    Coffee fixin's table.
    Craig K.

    Our family had a pleasant coffee experience at this coffee shop yesterday. It was our first time to visit Ground Up. The location was convenient off of S. Kipling & W. Belleview on the SW side of Denver in Littleton, there was enough free parking for this business and strip mall, the shop was nicely decorated on the inside and outside, we were welcomed upon entering, there was a surprising amount of wooden chairs and tables available inside, a few comfy chairs and sitting area near the front window, and a long-table with several bar-stools and power outlets near the front window on the other side, several small tables with chairs outside the shop, no music was playing for some reason, the employee who took our order was friendly & knowledgeable, there was the full menu nicely and clearly displayed on the wall above the front ordering counter (reasonable prices), they had several good, delicious choices for lunch (my burrito was tasty but a bit small, and my family had delicious crepe's), service was solid and friendly, the dining room and restrooms were clean and did not smell at all, lighting was good, not sure if there was free WiFi, they had a cute little table off to the right side of the front counter with half-n-half, sugar, Stevia, stirrers, water, and small cups.

    What a great place to get fresh, made to order, crepes! A friend and I recently visited Ground Up Coffee to try their crepes and drinks. Walking up to the shop, we noticed 2 tables with some chairs underneath 2 oversized umbrellas. While deciding what types of crepes we should try, the savory ground up favorite caught my attention while my friend decided to go with the sweet strawberry & cream. We also got a drink to go with our crepes. Mine was the tradition Thai iced tea; a latte was what my friend chose. While we were waiting for our orders, I noticed the person behind the counter started to make my crepe. First, she poured the flour mixture to make the outer layer, a thinly base to start. As it started to cook, an egg was added and spreads over the mixture. Once that is cooked, she started to add a red sauce, then grounded sausage, bacon, potatoes, and then the cheese. The entire process took about 5 minutes. In the meantime, as she was waiting for the savory crepe to complete, she was preparing the strawberry & cream crepe. The outer shell of the crepe was already made, she cut and added the sweet strawberries, the whipped cream, and the strawberry sauce was drizzled on top of the delectable dessert. We decided to split our crepes so that we can savored the moment, and boy, both crepes were delicious in their own way. Having the saltiness from the ground up favorite, and then sweet strawberry & cream right afterwards was a heavenly eating experience. My Thai iced tea was very good. Not overly sweet, and it hit the spot after eating the crepes. If you are in the area and looking for a uniquely eating experience, I would stop by Ground Up Coffee Cafe for both food and drinks.

    Consistently amazing tiramisu lattes! Been here a few times and have really enjoyed it!

    Pistachio White Mocha & Tiramisu Latte

    My friend just moved to Littleton, so trying some of the new local spots! Today we got two specialty coffees - pistachio white mocha and tiramisu latte. They were both good and something we'd order again. We also felt the price ($14) for 2 medium specialty drinks was reasonable! They have a bunch of drinks, treats, and other food items we'll have to return to try.

    Sausage breakfast burrito (with hot sauce)
    Alexandra E.

    My daughter and I stopped in on a Saturday on the way to gymnastics. The service is incredibly friendly and the community engagement is warm like a small mountain town vibe. I enjoyed the sausage breakfast burrito and iced vanilla latte. The IVL reminded me of the consistency of a boba tea drink at first which was a new take on an IVL and I quite enjoyed it. My daughter loved the cake pops and especially the sprinkles atop her iced vanilla steamer. A sweet surprise!

    Peach Cobbler Crepe and Iced Almond Milk Tiramisu Latte
    Siobhan P.

    Saturday mid morning stop for a crepe and it didn't disappoint. Busy but not bad, this place sits right next to a Safeway and has 4 small tables out front but a good amount inside. The peach cobbler crepe was fantastic, sweet but not over done. The latte was mild and perfect. Next time a savory crepe is for sure calling my name and you can make your own or choose from their recommended offerings. They have chai, matcha and lemonades as well.

    I love finding new coffee spots. Especially ones that offer such a variety, and from my understanding most, if not everything is made in house. Whether you like iced or hot, or whether you have a sweet or savory tooth, they really have something for everyone. Friendly staff! And to my surprise they have a bunch of tables for people to work, study or just savor their purchase! I have my eye on a few drinks, so I'll definitely be coming again!

    This is a cozy coffee shop that offers a variety of food and drinks. They have a few unique cakes that I will have to come back to try. The latte was very good and the Lox Crepes were delicious!! It wasn't as crowded when I was there so the food and drink came out fast. Highly recommend!

    Matcha Crepe Cake

    I love this little place. Always delicious drinks and food with a cute little environment. Not to mention that I'm always greeted with friendly and fast service. I love showing my friends to this sweet cafe. Love the crepes and matcha!

    Brown sugar iced shaken espresso

    The absolute best coffee shop around! It's the most consistent and everyone is so friendly. The homemade crepes are amazing and they have so many pastry choices. The vibe is cozy and welcoming. This is my favorite coffee shop in town!

    Best mocha in town!

    It's a convenient location! I can get groceries from Safeway, and then I get a cup of coffee at Ground Up. Nice, clean coffee shop.

I really liked hanging out here and the coffee was pretty good. I had a cappuccino, my go-to drink order to test out a coffee spot. I heard a lot of delicious specialty drinks called out from the bar while I was there that I will try next time! The coffee "for here" came out in a ceramic mug, which I appreciate. Staff was friendly. The vibes are good here, it was cozy and comfortable, with book shelves, games, and a cool design. I went on a Saturday early evening and the place was packed with folks - most were working/studying/reading, but I saw a few tables playing games and socializing. You get 2 hours of free WiFi access while you enjoy your beverage. I would definitely come back here to spend time if I'm in the area. Totally going to prioritize checking out the other area Bardo coffee spots too!

The pistachio in it was so unique and stood out. I got the caramel latte for my boyfriend which was also exactly the way it should be. They have lots of seating and outlets and it's well-lit, not too loud, with a large book shelf and assortment of board games. Theres couches as well with lower coffee-tables and overall very comfortable I didn't try any pastries this time but can't wait to come back!
