Stopped here on a whim for an afternoon pick-me-up before heading to work after having lunch nearby. It has a comfy urban chic vibe with a lot of indoor and sun-room seating options. The barista was very helpful as it was my first time in so an extra star for the service here. I was beyond excited to find a Gelato Affogato on the menu as I have yet to find it anywhere but up at my favorite coffee shop in Breck. The espresso itself was delicious but I was very disappointed with the quality of the vanilla "gelato". For a whopping $7.50 the small portion of vanilla "gelato" tasted and looked more like freezer burned Dreyer's vanilla bean ice cream than traditional, creamy, delicious gelato. I'm talking crunchy ice crystals and everything. Very disappointing for a coffee/dessert shop. I was really hoping for the best with this drink and was sorely disappointed. I then opted for a $5 hot Tiramisu Latte which was absolutely delicious. I don't know how they did it but it tasted just like I was drinking a piece of the dessert but not overly sweet and just the right amount of coffee. Be warned - they do float a couple actual lady finger cookies in the drink which I wasn't expecting so I was more than a little confused by the mushy cookie residue when I got to the bottom of my drink. Nonetheless, this drink was a win and I will definitely be ordering it again. Can't wait to go back and try some of their pastries and other food items. I was too full to partake this visit. Can't wait to come back and try more items from the menu. read more

In summary: RECOMMEND Good service and quality. Place has coffee, sandwiches, other mixed drinks, and serve some of the donuts that are next door (Mochinut). I'm not much of a hot coffee drinker, but my wife love sthe Dalgona and Ube lattes (they are quite good)! Prices are reasonable and the place is clean. While I would rather jump out a third story building than willing study in a coffee shop, there's typically a lot of people doing that and they seem like they're getting a lot done. All writing their screenplays, I'm assuming. 4 stars for me because of my personak menu appeal. To me, cold mixed drinks are pretty average. I'll do a cold brew when I'm here, but that's about all I'm excited about. Overall a great place! read more

Excellent service. Great coffee!! Nice and comfortable surroundings. Food looked great although I didn't have any items on that visit.

Nice Korean-style cafe in Aurora. Lots of windows and even outdoor seating thats covered. The shaken espresso is good and comes with oat milk by default. Wi-Fi strength is good. There are not many plugs in the cafe, but I have my own adapter that extends plugs so not a big deal. They also have Perrier and some Mexican sodas. Sandwiches look good, but I already had breakfast. Barista was friendly. Recommend overall. More lattes and ice drinks than pour overs or craft coffee. They should consider adding espresso tonics to the menu because their espresso tastes good. read more

my first time here the two males were friendly but waiting 20 minutes for 2 coffees with only a couple orders ahead of mine and to receive an oat milk latte that looked more like straight milk disappointing somewhat appreciate the offer to remake or add a shot but after waiting so long didnt have time to even listen read more

Love this place AND despite saying that they open at 8am, here I am at 9am, outside, & the doors are locked

So happy I found their ube latte! Couldn't find the flavor anywhere for the longest time

This place is excellent. I wish it was here when I worked just down the street. The coffee is really good and the sandwich I ordered was really tasty. I ordered a Caprese panini and it was legit. The roasted red peppers gave it an amazing flavor. read more

Very tasty coffee and pastries for a reasonable price. The service was fast, friendly, and efficient.

Cute little coffee shop boasting fun coffee options, sandwiches and desserts. Has indoor and covered patio seating. Great spot to do some work and meet with friends. Really enjoyed their Croffle with berries. Also ordered their Denver Toast Sandwich. Hearty size, and was only able to eat a 1/2 of the sandwich. The person that made my mocha was very accommodating, making it less sweet. Definitely worth a second visit IMO. read more

Great food, great drinks, and great service! What more can you ask for! We will definitely be back.

Coffee Story has been a great throwback to my days I living in Korea where cafe culture was the thing. The aesthetics are great and there's a nice vibe at Coffee Story where it's a chilled environment to gather with friends or a place to study. Because of the location, it's also a great dessert option after a meal. In the summer, I ordered the shave ice and it was so good. The size is perfect for a single person instead of the giant bowls that takes six to eight people to finish. The shaved ice was sweet but not too sweet. And the presentation is so pretty. During the summer, the patio is open. Recently, I came in to try the croffle (a croissant waffle) and waffles should be in croissant form. I love the taste of a buttery flaky croissant but top it with whip cream...chefs kisses. read more

Staff and food are amazing. I'm addicted to their breakfast toast. It's also a nice place to come in and get some work or studying done.

Popular spot, quick & friendly service, good drinks!! My husband and I stopped in at Coffee Story on a Saturday at around 1:30. The place was packed with a line nearly out the door! Thankfully, service was quick and we were at the front of the line in no time. I ordered a matcha latte with almond milk & my husband got a caramel latte. Both drinks were delicious! The space is fairly small but we were lucky enough to grab a seat when other people were just leaving. Really cute spot with good vibes all around! I'd love to come back to try their matcha shaved ice - I saw other people get it and that definitely seemed like the move! Highly recommend this spot. read more

I was finally able to make my way in to Coffee Story and it did not disappoint! First, can I share some exciting news?! Mochi Donuts will be opening next door with plans to connect the two shops with a small pathway/door. How perfect for these two spaces to come together! I didn't veer too much from my usual coffee order: Vanilla Latte (I know, such a vanilla order). But it was delicious and perfect! Next time, will definitely order some of the desserts and macarons. I came in with my laptop with plans to work here for a few hours. Unfortunately, the one area that had electric outlets was taken by a big group having a meeting/gathering. But the staff was super helpful! I sat at the "bar"/barstools where they pulled my cord to the other side of their counter to help me get charged up. And once that party left, I was able to find space in the corner by the outlet. My friend met me here and we worked together for an entire afternoon. We saw such diverse customers come through, which is what I love about Aurora! This is such a great location and really excited we have a locally-owned coffee shop here to support! read more

Coffee Story - How cute is it here?! The only thing is that they don't have electric outlets if you need to work... except in this one corner. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

Wonderful coffee in a very busy strip mall. They share an opening with the waffle place next door. Lots of space to hang out, read a Manga (many on site) or do some studying/work. I was going to give one less star as the parking is atrocious but it's not the Coffee story's fault that they are in a busy strip mall with only a few spots and many other popular business. Just beware it may take extra time to park. read more

I was there this morning, October 16, 2025, ordered decaf coffee. I was given a caffeinated coffee instead! I specifically asked if they have DECAF and she said yes. My blood pressure was high all day!!! I will not go back there ever! read more

Great service, cute aesthetics and overall theme but lacking in quality. Ordered a black coffee and caramel macchiato; the latter went in the trash. It was that bad. Way too sugary sweet, lacking rich flavor - it wasn't worth the calories. Coffee runs in my blood so it's a rarity when I find a beverage unpalatable. This is a fast casual cafe with coffee options IMO vs. a coffee shop. I think there is so much potential for this place to thrive. For instance, trim down offerings and find a focal point (e.g., coffee). Also, the place needs a sprucing up. The outdoor patio was so stuffy (enclosed with no circulation or open windows) and downright dirty. Seat cushions were missing. It sends a message to customers and it's not a good one. I won't be back and would not recommend going out of your way to try this place out. read more

Really nice inside but coffee is not worth it at all. Had to throw it away. Can't speak on the dessert those looked good but would not go back for the coffee. Watered down and not great. read more

This is one of my favorite coffee houses in Aurora. I love their ube lattes. The coffee selection offers other varieties, but I can't seem to go beyond ube lattes: the warm drink is soothing and creamy all at the same time. Counter service is quick. I never have to wait long, even when it's crowded. There are pockets of comfortable sitting areas but they are usually full mid-morning because many customers have taken up the space. I live the spit near the book shelves and it makes for a pretty picture. read more

Ok, so I found this place on TikTok a long time ago but am now doing a review . I always tell people to stop by here and try their croffles (first come, first serve) literally an obsession of mine and I haven't been back unfortunately but I'm always craving it. I've had some croffles in CA but nothing compares to coffee story. The ambiance is cute/chill. The employees were great and helpful too since it was my first time there! read more

Their honeycomb bread is absolutely amazing! It was served warm with honey on the side. The bread was deliciously savory with a bit of salt and zing from the sesame seeds. The coffee was perfect, too. They have a multicultural vibe and I'm hoping they'll add middle eastern coffee/tea to the menu as well! read more

I loved coffee there, but I didn't like the food. Overall nice place to study and meetup with friends

The food and drinks were yummy and there are so many places to sit and work with lots of outlets throughout. It's under new ownership and the owners were really nice and checked in with us about how everything was and shared about their plans with a clear passion for the business. It's also not noisy so it makes it a really great go-to spot for being productive while enjoying some good coffee, boba, and pastries. Definitely recommend! read more

I came here to try the Croffle. It's a mix between and waffle and a croissant. It had chocolate shavings, cream, and basil. It was very good! It has the flaky layers on the inside and the right texture. Would definitely come back to try another flavor or one of their coffees. The shop was cute and quiet. A lot of people were working on their laptops and they have an outdoor patio as well. read more

ATTENTION OWNERS please give that poor sweet employee help. Sunday morning alone! She can't multitask fast enough to deal with customers take orders make orders with 10 people in line. You're gonna burn her out! Love this place and I wish I knew her name because every time I'm in there she is great. read more

This place is cute! I always wanted to try what a Korean Cafe had to offer. I got the Ube Matcha: it was good! Not too sweet just how I like it. But the matcha flavor wasn't that strong, ube is kind of a strong flavor so I get it. I also had the teriyaki pannini: it was light and good flavor.kind of expensive for my taste but I guess it's kind of worth it with the amount of chicken and avocado you get. Service was good. Git the food and drinks out in a timely manner, although I didn't interact with the employees much. Overall: it's a nice place to chill and talk with a couple friends or family. It's quiet and mochinut is connected to it so you can grab a mochi donut or try their croffles! read more

I love this coffee shop. It feels so cozy and clean. My go to order is the matcha latte with almond milk, yum they have updated the seating so there are more chairs available and also outdoor seating. There are lunch options now too! Definitely a great place to read and unwind. read more

Cute coffee shop with delicious desserts! I love the parfait desserts that they have with flavors like matcha and black sesame! The store is clean and and the staff are attentive and quick. I recommend to anyone in the area looking to try a cafe with yummy Asian inspired desserts.

Come here for the croiffel- a blend between a croissant and a waffle! Baked fresh daily, they are sure to run out early morning. When we got there around 10am on a Sunday, only the grape and banana choices were left. We opted for the banana croiffel and it was quite good! The croiffel is topped with a sweet whipped cream that is made in house and the fruit of your choosing. We also had a sweet potato latte. FYI: Although we liked the drink, it wasn't as novel as we had expected as it tastes like a warm taro milk tea. read more

This was our first visit to Coffee Story and I have to say we were impressed by the cozy atmosphere. There's a lot of comfy seating both indoors and outside. The coffee shop has lots of snacks, including baked goods and sandwiches, but it'd be nice to see more allergy friendly options. My husband enjoyed his white chocolate mocha and I liked my flat white with almond milk. The drinks were very good, although they took a long time to be made. read more

Grabbed this while waiting for food next door at mochinut. The lychee ade was pretty good for $5. It is basically sparking water with lychee syrup and a mint leaf on top. It wasn't what I was expecting when I ordered as the sparkling water/soda threw me off at first but I was pleasantly surprised. It would be great if they had lychee in it as well but that's okay. My coworker ordered the chai latte and said it was kinda bland which is why I docked a star. I would love to come and try some of their desserts on display in the future! read more

Cute little cafe with bakery goodies, dessert drinks and coffee! It's next door to Mochinut. We tried the mango and strawberry shaved iced desserts. It was a nice blend with real fruits, not too sweet. I'd like to return to try their bakery. It's a nice cafe to sit and get some work done. read more

Ok I was definitely influenced by Denver Food Scene on insta and knew next Time I was in the area I was absolutely stopping in to coffee story. The sad part is Alfie used to live almost right across the street but alas now we are practically in Thornton :-/ Anyways as I think wistfully back of Better location days I realize I need to get back on track here. Anyways we had made plans to wash the dogs today and as our dog was is not terribly far from here I decided to make a day of it and take them to the dog park and finally pop in here. I also knew because I am not in the area often I not only would be ordering a shaved ice but also a coffee AND probably some macarons. No shame my friends I purposefully did not eat breakfast for this lol. Anyways the decor is adorable, there's quite a bit of space so people can distance and what not and still enjoy their coffees. They also have plants everywhere which of course I loved. And the chairs and table were trendy and cute. Honestly If Alfie still lived right by here I would probably come here to work and drink awesome coffees. Sad. The coffee was great, I got the tiramisu latte with coconut milk. It honestly was a great / perfect level of sweetness. I didn't think it was overpowering at all and really enjoyed it. It was also served with a cute cookie thing which made for great photos of course. Now I am embarrassed to say I haven't really ever had a proper shaved ice, I know terribly embarrassing I know. But that changed today as I ordered the mango shaved Ice and oh my. It was great. I thought about bringing it to Alfie (this was before I tried it) but after I took a few bites I knew he would be on his own. It's sooo sooo good with fresh mango, some kind of sauce, and even little pieces of I think cheesecake? Amazing. I will admit I have yet to try the macarons yet...because well I'm sure you can see I've had about all the Sweets ans treats I need today BUT they are beautiful and if the other two items I did try are any indication they are going to be fantastic...there is little doubt in my mind. I can't wait to come back and try all the other flavors or shaved ice and get more coffee! read more

I come here almost every day to get an iced coffee, sometimes a hot coffee, and possibly a little treat and I never leave disappointed! The staff are lovely here and they even offer a little board with their own favorite drinks on it to try if you wanna get away from your usual coffee order. My favorite is the iced Americano but I must try the maple latte with oat milk next time! Can't wait to come in again! read more

When I first came to Coffee Story, the place was relatively new. My friends and I came for shaved ice. The cashier was very friendly and informative of their menu. The place was relatively empty with some people lounging around. We got the Strawberry Shaved Ice and Black Sesame Shaved Ice and had it on the patio outside. Overall, the shaved ice was really sweet. There were many layers of different things to eat throughout the shaved ice and definitely kept it flavorful. One shaved ice was more than one person- I could say you could even share it among two people. I highly recommend to get their shaved ice for a hot day! read more

I was drawn to Coffee Story for their croffles but would come back for their Korean toast. Their croffles are tasty but they get dense after awhile. I got the Seoul toast and it was the perfect combination of sweet and savory. Although cabbage might be a bit strange on toast, it is pretty normal in Asian fusion and gave a much needed fresh crunch as a contrast to the eggs. I definitely want to come back to try their other toasts, which would be a great pre-hike breakfast! read more
