This place is absolutely awesome. You can get great coffee and drinks, but what’s even better is the upstairs sitting area. Amazing place to Work supercenter located and very cool atmosphere. This could easily become a Denver staple.

This is my favorite cafe in the neighborhood. I frequent multiple times a week. I love the beautiful Evan's School building. The cafe is quaint. Their sandwiches are delicious. I also recommend their pastries (although not recommended later in the evening after they've been sitting out muchnof the day). I finally tried a cocktail a few nights ago and it was mindfully crafted with quality. A little light on the alcohol, but a good balance. Great spot!
