stuffs they have in the store are from local designer ! It is really awesome. All the shirts have an awesome design and really nice fabric ! However, since it is all local, it is a bit pricey. Thank you for being the last put stop before heading home to OKC

Located on the second story of 16th Street Mall in Downtown, I Heart Denver Store is seriously the best souvenir shop I've ever been to in any state. Everything from the unique, handmade Denver memorabilia to the quirky, funny, and some not safe for work knickknacks that this store had to offer, I was thoroughly amused. Tons of shirts, stickers, magnets, really anything that can be engraved, etched, or colored by the word Colorado, they have it. I could have bought everything in there. The super friendly gentleman behind the counter made me love this store even more. He may have been the owner, I really should have gotten his name, but he was welcoming and helpful, and his overall energy was infectious. If you're looking for something to remember Denver by, do yourself a favor and come here. Tip: Check in on Yelp and get two free Colorado buttons!

We took a short trip to Denver and of course i was like..."let me check out yelp for a good place to go." We drove over 30-40 min to check out this store because it had great reviews. I wasn't as impressed with this store as most seem to be. It was first off all very hard to find. Second it seemed to be just Knick knacks about Colorado. Some where cute but almost everything was way over priced. Absolutely did not deserve as high of a rating as the average on yelp. Not sure if the owners or staff are pumping the reviews to drive business. If you are in the shopping area around....I would certainly my walk through....but do not go out of your way to check this place out.

Great store has a lot to offer and the service was great. If you're looking for great souvenirs or gifts to give with a locals touch from Colorado I heart Denver has a unique selection!

Wonderful souvenir shop. The staff is helpful. Prices may be a little bit higher than other shops but youre paying quality over quantity, supporting local artists, and getting unique souvenirs.

I took a trip to Denver specifically to go here. I felt the items that were sold were more tourist-y items then local artists. Not to mention, I thought the store was really hard to find. I walked around all of 16th mall until realizing it was on the second floor.

I got the most amazing canvas here and I love it! Tyson was a great help and answered all of my questions and was very friendly. I do wish the wall art was rotated more often, as a local, I've noticed it doesn't seem to change often and the skyline pictures are very outdated, but I love this store and always recommend it to friends and family who both live here and visit!

Souvenirs that you actually want! This store makes my heart happy, and is really the epitome of Denver in a store. Everything is made by local artists, and is extremely well done. If you're visiting Denver, want to buy gifts, or just buy cool t shirts, check this place out! While it may be slightly more expensive than any of the other souvenir shops on 16th, you'll actually keep the stuff you buy at this store.

I truly do heart Denver so what better way to show it than to support the I Heart Denver store and all the local artists who's goods they sell? I like that this store in in the Pavilions. It's nice to have some local flavor around that area and on the 16th Street Mall in general. Anything you buy here will most likely be 100 times greater than anything you buy at any other souvenir shop, and of a higher quality. I like that I can buy my baby a "Made in Colorado" onesie and that I can buy my husband a similar shirt. And then that I can make them wear these items on the same day. Cuteness overload! I like that I can buy myself many bicycle-themed items (including sweatshirts and glassware.) And that I can probably find a gift for most people on my list in this store. Lastly, I like how friendly the shop owner and/or workers are. They've always been pleasant and helpful. And of course they support the community, which in turn makes me want to support them that much more. If you haven't been to I Heart Denver you are missing out on some cool things and should remedy this as soon as possible.

This is a gift shop that has a fair variety of items. Unfortunately it didn't have quite what I was looking for. Good part is 70% of purchase goes back to the artists, which is great.

If you want cutesie Denver/Colorado nonsense, this is your store. They have a wide range of unique local artist items, ranging from shirts, socks, tumblers to the random assortment of art, jewelry, paintings, wood art, water bottles, and kitchy chairs? I'm serious, they have it all. Prices range from inexpensive to stupid expensive, depending on your gift giving range. I bought a snow hat that said "I heart snow" with a little Colorado flag on it and it's my favorite winter piece. If you're in the city and near by this is your #1 stop for Colorado swag!
