Things to Know

Dazbog Coffee is a locally owned Denver coffee shop at 9th and Downing known for strong cold brew drinks like the Red Eye, but service experiences are inconsistent and the shop has strict policies about workspace use.

The drinks—especially the Red Eye cold brew—are genuinely potent and well-made, but customer service can be dismissive and policies around seating and water access feel unwelcoming to customers who linger.

  • The Red Eye cold brew is exceptionally strong and delivers a serious caffeine kick
  • Blended drinks are well-balanced and not overly sweet, with a clean interior and ample seating
  • Staff have enforced strict rules against customers working on laptops without purchasing, and refused to help with wifi issues
  • Inconsistent and occasionally dismissive service, including a barista who dismissed a regular's 4-year pup cup tradition as 'a Starbucks thing'
  • No free water station and blended drinks use milk-based powder with no dairy-free option
  • Drink sizes run smaller than other coffee shops

I have been going here for about 4 years with my dog for a coffee and a pup cup. I always tip. Today I was informed that they usually don’t do this and that is a Starbucks thing. I said, I’ll give you a dollar tip for the pup cup. He made my coffee and then went to the next customer. I politely asked if he forgot the pup cup and I was informed again that they usually don’t do this and he tossed a dog biscuit on the counter and walked over to make the pup cup(I think). So I said forget it, grabbed my tip and left. I guess I will be going across the street to Starbucks now, cause I’m never going back there. I know I’ve given them over $1,000 of business over 4 years and a canister of whipped topping is probably cents for them. Now I have a sad puppy

5 stars for the layout of the place itself. 0 stars for the service. Walked in at 7am to an empty coffee house. Asked if they had a particular blend of coffee. They didn't. When I sat down to go work on my computer, I was stopped and told that I'm not allowed if I'm not buying something. I'm not sure if I was being profiled as homeless, or if this is just a policy to protect the coffee shop. Either way, I'm a paying customer who would've likely bought a 7 dollar latte at some point, and this place would've had my repeat business. I was forced to buy bottled, plastic water. And this interaction guarantees I will not spend a dime at this place again. The lone other customer who was deciding what she wanted to order, came over to me and said "I think you handled that really great. I almost walked out without buying anything after seeing that, but I'm on a time schedule and I have to meet someone right now, and I want my coffee" Oh and it looks like they have no free water station. The best part? The wifi stopped working for me 5 minutes into an important document, and the owner refused to do anything to help.

First time trying this place. Hubby got the Red Eye and I got a blended chocolate chip drink. The Red eye cold coffee drink is NO JOKe!!! Talk about hair on ya chest! 😆 super strong if that’s what you’re needing at the time. The blended drink was yummy as well. Wasn’t too sweet or strong. Perfect mixture. Only downfall to this place is that the blended drinks can’t be dairy free as the powder base or all of them is made with milk and the drink sizes run a little smaller than were used to. Inside was clean and they had plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The team was nice and fast.
