Nice bakery. I usually always go for an almond croissant but decided to switch it up and went for their Nutella Croissant - it was very good, flaky, did take me about 1/3 way through to get to the Nutella! My husband had the ham and cheese croissant which they warmed up however not as good as the one we got in Monterey, CA at a French patisserie there. Cute location, very hidden. A little expensive but everywhere is now!

I FINALLY got to visit this bakery while it was open on a Saturday morning- truly a treat! I got the pop tart and the seasonal croissant- Irish cream for St Patty's day. Both were very tasty. The croissant layers- wooooo, soooo many layers and soooo crispy!

Superrrrr friendly employee and such a cute shop. We stopped by later in the day and they still had a variety of pastries available. I bought a banana loaf and my cousin bought a bob tart. Both were really good and tasted fresh. The inside is super cute and cozy.

Came here on a Sunday morning and my goodness! The baked goods were such a hit! Located beautifully at the end of the Dairy Block, this bakery is a GEM! I ordered a Cubano (savory ham croissant) for me and my buddies and we absolutely loved it! I also ordered a sweet pastry for my friend: the Blackberry Sage croissant. It was phenomenal! So many good vibes in this place! We were helped by Abby, who's an angel! Really looking forward to coming back!

Passionfruit Croissant

We were exploring the Dairy Block Alley one night and stumbled across the bakery. Long closed for the day, they did have a sign on the door that said they were "sold out." So naturally, we had to look them up! Great reviews meant we needed to stop by for breakfast. Such a great variety of pastries to choose from that it was hard to pick. Ended up getting one of each - sweet and savory. Their ham and cheese croissant was DELISH - the croissant was flaky and the ham and cheese was the perfect compliment to this breakfast bread. And their passionfruit croissant was DIVINE - just the right amount of sweet and stuffed with a passionfruit custard. Everyone here was so incredibly friendly and kind - made the experience that much better. Can't wait to one day return to try more of their delicious treats.

Anytime I go on a trip I'm always searching for the best bakeries! This place was no exception... It was a little walk from our hotel, which was perfect because I planned on eating my weight in delicious sugary carbs! The location is a little bit hidden... We almost missed it, but I kind of think that's the point. We walked into the tiny shop and were overwhelmed with all of the amazing pastry options! The shop is really cute, we were greeted warmly, and served promptly. We came for a cookie... But left with much more! we pretty much tried one of everything in the shop and we were equally impressed with everything! Can't wait to come back to Denver to eat it all again!

Lovely little bakery in the alley behind the Dairy Block. It has a pretty small footprint with a small table inside and one outside, but there's magic in that oven! We learned the main baker is from Austria and brings the techniques he learned in the old country here! The dude knows what he's doing - we tried a pan de chocolat and grabbed some banana bread for the kids. Both were next level! The pan de chocolat lasted about 6 minutes and we grabbed a second banana bread because the first was half gone within an hour. It was as unique as it was delicious - it incorporated cinnamon, chia seed, and orange zest. It was the least banana-y banana bread we've had and overall we loved it! If you're in the area, you should check it out, and get there early because when stuff is gone for the day, it's gone!

Nutella Croissant
Mat A.

Was walking around the Dairy Block Alley in the afternoon when we saw this bakery. The sign said it was closed early because everything was sold out, and I knew that I definitely had to try their baked goods. Came by the next day and that sign did not lie - I could totally understand how they could sell out their stock. The croissants we got were all perfectly flaky with a tasty filling - so much so that we ended up getting multiple different croissants. If you're hangering for some tasty baked goods, definitely come by and come by early. It's worth the stop.

Not easy to find this place. It's in the alley. Great warm heaters on top of your head to keep you warm. Get the croissants. Yummy

Monkey bread (top left), apple and caramel scones, pumpkin cupcake, lemon poppyseed cookies, brown butter pecan cookie

I stayed downtown on a recent trip to Denver. One evening I visited friends for dinner and needed to bring a sweet treat. I gave LoDough a shot because of its proximity to my hotel and its reviews. Succinctly - it is a cute shop with wonderful staff and great products. The individual who helped me spent time with me identify a range of treats for a varied set of preferences and needs. To that end, this bakery offers a wide range of gluten free options. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, everything we tried was delicious. The monkeybread was moist and sweet, the scones were scones but still flavorful, the cookies were the surprising hit of the group. Admittedly, I didn't try the pumpkin cupcake, but everyone else seemed to enjoy it.

Cookies
Luis M.

Definitely pleased with this place. Got here just before they closed/sold out. Got the chocolate chip (ate it before I could take a picture). It was so good. Soft, chewy and delicious. Like when cookies are all around. The tart was solid too. These people know what they are doing with the blueberry. Cookies $3 tart $6 Not a lot of space inside to eat. Nice bench outside with a funny quote. I'd recommend eat and snap.

Assorted baked goods
Tiffany A.

Stopped here to pick up some pastries for dessert and share with coworkers. Ended up getting a GF lemon poppy seed cookie, an Irish Creme croissant, a Danish and monkey bread. Our shared favorite was the Danish, and the croissant had a nice rum-flavored cream inside. The monkey bread was pretty dry, same with the GF cookie. Overall, I'd go back for breakfast and get a croissant but not a dessert-like baked good. The nice lady behind the counter said the ingredients used to make the baked goods come from Paris, which is pretty cool! I'd like to go back again and try one of their baguettes.

Pain au chocolate
Francie M.

Just get pastries here instead of milk market - they quality is better! Stunning bread and pastries - my pain au chocolate was incredibly flaky. Logistics: - no specific seating for this place but there's a bench or two nearby in the restaurants alleyway - they did have a GF muffin and GF cookie option - they were almost sold out of pastries by about 1:30pm on a Saturday

He set the tone right away! Warm, happy to have us there, easy to talk to. I mentioned to my friend that I was thinking about a bloody mary, and a minute or two later Ryan asked if he should get that bloody started. He'd caught it in passing conversation, not because he was hovering. That's a hard balance to strike and he nailed it all afternoon. The drinks were great. Nothing fancy on my end, a bloody mary, a shaken screwdriver. Not too strong or weak. Sounds simple, but a lot of bartenders can't consistently hit it! We all got eggs your way, simple stuff done well. The roasted fingerling potatoes were crispy outside, fluffy inside, super good!! The strawberry jam was giving homemade, but I didn't confirm. Overall, Ryan made the visit. Calm presence, good company, and there's nothing better than a brunch seat at his bar next to those big open windows!

Well, I have visited this restaurant 3 times. All 3 times have been for a holiday brunch or…read moredinner. Location (4 stars) This restaurant is downtown near the convention center. parking is pricy if you valet park at the hotel. Last year it was around $40. Parking in the lot across the street for $25 dollars Easter Sunday. If you use a walker, I would not recommend the parking lot across the street. Food (3 Stars) The Thanksgiving buffet is the best one. I would rate that buffet a (4). The Christmas and Easter buffet are pretty low key. There is a carving station (ham and prime rib). There is an omelet station. Dessert bar is decorative. Cheesecake was delicious. The warming station with potatoes, sausage etc. leaves much to be desired. The charcuterie station is sparse. They offer unlimited mimosas for an additional $25. Service (5 stars) Staff are extremely friendly. Cleanliness (2 stars) My only complaint, I saw a tabletop being cleaned off with a rag used to clean the chairs and then under the table on the floor and on to the next tabletop. I'm just a little picky about that. Especially since folks these days go commando and wear short attire, and you know their parts are on the chair and now spread to tabletops. Wiping up the crumbs off the floor with same rag simply through me over the edge. Atmosphere (4 stars) Spacious uncrowded environment. Nice decor. Bright with large windows.

During the last few Denver Restaurant Week events, I've tried to take the offerings as an…read moreopportunity to sample restaurants that I haven't tried, or otherwise may not try, and see if I can add to my list of favorites. I saw Former Saint on CBS News, and the menu and food looked incredible. In particular, that white chocolate blueberry cheesecake was something I know my hubby would look forward to all week! I loved the idea of local food and fresh homemade dishes. Sounds healthy, after a week of potential over-indulgence at other restaurant week venues. An additional bonus was that it is located right near the Denver Convention Center and the Performing Arts Center. This has become a dry spot for fine dining, with even the choices on Larimer Square growing more thin, giving rise to the inability to get reservations at favorites like Tamayo and Rioja prior to a show. I go to performances frequently with friends, and despite my rule to avoid hotel restaurants (Former Saint is in the Hyatt Regency), I thought I'd scope out Former Saint as a place to take my friends before the next symphony or Children's Chorale or ballet or broadway performance. I must say, the jury is still out. Former Saint was a Jekyll and Hyde of courses. Parking was not difficult (Yay, maybe I can park here prior to my shows, if I grab a bite first). There is a large garage, and the promise of validation from the restaurant. The ambiance of the restaurant is typical hotel restaurant. Booths, tables, old and a bit drab. Except for the bar. Oh, my! The bar has this BEAUTIFUL copper creation above it, adding so much industrial character to the space! I was in awe looking at it, as it appeared to bring craft suds to the bartender's taps. I didn't ask how it worked, as it wasn't clear how the beer separation and dispensing worked, but it was a great centerpiece and spectacle for the place. I do wish I had investigated more about this architectural marvel, and will do so if I return. For restaurant week, my husband chose the Lobster Ravioli, Ribeye, and blueberry cheesecake (as predicted). I chose the Gotham salad, roasted chicken, and key lime tart. The lobster ravioli was nice; my husband was surprised that it was a toasted ravioli, but enjoyed it. My salad was full of beautiful greens, pears, walnuts, and feta. No scrimping here! The dressing was light and sweet/sour. The pears were a bit unripe and crisp, to the point that I was having trouble identifying exactly what fruit I was eating, but other than that, the salad was beautiful, healthy, and ample. My husband's ribeye steak was a nice cut, done to his liking. Slivered hash browns were underneath with a nice green chimichurri on top and some sliced Fresnos adding a welcome kick to the dish. My chicken was delightful. 1/2 chicken on the bone, seasoned nicely, and with a pan sauce. The breast was super-tender and delicious. It came atop cheesy grits, which was a yummy substitute for a mashed potato. I also was served side salad of curly lettuce and fennel. I probably didn't need more salad, but I was glad to have the healthy side on my plate. I will say that this salad was over-seasoned. The chicken and grits were great, but the salad too salty. My husband ordered a glass of J. Lohr Cabernet, which was a very nice find on the wine list, as far as a pairing for his ribeye. That said, the glass cost $30! A bit much, I might say. The real detractor, unfortunately, was dessert. The blueberry cheesecake looked nothing like the beautiful creamy white cheesecake accented throughout by purple blueberries, which I saw on the CBS News clip. My husband was served a very small solid purple slice, overcome with whipped cream dollops. This cheesecake had been uncovered in the fridge too long, with sort of a skin on it. My husband ate almost none of it. My key lime tart was similarly over-adorned with whipped cream, although I had some nice raspberries on top. The tart also seemed overexposed to the cool air, with the thickening of a skin on top. It was a very disappointing way to end a nice meal, and belied the healthy, homemade, craft theme. High points of this experience include the well-crafted and healthy entrees, the fact that we could see the convention center right outside our window (i.e., the location is perfect for pre-event or -theater), the $3.00 validated parking fee, and that beautiful copper tap system. Will the pros outweigh the cons? Will we be back with friends? Time will tell.
