50 Best Coffee Shops in Denver

“Great place! Stopped by with family on a quick trip to Denver. Great food and coffee, service was amazing. They need a place like this in SLC.“

“Stopped into Tí Cafe because they have been blowing up on social media recently. I’ve been told with this is the best place to get Matcha, so I wanted to give it a shot. I went in today around 3:30 and it was pretty busy, there were about six people in line, but it went fast. I ordered a Matcha Sua which is supposed to be with sweetened condensed milk. It was really nice that the cashier told me it was pretty sweet and it tastes a little bit different than standard Matcha because I’m not a big fan of sweet Matcha so she recommended that I get it less sweet, which I did. It’s and open bar so you can see them whisking your matcha too! The drink was amazing, honestly it wasn’t that sweet at all, which is exactly what I wanted. It was very earthy and you can taste the umami come through. There’s lots of seating, and cool old tv’s playing and a video game in the corner you can play with as well. They write your order on a little tag with a doodle on it, which I think is adorable, especially compared to a sticker. Would 100% be back.“

“As a gluten free baker myself, I have to hand it to these guys! They got it going on! Definitely check out the cheddar biscuits!!“

“We highly recommend Baker Market and Deli. The sandwiches are exceptional and we appreciate the atmosphere. It’s a neighborhood hidden gem and we will certainly return. Try out the pastries as well, you will not be disappointed! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Delicious lattes and incredibly friendly people 🖤“

“The blueberry basil latte is INSANELY GOOD!! We were in Denver on a trip for 4 days and had Procession coffee 3 times- we even went out of our way on our way back home to get it one last time. We visited several coffee shops while in Denver and none of them even TOUCHED the quality and flavor of Procession. Easy parking and great vibes in the shop. Cannot recommend them enough!“

“Migas is more than just great coffee—they fill your cup in every sense. Incredible vibes, strong values, and a true sense of community. Such a cool spot to hang out and be part of meaningful events.“

“We are so glad we stopped to try something new! Excellent customer service, we were greeted as soon as we walked in and given an amazing rundown of all the delicious food they have to offer! Baklava was perfect! I can’t remember the name of the meat pastry but it was so good!!“

“Quince Coffee House is an amazing place with a warm and welcoming environment for all patrons. The owners truly care about their craft and this is reflected by their incredible staff. If you are looking for a coffee shop to change up your routine, this is the place for you!“

“This little pearl in RiNo is just about perfect. Real care and craftsmanship on every level. Excellent baked goods, unique specialty items, house-made syrups, high quality coffee and matcha. Even better? The **team** that works here, serving up good conversation, a dash of humor, and carefully made beverages.“

“This place is really nice. Everything is made fresh and so delicious. I had a vegetarian crepe and a caramel latte with oats milk. I really love this place. The Chai tea is amazing and the view at tue outdoor seating, is beautiful. I love this place.“

“Love The Happy Camper Latte“

“Some coffee shops announce themselves the moment you walk in. Dandy Lion does it quietly — a nondescript exterior on 38th Ave in Park Hill that gives way, once you’re through the door, to something genuinely unexpected: hanging swing seats, walls of living plants, morning light filtering through greenery, and the smell of something floral already in the air. Owners Duc Huynh and his wife Dominique moved the concept to Park Hill in 2021 , and what they built here is hard to categorize in the best way. It’s a craft coffee shop and boutique plant store in one — and somehow both sides of that equation feel equally intentional rather than one being an afterthought. The menu leans into lavender lattes, Vietnamese iced coffee, and chai, alongside croissants and breakfast burritos — a lineup that reflects the shop’s AAPI-owned roots and a clear point of view on what coffee can be. The Vietnamese iced coffee in particular earns its reputation: rich, layered, and grounding in a way that a standard cold brew just isn’t. The lavender latte is a regular on people’s standing orders for good reason. The seating situation is worth noting — swing chairs and limited spots mean arriving early on weekends pays off. Street parking is the move. Best for solo mornings, slow catch-ups with a friend, or anyone who wants to leave with a new plant and a drink they’ll be thinking about on the drive home. Open daily 8am–3pm — get there before the rush.“

“I visited today and this place is wonderful I recommend this Cafe . Customer service is amazing. Thank you 🍄“

“I got an iced vanilla oatmilk latte and the tiramisu croissant and both were FANTASTIC. The pastry was not too sweet, filled with a chocolate and custard mix, paired perfectly with the latte. Iced latte was balanced and smooth, it was literally perfect. So good I wanted another! The patio area was super cute and the perfect place to read in the morning while enjoying your coffee. Next time I’m in Denver, I’ll for sure be back!“

“Thank you from the night shift nurses @ Sloan’s Lake Rehab! You have been amazing dropping off coffee for us almost every night!!“

“My moms brought me from Chitown to Denver 1976...where has this fantastic place been all my life? This is the REAL heart and soul of Denver that is gone from so many places I loved so much. Bravo...I'll do anything to support you. Thanks for having a home for us“

“Great food, great atmosphere! We will be back.“

“Espresso Coffee Chocolate Fudge Shakes are outta this world!!“

“Excellent latte and friendly staff. Nice place to have a coffee.“

“Great place for a great cause! Wonderful and cozy place to relax during church night and after a hard day at work or to finish studying/work. Great food and drinks of all kinds! Nice toddler play area and Frontier Park is right next to it right along the Platte River.“

“I like being able to have coffee and a cocktail in one place!“

“Wednesday, March 19, 2025 JULIETS coffee group visited VIVA! Mexico Cafe thanks to Pat's recommendation! It was wonderful. Great Huckleberry Coffee. The toast with beans, meat (ham, steak, or chorizo) melted cheese topped with avocado, chopped tomato, and onion was delicious based on five JULIET reviews. The cafe is beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. There is plenty of seating indoors and outdoors. Street parking on Eudora. Owners: Husband and wife Elisa Garcia and Leonardo Munoz-Corona (Leo/chef). Daniel was our barista. Leo was very gracious, explained the menu items we were not familiar with, and showed us the freshly baked rolls and pastries. Highly recommend it and will be back as a regular.“

“Had a blast at Bodega Denver this Sunday afternoon. Great sandwiches and this joint had a fun funky atmosphere. They also offer vegan options for our half vegan family“

“Spectacular coffee, but the exceptional staff at the Glenarm location make this shop a "MUST" for anyone in the Denver area. Shout out to "Awesome Barista" Melissa and Ryan. (y)“

“I stopped at moonflower this morning to get coffee for a group of people after our original plan fell through. They went out of their way to take care of me and save the day!“

“This was super cute and a great stop before a hike! The coffee was delicious and service was great! Also, bonus points for Glenn and playing fetch while we waited for our coffee! Check the website to see if they're open and you shouldn't have any issues!“

“Nitro is on point! One of our top places to visit.“

“so good“

“Absolutely marvelous! This thoroughly charming little coffee shop is a short walk from Union Station/The Crawford Hotel, (straight East on 17th, on the South side).

I had my usual whipping cream latte, and it was simply exquisite! Absolutely some of the best coffee I've ever had. And the architecture of the building it's in is sublime. The interior is stylish and cheerful, exactly as a coffee shop should be.

3/31/26 Addition: Got the usual again. Completely delicious again.

Talked to the Barista, and was told most of their coffee beans come from an Italian roaster, though one type is purchased directly from the grower! They even had his name.“

“Hosted my book club here this week and it was such an incredible space! Great service by Andrea and Andrew and very easy coordination for group events with Hannah. The drinks are delicious and made with love and the bites were great as well. Will definitely be returning!“

“Great coffee, excellent service and the best cronuts I’ve ever had!“

“Pablo’s was my first “real” coffee shop after I moved to Denver. The place is known for both its setting and location: It’s unique. But it is often busy due to both those reasons. I have had several good conversations with people but also have the occasional eavesdropper, who throws you a look or two. Prices are moderate but the food can be “generic” as this is a more “coffee-focused” shop. But you can still find authentically made scones and whatnot, so not really bad.“

“Great coffee, nice vibe, good.“

“They were prompt and friendly. I ordered an iced chai that had a good amount of ginger!“

“Great place to grab coffee and catch up with a friend. My toddler loved it and made some new toddler friends herself! I wanted to park in the parking lot in the back, but the signs saying authorized vehicles only made me decide to park down the street and walk.“

“Just had a delicious dirty chai and peach almond donut! Even the breakfast burrito was pretty tasty! The staff is always so friendly here and genuinely asks about your day! Highly recommend this cute neighborhood spot!“

“yes. but this happened. This morning, I was asked to leave Corvus Coffee by manager Emma. As I waited for my two sorority sisters for a good old-fashioned catch-up, a young lady was just about to sit in a chair I was saving for Lori Marks-connors and Kyrie Biddle when I asked if she didn't mind sitting one chair over because I was keeping a few seats. Agitated by my kind ask, she laid into me about me "demanding???" Where she sits. I said, "Oh, no, I'm not at all demanding. I'm just wondering if you wouldn't mind sitting one over..." and explained, again, that I was just saving the seats for the ladies - now in line for their coffee. Y'all, when I say how disturbing this young lady was, challenging me even when I asked her to stop going in on me and that I was not going to allow her to ruin my otherwise beautiful morning. She was saying all kinds of crazy things to me as others looked on. Then, because I wouldn't engage in an argument, she decided she'd ask the manager to do something 'about me' at which point you'll see the manager walk up to me on the video to accuse me of being rude to a customer and that, "I'll have to ask you to leave." Stunned, I then tried to explain my side (did you note Emma, the manager, never asked ME what happened but assumed I was the awful person, when THREE different people stepped in to say I was actually not the aggressor and the other woman was. Emma says wait, what?! Who are you vouching me or the woman complaining? and they all shared what they witnessed, and that was being kind to get before she started going in on me. The manager apologized profusely to me when I had to gently school her on next time take both sides of the story before accusing AND asking someone to leave the establishment. I was visibly shaking when she approached me until the very end, shocked, upset, and bewildered by it all, barely able to enjoy my girlfriends for the first 10 minutes - in my head, replaying over and over what had just happened. Needless to say we had a lovely time catching up, but the day was semi-ruined by a stranger.“

“You will not be disappointed here! Everything was delicious! We ordered the chicken street rice, pork street soup, green curry and Kho Soi with fried chicken(my favorite). Food was authentic and the flavors were perfect. Had the mango mojito to drink and mango sticky rice for desert. The family loved everything!“

“We stopped by here by chance as we walked down the street and had an amazing experience. Our barista was patient and super helpful. What an amazing stop on our honeymoon. 100% would recommend.“

“Sapor's my favorite coffee shop in the Front Range. It's an awesome environment to work in and the coffee and staff are both exceptional. Absolutely check this place out if you're in Denver.“

“Drove from Longmont to their Evan’s location. Nice comfortable physical space, friendly and helpful staff and the most delicious espresso (both regular and decaf) I’ve had in years. They also have a broad selection of coffees from around the world that they roast at their other location. If you’re not local they will ship to your location. Excellent coffee, buy it, drink it and be happy.“

“Lovely shop and amazing coffee“

“Great Charcuterie Boards, and an excellent Espresso Martini. Angela Neri, the owner, pays keen attention to detail.“

“Our favorite matcha in Denver!“

“I always go here to study. I would definitely recommend the iced peppermint mocha, it's delicious. They have free wifi and good hours.“

“The customer service is top notch and their coffee is absolutely delicious. We will be back!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This coffee stand is ELITE. Like… stop-what-you’re-doing-and-pull-over elite.
From the first sip, you can tell they know coffee. Perfectly balanced, bold but smooth, zero bitterness, and somehow tastes like it was handcrafted specifically for my soul. The menu? 🔥 Absolute bangers. Whether you’re a classic latte person or love fun specialty drinks, there is no wrong choice here.
And don’t even get me started on the vibes. Super friendly baristas, fast service, and that rare feeling where you leave happier than when you arrived. It’s the kind of place that turns a regular morning into a main character moment.
I will now be planning my routes, mornings, and personality around this coffee stand. If you haven’t tried it yet… fix that immediately. ☕✨“

“Truly spectacular coffee!“

“Hannah and her backup Willa are both friendly and efficient. They both pull good espresso shots with plenty of crema. No need for a to-go cup. Enjoy it right there in a glass cup and enjoy the visual as well as the coffee.
Cold brew and dark roast coffee both are good. Pastry was better before the original owner sold the bakery to a new couple.“
