When taking my order the barista was very disconnected and kept staring outside when I was ordering, then a line came after I placed my order. I don't mind waiting AT ALL and the wait wasn't the issue, but I think my cinnamon roll was forgotten and when I got it it was kinda burnt- then on my drive home I bit into a piece of foil under the roll. Because a line had formed I couldn't get the baristas attention for lids at the condiment station and after being there for awhile I left and took the risk of spilling my drink in my car. Please up your staffing lol

Lucy's Coffee House is a true community gathering place. It is beautifully decorated with the most…read morecomfortable seating we have experienced in any coffee shop in Metro Denver. There are large tables for groups to come together socially or for business. They offer free Wi-Fi. The seating in the back is very private. They played relaxing and calming music that was a pleasure to listen to while drinking delicious coffee and sitting in comfort. Hannah was our barista, and she was lovely! She is a kind and friendly person who took the time to explain how to make reservations for the Ethiopian Coffee Ceremony that can be scheduled on Saturdays or Sundays. The Yirgacheffe coffee was incredible, so smooth! It is from Ethiopia--the birthplace of coffee. The food menu is vegetarian (no meat served) The noise level was perfect, indoor seating is plentiful (no outdoor seating), and parking is plentiful in the lot in front. In the restroom, the toilet was a bidet. I wish the menu were in a larger font to make it easier to read. I feel coffee shops in general need ample storage to keep supplies and clutter out of sight of customers.

The service was really friendly, even though they were super busy. Apparently, the space, while still called Coffee Story, has new owners. So they've kept many of the Korean favorites (and the mochi donuts-- yay!), but a lot of the dessert and coffee options now are inspired by SWANA (Southwest Asian and North African) cultures.

I have been meaning to check out Coffee Story by Barakah Brews for a while now so I'm glad I…read morefinally got the chance to. I like the options they have on their menu. I ended up getting the Biscoff Latte with oat milk and the mixed berry croffle. If you like sweet drinks like me, then the Biscoff latte is really up your alley. The mixed berry croffle was also pretty good. I expected the croffle to be more flaky because the base is a croissant but it was still pretty good. Although I didn't get pictures of the inside, there's plenty of seating but beware that the tables inside can be quite small for a group of 2 coming in to work or study. Make sure to come early enough to snag one of the tables with more chairs so you have more space. Also they are open really late. I believe it's 11 p.m. or 12 a.m. which is great! Make sure to check their website for hours. Otherwise, I really liked the ambience and the space so I'll definitely be coming back again. I really need to come back and try their matcha and their honeycomb, amongst other things.

Wowee! A few doors…read moredown from Maandeeq East African Cafe (previously reviewed by yours truly) is another Somali gem, Ifka Cafe (no relation to the now-deceased Iftin Cafe which was a different (but also Somali) eatery further down Havana. But I digress). "Now Mark", I hear you ask, "how can two Somali food joints coexist in such close proximity?" Well, if you'll just hush for a minute, I'll fill you right in. Whereas Maandeeq focuses on full, sit-down meals, Ifka is more of a coffeeshop serving Somali snacks (wow, try saying that several times in succession!) Among the items offered - Sambusa (fried pastries stuffed with ground chicken, beef, or veggies, these are indeed reminiscent of South Asian Samosas), Maandazi (think of a slightly sweet Somali sopaipilla - oh, there I go with the alliteration again), Bajiye (lentil fritters), Bur Somali (another fried-bread item), and so on. Stop by early (as early as 8:30 am in fact) for the best selection! Wash it down with a delicious Shaah (spiced tea). Or maybe a Qahwo (coffee) is closer to what you have in mind? Then, finish it off with that dark, gelatinously sugary sweet called Xalwo, or the white, coconut-flavored one called Qumbe. Oh, just point - you'll know them when you see them. Ah, I get it. You want a full meal, but you just ate at Maandeeq yesterday. Well, if you come early enough you can try Fouel (thick tomato-bean stew usually served with Canjeero/Anjera - see my Maandeeq review for more about this bready item). Or stop by later and partake in a Steak Sandwich. Yes, you read that correctly. Think of Maandeeq's thin beef steak dish, stick it on a bun, add lettuce, tomato, onion and Bisbaas (hot green pepper sauce) and there you are! And there's more! From Odkac (the breakfast favorite of chopped meat slow-cooked in butter) to Kalluun (a moist fish fillet) to even Cambuulo (sweet red-bean porridge, traditionally consumed at dinner). For its tasty morsels and general uniqueness, it gives me enormous pleasure (fanfare, please!) to award Ifka with 5 stars. Yes, 5ive, like the Jacksons. Well, there were actually 9 of them but you see what I mean. NB: Once again, per Somali custom, this is an alcohol-free establishment. Please do not ask for beer, wine, etc., as this is considered insulting.

This place reminds me of one of my favorite Ethiopian cafes/restaurants. Per one of my friend…read moreElites, this is a Somali place. Well, I love African food in general so when this place came up in my search (even though I wasn't necessarily looking for that specific cuisine), I wasted no time to rush to it. I just needed a late morning cup of joe and something light to eat so that's what I got today. First of all, this place is not for coffee in my opinion. I asked for a cappuccino but the guy behind the counter made me a coffee (with cream; I could call that a latte maybe??) He did put some sort of a spice in it which definitively enhanced the quality of it and it didn't taste bad to be frank but it definitely wasn't a gourmet coffee or super delicious. I wasn't unhappy or anything. However, I let it sit for about 15 min or so as it was super hot when I got it, it tasted a bit better. Like a wine has to breathe a bit after opening its bottle, my coffee had to sit until the spice was well mixed in it. Now let's move on to the sambusas. Both Beef and Veggie ones were delicious. I couldn't remember which one but one of them had a little kick in it so the spiciness lingered in my mouth for good 10 minutes after I ate it. Also, the menu had some delicious looking food on it so next time I go here, I'll definitely get a lunch plate (and it looks like they can serve you quickly so if you are looking for a quick/yummy Ethiopian food, this might be your place.) Overall, today's visit was pretty good.
