A message from Robert Placencio, General Manager

Welcome to Borders-Northtowne, in the heart of the Northeast Heights. Our store is staffed with friendly and upbeat book, movie, music, and coffee lovers, who are committed to helping you find just what you need.

Our Employee of the Month, Garrett, will "WOW" you with his love and knowledge of books and movies.  His current recommendation is The Watchmen, a groundbreaking graphic novel that he describes as the "single best work of fiction to deal with the Cold War." For movies, he recommends Raiders of the Lost Ark, one of his top 5 favorite movies.

While in the store, please stop by our Seattle's Best Coffee Cafe to savor a delicious hand-crafted beverage and to enjoy a beautiful view of the Sandia Mountains. One of our best-selling books, The Sandia Mountain Hiking Guide, comes from our All Things Local section and will give you some great ideas on how you can not only enjoy the view from our store, but also experience everything the mountains have to offer. Fridays are extra special in the cafe because you can receive a free medium beverage with the purchase of a bag of whole bean coffee.
