So happy that coffee at Novel Strand is back! The coffee is smooth and drinkable, and the savory breakfast pastries are to die for. The best thing about NS is the staff: always so kind, generous, and personable. One of my favorite places in Denver. Be sure to stop by!

So happy this opened and is available for the neighborhood again! Nothing like stopping on the way to work, or taking a walk to 1st and Cherokee on a weekend morning for some great coffee. The menu is simple, but with all of the items any coffee lover is looking for. Fresh pastries, and I particularly am loving their use of Harbinger Roasters as their beans source, top notch! Definitely worth the stop in Baker. As a bonus, you can have coffee and beer on weekends!

Great coffee and friendly barista very knowledgeable serving up delicious espresso. They use color roasters out of eagle Colorado. Local shop with locally sourced top tier products. Pastries are delicious too! Great space to sit and work for the morning.

Stopped for coffee and to catch up on a few emails. Pleasant service. I liked the latte - seems to be a light-ish roast espresso (a bit sour vs roasty), good if that’s your jam. The seasonal salted maple syrup was really good - unusual. Mellow vibe but a steady stream of neighborhood types, seems very popular. Would be happy to hang for beers sometime.
