This is probably one of the better breakfast places I've been to, in terms of taste. I got the cheesy grits with vegetables and eggs, and my sister got the huevos rancheros. They were both really tasty. My dish was lacking grits. In fact, my dish was on the watery side, but it still tasted good. The huevos rancheros was really tasty too. Super crispy tortilla! The potatoes were very flavorful too. Service was lacking a bit. The person helping us did not stop by once during our meal. I asked for ketchup and hot sauce and never got any... Prices were a little pricier for what you get (~$13/person). There was about a ten minute wait for two on Friday around 11am. read more

Love this brunch destination in Washington Park. (We haven't been for lunch or dinner). We are early risers and most of the time we don't have to wait more than 15-20 minutes for a table. One weekend we didn't get here until 9am and we did not want to wait 30-40 minutes for a table. Food is good, tables are a little small. Service is cheery and prompt. If you have a weakness for sweets, be forewarned you'll have to walk past an enticing display of baked goods that will be hard to resist. read more

I just went there for a special breakfast with my toddler daughter. My hash was decent, but her salmon was really over cooked and she didn't eat it. The reason for the negative review is that it took us over 45 minutes to get our food. Also, the table was so wobbly that the manager and waitress saw water spill all over the table and the coffee spill all over my lap, and the best they offered was a "sorry, this table sucks". They didn't offer to fix the table or refund the coffee. And the dirty wet napkins sat on the table the entire time, while we waited an eternity for everything. I really liked the ambiance and wanted to love the place, but overall it was pretty disappointing. It just seemed like a bit snooty rather than an authentic neighborhood joint. read more

Ambiance, quality food and friendly service make this little gem in nestled in a quiet neighborhood a perfect spot for brunch or coffee. We sat outside in the back and the walk past the antique sideboard old Chambers stove indicated we were in for a treat. Their brunch menu is small, but comprehensive and the omelettes (#1-5) are a testament to quality ingredients and savory blends. I ordered the Strawberry Gazpacho (savory with green onions) and the #5 omelette plus mushrooms. The food was served quickly and the presentation was impeccable. Their menu indicates that their ingredients are organic and they pay attention to detail with delicate flavors. The #5 has a red pepper pesto garnish that blends perfectly with Brie to elevate the experience from eating to dining. The quaint street has several local shops and boutiques and makes for a wonderful brunch and stroll. I held back one star simply because the service, although friendly, was a bit slow and lacked a brunch standard - coffee refills are regular intervals. I will be back before I leave Denver if only to try the eggs and cornbread. read more

This place is awesome! I had the stuffed French toast and couldn't have asked for more in terms of the food or coffee. The front area has a great atmosphere but the dining area seems to have been forgotten in decorating! Put some art on the walls or something! Food gets a 5! Service gets a 5! Visual appeal of dining area gets a 3. read more

Devil's Food Bakery - Stuffed French Toast! Awesome! - Bakeries Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Best breakfast in the area. Chicken and waffles are on point! Will be a regular spot for us to go!

Holy moly! This place is top notch! We were greeted almost immediately, with waters in hand which is so appreciated, and the service staff is very friendly! But the real winner here is the food! Normally I take pictures to post but once the aroma hit my nose I forgot all about the camera and just went straight in! Seriously every person at my table agreed, best brunch we've had in a long time! My pancake was so fluffy and delicious and my sausage? Perfect. My friends had eggs Benedict and chicken and waffles and both said said they were the best they've ever had! One friend got a Bloody Mary and said that was fantastic as well. A+ all around! read more

Best coffee and pastry's!! The staff is so wonderful. I come here way too often and always have a great time

Stopped in to grab a couple of pastries- tried the fruit strudel and the chocolate bundt cake. I'm not sure how long they left the strudel sitting out but the crust was stale and hard in some places and the filling tasted sour and acidic. The bundt case was dry and not moist so that was pretty disappointing. With a name like Devil's Food I was expecting the chocolate cake to be better. read more

I recently enjoyed Devil's Food Cookery for brunch with my husband & a friend. We were a little confused by the separation of the bakery & cookery. We started off in the bakery. It was adorable. We were trying to find the cookery, which is a couple of doors down. I had the ratatouille with eggs. Best poached eggs I have ever had! It seriously made me wish I had just ordered a bunch of eggs; they were perfection. My companions ordered chicken & waffles and the beet salad. I think we all enjoyed our meals, but weren't particularly impressed. Also the drinks were rather sweet. The cocktail descriptions made me hope for sophisticated drinks that ultimately didn't deliver. read more

I've been all around the world and this is the best bakery I've ever been to. The fact it doesn't have 5 stars is comical. Yelp should delete any review that's less than 5 stars. I'd pay triple these prices for any item on the menu. read more

3 words: "chicken pot pie." Had one today and it was a cream dream. Not your mother's version, or at least not my mother's version. A longtime favorite that has been updated here to my liking. No crust-- who needs a crust? Had it take out and reheated in my oven. The sauce, the flavor, the richness, the shredded chicken pieces rang my bell. Loved it! read more

We went to the sit down restaurant (vs the cafe with pastries and greeting cards) and had amazing food and service. There was no wait at 9am on a Tuesday. Split the French press ($7) and got both the quinoa cakes and the cornbread waffle with pork on top. I'd recommend both! Our server was very attentive. read more

This is a review for the Bakery portion. This place annoys me to no end. I live a block away, and it's the only coffee shop in the neighborhood, so I unfortunately have to come here if I don't feel like driving somewhere. I do not understand how, even if you're the only person in line, it takes 10 minutes for these slow ass baristas to make a god damned drink. I've never seen people move so slowly to do ANYTHING in my life. It's very rare to ever be the only person in line, though. No, there's usually 10 Karens in line, and they all brought in their gross children who manhandle all the baked goods that aren't behind glass. These moms also have to let their four kids tell the barista which pastries they want, so they each take 10 minutes to place their order and pay. Thirty minutes later, you finally get to leave with your $5.50 12 oz latte and mediocre pastry. I hate this place so much. read more

Best (spicy) chai latte in Denver hands down. The frosted butter cookie is to die for. Great savory pastries. Nice baristas

I was so excited to check this place out. Even walking through the front door I was thinking "new favorite coffee spot". It is so cute. Then...I ordered. I'm a coffee nut, but my tastes range from diner drip (it has its own charm!) to multinational chains, to the more local, handcrafted brews. At Devil's Food my latte was undrinkable. It took forever to be made, was horribly bitter, and the barista waited until she handed it to me to let me know that they don't carry ANY sweeteners. My almond croissant was burned in places and uncooked in the middle. Gross. I threw it out after a few bites. So, let's talk about the "no sweetener" policy. I think it's an elitist thing, or just a power move...like "we are far too cool to allow our coffee to be adulterated by Splenda." She said (in a tone that made it clear she has this same conversation with incredulous new patrons multiple times an hour) "People bring their own if they really want fake sugar." That's when I tried to picture myself liking this place so much that I stashed sweetener in my glove compartment so that I could come back when I was in the neighborhood - and I realized - that sounded like way too much damn work. I would not be coming back. read more

A great little bakery serving baked goods and pastries, breakfast, lunch, coffee, and afternoon tea. Expanded a few years back to include a seating area, which really opened the place up to new services. The coffee is good, Dazbog, and the pastries are to die for (pun intended). The breakfast and brunch is great, and eating in the late morning with a group is truly a treat. The atmosphere is nice, with large windows and plush sofas. Dozens of devilish trinkets litter the area, making it feel more "home-y". I recommend, for lighter eating, the mildly sweet powdered cinnamon roll. Great for a snack. Devil's Food is located on Old South Gaylord in Washington Park. read more

Yikes! I have to write a review for this establishment that isn't what I'd usually offer them. I dined here on MLK day 2018. The restaurant was pretty busy. The new Maître' D who I believe is actually the new back of the house manager told us the wait would be 45 minutes - Totally no problem there. I have mentioned to them before that I do wish they'd allow call aheads or reservations of some sort. Alas, they aren't interested in offering guests that option. Anyhow, we waited an hour. When we were finally seated, our server greeted us and he was awesome! Such a friendly and knowledgeable guy. I want to say his name was Aaron. We immediately ordered coffee and a chai refill which took about 20 minutes for us to get - So we sat there for 20 minutes wondering why it was taking so long for our beverages. He had several other tables but he appeared to hit it off with the table that was seated about 15 minutes after we were. Long story short, that table received their beverages immediately. We watched them receive them. The table on the other side of us was served after that with beverages. Finally the server brought us our beverages and begged our pardon. Ok, that's cool. However, when we placed order our it took about 45 minutes for it to be delivered to the table I was so hungry. I asked for a cream refill for my coffee but almond milk was delivered then the server disappeared for quite a while. I ended up asking the host / runner for cream. It was all super awkward because two tables who were seated 15 minutes after us got their beverages and food before us by about 15-30 minutes before we did but we ordered our food first. I should mention the other tables ordered food that had to be cooked and prep'd so its not like they ordered oatmeal or a salad. I'm just wondering why our order was placed last in the que by 30+ minutes. My suggestion would be this - The server should openly communicate with their tables if the guest's orders are running behind because apologizing after its been 45 minutes when people who were seated afterwards received their food is frustrating. If a server told me there was a mishap with my order, I would totally understand. In fact, I might even tip more because I can see how stressed he/she is. However if there is no communication, I'm put in a very awkward position. Did they forget about us? Did the server go on a break? Is he friends with the people who received their food way before us? What's going on here? Just be open and communicate. Be accountable and openly communicate, then no apologies are necessary. That being said, when we did have face time with our server he was such a really great person and we enjoyed him. I LOVE this establishment so much and have written many shining reviews because I truly believe they deserved them. However, what has happened to the quality of service in the last 12 months? I have brought several first timers to this establishment - a bit of a gamble if I've experienced poor service. Am I mad? No, not at all. My attitude is more like "guys... come on. What the heck is going on here??? Get it together so I can continue referring people to you". read more

I'm in the OG camp of "why did you guys change the name and the menu?" Devil's Food was always the one place in Denver I would brag about for consistency, value, and overall rock solid brunch to friends and guests from out of town. Of the probably 40 times we've eaten here over the last 8+ years not once was it not what we were expecting for wait times, food quality, service, etc., until 7/4. The wait was about 15 minutes longer than stated, no biggie, that happens, but when we were finally seated (outside, again, no biggie) there were four empty/dirty tables. Short on bussers, guys? Sheesh. Seat those two tops ahead and below us (a three top) on the list all day but at least make it look like you're trying to turn tables and accommodate guests. We sat down, checked the menu, and noticed two massive detriments to our normally pleasant Devil's Food experience - NO BREAKFAST BURRITO and the price of the two egg scramble went up to $15... Fine. Wash Park, Denver being overrun by people from USA City XYZ, food prices going up, blah blah blah. There's one major problem with the scramble change - you took away the potatoes and replaced it with spring greens, the cheapest, lamest, most plated hotel brunch thing possible. I understand food cost, I understand the industry, but don't you dare take my potatoes away and replace it with a 1/4 oz. of spring mix and some boring lemon vinaigrette. Sorry guys, we walked out, so bummed, so disappointed that our little brunch spot has fallen victim to Denver's ever-changing face. The server didn't ask why we were leaving, we just said we were taking off before ordering drinks or food, she seemed unfazed or perhaps just not surprised more patrons were bailing. The guy that sat us was super understanding, definitely appreciated his "oh my gosh you guys, what's wrong?" attitude. Sorry dude, too late. Damage done. Oh, and the bakery of theirs a few doors down was an absolute tragedy. When I got to the register at ~10:40a there were 3 donut holes, 2 muffins, and coffee cake left in the case beyond the hedgehogs, fruit tarts, and other pastry, but not breakfast pastry things. COMPLETELY wiped out, empty trays in the case teasing guests with signs of pastries past and crumbs. It must have been insanely busy earlier that morning or the "we're hiring a pastry chef" from their Facebook page is legit. Not once in all the times I've been to Devil's Food has there been such a sad display of short-staffed-ness. It was a good run, it really was, countless mornings spent here with my wife and son, parents, nephews and nieces, friends, colleagues, and so on. We'll look elsewhere from here on out. RIP Devil's Food. read more

First time stopping in today and can't wait to go back! Ordered the blueberry scone which came with some heavenly lemon butter type spread and then a croissant. Food was divine. I heard a lot of people order the chocolate croissant so I'm adding that to the list for next time. I also had chai which was yummy! Only 5 people allowed in at a time, but line moved so quickly. Masks have to be worn too. read more

Love this bakery - however I ordered 2 pies for Thanksgiving, pumpkin and apple crumb. The pumpkin was so so - a bit gummy. The apple crumb was extremely dry.... just chunks of dry apple and too much crumble - almost like it just had granola on top and the crusts on both of the pies were puff pastry not pie crust? read more

I came in and wanted to drink that they used to have on the menu but didn't anymore. They were so nice that they made it for me anyway it was the tequila drink with espresso and half-and-half, there is absolutely delicious.

I was not hungry myself that I will be back to try some of there delicious menu offerings. read more

Devils Food is amazing!!! Whether you need to pick up pastries for dessert, drop in for a coffee date, or bring you're laptop to get some work done, this is the spot you should go! I came here with my sister and boyfriend during my last visit to Colorado and I'm already excited to come back next time I'm there! We all loved it, my sister really enjoyed her lavender tea latte. It had a nice lavender flavor but it was not overpowering. They offered a huge selection of teas which is nice for people who are not into coffee. My boyfriend and I each got an iced vanilla latte and it was yummy! I probably could have made mine a little sweeter and they do not put out sugar packets so be specific if you like your drinks sweet like me! Now what really sets Devils Food apart from the average coffee spot are their baked treats! We indulged in the cinnamon roll and the cinnamon sugar donut hole! Oh my gosh! These were to die for, the cinnamon roll was flaky like a croissant and the donut hole was buttery and delicious. I'm definitely going to be back to try some of the desserts and pastries they offer as well! Overall, 5/5. Devils food has a great location surrounded by shops and restaurants near Wash Park. The ambiance is cozy and charming, and the drinks and treats were fabulous! read more

I can't say much for the bakery side because I have never visited, but the restaurant is my favorite brunch spot in Denver. Every time I have gone, the service and food has been awesome! Aaron (I think that is his name - veryyyy tall) is one of our favorite servers and when we come in he always makes us feel welcome and ensures we have a great experience. The food is excellent. I will back up other reviews that it does sometimes take awhile to get your food when they are very busy, but sit back and enjoy your time with friends and sip on one of their mimosas or bloody marys. They have fresh squeezed pineapple juice and I don't ever want to drink a mimosa any other way again. The inside is very cute and eclectic. If there is a wait, you can walk around to nearby shops or visit other restaurant bars to grab a drink while you wait for your table (clearly I do a lot of drinking at brunch...Sunday Funday??). I recommend this place to everyone! read more

Despite this spot's devilish name, the servers here are angels. I've been here twice now and really enjoyed it--from the Midwest home feel to the tasty brunch fare, Devil's Food is one of my favorite spots in Wash Park. I brunched here this past Saturday around 2 pm, and the place was packed. Devil's Food gets pretty busy on the weekend--we waited about 45 minutes for a table. They just opened a coffee/pastry shop two doors down though, which looked like a great spot to grab a coffee while you wait. You can also belly up to the bar for a mimosa, which would probably be my preferred method of making it through the long wait. We were seated at a small table near the window--I enjoyed the light but found it a little drafty on a January day in Denver. We started out with extra spicy bloody marys, because honestly every meal should start with that. It was a really tasty bloody--not too spicy or boozy, just very satisfying. I ordered the Huevos Rancheros and my partner ordered a la carte--two eggs, bacon, and a pancake. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time, but I don't think it was actually our order. They set down the Huevos but realized the other dish was wrong, so our server left the Huevos and went hunting for the correct dish. Next they brought out the eggs and bacon, and a few minutes later, the pancake. The pancake ended up being raw in the middle and we had to send it back, but the servers were so sweet and apologetic (they ended up comping my partner's meal). The pancake, it turns out, was one of the best we've ever had, so it was well wait the few tries. The Huevos was really tasty as well--I loved the differing textures of crispy tortillas, runny eggs, and creamy avocados and cotija. Good things come to those who wait, and turns out brunch is one of those things. Devil's Food may be quaint, but it's definitely delish!! read more
