"For me, cafes have long represented more than just necessary fuel to start the day. They are a place to relax, create, and connect, whether that be to yourself, the local environment, or friends. As a food scientist and professional baker who's worked as a barista, good coffee and pastries are also undoubtedly important - don't get me wrong. The best cafes not only invite you in; they invite you to stay."
"However, in time and mostly through word-of-mouth recommendations, I found that Denver has some of the best local cafes to steal your heart and help you feel at home, no matter if you live in the Mile High City or are just passing through. Learning my local cafe scene was a slow-burn, but one I eventually came to love. Here's my list of five go-to spots I can now whole-heartedly recommend."
Denver's cafe scene includes welcoming local cafes that offer community-focused atmospheres, quality coffee and pastries, and opportunities to relax, create, and connect. Convivo Cafe in the Tennyson Street neighborhood is a bilingual, women-owned space inspired by the Guatemalan concept of 'convivo' that opened in 2022. Convivo features airy interiors, local art, twinkle lights, Guatemalan-inspired drinks and treats such as cafe con leche and champurrada, and community programming including educational coffee presentations and professional meetups. Word-of-mouth played a significant role in uncovering notable neighborhood cafes, and exploring these third-spaces can help people feel at home in Denver.
