    Hot chocolate (closest) and a mocha (furthest)
    Katie P.

    This little spot is a gem in RiNo with delicious coffee and hot chocolate as well as baked goods. The space is quaint with cozy seats. It's near many cute little shops I will say that seats are limited and the restroom is outside and around the corner so do go with a friend to save your table spot! Will be back as Blue Sparrow is always a top coffee spot for me!

    This was a nice, convenient coffee spot for an early morning coffee run! What I appreciated most is that this is one of the only coffee shops near where I was staying that opened @6:30a rather than 7a or later, because I wanted to get on the freeway by 7a to get where I was going. I stopped in around 6:45, and the place was small but empty. Very inviting space, would def be nice to study in! The barista helped me out right away, he was friendly and quick so I was on my way by 6:50. I had a chai tea latte, really can't go wrong there - can't say it was so phenom I would go out of my way to come again though. But if I was in the area and needing a pick me up, I would def come again! Note it's all street parking, there was plenty that Friday morning though.

    Blue Sparrow is quickly becoming one of my favorite coffee spots in Denver. Their coffee is just so good, every time I stop by for a cup. They always got a great selection of pastries (both sweet and savory options) as well. Huge fan of this location in particular because it's close to the apartment, and the outdoor patio green space is such a vibe to sit and hang out at.

    Came here with a friend on a Sunday for a quick bite on our walk. They had plenty of drink options as well as a nice pastry selection. Unfortunately, the pasty was a bit dry, but I think that is because it is just sitting there open to all air. It would have been nice if they asked if we wanted it warmed up but it still tasted okay. They had indoor and outdoor seating which was very convenient. It was cute inside and they had two people at the counter taking order. I would be happy to come back here and try a few different things.

    Blue Sparrow Coffee is a small yet cute coffee shop in RiNo. The menu consists of the basics. I tried the golden latte and mocha. Both were good but I would say I've had better around Denver. It was pretty busy when I arrived but the line moved quick and the baristas were very friendly.

    Scone and Japanese coffee
    Logan P.

    Went to blue sparrow early June 2025 and got the Japanese coffee and scone. The place was very busy and everyone was talkative. It made studying difficult but I would go back again.

    caramel latte and iced matcha latte
    Steve M.

    excellent coffee shop in the tip-top tier of colorado. all drinks are incredible. their golden match is to die for. a healthy mixture of turmeric and matcha for a phytonutrient extravaganza. their caramel oat lattes are fire . nummy pasties, both savory and sweet. compelling indoor and outdoor spaces, nice music, great restaurants nearby. they have a second location near rei, which is also quite excellent (my partner's favorite coffee shop in denver).

    Needed a central spot to meet up with some friends and we found ourselves at Blue Sparrow Coffee which was the perfect spot to hang out with friends! The café has the cutest courtyard, making it an ideal place to relax and enjoy some great coffee. I tried the ham and Swiss croissant, and it was hands down the best I've ever had--flaky, buttery, and so delicious! The coffee was excellent too, and the staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. I'll definitely be coming back to enjoy more of their delicious food and chill in that adorable courtyard! Highly recommend!

    Cute cafe with some indoor seating, plenty of outdoor seating, and a large upstairs patio. Would be a great place to study or work. We got an iced oat milk latte, iced matcha latte, and Japanese iced coffee. Unfortunately I didn't get photos of the drinks because we all started drinking them right away, but each drink was really good and worth getting!

    Cutest little coffee shop with outdoor seating! I had the Japanese iced coffee on tap and it was great! The croissant was so flaky. Perfect place to spend your morning!

    Black coffee and matcha
    K K.

    The matcha was really yum and pastries looked great! Great for working with a laptop (has an outdoor area but limited outlets)

    Kathleen W.

    Cute place with plenty of options for outdoor seating and comfortable blue interior seats for working quietly, studying, reading or lounging with friends. This was our first stop for our Colorado trip and it lives up to expectations ~

    This shop is adorable and the ambiance is lovely. The building is open to the outside so it's perfect for Denver weather patio days. Great natural lighting and chill place if you need to work. The day we were there they had the best playlist and I was loving the vibes! I had an iced tea that was super refreshing. Service was good. 10/10 recommend!

The seating areas feel intentionally designed, cozy, and creative ~ and they rotate the layout every couple of months, which keeps things feeling fresh. When I stopped by, the main room was set up with comfy couches, lounge chairs, and bean-bag-style seating that practically invites you to settle in. I got so relaxed I ended up hanging out for several hours without even realizing it. It's the kind of place where time disappears in the best way. Shoutout to Joy, the beertender working that day ~ she was fantastic. Super knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely helpful when talking through the beers. Great service without being overbearing, which always elevates the experience. If you're looking for a spot downtown that feels laid-back, stylish, and thoughtfully curated, this taproom absolutely delivers. I don't get downtown as often as I should, but this place is officially on my "come here more often" list. Love this new taproom ~100% my vibe!!!

And their pizzas do stand apart from others! We ordered the War Pig Pizza and a small Caesar Salad. The pizza was topped with a red sauce & a cheese blend, with cotija, pepperoni, prosciutto, bacon, sun-dried tomatoes & a chipotle-maple glaze - it was outstanding! The combination with these ingredients made for a delicious craveable pizza. I especially liked the glaze, more sweet than spicy. However, the salad was just okay, the dressing didn't have a lot of flavor & the lettuce could have been more fresh.
