It was incredibly smooth, not bitter at all, with subtle hints of citrus. My family and I ordered several different drinks, and every one of them was excellent. Troy, the owner, was incredibly friendly and took the time to explain the coffee, how his wife sources the beans, and what makes each one unique. I really appreciated their passion and enthusiasm for coffee. I highly recommend stopping by if you're looking for exceptional coffee and a welcoming atmosphere!

It was our first time in and Jess gave us a full rundown of the menu while Luke had us smell a few beans before picking deciding on a pour over, tasted almost like a floral tea with coffee on the back end.

Bright space, great energy, and a staff that genuinely seemed excited about what they do.

Blue Sparrow Coffee is easily one of the best coffee spots in the city. I got the hot caramel latte…read morewith oat milk, made with their Headliner espresso. The espresso was dialed in perfectly, not too bitter and not too light. I couldn't really taste the caramel, but the latte itself was still delicious. 8.7/10.

I like their attention to international coffee culture, including flat whites and "long blacks." I appreciate that they have oat milk placed out for customers (not just cow's milk). The service is usually friendly enough. On my most recent visit I was hungry and picked up a very tempting gluten-friendly lemon poppy seed cake, but against my better judgment, since it was sitting in the cake cabinet alongside everything else (why do coffee shops still do this?). Unfortunately, I paid for that decision and was sick for three days afterwards. Blue Sparrow, please consider keeping gluten-free items clearly separated, it would make a big difference.

They are so hardworking here with how busy they are, but consequently food and drink can take awhile. They serve Bonfire Burritos (heated up) which is nifty. The coffee itself is alright.

There's plenty of comfy seating to lounge on, as well as a bartop for folks to sit on. This place operates as a cafe and light brunch place in the mornings, and a dim, moody vibe with a full bar in the evenings. All the workers here are really nice and approachable. When coming in, there are menus by the front door. When I went, it was around 11am on a Sunday, so it was pretty crowded. They have a food pop-up in the back patio that rotates between vendors, to my understanding. The back seating area is covered and has two space heaters nearby. Lots of fun things to choose from on the menu. I got an Irish Coffee, would highly recommend!

They also have a great breakfast all day menu and some solid lunch options too. When I went they had an absolutely bomb Birria grilled cheese, but I unfortunately don't think it's a regular item.

3-star might justify based on everything I experienced at this coffee shop today…read more Its inconspicuous existence (especially the secondary door that is facing Larimer) is quite intriguing. Utilizing the existing brick walls, the interior layout is creative with all sorts of art. Their location is their luckiest part as it consistently draws steady footprints. It thus gets packed in a few seconds. It offers (firstly) coffee based drinks. It does have a kitchen where they make more than just pastries and the like. It's definitely more than a simple coffee shop for sure. Service, however, was quite basic. The lady upfront smiled but hesitantly. She wasn't rude but I simply didn't feel welcome. Hence describing their current customer service system or skills as "good" might fuel their egos (wow, did I really say that?? LOL!!) My quad latte was decent/good. I could have done less espresso shots as it sure was strong or too strong (this wasn't their fault; it was mine.) Yes, in conclusion, the shop can and should refine its service (upping it one more level might draw solid raves from the people). Well. I'm not that distraught by any means so in due time, I might utilize them in the future.

It was packed, every table, but one was full, and we were lucky enough to snag that. Even with a full house, the place was very quiet, people respected the "wfh coffee shop" culture, and did not seem to be talking loudly or taking meetings. The drinks were great, not too fancy, but my Matcha was yummy. We also tried a gluten-free zucchini bread and a lemon pound cake which really hit the spot. Prices are pretty fair, and I had no issue finding street parking even on Broadway, although I had a busier time of day, I can imagine it might be more difficult. I love that this place was open later and I would definitely come back I know people have different remarks about the Wi-Fi, the staff gave us extra Wi-Fi codes in case we ran out, yes, there is a timer and you have to make a purchase, but they are very chill about it and will give you a new code if you run out
