    Front of restaurant

    The restaurant itself has a very modern Persian vibe, and it is beautifully decorated! The mocha latte was spot-on and got me going for the day (I got 4 shots of espresso in mine). Although I used a scooter, the restaurant is located conveniently with parking in the Denver Health building, if you drive. The staff are very friendly and helpful with answering any questions I had. The food was amazing, and gyros in the omelet was delicious!

    I met a group here for lunch and we didn't have any trouble finding seating, but we did have to spread out. It's a cozy ambiance. I'd recommend taking a look at the menu online ahead of time because you order at a kiosk. I put in a special request of no tomatoes in my pizza and it was covered with them, so don't love not ordering with a person. I also got the hummus and it was huge. I didn't think there was enough pita bread for the size of the hummus. I would definitely come back. FYI that it's just street parking.

    Steak & Herb Pizza

    Definitely a thumbs-up from me! Fantastic spot on Broadway, just by Denver Health and a short drive from Civic Center and Bakers Neighborhood. The place got this chill urban vibe and super clean. The food is tasty; I tried the Steak & Herb Pizza which is a mix of NY style and deep-dish which by itself is really unique. Also Kobideh Sandwich which is soft grilled ground beef and flavorful white sauce, topped with some chopped tomatoes and all placed in freshly baked bread. The whole place just screams laid-back urban vibes. You gotta try this place!

    A banana Mediterranean Breakfast Platter. So delicious !

    I adore this place! I have never been disappointed. They have amazing salads! I also love their pastries and lattes. They have lots of options for breakfast, lunch and dinner! The staff is always so friendly and the atmosphere is wonderful! Right near Denver Health and 15% off for employees of Denver Health for coffee, drinks and sandwiches!

    First time at this new Denver restaurant. They are on the northwest corner of Broadway & 6th Ave near the Denver Health complex and Mariott hotel. They offer coffee, Persian teas, and smoothies with breakfast items 7am-11am, then lunch & dinner until 8pm Mon-Sat. They offer several Persian related beverages and foods in addition to the usual light lunch and dinner fare. I started with their creamy barley soup made with veggies and topped with olive oil and a full size pita cut into triangular shapes. You can add proteins like chicken, steak and salmon. Very good. Next I got their "The Green" salad with a bed of spri g mix, chopped walnuts, whipped feta cheese, cucumbers, green tomatoes with a lemon olive oil dressing. Crunchy and refreshing. I added a cup of hot Persian black tea with Oat Milk. I also a personal size thin crust pizza with roasted chicken, walnuts, sun-dried tomatoes and tarragon with a creamy garlic sauce instead of tomato sauce. A great pizza. They have 2 other versions, cheesy eggplant and pepperoni. You order at the front counter and they bring out the food. The hot tea was served in a china cup. Despite being next to both Broadway & 6th Ave, there was no traffic noise. They have several high top tables and 4 booths. There is also a couch with antique furnishings for relaxing nearby. The have 2 gender free restrooms. They have soft drinks, but no alcohol. There is large dessert display case with both American style & Persian pasties, like baklava.

    This was literally some of the best food I've ever eaten. We stopped there on a whim due to its open hours and could not have been happier. I just recommended it to a friend today. Everything was delicious - even the iced tea!

    blueberry danish, iced matcha latte

    Quiet cafe near downtown! Delicious food and drink, very kind/helpful staff, and super reasonable prices (I got a huge danish and a matcha latte for only $11). The man who took my order was very nice, and another man who I assume to be the owner was checking up on customers, making sure the sun from the windows was not bothering us. A bit sad that I am only visiting from out of state, I hope to find somewhere like Urban Cafe where I live :)

    This place was amazing! We had sandwiches and a Persian dish, as well as Persian tea. So incredibly tasty. Pricing great, too. Everyone was kind and helpful. Highly recommend!

Sounds excellent and I will try it next time! I always learn about something that I want to try the next time I'm in! I had previously purchased the Platt Park roast (love the local love!), and enjoyed French pressing it at home. It was really smooth and delicious - an all morning presser. I noticed that this time when I was in that they had beans for sale that had CBD! So interesting! I love the CBD nitro cold brew at Blue Sparrow and so I totally zoomed in on this on the shelf and was totally intrigued and had so many questions! The roaster happened to be in the store so he answered all my questions! This place always feel so sophisticated and I always learn multiple new things just by speaking with the barista's and this time the roaster as well! I love dropping in at this literal neighborhood gem whenever I'm in the neighborhood!

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

S'mores Pop-Tart: My husband got this toasted treat with a marshmallow topping, and it was incredible. It's like a high-end version of a childhood classic. Atmosphere: We sat on the patio since it was a beautiful day. It's a great spot to catch up and take your time, but bring sunglasses! It gets very bright out there. Price: We spent around $25-$30 for two drinks and two snacks. For the quality of the craft coffee and the unique house-made pastries, it's definitely worth it. Overall Experience: I highly recommend coming here if you're visiting Colorado or if you live here. It's a top-tier coffee spot with a few locations in Denver and I always recommend trying their coffee flights.

Even on a sunday morning, service was fast and it didn't feel crowded. Parking was easy, which is a plus. I liked that the atmosphere struck a good balance between not being too quiet so it feels weird to talk and not being too loud where I'm feel like I'm yelling to my friend and can't hear her. It feels like a great place to work or study. The baristas were extremely friendly, and I was impressed by the variety of baked goods available. I do wish there were a few more coffee drink options overall, but since they do mochas well, I would definitely come back.

The fruits sandwich made with shokupan bread was light and fresh, an excellent pick-me-up. This is a standard Japanese snack done beautifully. The mixed berries (a Danish made with croissant dough) was a delight in looks and taste. Neither item was excessively sweet. They were just right. The beef curry wrapped in dough, crusted in panko crumbs, and deep-fried was excellent. The curry itself had real flavor and zest, and the surrounding crust was delicious too. Not only a great accompaniment, but also a very cool way to eat curry with your bare hands. A very generous serving too. My brother got the most beautiful-looking chocolate croissant!
