I had such a wonderful visit to same cafe in Denver recently! The atmosphere was fantastic, and the coffee and food were delicious, as always. What truly made our experience exceptional were Kim and Zayden. They were both incredibly attentive, friendly, and efficient. Kim had a great recommendation for a drink, and Zayden made sure we had everything we needed with a smile. It's clear they're both really good at what they do, and they made our visit truly enjoyable. Thanks, Kim and Zayden, for the fantastic service! We'll definitely be back soon.

Hidden Gem on Colfax - SAME Café is a Must-Visit!
SAME Café is truly one of Denver’s hidden treasures! Nestled on Colfax, this unique café offers not only a delicious daily changing menu but also a beautiful mission. SAME (So All May Eat) Café is all about community, serving organic and locally sourced foods and teas to anyone who walks through their doors. The best part? It’s a pay-what-you-can-afford model, ensuring everyone can enjoy a nourishing meal regardless of their circumstances.
What makes SAME Café so special is the incredible team behind it. Emmy, the volunteer coordinator, and the entire café and outreach team bring so much heart and energy to this space. Their passion for creating a welcoming environment where people can come together over fresh, healthy meals is truly inspiring.
Guests have the opportunity to pay for their meal with time, fresh produce, or financial contributions—whatever they can afford. This creative and inclusive approach fosters a sense of community and gives everyone the chance to be a part of something meaningful.
The food is consistently amazing—fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. Whether you’re stopping by for lunch or attending one of their new evening events serving dinner, you’re guaranteed to have a memorable experience. The café also offers both indoor and outdoor seating, making it the perfect spot to relax and connect.
SAME Café is so much more than just a place to eat; it’s a movement toward kindness, connection, and sustainability. If you’re in Denver, do yourself a favor and stop by. Five stars just don’t seem like enough for this incredible gem!

The food was great! I really enjoyed how I felt like I was eating a salad straight out of a garden and the pizzas were really tasty as well. Did I leave full? No. But I don’t think that was the point here. For me, it was a great introduction to organizations like this one and how they operate as well as a reminder that others may not be as fortunate as I am and that I should always be grateful.
I look forward to supporting this business in the future and letting the other organizations I’m a part of know that this place exists!

This cafe gives back to the community everyday! Through fresh produce donations, the SAME Cafe provides affordable lunches made from fresh produce. Customers can pay what they have, bring produce or volunteer 30 minutes in exchange for lunch... in this way, no one goes hungry, no one is turned away. The SAME Cafe (So All May Eat) is always open to produce or monetary donations and volunteers to propell its goals forward. A nobel cause to ensure those with food insecurity can access food.

Nonprofit restaurant, donation or volunteer time for payment. Every town should have a place like this, ideally several, with kind staff, flexible payment/participation options, and delicious wholesome food. Look on their site to see what's on the menu, which changes every day. Love love love SAME Cafe, bless every person who walks in those doors 💓

So all may eat! Truly an amazing place that sells a whole meal for as little as a dollar. Allowing everyone a chance at a freshly prepared meal. This is the kind of place that deserve to be recognized.9p

Absolutely one of the best restaurants I've eaten at Staff are exceptional
I love the "same cafe" they are really friendly there, and they care about their customers and for the community. You can also volunteer 1/2hr and get a plate of good, which consists of 2 slices of pizza, a decent bowl of soup, and salad. Or say if you don't have any money due to hard times, they accept fresh vegetables as a donation and / or you can donate whatever you can. If you haven't been, I highly recommend a nice friendly environment to chill and have a bite to eat. They are normally open from 11am to 3pm. M-F. Located just off of east Colfax Ave. And Race St. In Denver CO.
Recommended dishes: Spinach & Artichoke Pizza, Pork Belly Soup, Fresh Ingredients Are Crafted into Gourmet Dishes Daily, French Onion Soup, Pizzas
