    Coffee is good, nice latte with good foam. Cute spot with indoor and patio seating. Not much food selection, only a few small pastries. It's a nice coffee shop! Great for the area

    Metropolis is a cute coffee shop with good vibes! I got a latte (half caf) and it was great! They also had a gf apple cider muffin, it was incredible! When the door to the apartment lobby is open they have great seating, including 3 booths! The music was nice and chill and the barista was super nice!

    Stopped by before heading to the Nuggets Championship parade and was pleased to find a local coffee shop that serves good Guatemala coffee . They have anything from expresso, americanos to drip coffee and the staff was nice . I opten for a cortado coffee and added pistachio flavor . Also tried their cold brew coffee and their herbal ice tea and were delicious as well. Presentation of the cortado was beautiful. Next time you're in the neighborhood try it out and as always don't forget to support LOCAL !

    Friendly fast service. This is my favorite coffee in the city with the prettiest lattes. Chill spot to get some work done with minimal noise and distractions.

    Very quiet and clean. Not a big cafe but a nice place to get some work done. Smells so good when you walk in and the barista is very friendly not to mention can make a great cortado! The coffee is bold and rich without the over roasted bitter taste. It's like chocolate velvet. Just a tip you must be a customer to use the restrooms.

    Stopped in yesterday with my teens after some time at the aquarium. Nice cafe interior with simple decor and a basic drink menu. The highlight though were the homemade syrups. One teen had an ice chai and the other had a raspberry vanilla Italian some. I had a nonfat latte with hibiscus syrup. One thing we all noticed was that the syrup flavors came through without the overly sweet taste of the big name syrups.

    The absolute only and best homemade brown sugar cinnamon pop tart I have ever had, and a delicious almond milk latte. You've got to try it!

    Yummy mochas, good space for working, good music (once or twice the music was a little loud for studying).

    Yes, it's not roasted in Denver, but is instead from Herkimer Coffee in Seattle, but who cares because it still tastes better.

    Vibe Coffee & Wine has a very chill atmosphere as soon as you walk in. I stopped by on a weekend…read moremorning. The three cozy pods were already occupied, but I was able to grab a seat at one of the two communal work tables, which gave me easy access to an outlet to charge my phone. They also offer free wifi. There were plenty of other seating options too, including lounge chairs and bar seating. They even have a billiards table! I ordered an iced London fog and opted for coconut milk, which is not typically available as a milk alternative. It came with vanilla syrup by default and was very good. I also tried the bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich on an English muffin. This was the only disappointing part of my visit. It seemed like a premade sandwich that had been reheated, so the bacon was soft rather than crispy, which is my preference. Overall, Vibe Coffee & Wine is worth a quick stop, but it is especially nice as a place to relax, hang out, or settle in and do a little work.

There are towering ceilings and comfortable chairs. There are enough electrical outlets to power a small army of laptop philosophers who are pretending to write important books. It looks like a place where profound human connections ought to happen. Mine did not. The baristas handled my order as though enthusiasm had recently been made a felony by the federal government. They were not malicious. They simply performed the transactional ritual of caffeinating a stranger with the exact emotional investment of a parking meter. The beverage itself was perfectly adequate. Bad coffee inspires anger. This coffee merely inspired a quiet acceptance of my own mortality. It was average in that completely forgettable way that makes you wonder why you parted with currency for a specialty drink in the first place. If you need a nice chair to sit in while the world falls apart, you will find it here. If you are looking for a memorable cup or a warm human interaction, you will probably leave remembering the furniture.

    Did someone say ceremonial Matcha? Hell to the yea!…read more I had bookmarked this place for our stay in Denver on our trek from California. We always like to scope out the best coffee spots ahead of time. Little Owl did not disappoint! First, it's always difficult to find ceremonial grade Matcha wherever you go. Most of the time it's Matcha mixed with a bunch of other stuff and at best it's culinary grade. The Matcha here was vibrant in color, smooth and slightly nutty. I elected to sweeten it with simple syrup and had it Americano. My husband opted for a vanilla latte with oat milk and while we've stopped at several places so far, this is the best latte we've had on our roadtrip. They make all of their syrups in house and the coffee was smooth and not bitter. The cafe is small and quaint. It does open up into a larger building with additional seating. Customer service was on point, and we even joked about the different types of Matcha and how some places use a ton of fillers and sugar.

    Ordered: 12oz Vanilla Latte (~$7)…read more Aya's take: Little Owl Coffee has a few locations in Denver so I figured the coffee here must be good! I tried the Vanilla Latte which was nicely sweetened, creamy, and soothing. The espresso was pulled well and gave me the caffeine kick I needed to start my day. They have some bar seating here but the cafe also extends into the lobby where you can sit and have a slow morning if you choose. Good try!

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

My friend and I shared coconut lemon and banana breads and I got a mocha drink. Both breads were tasty but I liked the coconut lemon slightly more, it had a good lemon flavor with real coconut bits. The mocha was sweet but not too sweet. People there aren't loud so we were able to converse easily without raising our voices. It's also open until midnight so you have a place to go to chill late at night if you're in the area
