I absolutely love this bookstore and coffee shop! It feels so cozy and welcoming when you come in and that is partly due to the amazing staff that work there! Great selections of books and amazing options for gifts as well as boutique items! The coffee is amazing as well! The atmosphere is such a great place to have get togethers, meetings, or just some alone time to read!

If you haven’t been into the Wanderer, do yourself a favor and take your little self there! They have a wonderful selection of drinks that meet the needs of every season. Are you looking for clothes? Check! Needing a new book? Check! Their selection is vast. Upon opening the door, the senses are tickled with the scents of happiness and home! The atmosphere is so inviting and the staff is always happy and helpful. There are multiple sitting areas that are warm and welcoming. What a beautiful addition to the historical downtown.

The bookstore seems like they want to focus more on being a boutique/coffee shop than a bookstore.
There used to be a great variety of books & now there's not. I'm a dark romance with all the trigger warnings book reader and I haven't seen them carry anything like that in a long time. It would be nice if they carried more of a selection of books for our small town. I would shop there more often than going to cheyenne if they did.

What a gem! I visited for the first time last weekend from Douglas. I couldn't believe it was my first time in! Your kids selection was the best I have seen anywhere in the state. Great learning materials, books, and toys. Cozy little nooks to snuggle up with a book and a warm drink, and womens fashions too! I have been telling everyone about the Wanderer on Gilchrist.

Between the relaxing sips of a variety of coffees, lattes, teas or cider and the pages of your favourite book I am convinced every town should have a Wandering Hermit in it. This place has a highly diverse selection of books to choose from, as well as the atmosphere to sit back and enjoy them in.
But it's more than that, if you're gift shopping this is where the unique and surprising gifts are, puzzles, toys and "It just made me think of you" things.
They also have a small selection of snacks and light meals, even gluten free! If you're passing through and want a break from the road be sure to stop in, you won't be disappointed!
