“I walked from Windsor Gardens senior complex and found the most delightful French patisserie (my words!), where regulars appreciate the amazing coffees (I'm Americano since Italy), hand stuffed Almond Croissant and lovely conversation. As I age, I discover it is the quiet, slow paced places that appreciate the most.
Enjoy“

“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!“

“As an out-of-town visitor, this is one of the must -visit cafes in Denver. Cozy, comfy and most importantly the menu is awesome.
The Blue Monday is legit delicious and not overpowering, also got to try a super refreshing Coffee Sour. Pourovers available as well, terrific. That was a lot of caffeine lol.
The owner, Steven, is easy-going and a lot fun to talk to. Sports knowledge also legit. Def check this place out!“

“Our favorite matcha in Denver!“

“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.“

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

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

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

“Reminiscent of France, such a cool place neauvau, fast paced, laid back , make sure to have an authentic croissant, and a cuppa, also, buy a pound of coffee to ha e on hand as a gift, more appropriate than wine!
Share the experience and get a couple gift cards.“

“Love it!! Every bite had my eyes rolling 😂🖤Will be back soon to visit!“

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

“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.“

“Great coffee, nice vibe, good.“

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

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

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

“Favorite coffee shop on Tennyson! I love their coffee and pastry options along with the extra friendly staff. I especially like that they use Sweet Bloom beans for their coffee.
Highly recommend visiting this shop when you’re in the neighborhood!“

“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.“

“We had a great time at BearLeek. We booked at the chefs counter so had a fabulous view of the kitchen. All the staff were so lovely and made great recommendations. The food was so delicious and so were the cocktails and mocktails we had. We will def be back on our next trip to Denver.“

“Do not miss this small gem near downtown Denver! Whether your knowledge of tea is extensive or very basic, the staff seems happy to help you find a brew you'll like. I enjoyed my first matcha, alongside an absolutely delightful salmon sandwich. Allow some time to browse the eclectic book selection, and just enjoy the vibe.“

“Love, love, love it here! The tea selection is out of control. They’re so super friendly and are more than happy to let you smell the teas, and will educate you and make recommendations. Make a reservation and come for tea – it’s all you can drink, as many teas as you want to try, for the length of your reservation. The food is tasty, the service is really chill and not pretentious… just a really laid back vibe. I guess I could keep going on and singing their praises but… just come check it out. This place is great.“

“I’m visiting Denver from Sarasota Florida and I’m so glad that I found this eclectic coffee shop. The decor, staff and coffee are amazing! It’ll be might go to spot whenever I’m in Denver!“

“I'm celiac so didn't try the pastries, but the seasonal latte I had today was very solid. It wasn't overly sweet. Prices were very reasonable. No upcharge for alternative milks which is very nice, and their glass jar program is awesome (that's actually what inspired me to check them out to begin with). The atmosphere is pleasant as well. What really stuck with me most, though, was the service. As a barista let me just say, it can take a lot to stay upbeat and friendly and attentive towards customers during a rush at any time of the day. I struggle with that sometimes so I notice when others go above and beyond like that. The workers here are phenomenal. Make sure you tip the lovely baristas here if you decide to stop by. It's a very welcoming cafe. 💝“

“Simply The Best Pie anywhere!“

“laid back atmosphere. Hard to believe that I used to shop at Cinderella City so long ago!“

“I’ve been a regular here for four years and it’s my favorite place. Love the coffee, tea, and goodies, but particularly love the baristas and the local community. It’s really become a community hub for connection that I look forward to visiting every week. Plus the outdoor patio is the best in the city.“

“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 always have great service when here, the staff is amazing. the packaging not so much. when we buy individual glazed we are fine. decided to buy a voodoo dozen for the kids. there was one liner in the whole box. so the grape ape seemed to melt and spread over everything. I trashed half a box I purchased for over$30 because no one would eat them. I was going to drive back out there with the box but it's just out of the way“

“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!“

“I always get coffee here and it never misses. Staff are great and it’s a great location. Wouldn’t choose this spot for breakfast sandos just purely because I don’t like the like pale egg patty style of egg. It was still good for what it is“

“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.“
