Cool little coffee roaster. There's a window where you can watch them roasting which brings a cool vide mixed with the greenery and artwork on the walls. I had a vanilla latte and a bacon breakfast burrito and it was great! The latte wasn't too sweet which I appreciate and burrito came with a chipotle crema that was Definitely give it a try if you're in the area! read more

Holy mackerel, Middle State Coffee is good! From the flavor to the customer service - this coffee shop gets a 5/5 for me. I went in wanting to get a seasonal drink and was torn between the miso cardamom and pumpkin spice. The barista was super helpful and actually let me smell the different syrups to figure out what I wanted. I went with the miso cardamom and it tasted like banana bread! It was so very good! I'm still dreaming about it. They make their syrups in house and they're definitely known for having unique seasonal flavor combinations. There is some seating inside with plugs available to work on a laptop, and it wasn't too busy on a Monday afternoon. They roast their coffee and house so the interior smells incredible! Natural wine is available for purchase. They have breakfast burritos, seasonal waffles, pastries, and cereal. This is a good spot to grab a light breakfast and coffee. I'll certainly be back! read more

Best coffee shop in Denver. The espresso and drip are great, and it's a trendy spot too

The always happening Highland neighborhood is a favorite of Denver tourists and locals like me. And it's so ever changing when it comes to food and drinking in mind. New stores continue to pop up with the blink of an eye. And it's been hard to catch up with it. Not sure when this shop opened its doors but it sure didn't escape my notice when I was in the neighborhood for a facial earlier today. This place is petite. I tend to like this size of a store more than larger counterparts to be frank. I guess I like the personableness that makes me feel like I can be cozied up with my drink so I can do some pondering. There are some seatings available just outside of it along the store as well. The lady barista was friendly to me. She complimented my hair to start with and asked me if I was visiting (as I was taking a lot of photos; I guess I looked like a tourist!!) The size of the menu matches with the size of the store. I've been liking simple more than anything lately. Since I ordered a latte, she showed me the flavor add-ons I can do to my drink. Since I don't like overly sweet drinks I asked her to go easy on the flavor (Rosemary Vanilla to be exact). She did exactly just that by putting a hint of it. The flavor was truly subtle which I could barely taste it. This was perfect for me. Let's not forget to mention about the wines they serve here. Per the signage outside, their coffee is radical and their wines are magical. Can't wait to find out about the wine part soon. This was a nice discovery. I might start a membership at the facial place so if I do that then I'll be able to stop at this coffee shop after my appointment. This is a win win for me!! read more

Quaint coffee shop with fresh ground espresso. For a $5 affogato, say no more. They accidentally made me a regular espresso instead of decaf but caught it quickly and corrected. read more

Middle State Coffee - Waffle - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Big fan of Middle State! The coffee is delicious and they've got some unique flavors made in-house. Service is lovely and the spot itself is as unique as their flavors. Some beautifully cared for plants. Good variety of seating, though not a ton of tables with outlet access, so be sure to get there before peak times if you're needing to charge up a laptop. No big issue parking, either. I'd be happy to come back. read more

This is the slowest coffee shop I've ever been to. 15 minutes for one drink. They need one more person working behind the counter, it's obnoxious. Never again! read more

Hip little coffee shop. Hung out with my kids and got my caffeine fix. Everything was decent. Cornbread waffle had a slight raw flour/dough taste. But the spicy jam was awesome. Veggie burrito is pretty much cheese and potatoes, didn't taste actual veggies. Coffee was good and matcha lemonade was not obviously artificial tasting but could use sweetener, but I felt healthier drinking it. My biggest annoyance is the tip request. I agree that there is a service. Tuổi order at a counter... they bring it to you, most people return their cups and plates to the bus bucket themselves. You also get your own water. So the tip request was 18, 20, 22%... that is what I give when I'm at a fine dine restaurant when I'm truly being served for hours. Not a coffee shop. Tip culture in America is ridiculous these days. Chick Fil-A has way better service and friendlier and doesn't ask for tip. read more

Space is a little small and tight. Not my first pick to go to since 3/5 times so far the coffee has been extremely bitter like the shot sat too long. Other than that not a bad place to go if you're looking to try something new read more

Middle State Coffee - Cappuccino - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I have half written reviews waiting to be posted ,but I had to write a review for this place immediately. I honestly know nothing about coffee ,but I can only judge the drinks by what I enjoy. This place has high reviews on Google and yelp and usually when that happens (rarely),it means you gotta try it. As soon as you step in, it's industrial and quaint. It's not just one big open space. There's a high top counter and then 2 sections of normal tables to sit at too. There's a straight forward menu(that's how you know they're serious about coffee). I got a decaf latte and my husband got a vanilla espresso shake?? Yes, a shake. The barista making the drinks was calculative and precise. We both decided to try the shake first and o,my heavenly coffee. It was creamy and silky smooth. It was the perfect amount of cold and the coffee flavor wasn't burnt or bitter. I have never had such a smooth shake before. Get it. The decaf latte was also highly satisfying with the right amount of sweet and ice. If we lived closer we'd be coffee poor. I'll definitely be recommending this spot to people. read more

I'm a big fan of middle state coffee...served at other cafes...I have never been to their roastery store. I loved the layout of this coffeeshop, including the water top I have added a picture of (not only is it a cool set up, but having water available at coffeeshops is essential in my opinion.) Tough to rate a place after just one visit, but here's the breakdown of my rating: -staff was great -again, loved the store itself -masks enforced -cold brew was great...nice and strong! -my cortado just left a little something to be desired: I got a single origin, and it seemed unextracted. It was fine, just didn't get much sweetness, any of the flavors in the description, or much nuance at all. I have pretty good confidence that everything is outstanding there, and there is enough "extra credit" in the cold brew to make up for the cortado coming in at a B-. Worth noting that SOME of the drinks are very expensive, including drip coffee. read more

Had a bit of time to kill between meetings & decided a chai was in order. It was later in the afternoon & this place was pretty quiet. The barista was quick and friendly! Definitely not a comfy cozy coffee shop to hang at. It's a modern, wood & metal feel you typically see 'round these parts. It had a few small laptop sized tables, simple enough to take a quick zoom meeting. read more

Middle State truly holds their own as one of the best coffee shops in Denver. Their selection of drinks is thoughtfully curated, and the hospitable staff preps them with care, professionalism, and love.

Middle State Coffee was the perfect mid day pick me up! I had just finished lunch with a friend nearby and decided why not try Middle State. I got my usual, iced chai latte and it was perfection. Sweet, spicy, and smooth. Great hip interior and super friendly staff. If I happen to be in that part of town again I'd definitely go back and try one of their coffee shakes I've seen others raving about! read more

One of the quality coffee roasters hidden away in Denver with some of the best beans and brews around. Solid breakfast pastries and even more incredible breakfast burritos - with a vegan options for those who are. Take some beans home, maybe some instant coffee in the origin of your choice but only after enjoying a fresh cup in the cafe. Great space, chill vibes, good people. read more

excellent coffee shop with in-house roasting. they supply beans for quite a few shops around denver. their location is a little of an industrial neighborhood, but it's close and convenient to get off and on I-25 when traveling. great place to sit and visit, or work. my favorite drink is the rosemary vanilla latte with oat milk. they always have an interesting seasonal offering like lavender or maple. their matcha lattes are yummy. the interior's modern and creative. the baristas are very nice and good at what they do. read more

If you want solid third wave coffee in Denver, this is the place. All the times I've been here, it's been very low key but the beans make a singing cappuccino. They also have a selection of rotating drinks that have always come through. Since it's a little off the beaten path, every time I've come to work on things it hasn't gotten too busy. read more

The drinks and food were good. A nice spot for a date. Nice plants and artwork around. The bathroom had nice artwork too and good soap.

One of my favorite coffee shops in Denver! Middle State really knows what they are doing and brews some insanely tasty coffee. I don't know a lot about coffee, but I could tell after one sip that Middle State's coffee beans were top quality. The interior has an impressively aesthetically pleasing industrial-meets-greenhouse-chic vibe, packed with moss, plants, and trendy art. I stopped in during COVID while there were restrictions on dine-in, but I could otherwise easily see spending a whole day here getting some work done and people watching! read more

This place has a very industrial interior with pipes hanging out everywhere- very unfinished look. It's a small place with lots of nooks with a small variety of bar tops and tables. There's parking on the side streets. I got the snickerdoodle coffee ($5). It was very tasty - I would go back to try more of their flavored coffees! read more

They've outdone themselves. Middle State already makes the coffee I enjoy at some of Denver's best coffee shops. With the cafe at their roasting facility, they've hit a hipster coffee home run. The stark decor features some cool green walls of moss, a turntable with records, lots of green plants, and some funky old industrial furniture pieces mixed in with the plywood-looking benches. The coffee counter serves great pastries as well as made-to-order waffles. And delicious coffee of course. The baristas know what they're doing. Our espresso drinks were excellent. I expect things to evolve at this new joint, but for now they'll bring you your drink. So grab a seat and get comfy. Parking out front was easy on a weekday morning. Staff was welcoming and eager to chat about their craft. This will surely make it onto my coffee shop rotation. read more

So my boyfriend roasts coffee and once roasted a batch of Ethiopian natural process beans. It was AMAZING and literally tasted like chocolate covered strawberries. I've been on the hunt for that impressive fruit-forward taste for months. Why am I telling you this? I found it at Middle State!! I was visiting Colorado to do some camping and we stopped by for cappuccinos. The space inside was clean and well decorated. Their merch was super cute (I definitely regret not buying one of their cute fanny packs). I picked up a bag of their Columbia Medina Espejo beans and was totally blown away when I tried it. It legit tastes like a chocolate covered cherry! Although I'm located in California, I will definitely be placing orders online :) P.S. Come to the Bay, please! read more
