50 Best Cafes near Thornton

“I used to really like Petes food and service but every time I go by a parking lot is full one time I was watching and they were saving the spots in front of the front door for the people that worked there and for Pete himself that’s a good way to put yourself out of business“

“Amazing food and amazing people.“

“In town for business, never been here before so I thought I’d give it a try. I wasn’t sure what to get and had alot of questions. The lady that works there, Tami, was so nice, warm, and welcoming! Tami took the time to go over different options and what they each come with. She knew what she was talking about! With Tami’s help, I decided on the turkey bacon avocado sandwich with a cup of broccoli cheddar soup! I’m so glad I stopped here! I’ll definitely be back!! Thanks Tami! I’m assuming you are the manager but if not, I hope the right person sees this! It’s so nice to be treated like a customer!!“

“The kids and I got drinks and some fries, the girl made all of our drinks really good. I got a house coffee and she made it exactly the way I like it, we also got the strawberry cheesecake with boba and camo Thai with boba and both were really good!!!! Definitely worth the price as well bc portions are big!!! The service was really good, will recommend and come back for sure.“

“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.“

“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!“

“This is seriously the BEST waffle I’ve ever had in my entire life!!!! Gluten free and packed full of protein! I’m so glad I found this little gem!!!“

“Their french toast taste like Christmas morning at grandma's house. Their bacon is crispy and their customer service is superb. I want to try the rest of their menu. But with how big the portions are, it take me a few dozen times before I could try them all. I guess I'll have to come back 🤷‍♀️“

“I waited here while my car was being serviced, really enjoyed my time at this cafe. There is a variety of seating available, you can come with a group or just one friend. The counter is self serve so you don’t have to wait for someone to take your order. The breakfast burrito was quite delightful, came with a slice of watermelon as well. Very kind staff members were available and very helpful. Good baklava as well.“

“I take food home the Hamburgers out of this world. All his Breakfast entries are out this World. All the people who regularly go there are great.“

“It's like an Apple store served matcha. Very modern vibe, no indoor seating, and no menu personalizations. However, the drinks (hojicha with vanilla creme and lime blueberry fresca) were delicious. Not sure if they were worth $9+ each, but would recommend this spot if you're in the mood to splurge on a fun drink.“

“A favorite for our whole family. We have used Breadwinners Catering for years and when cafe opened it became the perfect spot for business lunches, family brunch and now dinner. With CoVid, finding a restaurant with outdoor seating and spacious table separation is difficult. They have 2 outdoor patios and indoor seating is adjusted for our safety.“

“Our favorite matcha in Denver!“

“I absolutely love this place! Never a disappointment! They have vegan and gluten free options!! The lemon bars are the best around!!! Stuffed croissants are amazing!“

“Americano Coffee is spot on, sweet bread pastries are great, decore is a bit industrial but fits the setting, walk up service is great but parking is a bit slim due to a small lot and busy surrounding roads, over all a great place to stop and grab a cup and sweets!
Priced appropriately.“

“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!“

“Bright and airy atmosphere, comfortable seating, and a great place to have a delicious coffee or a crazy good pastry.

My favorite place on the Anschutz campus.

Every purchase goes towards helping the unhoused.

Kind of a hidden location, but the best kept secret on the Campus.“

“Amazing food, great staff quick delivery. This food is authentic!! These guys pick up where the others leave off!!! We’ve ordered takeout around Arvada for years and finally decided. This is the best place closest to our house. Don’t miss out. Everything is good. If you’re lucky the owner of the store will deliver it to you.“

“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.“

“I saw this place on a TikTok and knew I had to come check it out. It’s even cuter in person! This place is pretty big, and there’s so many events they had advertised that they do (definitely coming back for some of these!!). Food and drinks were incredible, I love the Chai latte (I got it hot with oat milk and a double shot !). Chai is my all time favorite, so I’m pretty picky and this one was amazing. The staff was so cool, the barista with the green hair (I’m sorry I’m so bad with names lol) was SO sweet and kind. Literally above and beyond with the service. Highly highly recommend coming here! I will absolutely be back!“

“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.“

“I recently used this professional business for a garage door repair, and they did an excellent job. Their garage door replacement was flawless, and they promptly fixed a broken spring. I highly recommend their general repair & installation services.“

“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!!! ☕️ 🤘❤️“

“great food awesome view an lovely atmosphere“

“The DNVR team was amazing! We hired them to provide coffee and tea catering for 80 guests at our two-day event, and they more than delivered. Everything was ready and set-up on time for our guests to enjoy, and refreshed in a timely manner. Highly recommended, and we'll book with them again.“
