After a fabulous lunch at LSA burger next-door, we wandered into the Discover Denton Welcome Center. What a very unique in different feel this place has. A lot of cool and original Denton and Texas themed products, t-shirts, nostalgia items, along with all the area attractions, restaurant, Universityand hotel guide information provided by their friendly and knowledgeable staff. I'd recommend this as a must visit when in Historical Downtown Denton.

Discover Denton is such a huge part of the Denton Square. They are definitely the place to go for #Denton souvenirs and locally-made goods. The store is great - but the community that they have built is even better. I love that they are always one of the firsts to share local events, promote new businesses, and help tourists and locals alike find fun things to do in Denton.

If you're looking for a Denton souvenir, this is the place to look, though items tended to be a bit pricey ($10 for a magnet?) Some of the products were creations of local artists. They did have many handouts, travel guides etc. to the area in the back hall, which can be useful!Staff was friendly and helpful. Conveniently located on the square. Discover Denton today!

Great addition to Denton, Texas. Located in the historic Denton Square this local Tourism, Souvenir, Artisan store with a glass radio studio where the University of North Texas broadcasts from is the cherry on top!
Discover Denton is an important addition to the tourism in Denton because the Texas Women's University and University of North Texas are in Denton and this store is not only a place for tourism but a place that also supports local artisans and im all for it! Locals say Denton is a mini Austin and visiting from the Bay Area I totally think it has a Berkeley vibe. I purchased a few
