Kids had the children's breakfast and there was nothing small about it! Employees looked happy to be there, good vibe. Sang our daughter happy birthday. Good start to the day. 👌🙌 Great prices, so cheap.“

“Ate at the 20th for the first time in eons. Still the absolute best chicken fried steak in Colorado! I’ll be back soon! Best part of our weekend!“

“I came to SAME Cafe for a private work event. The environment was clean and comfortable. The staff were amazing and I wish I would've gotten their names. They served amazing food with beautiful presentation. It's a place that welcomes everyone with a great mission! I will be back to continue to support them. Now I have another tool to present to the community. Not many places are warm and welcoming to everyone but SAME Cafe is!“

“Singapore Fruit Tea with Mangoesteen Pudding was yummy and something special.“

“This has to be one of the most wonderful experiences I’ve ever had. Great food, great atmosphere, great people. The breakfast burrito was delicious, the server/bartender was one of the kindest and genuine people I’ve ever come across.“

“Best panini! Very nice place to sit outside and chat. Staff was friendly and fun! Highly recommend! 😊“

“Now this is a place I HIGHLY recommend trying if you are in Denver. I am from California and I have never had a breakfast place with as extravagant options like this place has. I got the bacon fried rice and oh my God was it so tasty and cooked to perfection. They do not skimp out on the bacon pieces and the flavors are so amazing. My boyfriend got the breakfast tacos and oh my were they amazing. For being a small place you would expect it to smell like food, but it does not and that is what I love the most. The atmosphere is absolutely beautiful. They have outdoor and indoor seating. The decor is so cute. The staff is super sweet but that food is top-tier. One of the most amazing and intricate breakfast I’ve had in Denver.
If you have not went here, you definitely need to.“

“A true and unique culinary experience. I’ve read about Bruto but the experience has completely solidified my position on it being one of a kind and rightfully given the Michelin rating.“

“I’m going to be a little bit here but this place is extremely nice 😊 thank goodness!! Denver needs more people like the staff that runs this company! I’d love a chance to sit with the. And chat but they’re always so busy!!! Rightfully so because they kick butt ever time. That safe to say I’ll be Bach. My autistic husband and kiddo loves this place“

“Absolutely delicious and great spice!“

“The absolute best coffee shop in Denver! I ordered the Horchata Latte which was served hot in a traditional red clay mug. My beverage was smooth had a delicate body, a gentle sweetness and fruitiness, and an acidic snap to finish off the experience. There was ample, clean space to sit with friends in the courtyard right outside with chairs and tables. The shop was colorfully complimented with locally made goods, homemade Mexican pan dulce, and offered so much more than coffee. They even make atole which takes me back to my childhood! I can't wait to try everything on their menu. This is my new favorite place in Denver and will quickly become yours too!“

“Our favorite matcha in Denver!“

“What a wonderful surprise to stumble into! Clean, pleasant and friendly family operated diner. I didn’t know one could still get a $5 burger meal and it was fantastic. Not fine dining but really impressed with the service, food, & atmosphere! Highly recommended for a great affordable meal!“

“My family tried a toast, a bowl and a couple of the juices, and they were all amazing. We can’t wait to go back and try more things.“

“The staff was friendly made you feel like family. the food was amazing. Loved the red beans and rice. The drinks.. ooo Chile.. Thank you Nola for the experience. 10/10😁“

“I always enjoy myself there both with the 4 legged staff and the 2 legged staff. All are very friendly and looking to be loved. When I lost a kitty and wasn't quite ready for another one, my cup was filled with happiness when I went there for comfort. they have fun events that I always look forward to like Bingo, Trivia and arts and crafts. Check them out and give and get some love.“

“Milk Tea People has a nice atmosphere and a good selection of drinks, but I found the milk tea to be much sweeter than expected. The tea flavor was enjoyable, but the sweetness overpowered it a bit. If you prefer less sweet drinks, I’d recommend asking for reduced sugar. Overall, a decent spot for matcha, but the sweetness level wasn’t quite for me.“

“love the Employees!!!! 10/10 Recommended“

“Wonderful staff, everyone is so friendly/positive. Drinks are made quickly and well, cool converted garage building. Owner is very kind and personable.“

“Parked right in front for $2, walked in to a nice clean restaurant, and immediately greeted. Nice beats in the background. And look at this Chi-Bap bowl and Chicken Teriyaki bowl. Good variety of drinks and we only paid $35 for two people including tip. 10/10 recommend !!“

“I’m a regular for lunch (can’t beat the many rotating soups) but had no clue they had breakfast. The breakfast sandwich was actually 2 sandwiches and delicious. Very fresh and filling. I sampled the breakfast soup and highly recommend that as well.“

“I was impressed with the delicious flavor of the Haitian sipping chocolate and the mazapan atole. Excellent customer service and a lovely patio.“

“This place is so beautiful! We went to see the Christmas decorations. I was blown away. The drinks were amazing! They had options for gluten free people and that’s always a plus for me! Highly recommended!“

“Great community-focused space for all types of events.“

“Always awesome coffee (Pablos), but more than that...they take the time to learn names and specific drinks and always very kind and fun. I go every morning. Great food too with plenty of vegan options for my daughter - breakfast burrito is out of control. Can also get to go bloodies. What’s not to like?. Support a local business rockin’ it! Thanks y’all!!! ☕️ 🤘❤️“

“Genuine coffee shop-free wifi, great vibes, fast service, free parking close by, plus great coffee and treats-a Denver staple east of Downtown“

“They have amazing breakfast burritos, well actually anything you can order with green chili on it is guaranteed to be amazing! Its been a while since I've been in but they used to have some pretty groovy gals waiting tables and its never too long of a wait to get your food.“

“Found this place because it’s close to my boyfriend’s new job, and I am so glad to have discovered it! The dirty chai is one of the best I’ve found, and it’s clean and seems to be relatively quiet during the week. Free WiFi and lots of outlets to charge a phone or laptop, and outdoor seating is delightful.“

“Really lovely food that tastes great & various options on the menu, including all day breakfast options (vegetarian and vegans are also catered for) which is a big thumbs up from me! Really lovely staff, cosy & convenient ! A great asset to our village community.“
