I love this place. I stayed here while my grandmother was in the hospital down the street. I am autistic, and I am not a big fan of being in public settings. But me and my mom found this place, and it's amazing. Yesterday, I drew the kind people working, and left it for them. Today, I came back, like we have for the past few days. The kind man offered me any item I wanted on the house, because they loved the drawings I did. I imagined they threw the drawings away, but to think they actually cared a lot about it made my week. Maybe even my month. A huge thank you to everyone who works here for being extremely kind and understanding. You gave me a place to be, somewhere I don't need to worry. Thank you. Now, for an actual review, the food here is very nice. All I really ate were the avocado toasts because that's all I'm familiar with, but of the two I tried, the supreme queen toast is the best. For service, the people here are very kind and attentive. Very respectful. And helpful, they will not make you feel stupid for having questions or needing a smaller menu (I have very bad vision for a 15 year old...). The ambiance is very nice. People are doing whatever they want or need, and don't care about you. Which is a good thing, especially for people who don't like loud or overwhelming spaces. Being open 24/7 is also very wonderful. Sometimes we're up late, after a day of forgetting to eat or just not having to the time to, having a place to eat and hang out is nice. It's also very cold, which is good because it's been very hot outside. Overall, this place is amazing. And I'm very sad to be leaving this area soon, but I hope I can come back again one day. I want everyone working to know how wonderful my experience was, and how much your kindness meant to me. read more

Stopped by lil coffea shop in Denver while waiting for a flight and had a pretty disappointing experience. I ordered an espresso and planned to just sit for a bit -- ended up being there for about an hour. Out of nowhere, I felt like I was being pushed out. They started cleaning around me even though it's advertised as a 24/7 spot, and I was literally the only person there. It just felt unnecessary and uncomfortable. On top of that, they even charged me for water, which caught me off guard. Overall, the vibe didn't feel very welcoming. Maybe I just caught them at a weird time, but between the service and how rushed I felt to leave, it wasn't a great experience. read more

I had just finished a doctor appointment nearby and needed a little pick me up. This spot was within walking distance. I liked their cozy environment and the staff was kind. I was hunting for pastries and in a more traditional French pastry kind of way so that was my own fault for craving what they didn't offer so I grabbed a scone. Sadly it wasn't my favorite scone as it was a little on the dry side but that won't stop me from trying them again in the future read more

Lil Coffea was my 4th coffee house on my lil tour today and by the time, I was ready for something different. So I went with a sandwich and lemonade. LCS has alot of choices! Great for breakfast and lunch and had plenty of seating both inside and out. It's a repurposed house which I love and a great location. There's a small parking lot behind and street parking. read more

I really like this coffee shop. The vibe is perfect for kicking it with friends, relaxing with a good book, or studying for a test. Their coffee is delicious and rich enough to satisfy any coffee snobs. The desserts are always on point. The last time I visited I tried on of their curry bowls, it was very satisfying. read more

This one is one of my friends favorite places to work and study because they are open 24/7! It is a cute little spot and they have EVERYTHING here, like coffee, tea, alcohol, and food. I came in around 3:15 pm on a Tuesday and it was pretty empty but it started filling up around 4:00 pm. The service was exceptional and I definitely will be coming back if I ever need a spot to get work done late at night. read more

lil Coffea Shop is a great place to go in Denver for late night work or studying. There are plenty of tables and outlets, and they're open 24/7! I stayed until 3 AM the other day and still felt welcome and safe. The coffee is good and standard, and the food, at least the pastries, seem to be bought from Costco? Honestly though, for a 24 hour coffee shop, it's still delicious and warm, so I can't complain. I definitely recommend this place for hanging out or getting in some grind time. read more

I ordeded a kiki breakfast sandwich, which is supposed to be a "fluffy" Belgian waffle sandwich with eggs cheese and bacon. What i got was the hardest belgian waffle ive ever seen as the top "bun" and the end piece from a loaf of white bread as the bottom bun. The Belgian waffle was so hard and old it crumbled into dust as i ate it and i gave up 25% of the way through. read more

The baristas are too busy, flirting with male customers while there's only one barista actually doing all of the hard work the order I was there to pick up was already ready, but I had to wait for the other two barista to get done, flirting with the guy standing in front of me waiting for his coffee that the other barista, who is the only one who actually working and doing their job was making, so I was very annoyed to have to sit there and wait for them to finish flirting when they should've been doing their jobs, making sure they're greeting every customer and being attentive to completing their tasks not trying to see who's pants they can get down. It was disgusting and very unprofessional. read more

I have this fantasy of working all day from a comfy couch in a cozy coffee shop. Alas, my office life says otherwise. So instead, I'll settle for weekend visits while scrolling tik tok, and drinking a good iced latte. Luckily, I've found the perfect spot for it: Lil Coffee Shop! I visited their Downing St. location and it was great! Owned by the team behind Little India so you know the food is amazing), they're open 24/7 and even deliver. Late-night fast food? Consider it canceled. The vibe here is great: cozy couches, amazing coffee, and a staff that knows their regulars by name. I spent two hours here, and it's clear they've built a great relationship with the neighborhood. I'm already planning my return to work through their extensive menu! What I ordered: * Breakfast pizza * Supreme Queen avocado toast * Ham, egg & cheese croissant * Egg, cheese & potato breakfast burrito * Spicy chickpea avocado toast * Loaded hash browns * BBL-T bagel sandwich * Mimosas, Bloody Mary, Cookie Butter Latte, and Cappuccino Best bites: Everything was amazing, but a few dishes stood out: * Spicy chickpea avocado toast: Perfectly flavored with spicy masala and a citrusy avocado mash. I don't even love chickpeas but I think I do now! * Breakfast burrito: Smothered to perfectly with green chili! Not soggy which is an automatic win for me. * Breakfast pizza: Bacon, sausage, green chili, egg. It made me realize how much more breakfast pizzas I should be eating read more

This place has it ALL! My favorite coffee shop/work from home spot! First- great coffee with lots of different options- you can even order a mimosa or boozy coffee if that's what you're feeling! The service is always fast and everyone here is pleasant. There are plenty of people working, so no crazy back up on orders. Another reason this is my favorite spot- they have a full menu. Breakfast, lunch, or dinner! From baked goods to pizza to sandwiches and salads. They have a lil of everything and anything I have ordered is well made and thoughtfully plated- oh and AFFORDABLE!! The chicken Tikka salad featured below is like 8.00. Amazing! If you have not already, you gotta come check out the amazing coffee, food, and vibes at lol coffea shop good people, good music, good food! read more

Can't believe this coffee shop is open 24 hours! Great spot for some late night work. Staff is very friendly.

Small spot with good coffee and indoor/outdoor seating options. Good option for those near Colorado

Very friendly staff and yummy holiday-inspired drinks. My recommendation right now is to try their jambalaya soup!

I've been here a few different times and the first two times were enjoyable, but this last one fell flat. First and foremost, it's really confusing as to what this place is going for anymore, coffee shop, full blown restaurant, bar, and selling liquor and ice cream pints? It seems like they're trying to a quirky catch all but it's honestly not working. It's really chaotic and aesthetically overwhelming walking in, finding the coffee/tea on the menu screens was challenging and there's so much on there the font it almost impossible to read. We got two winter specials - the peppermint bark late and the Black Forest late, and both tasted like coffee with milk and sugar. Neither one had their promises flavors of peppermint or cherry, so that was a major let down. Also, of note, the cupcakes in the pastry case are from Sam's Club and the muffins are from Costco?? read more

A coffee shop with great savories, how good can it get? This was Keith's Coffee but is now lil Coffea Shop with an "a" at the end. How creative is that! We stopped by here for a quick something to eat with a few beverages on this beautiful Sunday high noon. Due to its location (near DU), there were some young adults with their laptops studying for whatever they were working on. The background music was at the right volume where people weren't so distracted by it. And those who were there to just mingle, they were respectful by engaging in their chitchats etc. We were impressed with the Masala Calzone. They serve it in a large plate. Not a bad price ($15) for this portion. My daughter really enjoyed her Apple Cider Chai. My usual, doppio, tasted good, too. The service was good; I couldn't think of anything negative to say about this quaint shop that's hidden from the main/busy street. It sure is a nice place to chill/relax if you're in a mood for a little sit down. read more

Super disappointed after going to this location for years. Last week, I ordered my usual frozen vanilla crème, and it was made terribly. There was no vanilla bean in it, and it was full of ice chunks. This week my wife picked up the drink for me and it was even worse. It was basically heavy whipping crème with no flavor and no complete foam. When I grabbed the cup, it weighed nothing. I actually went back to the place and before I even finished one sentence complaining about the drink, the lady at the counter states she was sorry, she had to use vanilla syrup since they were out of the vanilla powder. I guess that's why it had no flavor, but then I talked about it being complete foam and not a drink at all and she once again apologized and said they have a new blender they are getting used to. None of this was stated before they sold the drink, no refund was offered, so I left the drink on the counter and told them they could have it. Won't be supporting this place any time soon. read more

What a great spot! Stumbled in here unplanned for a latte and also left with samosas and a brownie! The samosas and latte were delicious. I haven't had the brownie yet but I bet it's great! The owner was in, and he was so kind. Super impressed with the customer service I received from him, and the latte and samosas. Will definitely be back!! read more

The one star review is solely for the coffee and staff. just went in to order 2 cups of coffee, but was surprised when nobody could tell me anything about what I was ordering. Where is the coffee from, where is the coffee sourced, what type of roast is it? Unfortunately, none of the staff know any information about the coffee. The young lady finally with obvious frustration went and got me a bag of coffee for me to read. only information on it was the brand name really, such a shame. The staff definitely did not seem happy. Overall, the shop was really cool inside, the sourced out pastries looked really awesome, but unfortunately not a coffee place. read more

Fun coffee shop for meeting friends and chatting or possibly for doing work, though the turnover of people could be distracting. Comfortable seating options and lots of flavor options for coffee. read more

Came in for my first visit and was pleasantly surprised at the awesomeness of the establishment. Plenty of lovely artwork and decor. Wonderful vibe inside. Excellent customer service.

Lil Coffea is a cute coffee shop in walking distance from Porter Hospital. I went late in the afternoon closer to when they closed and it was pretty empty and they were preparing to close towards the end of my visit. It took a little bit to get my tea ordered but once I did it was lovely and I love that they have a variety of iced teas to choose from too. As someone who is avoiding caffeine it's always nice to have some other options. They also sell outrageous baking bread so they also have some vegan and allergen friendly snack options in their bakery case. Overall it's a nice coffee shop and convenient to visit with a friend who worked at Porter. It's right across from Denver Beer Co so there are a variety of options in the area to go from point A to point B too. I would absolutely come back in the future! read more

Decided to have brunch here this Sunday morning, and it was the best decision! Got a decaf iced strawberry rose latte and an avocado toast. My date got a quesadilla.

Adorable cafe. All the drinks one would expect, including seasonal favorites like pumpkin spice latte. Cute outdoor area on nice days. I didn't try the pastries but they look great. "Independent and local...like you." Denver has a rich cafe culture. On my trip there, I tried a few different ones but this one stood out for its location and vibe. It's also a great spot if you're working remotely. I saw a lot of people both inside and outside typing away on laptops. It's quiet enough that you could easily concentrate and have a meeting here. In terms of prices, I thought it was very fair and competitive. I never mind paying more when I'm at a local, independent business. read more

I love me some good coffee, and this place has it. They recently switched to Queen City Coffee, which is my favorite at the moment. Everyone that has had a chance of tasting this coffee, loves the balance and flavor of it. They typically have light and dark roast brewing for drip, and of course they have an extensive coffee menu with the usual suspects. I love the chill ambiance here with plenty of room inside and an awesome patio with old trees providing shade. This place is also handicap friendly with a ramp from the street to the front entry. Service was super friendly and fast. They take Apple Pay, which is great for speedy checkout. Parking is also pretty easy, with parking available on the street and in their own parking lot with its entry located to the left of the building. Definitely a place to come to chill or get some work done with support of caffeine. read more
